State Senator Mallory McMorrow is calling out: the Trump administration for deleting vital language in the (SNAP) program which could mean people going hungry while policy gets swept under the rug. These benefits were already paid for by taxpayers!

Eric Swalwell is exactly right! He says Trump’s getting $230 million from the DOJ and cashing in at his own ballroom while your grocery bill keeps climbing. He promised prices would go down. He lied.

Every state in the US has SNAP benefit recipients, every 1 of said states should be suing this administration to release the 6Billion in reserves for SNAP for this exact reason, the USDA is dead wrong in not following the laws, they’re in place for this exact reason, damn shame they don’t care

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is “abusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

Dr Oz says healthcare premiums will only increase $13 and it’s no big deal

Premiums will increase much more than that

It’s interesting that $13 is “no big deal” when people are screaming that their tax dollars shouldn’t go towards SNAP

You know how much the average taxpayer pays for SNAP? $36.

Ah yes …nothing says “stable leadership” like calling mild criticism treason.

Chuck Schumer saying your trip was “a dud” isn’t treason, it’s free speech you know, that thing presidents swear to defend.

Worked really hard, 24/7, took in Trillions of Dollars, and Chuck Schumer said trip was "a total dud," even though he knows it was a spectacular success. Words like that are almost treasonous!!!
