42 million Americans will be starving starting November.

[theHawk]

the man in CHARGE is Trump and the responsibility falls on his shoulders as he is in a position to fix this, either by giving in to the demands of the Democrats not to cut Medicaid and Medicare, or by finding the funds to give to the SNAP program so that these Americans do not starve!

Nope. The people in charge of funding right now is the Senate.

All the Dems have to do is drop their demands to add illegals back onto Medicaid/care.

But they care more about illegals milking our system than they do about Americas.

 

[Luckyone]

The vast majority of people on food stamps are illegals.

They can deport themselves.

This is a great way to get them to leave. Cut off the gravy train

What the **** are you talking about!

AI Overview

The percentage of SNAP (food stamp) benefits going to undocumented immigrants is essentially zero, as they are ineligible for federal benefits like SNAP. Benefits are restricted to U.S. citizens and eligible non-citizens with specific legal statuses, though children in mixed-status families may be eligible if they are U.S. citizens. Recent USDA data indicates that less than

1%1 %
of improper SNAP payments in fiscal year 2023 were due to citizenship eligibility issues.

Prove your statement!

You are so misinformed and close-minded that even facts do not enter your brain when they are staring at you!

No, the current government shutdown that began on October 1, 2025, was not caused by Democrats seeking to add undocumented immigrants to Medicare or Medicaid. The claim that Democrats want to provide healthcare to "illegal aliens" has been widely refuted by fact-checkers and media outlets.

Here is a breakdown of the key issues in the shutdown:

• A Republican bill cut healthcare access: The core of the disagreement revolves around the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (OBBBA), signed into law by President Trump in July 2025. This law made significant cuts to Medicaid and other health programs. Most importantly, it restricted eligibility for certain health benefits for legally present immigrants, including DACA recipients and asylum-seekers.
• Democrats want to restore cuts for legally present immigrants: In response to the OBBBA, Democrats in the Senate introduced a continuing resolution to repeal these health-related changes. Their proposal aimed to restore healthcare access for the estimated 1.4 million legally present individuals who would have lost it under the OBBBA.
• GOP misrepresents the Democratic proposal: Republicans, including Vice President JD Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson, have falsely claimed that Democrats were attempting to provide taxpayer-funded healthcare to undocumented immigrants. Multiple sources confirm that undocumented immigrants were already ineligible for most federal healthcare benefits, and the Democratic proposal would not have changed that.

Nope, we aren’t subsidizing Obamacare.

Nope, we aren’t paying for healthcare for immigrants.

How about proving the OP title. You have failed miserably.

 

[WEATHER53]

We have allowed a dependency Levisthan to occur and now the public sees how they have been paying for one out of every 2.3 family’s food . Add in the housing free shit and more families are on than off

An ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT is no more legal with the stroke of an autopen nor any more honest than your lie that 42 million Americans are facing starvation.

LOL Lucky does irony.

 

[citygator]

So you are saying, you are good with what DOGE did cutting all that aid going to other countries fore B.S

Im just identifying who is on SNAP. A bunch of kids, disabled, mental illness issues and poor people. There is probably a few hundred thousand leaches that are playing the system but the vast majority have some real issues.

17% of SNAP recipients are foreign born:

Great way to make the OP point! Thanks

Except Trump could easily shift money to pay them if he wanted to.

You want me to take you seriously as an independent and not a democrat then stop acting like one.
The democrats had to vote for the bill you keep referring to so obviously they were fine with the things that were in it. So if they were fine why are you trying to make such a big deal out of it? The democrats were just fine when they agreed to the ACA subsidies that were set to end this year. Now suddenly they are not. They would rather workers, military, and dependents go without food or money. They had time to try and save ACA but sat on their ass.

No, they have never been in agreement with Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. They all voted against it, in conjunction with 3 Republicans. It barely passed by 1 vote (the Vice President).

Trump has no control over the purse strings. That is congress. The fact that republicans have put forth measure after measure and the democrats keep refusing to them shows they are not serious.

So then, why is Trump spending so much money without Congresses approval. Why is he cutting programs without their approval as well.

As for you thinking Biden or Harris were good choices shows just how off the wall you were. Since so many, even his party, thought he was not.

I never said they were good choices, just better ones than Trump. The difference between choosing getting Diabetes or getting Cancer. Neither is good, but Cancer will kill you in a much shorter time than Diabetes.

As far as looking at other threads of yours goes. I have looked at them and that is why I say you are a democrat fully engulfed in the party even if you do not want to admit it. As far as data I can find data that suggests pigs can fly or squirrels are giants. I just do not tend to believe data that is unsubstantiated and poorly made up.

You only see what you want to see because I rarely comment on the issues (meaning that I am not acting Politically). I am against incompetence and that is not a political issue but a competence issue, which Trump lacks. I have been against the man and its supporters and not against the party of its platform.

 

[Luckyone]

You seem to be under the impression that we give a **** what your demands are.

We don’t.

We won the election, we aren’t supporting your lunacy.

Well, you are now losing as Trump now has a very low approval rating, meaning that your win will not last long. In addition, the damage that Trump will end up causing, will hurt everyone (including yourself).

I sense a sea change in public opinion that even the brain dead democrats can't deny. Case in point, Spokane city council election. After more than a decade of molly coddling and shaping all of their decisions in favor of the homeless over taxpayers, even the ultra liberal mayor and city council are being forced to face the fact that the homeless ARE THE PROBLEM and making common sense moves to ease it. Not enough, but they are being forced to address it logically.

The proof is the shutdown is centered around illegals already here getting healthcare benefits and not having paid one dime
That takes precedent over 42 million families.

There are tons of people taking advantage of the snap benefits people who could work who refuse. Disabled, as in can't force their arse to get off the couch and work.
