Mass DTA already makes us do this every 6 months. The thought of increasing the already difficult means testing on us is just so demoralizing. Not demoralizing enough for my disabled ass to get a "normal" job or two tho. But nice try.
USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins plans to make all SNAP recipients reapply and prove "that they literally are vulnerable and they can’t survive without it.”

The 'genuinely disabled'

The 'literally vulnerable'

They keep moving the goalposts.

They were never going to fund SNAP. It's eugenics:
Trump administration will require SNAP participants to reapply for benefits
Food aid recipients are already required to recertify their information regularly. But the move is part of USDA chief Brooke Rollins’ effort to overhaul the program.

New York AG James said she's received complaints of stores in her state refusing EBT cards and has already sent out several cease and desist letters. Stores are not allowed to refuse SNAP benefits. If this happens to you, call the AG's hotline to report at 1-800-771-7755.

When SNAP benefits get partially or fully restored, please do not cancel any monetary or food donations you are making to local food banks. People are still going to need a lot of support.

Also Schumer and Jeffries were totally successful this time in moving the goalposts from "why are Democrats letting Trump destroy the United States of America" to "why are Democrats letting Trump destroy ACA subsidies".

And people say Schumer is bad at politics

The false hope people have when they hear SNAP will be paid may very well be part of the plan

I think the Regime enjoys toying with people

When the general public hears SNAP will be paid, donations dry up

When Trump appeals to get permission NOT to pay? We have to start the fight all over again.

THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT, @trahan.house.gov.

Fitchburg is in Lori Trahan's district. And Lori Trahan has done NOTHING to resist this.

Parents being kidnapped. Babies being put in danger. All while Lori Trahan does NOTHING.

She must lose her seat.

Police departments that say they're not cooperating with ICE are sure working hard to make things easier for agents

(Also, *every* one of these ICE arrests is "hostile")

BREAKING: A federal judge ordered Trump to get full SNAP benefits out by tomorrow.

The judge made clear Trump broke the law by *choosing* to force kids to go hungry for "political reasons."

"Children are immediately at risk of going hungry. This should never happen in America."

It will be very funny if nobody gets banned for insulting one of the main architects of modern conservatism when dozens of people did for defaming America's 38th most popular podcaster. It'll really show where postmodern conservatism is at as a movement.

A trick Mamdani has mastered is seeming positive even when attacking Cuomo by having it come out of nowhere.
