Bingo. Corporate welfare is the real welfare you should be talking about.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

A tweet from Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) says:
โ€œYou literally fought in court to strip families of food assistance.โ€
Heโ€™s replying to Acyn (@Acyn), who shared a video of Trump speaking at the White House with the caption:
โ€œTrump: The bible tells us that one of the measures of any society is how it cares for vulnerable children and orphansโ€”so important and so big in the bible.โ€
Below the tweet is a Fox News screenshot showing Trump at a podium, speaking during a live address. The chyron reads:

NEVER FORGET: The GOP House Congress got a VACATION for 2 months, while federal workers got $0 paychecks and 42M Americans didnโ€™t get their SNAP.

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."

ICE is still being paid.
Congress is still being paid.

Private jets are still being bought.

The White House is still being renovated.

In the most prosperous country in the history of the world...

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? ๐Ÿคจ

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Donโ€™t forget this.
