The state of emergency ain’t gonna provoke itself!
Cruelty is the whole point.
Lol, Bernie just out here droppin truth bombs. Ridic AF that we’re throwing cash at ARG when peeps in our own backyard are starving. Typical T-rump priorities though, right? Keep sticking it to ‚em Bern!
For quick reference, 40 billion would fund SNAP for five months…
This is a very corrupt regime
Surely the plan is to feed the poor with the beef from Argentina
/s
While his tech bros are looking forward to gilded state dinners, they will have a rude awakening because food prioritizes tech, Amazon sales will drop, folks will cut the cable, etc etc.
Honestly, Make Argentina Great Again was not what I thought those hats meant.
I’ve raised my prices due to tariffs so I won’t be on SNAP. Sadly, those that don’t own their business aren’t going to get their wages increase enough to pay for food. Seniors won’t suddenly get more social security.
Trump is evil and the majority of the supreme court is too.
Mango Mussolini needs to support his fellow fascists.
Somehow he talked his friends into donating money to pay servicemen, but paying for food for the poor? Nope, no takers.
Shocking.
MAGA
Make Argentina Great Again.
Looks like an “Arrested Development” character.
Notes to those who blame the democrats for the suspension of snap, funding for SNAP is structured to continue even during shutdowns (through emergency reserves). Those funds are available, the White House has decided that they will not be used for that purpose.
Per the guardian:
“According to a memo seen by Reuters, the [USDA] indicated that it would not draw on emergency reserves to fund food benefits in November.
A statement from the leader of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities said the Trump administration had the opportunity to act sooner to ensure benefits don’t run out.
“It could have, and should have, taken steps weeks ago to be ready to use these funds,” the statement from Sharon Parrott said, as reported by the Hill. “Instead, it may choose not to use them in an effort to gain political advantage” as Republicans seek to exert pressure on Senate Democrats to vote in favor of a spending bill that would reopen the federal government.”
Exactly. Always money for foreign bailouts and billionaires, never for hungry families at home. Sanders hit the nail on the head with this one.
Trump had to get a kickback from the $40 billion,that’s the only reason he is defending giving Argentina the bailout.
Sign the bill Bernie. YOU can save EBT AND blame the repubs for the health insurance. That’s a gimme, everyone knows the REpubs have fought obamacare for years.
MAGA: Make Argentina Great Again
Trump scolded a reporter for asking questions about the Argentina bailout and said “Those people are dying.”
Even if he was, as many claim, speaking metaphorically there, he’s all too willing to let his own citizens literally starve.
the magas are basically comic book villains now. They’re using civilian hostages to try and get the democrats to pass their shitty bill
Man, I saw people cheering this guy on for months for his supposed successful austerity measures.
Looks like he hasn’t run out of someone else’s money yet.
MAGA isn’t even talking about it so that’s how I know they are furious as well. There is a Reddit Conservative sub that now uses Kirk’s photo and they won’t let anyone even broach a subject around Trump that your average Joe and Joan would find disgusting and repulsive no matter how immature or weird it is, and that it comes from our President that they voted for.
Wealthy pedos – 2, children – 0
The cruelty is the point.
Conservatism is a mental illness.
Cruelty is the point
Cool. More words that don’t do anything
MAGA are nothing but CRINOs. Christian Republicans In Name Only!!!
Not only do they worship a false idol (the Cheeto-in-chief), they refuse to help out their fellow man. Can an entire sect of the Republican Party ( the MAGAts themselves) be considered as the antichrist as a whole?? I mean there is nothing more UnAmerican and UnChristian than what they are doing now. We need to call them out for what they are.
Trumps supporters are fine with this. I’ve been really surprised the past couple of days how many people I’ve seen on Reddit straight up say they’re okay with this because they don’t want their tax dollars going toward ACA subsidies or “lazy” SNAP recipients. I am ashamed to share this country with people like that.
Never forget how quickly our systems allowed our country to be sold for parts when they drag their feet to restore to us what’s been stolen. The system can move extremely fast when it’s properly motivated, it seems
