Even IF Dems were to end the shutdown today, why would we trust GOP to fund SNAP? They've been trying to destroy it for years. They've shown us that that their word is a lie.

The trade deficit was $35.7 billion in 2024--but that misses an important point. Canada’s population is only about a tenth the size of the U.S. If you adjust for that, Canadians buy 7.5× more per person from the U.S. than Americans buy from Canada.
Canada is a pretty good neighboUr to have. 😀
