“If we lost the majority in the house... they will try to end the Trump administration. He won't have 4 years, he'll have only 2–because they will move to impeach him, probably on the first day of the new Congress… and they will try to systematically unwind all [our fascist] reforms.”

Sounds great!

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
