no but it’s a smart move from a business point of view /s

Crime is about to go up. People get poor, can’t afford housing and eating food, they get desperate. Supposedly they’re trying to get rid of crime.
The biggest takeaway from this is … not that the president is doing this
The biggest takeaway is that … THE REST OF THE COUNTRY NORMALIZES THIS BEHAVIOUR!
That there are no riots over this is telling. I mean, Nepal had a whole revolution over nepotism.
Like seriously. My parents who brought me to volunteer in soup kitchens and federally funded christian outreach programs, literally voted against feeding the poor and for deporting American citizens who are trying to get jobs and bring their children to school. I have so many questions but when I ask its like talking to a brick wall… actually I get more information from concrete than I do with my parents
California isn’t. They paid out SNAP in full starting this morning. It took the assembly a little time to pass an emergency bill.
But my Tennessee governor told us that they had no way to get state funds onto federal cards!! It was just too difficult so they weren’t going to use the $2,100,000,000 dollars in the “rainy day fund”
Massachusetts is promising benefits in full by Saturday.
…. It’s unclear how since previously they said there wasn’t enough slack in the state budget and they didn’t say where the money would come from. They can’t possibly trust the federal govt so idk
And the Republican party allows him to do what he wants
Seriously though why the fuck does it seem like they get to just appeal shit forever no matter how many times their position is shown to have zero merit, legal standing, or even basic logic?
When they own the Judicial branch, they get to play dollies with the whole thing.
But only with two dolls.
This the same guy prevented from running a charity in New York because he stole from kids with cancer?
The demented rapist pedo guy? That one?
The guy planning to build the Epstein Ballroom on a government building with mysterious donors
He was upset because there was a list of everyone flying there so he figured why not keep it closer to home.
You’re talking about the convicted criminal? Mr. Twice impeached?
No, I think he’s on about the guy who has had at least 26 different women accusing him of sexual assault. That guy!!
but but but people on snap are 300 pounds!! They buy diet coke, only I should be allowed to drink diet coke! They need to lose weight!! muh taxes!!
Republicans don’t understand how little money actually goes to snap, and love to put hypocritical demands on welfare recipients.
I don’t think he cares about children. He raped them.
Maybe if he knew there wouldn’t be children to rape if they weren’t fed, he would change his mind?
This is completely expected.
At least we’re not labeling them terrorists and bombing them as they starve.
Yet.
The target practice for THAT is currently offshore.
They were lobbing artillery from ships over the I5 last week
Yea, the California Governor shut down the freeway just before they got one.
Governors helping people, what an amazing time to be alive.
Yes, but that governor doesn’t spend every waking moment quoting Karl Marx, so he’s as bad as Trump.
Hey, Meal Team Six, take your gaslighting somewhere else. Newsom’s our governor, and if we want him out, we’ll fucking elect someone else.
He thinks that his messaging of blaming the Democrats is working. The worse things get, the better he thinks that messaging becomes. He knows his base will never know or care what he is doing, only that he says it’s the Democrats fault.
This is literally a winning strategy from his perspective.
Cruelty is literally the point.
He’s only appealing it for show, though. He won’t comply no matter what the result is, and nobody will make him.
