I work at a food bank in Louisville. It’s amazing the amount of food we give out weekly. Many need it. Some definitely don’t but we can’t control that. Some take their bags of free food to local stores and sell the bag for $5-10 and then the grocer puts the goods on the shelves to sell. It’s maddening and sad at the same time.
I know it's more work, but deface the packages with a marker before giving food out.

More I think about this snap issue and all the immigrants (illegal or not) its just more proof Milton Friedman had the best view on immigration:

He said we should have free immigration but offer ZERO benefits or assistance.

Well, when you learn control how blue states are governed, then get back to us about this asinine viewpoint. In case you haven't heard, libs love to give sh it away.....it leads to increases in their voting rolls.

Also, say you offer free immigration and then have no benefits or assistance. So no education or healthcare for them? We're going to have a slew of illiterate sicko's walking the streets? Who is going to police them? Housing?

This may be the dumbest idea I have read.

Works out to be about 1 in every 8 if my math is correct. 😱


Or it just may be that the illegals are the other half of not just their illegal vote manipulation but also their money laundering operations. They get benefits and such; but many are probably trafficked into a controlled environment where they also have to pay exorbitant sums for rent an other amenities, which are funneled through their handlers back to politicians in the form of donations and undisclosed cash/crypto.

It always comes down to the money, when it isnt also directly threatening power. They had gone somewhat silent about violent, criminal illegals for a little while. Now they've switched tactics by stopping benefits in order to ramp up thingd over the benefits being stopped. They knew stopping benefits just for illegals wouldn't move the needle enough. The Democrats decided to starve out their constituents.

EXACTLY LIKE KINGS AND NOBLES DO WHEN THE LOWER CLASS GETS UPPITY....

Massie voted no on both of those things.....

He's not a fraud hes voted no on more spending every time, meanwhile Trump just allowed student loan forgiveness to go thru

Some ppl just hate dissent and independent thought I guess. 100% compliance only

Plus hes the only one that doesn't get AIPAC money...you know, bc hes America first

Also, hes the most outspoken FOR small farmers
He voted no on the floor vote, he voted to move one of them, perhaps it was the inflation reduction act out of committee when he could’ve killed it.

Him voting no on the floor vote is right up his alley when he knows his vote won’t stop it from passing.

He’s a fraud, does absolutely nothing in Congress except just enough to get reelected.

These radicals are boring. At least radicals of old, Jerry Rubin, Abbie Hoffman, Allen Ginsberg, etc. were entertaining. Insane but entertaining. Creative too. They tried to levitate the Pentagon back in the 60s. Probably acid related.

Probably the products of undercover/clandestine govt experiments

There is ZERO WAY this IMBECILE qualified for college, much less passed the bar exam in any state.

Who's going to tell the mental midget that the President doesn't vote on legislation? I bet if she tilted sideways, a "dirty, wet, and bruised" martini would pour out her ear. She's the reason that candidates should have to pass a drug and alcohol screening, and at least get a B on a civics test.

Lol. Just cant win with the programmed on either side of the aisle. They don't give 2 ****s about ethics or conservatism, policy or platform. They're just party above all else.

I don't want any more debt. Massie runs on that, and gets elected on that. HE DA** SURE BETTER VOTE AGAINST ADDING DEBT. It's why he's there.

How thick do you have to be to not understand that?

Lmao. As weak as leftist talking points

You can't escape your programming. We understand. We get it. He's not Lindsay Graham who tells you what you want to hear and votes to enrich himself and Ukrainian oligarchs, preaches party line, and ignores the fundamental tenets of what us supposed to be a conservative, both fiscally and constitutionally, party.

Massie proposed bills that align with his platform, instead of kicking the can down the road with CRs. He calls aipac what it is. He doesn't just say "America First" and then screw over the people, and for that he earns your ire...

Tell us you're a RINO without telling us you're a RINO. What happened over the last few months that you don't want the Epstein names revealed, or the budget balanced, or the govt running a surplus?

We need to cure ourselves of the oft repeated propaganda that somehow our legislators are supposed to "work hard" by proposing tons of bills to pass, instead of returning/keeping our country in line with the constitution, bill of rights, law and order, surplus budgets, and eliminating pork.

The job is to "establish justice and secure domestic tranquility, provide for the common DEFENSE, ensure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and OUR POSTERITY (future/children)," rather than provide for the UN, foreign nations, and attack other sovereign nations politically, clandestinely, or directly/physically on our behalf or that of another nation.

Massie is trying to do that. The establishment in the party is in the way.

He does some grandstanding too, like they all do, but he puts his vote where his platform is. He doesn't just kiss the ring/ask of the lesson leading the party.

He’s a fraud, he proposes things he knows will never pass. He’s found a niche where he does nothing, yet stays elected.

Dude took a ridiculous Christmas photo with his entire family holding AR15’s, he’s a fraud. Massie wants it all done right now, and that isn’t going to happen. If he got his way the Dems would win Super majorities and then we’d be rightly fuqed.

Graham is a fraud too.

How do you lose BOTH PG's in: a scrimmage and ONE preseason game? We're cursed LOL

I blame Stoops.
Love Pope but didn't really understand why he didn't get a couple of true back up PGs. Especially since we had basically no healthy PGs at all last year.

Is what it is though. We will be a really good team and should be F4 good. But that is my only real complaint that I hope doesn't bite us all year again.

I think I was more shocked by how bad the defense was. I mean every offense is not gonna be as good when your starting PG and back up PG is out. But this is supposed to be a team with several good defenders (even with JQ out). I don't think Georgetown missed a bunny all night.

But like I said at least this game doesn't count lol. We won't even remember this game 2-3 months from now.
