    The Republican Party is a criminal org that should have been broken up and its members prosecuted years ago.

    I’m so sick of hearing this claim. We are a very wealthy country. Look at the trillions of dollars of grift and cruelty we can withstand with things like tariffs, ICE, and Iran.

    Even if there was widespread food stamp fraud, so fucking what? I don’t care if 100 people get food for every truly needy person that needs it. If nothing else we can feed our people.

      But look, what if someone used food stamps to pay for luxury products like name brand Pop Tarts and not gruel-grade rice? It’s not fair that the least fortunate get all the breaks!

        We should all be against the biggest welfare queens in our countries… no, not your poor neighboring city with dilapidated buildings. No, not the lazy people on unemployment that just can’t seem to make it in life… no, not the hard working man that works 3 jobs to provide for his family but somehow STILL can’t seem to get by… nay… we should all be pointing our fingers at

        ELON MUSK… JEFF BEZOS… etc. etc. The biggest fucking welfare queens in our country, taking all the welfare they can get because they barely scraping by on their billions a year ROI. Poor bastards. We work hard and harder to pay in the tax pool for these fuckheads while they get all the breaks, and collect our welfare. AMERICA!!

        Ever since I learned about Lobster Boy from Faux “News”, I wake up in a cold sweat every night, and it’s been over a decade. Lobster? Steak!? On food stamps?

        The culture of dependence must end, I say!

        /me clutches pearls and calls for the country’s manager…

      Yeah, but someone, somewhere, who I don’t think deserves it, might be eating lobster and steak on those food stamps!

      I mean this guy was a surfer, and he got $200 a month! And seemed like he was not completely miserable! How could Obama do this to me?

    It’s next to impossible to defraud snap! The new system is a debt card that can’t be used on unapproved items. The biggest fraud ever pulled on Americans is means testing for government programs. That’s the most expensive aspect of any government program, is the means testing. Want to create solidarity in America? Stop dividing us between middle and lower classes with means testing. If you are an American you are entitled to rights and services you know how the constitution says.

    Since every accusation is a confession with these fuckers, it’s fair enough to assume they’re committed massive food stamp fraud

    Evidence is something the Republicans have never really required for any of the claims from Bullshit Mountain.

    Evidence is for sissies and the blue-haired woke mob.
