In the US with the Snap Program:
$250 million could feed approximately 83,000 people for a full year
School meal programs:
$250 million could provide roughly 50-62 million school lunches

We always get these huge Trump announcements with much media hype and fanfare with lots of big promises and assurances, effusively praising himself looking for awards & prizes, while experts say the details are scarce or nonexistent. Then a short time later we get the reality.

And as a "Christian" Muppet Mike why do you continue to enable Pedophiles? Why do you hate the poor and refuse to support basic life-sustaining support for them? Why do you refuse to take action on gun violence that is killing our children? Why do you demonize immigrants? Is this WJWD?

What is it with Maga's and 💩? Smearing it on walls, AI images of it dropping from a plane? It's an odd, infantile obsession.
