You know I ain't got the time”

If you or anyone you know is hungry today, never forget who's responsible when you vote them out of office. Tell them, "you're fired."
And if you have means to do so, consider a donation to a local food bank to help your neighbors. You might be surprised how much hunger is happening right nearby.

This is what oligarchy looks like:
If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break.
If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry.
Obscene.
