Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

I didn't see nothin'

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

President Orange Julius Caesar and his ilk claim that guns are a God given right but don’t feel that food is a God given right. They claim to care about babies but don’t care if they go hungry when they become children.

The current homepage of USDA. This is deeply and profoundly fucked up. And illegal. People need to go to jail.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Amazon just 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.

This is such a great callout…

Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?

If not, you’re at the wrong church.

Washington Post headline White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump's ballroom The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn't 'interfere' with the existing White House structure. [photo is a bulldozer literally ripping off part of the White House]

trump lie number 39292948272920: "It won't interfere with the current building. It won't be. It'll be near it but not touching it - and pays total respect to the existing building, which I'm the biggest fan of," Trump said during an executive order signing in July. "It's my favorite. It's my favorite place. I love it."

there is no better visual metaphor for this era

A quote from John Lennon that says “ when it gets down to having to use then you are playing the system’s game The establishment will irritate you - pull your beard, flick your face - to make you fight. because once they’ve got you violent, then they know how to handle you the only thing they don’t know how to handle is non-violence and humor.

Remember the Rutgers professor who fled the US after being labeled as an Antifa leader and receiving threats to his entire family?

He provided a great explanation of what Antifa is and isn't.

Oh and he absolutely nailed the "why" the regime is taking this route.

I can't imagine what it must feel like to know you voted for this mess and you have to sit back and pretend like it is all okay and that you actually wanted to kidnap people off the streets, remove DOE special education, SNAP benefits, healthcare and welcomed in fascism.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
