There's money for a ballroom/bunker. There's money to fire live ammunition over I-5. There's money to send the National Guard to take over peaceful cities.
But there's no money to feed Americans who need help to provide nutritious meals to their families.

And USDA is blaming undocumented immigrants, trans people, and Democrats when it is all on Trump.
Trump has an authorized $5B SNAP contingency fund he won't use because he wants to make people suffer to force Democrats to accept his terms.
That includes children, veterans, active duty troops.

The rise in costs you’re feeling, it’s by design. Skyrocketing prices, government shutdowns, and fear mongering aren’t accidents, they’re part of a deliberate strategy to break our trust in government and keep power concentrated in the hands of a few.

First it was the Rose Garden and now it’s the East Wing. During the four years I worked at the WH it was a thrill and an honor to take my family and friends on private tours of the “People’s House .” This is just heartbreaking.

From a friend who was driving north on I-5 this am:
“The five freeway will be closed today from noon until 3 PM to accommodate the live ammo demonstration from Camp Pendleton.”
This is going to create a huge traffic jam since there is no detour around it. Why the f**k are they using live ammo?

Imagine if your child went to a concert & was taken hostage by terrorists after 400 of their fellow concert-goers were massacred & the world ignored your kid or celebrated his plight.
There's so much bias against Jewish people & it's heartbreaking!

Two years ago, on October 7, 2023, an attack began when over 4,000 rockets were fired at Israel. Reflections on the past 732 days.
