The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
Itβs corporate greed. Itβs an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

A tweet from Robert Reich states:
βThe richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?β
The oligarchy wants full control of what we watch and read.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.
A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.
Iβm tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

πΊπΈ No Kings follows the American tradition of peaceful protest.
People are using their First Amendment rights to speak out against the Trump regime's anti-freedom.

Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.

The rule that the Speaker of the House has sole discretion as to when members of Congress are sworn-in to office is obviously flawed AF.
Once election results are recognized and certified, any active judge should be allowed to swear representatives into office.

ZERO arrests at No Kings in NYC. (And the NYPD isnβt notorious for being sympathetic with people anti-Trump.)
This proves what shameless liars Speaker Mike Johnson & Karoline Leavitt are to slander the participants as violent anarchists.

50+: Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.
~130: Agents also can arrest U.S. citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.
~20: Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
When the Supreme Court recently allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldnβt be concerned because agents will βpromptly let the individual go.β
For these Americans, that wasnβt true: https://propub.li/47aawMD
