Your daily reminder that Trump absolutely can fund SNAP through contingency funds.

He absolutely can prevent 42 million Americans — including 20 million children — from going hungry next month.

He is choosing not to. Don’t let him lie his way out of this.

FACT: In July, Marsha Blackburn voted for the largest cut to SNAP in the history of the program.

Now, 700,000 TN children, seniors & people w/ disabilities are going to miss meals and she’s pretending to care b/c she’s running for Governor.

She thinks your too dumb to remember

Private equity gave $10M to Trump's inauguration. He gave them greater access to Americans' 401(k)s.

DuPont and Dow Chemical gave $750K. Trump exempted them from an air pollution rule.

Intuit gave $1M. Trump killed the IRS Direct File Program.

Everything is for sale.

One fact to add: SNAP benefits have been maintained in every previous shutdown. This is a choice they have made, not an inevitability.

58 billionaire spenders have spent over $18.4M in the NYC mayoral race to boost Cuomo and attack Zohran Mamdani.

Why are they so scared of Zohran?

Because they know he will end their unchecked power over working people and build a city that works for the working class.

Retired couple (teacher & union carpenter) on ACA premiums skyrocketing — from $443/month to $2,224/month: “It's like buying another house and trying to pay for two houses at the same time… without the subsidy we honestly don’t know what we’re gonna do.” #TrumpShutdown

A brave young woman asks JD Vance: “When you talk about too many immigrants here, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You gave us the path and now tell us we don't belong here? Why do you have to be Christian to be American?”

WATCH: Dr Oz lies that KFF “retracted” their numbers about how high ACA premiums are about to go if Republicans refuse to extend the subsidies

He told a reporter to “go back and look at the website” — so he did 👇🏽

Mockler: I’m 23 years old, and Gen Zers have spent all of our formative years living in a political system that’s purely dysfunctional. People in my generation see the president posting memes online rather than actually negotiating with the other side.

Trump's approval ratings are already tanking, and the American people haven't even gotten to the part where they pay enormous costs for his stupidity.
