About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump

We separate public offices from private actors b/c of the risk of conflicts of interest. The Trump admin has turned this on it's head. They argue that private actors who have a financial stake in a region will be best positioned to make a deal. But what happens if their interests align w a bad deal?
