Amy Klobuchar picked the wrong gal to
try and make us feel sorry for GOP’s
food stamp cut

Original Article

Count on Democrats to put a face to Republican efforts to cut federal benefits, rolling out potential victims who elicit the most sympathy so the media can broadcast their plight to the nation. But Sen. Amy Klobuchar’s choice to counter a significant GOP cut to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) was not exactly from central casting. SNAP helps feed more than 40 million low-income Americans, which is a crisis all to itself that DC conveniently overlooks, and Republicans are advocating for nearly $300 billion in cuts through 2034, which includes pushing some of the costs down to states.

Comments:

Good grief!! I'm permanently disabled and tried to get SNAP to help with food costs. The most they would offer me is a measly $23 / month. What did they expect me to be able to buy with THAT??? Meanwhile, 4-kid Felicia gets 21 YEARS worth of taxpayer help??? What's wrong with this picture???

From the article: "The woman explained that she now works a single full-time job as a bus monitor for a school district, but still relies on SNAP to feed her children and herself — lost in the mix is that she has been receiving federal aid for 21 years." A "progressive" leech.

I guarantee that all four kids do not have the same father. Where are the fathers for that matter. The woman weighs at least 400 lbs. I guess she gets a lot of cookies and cakes, soda and chips with her SNAP money.

What man could afford to feed that Hippo? She's the typical buggy jockey riding around the Walmart and asking you to reach up for the Party Size chips on the top shelf. The 17 and 21 year old probably live in the basement and have never had a job, just like mom. Bus monitor? You sit there and tell kids to shut up when they get too rowdy and help LaShawn to find his bus because he can't read numbers.

What I see here is a lack of gratitude. I can't think of any reason middle class families should limit their own family size, so that someone else can enjoy the luxury of having a large family. Dems invited millions of illegal aliens to come to the US, and enjoy a better life, and a more expensive diet than ordinary citizens get to enjoy. Keep an eye on Democrats when they start complaining about cookies, cakes, sodas and chips no longer being subsidized by taxpayers for people on food stamps/snap benefits.

Doesn't the 21 year old work? Let me guess, her kids have some sort of "disability". Being fat, poor, and stupid is not a disability or a reason to leech off the taxpayers for 21 years. Your adult children need to get jobs. Stop following in the "family business " and living off the government.

To be fair, it cost a lot more money to buy fresh fruit and vegetables than it does to buy junk food which does have ingredients that can be addictive. That's one of the reasons America has the fattest poor people in the world. I'm not saying being on assistance for 21 years is a good thing, but there is another side to the coin that we should consider.

I don't know #14 - if you can figure out how to have four kids then you can figure out how and what fresh foods to buy. It's 2025 and we have to stop treating "poor people as simpletons who cannot function without government assistance. So sick of the moniker "single mother" as if some single mother woke up one morning with a child. In this age of birth control for free (go to any Planned Parenthood clinic), no excuse to have single mothers like this loser. It's like oh poor me. I'm a single mother. You chose to get pregnant and if you cannot afford the child or children - don't have them.

The woman's weight aside, she's been collecting for 21 years! That is a disgrace. Also, a student bus driver is typically a seasonal job. Does she also collect unemployment over the summer?

A friend just sent me a short video of a fat heifer w/ the obligatory nose ring and assorted piercings, being asked what kind of work she does. With a very snarky laugh, she informed the camera that she doesn't work, that she's 'professionally' disabled and then bragged that her equally overweight boyfriend/husband was being paid as her 'caregiver!' They both laughed as they made these bragging statements about how they're gaming the system. Until a liberal judge rules against him, I hope President Trump can implement some kind of workfare program, and get these lazy @#$@%& off the dole!

A morbidly obese New Jersey woman sporting a shaved head and a heart for criminal aliens made quite the spectacle of herself as she attached herself to an ICE vehicle as it attempted to leave what appears to be the Delaney Hall Detention Center. Screaming like a banshee, the plus-size woman cried out to the driver, “Let my people go!” The vehicle began slowly rolling as several protesters, including the shrieking lunatic, grasped the front end. “Don’t kill me!” the woman called out as the vehicle picked up speed.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has urged people to rise up against the “disease” of immigration enforcement. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Johnson was asked during a public meeting on Wednesday about whether he would be joining protests against the Trump administration’s policy of mass deportations. “This is a necessary fight for all of us to be able to push back,” Johnson said. ”Whether we use the courts or whether we continue to protest and raise our voices, dissent matters in this moment.” “It’s a war on our culture. It’s a war on our democracy. It’s a war on our humanity.”

Today we mark Flag Day—a day often overshadowed by barbecues and the early buzz of summer. But let me remind you: this isn’t just about flying a piece of cloth. It’s about honoring a symbol forged in the fire of war, consecrated by sacrifice, and held high by the everyday heroes who’ve carried America on their backs for nearly 250 years. The American flag wasn’t born in glory—it was born out of necessity. When the Continental Congress adopted it on June 14, 1777, it wasn’t destined for classroom walls or Olympic ceremonies. It was a battlefield tool, a banner for soldiers

Democrats have been losing their minds about the 250th birthday of the Army celebration in Washington, D.C. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's reaction was pretty disgusting - acting like he was horrified by seeing the preparations, and even hoping they will be rained on. Too bad, Tim; so far, it looks like a beautiful day. There were other Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) who attacked the event, claiming it is somehow a celebration by President Donald Trump of his birthday and that the cost of $45 million is too much. But they had been preparing for the event for the past two years.

In the wake of the horrific shootings in Minnesota that left former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband dead and State Senator John Hoffman and his wife hospitalized, Senator Cory Booker wasted no time jumping in front of a camera to deliver a sermon on “context”—a not-so-subtle attempt to blame President Donald Trump and his supporters. In a video posted to his X account, Booker began with standard boilerplate stuff: “What happened in Minnesota is horrific. This is not right, it is not normal, it is not justifiable, and should not be tolerated. Violence, political violence, of any kind is not acceptable.” But then came the pivot.

On Sept. 30, 1962, the University of Mississippi experienced a “mostly peaceful” demonstration. As with all such protests, it was peaceful until it wasn’t — it became a riot, and a particularly heinous and destructive one. The mob attacked federal officers, including border-patrol agents, with rocks and Molotov cocktails. They burned cars. They smashed street lights. They ransacked buildings. They drove vehicles at the officers. And they did it all to try to prevent the federal government from enforcing the law.

“Mass Deportations Now.” It wasn’t just a slogan on signs — it was a rallying cry that galvanized millions of voters. The promise was the restoration of American sovereignty through the removal of all illegal aliens — not just the violent ones.

The message that won the election was not “Mass Deportations, But Only For The Worst Offenders.” But on Thursday President Donald Trump posted the following on Truth Social: “Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking
