That vile, disgusting tweet by Mike Davis is still up on X and I don't see any media coverage of it.

1. Doesn't look like he ever missed a meal

[Quiet Em]

2. He is such a disgusting POS

He's showing exactly who the con and his MAGA cult are.

3. Some details:

"The poor should starve, says Trump administration"

"Funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will expire at the end of the month, impacting as many as 42 million people—16 million of them children.
And if you’re thinking that this is just an unfortunate, unfixable product of the government shutdown, think again.

The Department of Agriculture has about $5 billion in contingency funds it could use, even during the shutdown. It would cover about two-thirds of the whole month of benefits. But, according to the administration, those funds are only for emergencies “like hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods, that can come on quickly and without notice.”

Starvation is apparently not an emergency.

So the administration won’t spend those contingency funds, nor will it reimburse states if they pick up the slack.

Unsurprisingly, the administration is saying this is the fault of Democrats, who have “voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program.” Of course, Democrats have done no such thing."

4. Davis is a right wing fringe asshole.

Yes asshole 40 million on food stamps. Poor people, people that WORK at Walmart and fast food and so on can't make a living and can't feed their family. Don't start in with the eugenics shit either you miserable bastard.

How fucking dare that asshole.

[B.See]

8. No, he ISN'T right wing fringe. He is EXACTLY

WHO they are, WHAT they are, and said exactly WHAT they think.

5. This tweet from Mike Davis from your link.

Attorney * MRDLaw *
| FORMER: Chief Counsel for Nominations, Senate Judiciary Committee * Law Clerk, Justice Gorsuch

We should only help people who can’t help themselves.

It’s outrageous 40MM people get food stamps.

Get off your fat, ghetto asses.

Get a job.

Stop reproducing.

Change your shitty culture.

Stop giving food stamps to immigrants.

We don’t want you here, if you won’t work.

[B.See]

9. Bigots eventually out THEMSELVES,

every fkn time, do they not?

[sheshe2]

10. Unbelievable, is it not?

He is a true POS.

[B.See]

12. Not so unbelievable if

one had seen it before, and know them for what they are. The only thing that has changed is the boldness they now have in openly saying exactly what they've ALWAYS thought.

The Bigot in Chief once asked of Black voters, "What have you got to lose?" MOST of us knew the answer to that.

Those who didn't, now figuring it out..,...... perhaps.

6. "Stop reproducing" - said by people who think we should have as many babies as possible.

Pick a lane, guys.

Some facts:

"SNAP recipients: White: 37 percent; African American: 26 percent; Hispanic: 16 percent; Asian: 3 percent; and Native American: about 2 percent. (About 16 percent of participants are categorized as 'race unknown.')"

"86 percent of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, elderly person, or person with disabilities.

"Almost one-third of SNAP households have earned income, though only 20 percent of households have gross monthly income above the federal poverty line. The average SNAP household’s monthly gross income is $872 and net income is $398.

"According to a 2023 study by Rand researchers, nearly 26% of active-duty service members are considered food insecure, and about 15% rely on food stamps or food banks to help support their families."

'"Households in rural counties (16 percent) participate in SNAP more often than those located in small town counties (15 percent) and metropolitan counties (13 percent), according to Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) analysis."

11. Damn, there are absolutely no filters at all

with today's republican politicians. Even Reagan was a tad more tactful than that. Now they are unapologetically saying all the racist crap out loud.

Well, at least they aren't pretending to be something they aren't anymore.

[electric_blue68]

13. Mostly bc Trump gave them "permission" to go loud.

[BattleRow]

15. Apparently,unbridled hatred is now considered patriotism.

[PatSeg]

17. Exactly

He is the messiah that they've been waiting for to liberate them from all the woke garbage they've had shoved down their unwilling throats. They can finally be their nasty hateful selves.

[republianmushroom]

14. The people that need assistance are out of the womb,

therefor, they are own their own. No assistance, republicans not interest, the republican play book.

16. It gives them a little thrill to know Americans are going to starve

They are led by a pedo who has gone bonkers out of his head with dementia. They follow a psycho who likes hurting people. He doesn't know where he is. He can't speak intelligently or even in complete sentences. But they let him starve Americans because it gets their rocks off.

Think of a serial killer who murders people because it's a creepy little turn on. That's the idiots who are carrying out pedo Trump's assault on Americans. They are the ones who act out pedo Trump's demented fantasies of making Americans suffer and die.

While those Americans starve, it's good to know Walmart losses $65 million each day Americans don't get their money for food. Let's see what that does to Walmart stock. Misery loves company.
