One aspect of the government shutdown that probably wasn’t anticipated by Chuck Schumer and other Democrats, is that it has revealed to the public just how many people receive food stamps.
Years ago, when the program was still called ‘food stamps’ it was seen as something that struggling families might use temporarily to get through a hard time. Then it was re-branded as the ‘SNAP’ program and destigmatized. People were encouraged to enroll. Now there are many more people using the program, many who probably don’t even really need it.
The longer the shutdown goes on, the more reports there are about this and it’s stunning to taxpayers who did not realize until now how incredibly huge this is.
Look at this report from The Hill:

It really is shocking and now that Democrats have prolonged the shutdown, more people are going to be talking about this.


Commentary:

Nearly two thirds of illegal aliens are collecting food stamps, meaning that most of the people getting food stamps from the U.S. Government and the U.S. Taxpayer are not even Americans.
That is what Democrats have accomplished in the 4 years of the Biden era.
The DOGE program initiated in January did uncover the fraud within the SNAP program that also included Medicare and Medicaid but I guess bo one was listening.
There have been some honest investigative journalists like like Oscar Blue Ramirez, Ben Bergquam, and Michael Yon that have reported and sound the alarm about what the Biden regime was doing. It was proven that NGOs like Catholic Charities, the Red Cross, and the UN were orchestrating the invasion. They got the proof that the illegal aliens were given Social Security cards and debit cards at the border before they were bussed up to the hotels in the sanctuary cities. And once they got settled into the hotels, they were given welfare benefits and healthcare. The illegal themselves bragged about it on Tik-Tok. Vegas-Axis on Youtube reported it too.
And why haven't we been talking about this since January? What other major benefits have they been getting? Section 8 housing?
It's no wonder that we're going bankrupt in America and becoming a Marxist Socialist country.
It appears that Obama was true to his word. He Fundamentally Transformed America into a Marxist Socialist State.

If we really want to 'make America great again', we need to return to the Golden Age of American exceptionalism, when one income could fund a family, and the wealthy paid 75% and up in taxes.
Now the wealthy hoard huge fortunes, and the majority are struggling to feed their kids.

That is a huge number no question. This is the end result of sending millions of jobs overseas. All of the West is suffering in their own way.

It will also bring attention to the continued rising cost of food....

Doc, I believe the greatest contribution Trump has given America is his ability to fully reveal to the American people just how corrupt the government really is. For example, 10 years ago concepts like the Deep State were fringe topics, now it is generally accepted that the government has been and is still largely controlled by unelected establishment players. He showed us how corrupt the judicial system really is. He showed us how easy it is to cheat in elections and get away with it. He showed us how the democraps fund their globalist agenda with stuff like NSAID, and he is showing us how the democraps are mismanaging social safety net programs for their benefit. Trump has forced the democraps to reveal just how nefarious they really are. Like him or not, people better understand why their government sucks and the dire need to get the government back on track to represent all of America in the most frugal way possible.

Let me guess, that's all Trump's fault and grocery prices were low and falling during Biden, right? Do you democraps realize how easy it was for democraps to ignore and forget all the stuff Biden was doing, yet every little thing that happens under this administration is severely scrutinized in excruciating detail and then bitched about ad nauseam like a Karen on meth? Here's a little advice that could revolutionize the democrap party: hold your own politicians accountable with this level of scrutiny and there will be no need for America to ever elect another republican.

Are you actually claiming that if Biden as President told democrats in congress not to negotiate with republicans before a shut down and then had speaker Pelosi shut congress down and send them home during a shutdown, where food stamps for 10s of millions of people were out of money if they didn't negotiate, and 10s of millions having their health insurance go way up.....if they didn't negotiate with republicans.....

That no one would have blamed Biden at all, for doing that....?

Democrap voters would not have blamed Biden, they would have blamed Trump. You truly do not understand how the democrap party really works, especially when it comes to propaganda and the control of narratives. You are psychologically manipulated in ways you can't imagine. And you certainly are not qualified to discuss politics.

The benefit provided by Trump in this regard runs against an incredible degree of confirmation bias amongst his detractors.

Their opposition to all things Trump will simply not permit them to accept that he might have been right about anything or acknowledge it even to themselves.

Trump has the absolute best propaganda machine that ever existed on the face of this Earth, psychologically manipulating you in ways you can't imagine....

So sad you can't look in the mirror and see what is really going on in this world outside of your Trump World....

You try to take a speck of sawdust out of my eye, before you removed the plank of wood from your own eye first....

You are captured by narratives and are projecting your party's known defects onto the right. I don't even like Trump all that much and my favorite politician is Tulsi Gabbard. I can certainly see how bad the GOP is, I leaned left until 2018. and I can see just how worse the democraps are today compared to the right. Most here can see it, except for the diehard democraps who think the democrap party is faultless and all the blame goes solely to Trump. Wake the **** up.

I do not think the democrats are faultless, for goodness sake...they have no idea what they are doing...and are powerless at this point, by their own making...

I am not projecting democrat problems on to the right wing....you have no right wing, no conservatives anymore...congress is filled with do nothing, yellow belly cowards in your so called majority leadership... and democrats are too weak and confused and overwhelmed to take any sane advantage of it....

Democrats are the lesser of two evils so to say, in my head right now, only because they are not suck ups to Trump's lawlessness as the Rs are....

Well then, if the democraps are the lesser of two evils, in your opinion, then hold them accountable to a higher standard than the right holds their politicians accountable. Then your politicians will win. It's really that easy. But the democraps keep putting forth candidates like Clinton, Biden and Harris and all the RNC has to do is put forward a greasy shit sandwich served in a dirty ashtray to win. Stop blindly supporting everything these democrap clowns do and demand more from the DNC than a greasy shit sandwich served in a dirty ashtray.

Communism is the lesser of two evils? You have to see that communism is what your party is infatuated with these days. Even AOC has left the squad and hooked up with the Commie club along with her constant sidekicks, Bernie and Mondami. Democrats have embraced a dangerous ideology. Like they say, "You can vote yourself into communism, but you have to shoot your way out".

Two terrible parties. One just happens to be even worse than the other, at this moment. No good choices.

We just refuse to fix this "system".

I hate seeing sports injuries. I hate getting into a hot car in the summer.

That's pretty much the extent of my hate.

I'm not like you. Thank goodness.

Getting rid of dead weight who aren't Americans would be the first step.
