Nobody in this admin knows anything, conveniently. Incompetence is a feature not a bug.

I missed Trump’s lavish Great Gatsby party that he threw last week while he threatened to cut off food assistance to hungry kids during the Republican shutdown.

But I did meet the amazing leadership of Meals on Wheels West, and helped deliver food to constituents today.

So funny!

16 million children are about to go hungry because DC Republicans refuse to fund SNAP.

If they can spend $3 trillion on tax cuts for rich people, they can afford to feed hungry kids.

He's got the "Mirror, Mirror on the wall . . ." lying to him.

*hope* she's able to sue.

Jeffries: "The Trump administration and Mike Johnson are running a pedophile protection program. That's the reason they refuse to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva."

JFC the nerve of these brown shirts. If she was injured from accident and they dragged her out, moving her could cause more damage. What insane maniacs cause an accident and then kidnap the victim? I how she's able to sue the crap out of ICE.

Agreed!

Right, could not stand him as an actor, if 1- dimensional is acting. Was floored he had that much sway over politics which should be more of what most of the people want not whatever elitist influence he has.

Is he doing this on behalf of Argentina in addition for Venezuelan oil? I read about the tensions between Argentina and Venezuela but don't understand the regions geopolitical issues besides election accusations. They are nearly a continent apart with Brazil and couple other countries between them.

2/ I also don't begrudge my tax dollars now helping someone in need, as I said once upon a time I needed help. That's what these programs are there for. A safety net. Shame on any rich corporate fat cats supporting Republicans gutting these programs.

SNAP benefits will restart, but will be half the normal payment and delayed About 1 in 8 U.S. residents get an average of $187 a month per person in the food assistance known as SNAP. For the first time, the Trump administration stopped the payments due at the beginning of th...

This doesn't affect me now, but 36yrs ago I needed such assistance so I understand the gut wrenching insecurity families are experiencing.

Why is it being paid from contingency fund? Where's the normal SNAP $$ allocated by Congress? Unavailable due to shutdown? 1/

Okay but I read completion isn't anticipated until 2029. Why build a ballroom you won't be in office to use? Unless he doesn't plan on leaving. 🤔

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

61 people murdered.

No names.
No accountability.
No justice.

I would pay and take time off work to hear the truth from this man.

I want the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth regardless.

If responding to my comment, I believe I covered illegality of these murders by describing our admin's actions as criminal.

This was on my mind the other day. This admin would rather escalate a drug war by killing *suspected* traffickers in international waters than address reasons our citizens turn to addiction at home and support prevention and recovery.

Regardless,

fuck your Gatsby party, you tone-deaf fuck who thought this would be a good idea?

☝️☝️☝️This would have been the ultimate journalistic smackdown, if we had real journalists @jaketapper.bsky.social

He can't count and he's trusted to lead the Treasury?

Of course not, not only for elitist optics, but certainly not a Gatsby theme as the Gatsby era and novel included racist and white supremacist holdovers bitter from the ending of slavery.

Obama played 333 rounds of golf in 8 years.

Woodrow Wilson played 1200.

Eisenhower 800.

Trump 273 first term, 78 so far this term (on pace for 400+, or more than 25% of his days in office).
