Trump throws another extravagant party at Mar-a-Lago while thousands, including government workers, line up at food banks during the shutdownβ while heβs still fighting to block SNAP funding while kids go hungry.
Literally a tale of two Americas.

Trump admin's SNAP appeal brazenly claims obeying a judge to fund food stamps hurts the government worse than starving millions, despite ample reserves for 42 million needy Americans. #FoodInsecurity

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

idk who needs to hear this but the President of the United States of America is APPEALING a judges order forcing him to fully fund SNAP.

Senate Democrats have a common-sense compromise: Letβs extend the ACA enhanced tax credits at the current levels for a year, and start a bipartisan working group to find real, long-term solutions to our countryβs health care crisis.
