The secretive donor circle that lifted JD Vance is now re-writing MAGA’s future

Meanwhile USDA Sec Rollins is trying to change the subject —the subject being Trump's decision to withhold food aid from 40M people—by claiming the admin is focused on rooting out SNAP fraud.
To be fair, no one can fraudulently receive benefits if no one receives benefits, period

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

The policy being weaponized to inflict pain on the marginalized is intended to keep retailers from charging SNAP customers more than they charge non-SNAP customers.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

This perfectly illustrates double standards. Harris was sued and settled for reasonable editing, while Trump's heavily edited interviews went unpunished. This demonstrates the media's cowardice and inequality when dealing with him

For someone who claimed to be the "no more wars" president, Trump seems determined to embroil the United States in as many foreign conflicts as possible. There must be damning evidence against him in the Epstein files, for him to throw this many shiny objects at us.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.
