US census data is carefully anonymized for good reason. Now Republicans want to change that -- and their plan could put the data of every person living in the US at risk.

Trump was able to find $40 billion to bail out Argentina and $300 million for his new ballroom.
Yet he can't find funds to prevent millions of Americans from losing access to healthcare or stop kids from going hungry.
Cruelty is the point.

There's money available to feed poor people. The Trump regime has deleted that fact from a government website, but it's still a fact.
Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.
Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.
