Thanks to the government shutdown, the 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP will be SOL come Nov. 1. That, folks, is this Saturday.
The USDA, which oversees the food program, posted on its website yesterday that "the well has run dry." But in a service to every American, the USDA also informed us who's to blame: transgender people and immigrants.
Of course. Who else could it possibly be?
"We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats," opines the USDA site. "They can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance."
I'm old enough to remember a time—a year ago—when the government worked for all Americans. Now it's a nauseating study in partisanship.
According to Trump's USDA, Democrats are literally taking food from the mouths of babes in order to provide healthcare for transgender lunatics and villainous foreigners.
It's the cost of health-care premiums that concern the Democrats, but why let an opportunity to scapegoat trans folk and the undocumented go to waste? It's as if the American government is channeling Claude Rains: "Round up the usual suspects."
