CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Never in the history of the SNAP program - including during government shutdowns - has SNAP funding ever been suspended or only partially funded.
While some funding is better than none, the Trump Administration has the means to FULLY fund this program and is CHOOSING not to. It's reprehensible.

So many ways that we subsidize billionaires...
A 2020 study found that Amazon—which shares owner Jeff Bezos with The Washington Post—is one of the largest employers of people on SNAP.
As SNAP funds froze, mayors and governors have pledged to supplement the missing federal assistance, while federal judges ruled Friday that the Trump administration should use contingency funds to keep food aid running despite the government shutdown.

The federal government has the money to continue funding SNAP benefits — they’re choosing to suspend it and harm millions of families across the country already struggling to make ends meet.
I’m leading a lawsuit against the Trump Administration to release these funds immediately.

That time when the Declaration of Independence grievances became relevant in 2025. “He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures".
As Trump tightens his grip on the DC police and escalates his deployment of the National Guard there, it's probably worth noting that an internal Department of Homeland Security memo says operations like the one in LA may be needed "for years to come."
