Today's shocking release of emails has me asking whether the shutdown was always just about Republicans protecting Trump from the Epstein Files? And, if so, what does that tell us about the last ten months and the next 3+ years.

As a veteran, I’ve never used the VA.
BUT
I know several veterans who have. Know why?
Because they FUCKING needed it, and that’s the common denominator for every member who uses it.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Corporate profits have hit record highs.
CEOs are paid 280x as much as a typical worker.
We're subsidizing corporations that pay lousy wages by funding food stamps with our taxpayer dollars.
Yet too many focus their ire on the working poor who need help instead of targeting corporate greed.

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
