Snap recipients aren’t the problem. Corporations sacrificing employees and the larger economy on the altar of shareholder greed is the problem.

It’s quite something seeing all these folks cheering on the suspension of SNAP benefits as of 11/1. These are kids we’re talking about folks. Feeding them. They don’t vote.

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I’m thinking the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise was getting stale so they thought a spinoff with radioactive shrimp at Walmart was in order. Tell me I’m wrong.

If you wanted to jettison the constitution in support of your own kingship, you would start with constitutional protections for noncitizens. Fly that test balloon and see how far it goes. If it goes far, you move on to peeling back the next constitutional protection.

While the Chinese government trolling MAGA with these AI vids is certainly entertaining, it’s a travesty that America is so divided that we elected folks who would give the Chinese all the material in the world with which to work.

Human nature is about preservation. None of this sell off is surprising. Everyone knows this was the eventuality of the haphazard tariff rollout. Which is why purposeful intent can’t be ignored. Americans are getting screwed so that other Americans can get richer, yet again.

Listening to Agriculture Sec Rollins completely flail on this interview with Jake Tapper on State of the Union…as a partisan it brings a chuckle, but as an American it’s so tough to watch. This is the level of folks Trump has hired to run our government.

When you’re in power, you’re in control. You want to help working families out? How about making rich folks pay their fair share then tackle unfair trade.

So I hear the governor in Oklahoma wants to get rid of the forestry department because he got his feelings hurt by his fellow republicans. One party supermajority rule is working out so well..

They left the working class behind in chase of expanded markets and margins. Now they want you to believe it’s working folks who should sacrifice to “make things fair for America”. Never forget, those who have the gold make the rules.

The worst part of this facts only matter if they are your jersey’s color country we live in, is that the jersey matters more than senior government officials putting the lives of military personnel in danger by disclosing war plans on signal. This once would have brought Americans together in anger.
