Being cruel for giggles. It is sickening.

Let’s hope that means the poor white republicans in Kentucky, Arkansas and Mississippi get to enjoy the benefits of a Republican government.

Mind you while F/S can help, they may not cover all food expenses.

they won't even give me food stamps since I get too much money from SS , $1,300 a month, what a joke.

Riiiight... didn't they just take kids out of packing plants recently? Send them back! Bring back Victorian English morals (see Dickens)!

Abortion band will result in more births, then Republicans feel food stamps for needy children is asking for too much. Then what is their plan when parents can’t afford to basic necessities?

White people are the recipients of most food stamps. Except it's not food stamps anymore. They just use those words because it's a dog whistle for the old Welfare Queen racist trope.

I'm on disability but I don't qualify for food stamps because I "make too much money".

ladymorgantwo.bsky.social•13 days ago

I could only get like $15 a month, can't get AHCCCS (Arizona Medicaid), because I make about $30 too much money on SSD. It's bullshit. When my kid was little I could because she was on KidsCare.

Our government has been broken since before Reagan, and no one has wanted to fix it until now.

How damned deep has the rot seeped into hearts and souls of the GOP. Their Christ, Reagan, was a cruel mother fucker too. I remember the just say no fiasco.

While taxpayers paid $20million for trump to watch his superbowl team lose 😡

Let's make sure they are born so we can starve them and withhold medical treatment from them. Standard Republican position.

They are also alarmed at the lack of damsels tied to railroad tracks nowadays

And a lot of food stamps and Medicaid recipients DO work but are making pathetic salaries.

Taking food from babies to give $$ to the rich.

GQP: Fuck them kids. The racist fucks think that “socialism” is when there is the slightest chance that a non-white person has access to public resources that only a white KKKhristian deserves. If a few million poor white people suffer as a result of destroying “socialism,” it’s God’s will, etc.
