FACT: In July, Marsha Blackburn voted for the largest cut to SNAP in the history of the program.

Now, 700,000 TN children, seniors & people w/ disabilities are going to miss meals and she’s pretending to care b/c she’s running for Governor.

She thinks your too dumb to remember

Yes. This man would start a nuclear war to avoid being exposed in the a Epstein files.

Because he is a psychopathic maniac that has surrounded himself with extreme psychopathic maniacs.

Federal food assistance known as SNAP benefits will run out on Saturday due to the government shutdown. It will impact more than 40 million Americans, many of them working mothers.
Here are some of the stories they are sharing.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

The very first thing that should happen when the government shuts down is that Congress members and their staff cease to get paid with zero backpay when the government reopens.

Thursday: Target to lay off 1800 corporate jobs
Monday: Amazon to lay off 30,000 corporate jobs
Tuesday: UPS to lay off 48,000 operations and management jobs

You'd think with all these layoffs, CEOs and CFOs and COOs would also be fired. Alas.

First the administration cut food assistance for Americans in need.

Now they’re refusing to use emergency funds for food assistanceβ€”even though their now-deleted shutdown plan said they could.

They have the funding to keep families from going hungry. There’s no excuse.

Back in September, I wasn’t feeling too good. I was going to give notice, because I’m 64 years old and tired of cleaning. One day on LinkedIn, they got 70 applications! It’s not even a great job, no healthcare, some holidays off, and a lot of shitty toilets. Also part time at $16.50 an hour.

UPS just said it cut 48,000 jobs this year.
Here’s why that matters:

πŸ’° The company is making record profits;
πŸ“ˆ Its stock rose after the layoffs.

When a company calls that β€œsavings,” it’s not efficiency β€” it’s putting profits way over people.

Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in commonβ€”Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the listβ€”it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.
