I have a question @thetnholler.bsky.social. Where is trump’s “faith advisor” Paula White? She’s bilked millions out of the poor globally and has been really quiet since he’s started starving children and withholding medicine.

Here is what happens when SNAP shuts down. Millions who are go hungry. They have to chose between food and rent. Millions of seniors starve. Mothers who are nursing or pregnant go hungry. Potentially effecting the birth weight of babies costing billions long term.

There are options but instead “starve them” is the choice. No matter your party, if you are an elected official, this should be an abhorrent choice. If you are pointing fingers and blaming someone else, you are the problem.

Landlords lose rent payments, small grocers lose business, large corporations like Walmart that gets 25% of their business from SNAP, suffer. Layoffs and even closure of small businesses in food desert areas.

Food Banks, already reeling from billions of lost food from USDA (supplied by US farmers who lost those contracts) cannot feed them. Families miss rent because they bought food and face eviction. But the ripple effect continues.
