Trump is fighting in court to NOT provide food to the poorest people in America, including pregnant women, infants, and toddlers.
Donald doesn't love you, he despises you.
The current GOP lie is that theyβre going to replace Obamacare with something better.
Bullshit. In all of the majorities theyβve had since Obamacare passed, theyβve never once tried to replace it.
Theyβve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.
Forests are more than just wood and are important for the water balance. The groundwater beneath a forest is clean, oxygen-rich and excellent for producing drinking water. That is why forests are particularly often also water protection areas. ππΏβοΈπ±π²π³ππ

So the the United States Supreme Court has gone from protecting schoolchildren from racism in 1954 to helping to kill them with malnourishment in 2025? And the arc of history bends towards justice, you say?

Iβd like to posit that itβs not just about Medicaid, SNAP, etc. being the morally βright thing to doβ it is also the most cost-effective, economically beneficial, and productive thing to do.

Minnesota restores full SNAP benefits to families in need

SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS
The SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefit is about $6 per person per day. Households with no income get about $8-$9 a day.
EACH Congressman has a daily limit of $79 for reimbursement of meals and incidental expenses in Washington, D.C.
Weird that they could find a billionaire to give money to the Pentagon but not one to supplement SNAP*

POS who used bankruptcy court six separate times to avoid paying millions to contractors, is now using the Supreme Court to avoid paying SNAP benefits to families with children.
His demise canβt come soon enough.
@atti1711.bsky.social MAGA Congress is absolutely using SNAP as a distraction to push Dems to cave on saving healthcare and Medicaid! Dems cannot cave!

There is nothing in the Constitution that guarantees a right to eat food. So it's hard to understand why the Democrat Party thinks the SNAP issue is a political winner.
