The program helped millions of people, especially children, access affordable food — until Trump and Republicans gutted it in their big, ugly bill. Don’t believe their lies about food stamps for a second. 401367585

Brian Agosta @bagosta.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Of course he frames it that way but there wouldn’t be a problem if ICE wasn’t using disproportionate force against largely peaceful people. He’s got a major chip on his shoulder. 000
Brian Agosta @bagosta.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Being in the US unlawfully is akin to jaywalking, not violence. There's no justification for ICE’s disproportionate violence against people who live their lives peacefully. Think about that next time you roll through a stop sign. Breaking the law, yes.
