I know you’re a bodybuilder, but use your noggin this time. Nearly half of those who receive food stamps work. Of the rest, most are over 65 or disabled. Wages are too low for tens of millions, and Social Security isn’t enough for many elderly.

So, Trump was on Air Force One attacking @aoc.bsky.social AOC and @crockett.house.gov Jasmine Crockett with the "low IQ" dog whistle yet again. I will say this: he hates smart women, especially women of color. And yet more bonus hate because they are lawmakers.

Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in local economic activity. Without SNAP, that will mean a loss of $15 billion to the US economy just in November alone.
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.

Stoermer is right:
Having hope or being in denial are not survival strategies. The constitution means and says what SCOTUS says, not what anyone else thinks it says.
Base strategies on decisions by SCOTUS assholes.
