“What are we doing here, folks?” @hcrichardson.bsky.social breaks down SNAP’s history. While it feeds low-income families it also boosts the economy. Yet Trump & the GOP refuse to fund it during the shutdown, though there are funds that would last a shutdown, all to starve Americans to score points.

Yesterday the Trump administration said it would not use any of the approximately $6 billion the U.S.

The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.

Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.
