Federal minimum wage is 7.25. Multiply that by 40. That’s $1,160 a month. After basics like rent and transport - how much is left for food?

SNAP helps people in need, because thanks to unwillingness to get millionaires and billionaires to pay their fair share - Americans are literally left hungry.

SNAP exists because politicians take campaign contributions from large corporations in exchange for letting those corporations pay a poverty wage so low that it must be subsidized with taxpayer money, paid by middle class workers barely getting by—all so 700 billionaires can have a few extra billion

Yup tariffs are unnecessary taxes… on us
This is the Canada ad Trump lost his mind over. Shocker, he’s lying—it is Reagan’s real voice.

He’s now cutting off trade with Canada because he’s scared it could mess with the Supreme Court case over his “reciprocal” tariffs.

Same! I’ll be sharing this idea w friends and family
Smart and helpful!
Oh, he’s cutting snap benefits? I guess I’ll be taking all that $ I was going to spend on gifts and donate it to my local food bank. We don’t need more stuff but kids do need to eat.

I told my friends & fam today and EVERYONE was on board!

I call Djt the “make believe” president. Whatever he says he does, his fans believe. Facts don’t matter. For them, he’s never wrong, even as he fails again and again.

Othering and fear-mongering 101
It remains absurdly easy to scare the simpleminded with nothingburgers. This was easy in Rome, stays easy in this day. Conservatives are mentally retarded by and large. Create a diffuse image of perceived ickyness and the dummies will start yelling and hollaring.

"You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned from dangerous chemicals. You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing.
There's no both sides to this; Republicans are actively voting against working class interests."

The Texas State Board of Education adopted a new Bible-infused curriculum for elementary school students.

The new lessons elevate Christianity over the other major world religions.

This curriculum is un-constitutional, un-American, and deeply un-Christian.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.
