Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
Wanna fix fraud and abuse?
Fix that.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Studies show that when families who receive SNAP benefits have an able bodied adult, 89% of the time this person is employed
Which indicates many corporations don’t pay workers a living wage-and are thus subsidized by SNAP-yet somehow Republicans never mention this when they cry about “socialism”

They’re not acting like they’re in a four-year term.
They’re acting like they’re in an everlasting dictatorship.
Are we all clear on this?

The President of the United States ordered the military to fire on U.S. citizens because he was watching years-old B reel on Fox News, then promised everyone sci-fi medbed cards.
And the cowards and ghouls in the GOP just sit there instead of invoking the 25th & wheeling him out in a straitjacket.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.
I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.
Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Another Kavanaugh stop.
ICE brutally detains U.S. citizen just for filming—knocking her unconscious.
"Agents took her to a side alley, beat her up, then called an ambulance," witness said.
"Then they kidnapped her from the hospital—without a formal discharge—and took her to Downtown LA Detention Center."

The game is rigged good hard working people of modest means continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fuck about you and never will. They count on Americans remaining willfully ignorant. They call it the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.

It turns out that the 'God and Country' MAGA Americans who accuse people like me of being hateful have very little love for the wide, sprawling, disparate community of human beings whose theology and politics do not align completely with their own.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
