Who uses SNAP?

My friend, who works, raising 5 kids, husband bailed and won’t pay child support

My neighbor battling cancer and her life-saving meds are so expensive, she chooses between meds or food

My friend who’s a vet and struggles with mental health issues.

Not one of them chose this.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

This was too stupid of a “deal” to have been real. Since when does the party of starvation, disappearing humans, and imploding the national healthcare system keep “deals?”

Never. This IS the art of their dealings.

Complicit or idiocy - they really screwed the whole country.

Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.

Tim Kaine and the others bought the lie that Republicans would negotiate on extending the ACA subsidies. They won’t.

Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

It’s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things we’ve been shouting for months, and longer.

Here’s the truly stupid part:

All these MAGA warriors cheering that SNAP is being cut off because they bought the lie that it’s “waste, fraud, and abuse” don’t get it.

They won’t see a dime, a benefit, or a tax break because SNAP is cut—just more hungry families and weaker local economies.

JUST IN: The U.S. Senate has voted 52–48 to overturn Trump’s 50% tariffs on Brazil. Five Republicans joined Democrats: Susan Collins (ME), Mitch McConnell (KY), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Rand Paul (KY), and Thom Tillis (NC).

The measure is DOA in the House.

This story is insane. A man who posted a meme of Trump saying “we have to get over it” in a discussion about the CK shooting has been in jail for 2 months with a $2M bond. Meanwhile, the man who actually threatened to kill Hakeem Jeffries is out on bail.

Jake Tapper, a weak little coward, won’t stand up against racism after he wrote a bullshit book discouraging a great president without paying attention to dementia asshole that we have now. And why the hell is Stephen Miller’s wife getting any press coverage? She’s a Nazi just like her husband
Ugly. No wonder she married Stephen Miller.

And the non-reaction from @jaketapper.bsky.social is almost more appalling than her racism.

@cnn.com is clearly in a dark place.

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

This is the guy who lied on the stand at a trial in LA, telling the jury he witnessed the defendant assault the ICE officer, when the video showed the ICE officer assault the defendant. The jury took an hour to acquit. He's referred to immigrants as "filth, trash, and scum."
