The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

That’s great and I’m so glad you were able to get the help you need. But I still think abortion would be worthy and vital even if its only function was to allow women to refuse motherhood altogether.

“You can win elections by tacking to the middle; lots of people have. But you can also win elections by staking a moral position and convincing people to agree with you. You can earn support by demonstrating what is important to you instead of just being determined to nod along with what you hear.”

Vance: "There's a lot of emergency healthcare at hospitals provided to illegal aliens. That was funded by the federal govt. We turned off that funding because of course we want citizens to benefit from those hospital services, not to be taxed & then have those hospital services go to illegal aliens"

Imagine spending millions of taxpayer dollars and distrupting the global OPTEMPO just so you can brag to everyone about what a big boy PT stud you are
Hegseth: "It all starts with physical fitness and appearance. If the secretary of war can do regular hard PT, so can every member of our joint force. Frankly, it's tiring to look out at combat formations and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals."

The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.
Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.
