Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Thank you. This dangerous inaccuracy has been infuriating me.

They did this same shit to hard working Southern Louisiana people who are dying in droves from Big Gas and Oil pollution. They can only get away with this because they grease the palms of the politicians, whose families live in gentrified communities.

So sorry for your loss, Marc. He was beautiful, and I'm sure the best boy ever.

Who cares? You voted to confirm Trump's picks and signed your name on their agendas.

A lot of people have called you out, but you never respond or offer even a pathetic excuse.

Next thing you share should be written by you and titled "Trump's Agents, Why I Approve "

You are in no position to scold anyone on what Congress or Trump will/can do. They shouldn't have been able to do a lot of things, yet here we are. You personally continue to confirm his nominations, so all this has your name on it too.

Every time you had a chance to resist, you failed. WTAF Amy

Support mothers and every other citizen by not confirming Trump nominations that endanger mothers' health and way of life. You're grandstanding for money while leaving actual mothers and their children to suffer unrepresented.

So will you finally answer why you've voted to confirm his agents and their agendas? You approved his picks, so please explain your logic in complaining about him online while failing to resist him from your actual seat of power.

I am extremely concerned that you keep voting to confirm his agents and agendas, and then acting concerned like you didn't sign off on it.

So, are you going to stop voting to confirm his henchmen? Seems insincere otherwise.

But then you still voted to confirm his agents and their agendas...

Convince us you're not prioritizing payoffs over people, because that's what it looks like.

So again, stop voting to confirm the people who destroy our institutions. It's weird to see you complaining but still voting for his agents and their agendas.

So you will stop voting to confirm his agents and their agendas?

We are disgusted to see your confirmation of his destruction. Stop approving his plans and resist him at every single opportunity.

If you can't even vote against him, you might as well be for him.

Why stand for twenty five hours just to fall when it actually matters? Did you even believe your own speech? What part made you choose to support Trump's agents and their agendas?

Which civil rights leader would be proud of you for putting your name on fascism?

Cool story, but you're still voting for Trump's picks who will do everything they can to steal food and resources from your communities and every other community they can exploit.

Resist him. Every vote.

Stop supporting his agents and agendas of destruction. History is watching.

Stop voting to confirm Trump's picks. You are there to oppose him, not sign off on his plans and let him claim bipartisanship. Don't let us see your name in his column ever.

That is so awesome!! I'm very excited for you! πŸ––πŸ˜ŽπŸ€Ÿ. Please consider that you are allowing them to try to find someone who will be happier and more fulfilled by that job. Like the crabs who leave shells that don't fit for other different sized crabs. Hope your new shell is an amazing fitβ€οΈπŸ€©πŸŽ‰

Definitely seems unfair. You deserve all the happiness. Unfortunately, even the dark-hearted money bags seem relentlessly unhappy, so that probably wouldn't work either, and you'd be forced to torture those "beneath" you for pale joy. Small comforts, I guess. 😭😭 Sorry everything sucks.

He's a bigot. Dems are grossly studied at being the Lesser of 2 Evils. They assume they'll get every minority's vote, not on merit, but because the GOP is a bit more bigoted. So once again they're happy to abandon Trans people, because the numbers are small, and it's not likely they'll vote red.

That describes the white christian view of god and his requirements. They believe they were made in his image, and deserve the same.

Pretty sure telling people what they should say ("try saying") is the same as saying what they should do (you should be doing") You're also attempting to micromanage people's words and tone. You could have followed your own advice.

Yup he sucks. Just curious why I keep seeing you standing and smiling at Trump's desk, or sitting happily next to Vance, etc. I keep seeing you in such close proximity, and if I didn't recognize you, I'd think you were a Republican supporter. What is going on with these optics?

A lot of Republicans didn't exactly endorse Trump at first either. They held their noses, but they still voted for him. Look where that got us. Yet you did the same shameful thing and expect it to make sense. You didn't represent federal workers, you consented to him grabbing our collective p*ssy

YES is YES You consented to everything that happens. You conflated the issue and confused causation with correlation. Gov is already being shut down/ jobs lost but now you're complicit. You caved to a terrorist and no one can trust you but Trump. He's proud of you, how do you stand yourself? Resign
