Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) actually told the press that Democrats would be the ones hurt most by losing SNAP.

To be fair, since he lives in Florida instead of the state he represents, maybe he doesn’t realize 752,000 Alabamians rely on SNAP—14.6% of the state’s population.

Many will say this is wrong and claim Biden went after Trump. What those people are missing is Trump actually did crimes.

Happy Un-Halloween 🎃👻🎃

This is the 1st time in my entire life on this earth; I've never seen one kid come to the door.😭

Not a one! My friend & her kids went to a typical busy neighborhood, barley anyone is out.

This is what happens, when you're being hunted down, on your own homeland.

So sad.
