I am SO SICK of Trump and his MAGA losers vilifying SNAP recipients

The people that get SNAP are generally hardworking Americans that aren’t paid nearly enough by companies like Amazon and Walmart

And THESE are the people whose benefits they eliminate

While giving billionaires more tax breaks

Who uses SNAP?

My friend, who works, raising 5 kids, husband bailed and won’t pay child support

My neighbor battling cancer and her life-saving meds are so expensive, she chooses between meds or food

My friend who’s a vet and struggles with mental health issues.

Not one of them chose this.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.

This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

She nails where so many of us are right now.

It passed
Now on to the House
The infuriating 8 voted

THEY GOT NOTHING
THEY CAVED FOR NOTHING

A deep pit in my heart and gut
They caved
For nothing

Schumer must go

Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.

Tim Kaine and the others bought the lie that Republicans would negotiate on extending the ACA subsidies. They won’t.

Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

This was too stupid of a “deal” to have been real. Since when does the party of starvation, disappearing humans, and imploding the national healthcare system keep “deals?”

Never. This IS the art of their dealings.

Complicit or idiocy - they really screwed the whole country.

Just received a “help me sleep better” e-mail from @kaine.senate.gov

Tim we won’t help you sleep, but TY for admitting what we already knew-you’re weak

You rich F#€ks could’ve walked the talk about billionaires & donated food & $ to help cover bills & gas like we did

But no, you bent the knee

Nothing they do ever impacts their health or care. Must be nice to live in that level of an ivory tower.

It's disgraceful! I regret donating to them, making calls for them, writing postcards for them. They are destroyers of democracy.

These 7 Dems, and independent, Angus King are terrible!

They gave all other Dems a bad name!

It's unfair to those who didn't acquiesce that these losers screwed us!

These 8 “couldn’t give a F#€k$” don’t care that all we wanted, needed, was a year of peaceful sleep, not to worry that a trip to the ER, medical bills, or unexpected diagnosis would bankrupt us.

Why don’t they give a F#€k?

Because they have Rolls Royce Health Care Plans!

Trump has just issued pardons to Michigan’s fake electors, Mark Meadows, Kenneth Chesebro, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, , and others who tried to overthrow the 2020 election — per pardon attorney Ed Martin.

The ACA isn’t a talking point—it’s life and death. And 8 Senate Democrats chose politics over people. The anger is real. The disappointment is deep. You failed the ones you swore to protect. 📞 (202) 224-3121

Come on! We know members of the Senate are “free agents,” but the fact is Schumer didn’t hold his caucus together & isn’t doing his job as Leader

We’re supposed to believe it’s a coincidence that none of the Dems who voted yes on the CR have anything to lose in 2026?

@schumer.senate.gov STEP DOWN!

🚨 The shutdown isn’t over. The Senate vote was a procedural step, not a deal. Nothing is reopening. Nothing is fixed. Eight Democrats helped move an old GOP bill while families go unpaid and SNAP stays frozen.

Flood the lines. Call your Senators.

Think about if it were your child suffering through this & no one was speaking out and sharing to set off alarm bells so people of conscience act to call lawmakers at 202-224-3121 or save & share the video.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Beware of incorrect memes attacking some Senators who voted NO, including Gary Peters (MI) & Brian Schatz (HI). They often exclude Tim Kaine (VA) who did vote YES.

These are the 8 people who voted YES. No Vote Schumer is to blame, too, for allowing it. Let's spank or thank the correct Senators!

It is going to take a MOVEMENT. No one should pay any insurance premiums or out-of-pocket healthcare expenses until they implement #MedicareForAll. The national cost savings per annum for this would be more than $450Billlion. And the quality of care would improve precipitously. WE NEED CHANGE.

Pardoning your co-conspirators to own the libs!

Most of their charges are state charges, so this doesn’t actually help them. It’s gross, but it doesn’t really move the needle.

We had all the momentum

•The American people were blaming Republicans

•A landslide Democratic victory

•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting
