They like the idea that being poor if a moral failing because this way they can justify (to themselves) not helping people. And they can think better of themselves because the rigged economic system is helping 'good' people like themselves. It's such a tell from people who claim to be moral.

I am effing enraged at orthorexic rich people telling poor people what to eat and what they get to eat. If you have never scraped coins together for food and bought food by calories/dollar, shut it.

Ghouls

She is calling this “food stamp”? She does not know what SNAP is and how it should work???

If the ketchup factory owner has paid protection money to the adminstration: yes.

So, fuck you bodega. Nice messaging going into the midterms.

The party of small government telling everybody what they should eat

Does this mean ketchup is a vegetable again?

Hell is not hot enough.

I make my own... the dogs go bananas when it's in the oven slowly drying. I have noses up to the glass and whining...

I worked at a gas station that has a handful of fresh food options. They make enough in selling gas, tobacco, lotto and coffee alone to absorb any losses from fresh and hot foods. They won't drop those items b/c it keeps the EBTs coming back for scratchers & snuff. Bodegas may be screwed, yeah.

Exactly what I came to say. Expanding the minimum = shutting it down at the edges of availability. Just like how they evicted disabled people who were under the care of medicare fraudsters rather than switching them to legit service providers.

Where do these fucking people come from, I haven't seen a foreign spaceship lately!

Another idiot member of this Cabinet🤪

The only wheel out Rollins occasionally. Usually it's with Mike Johnson functioning as a handler as she has a habit of veering into crazytown and somebody has to get a mop and bucket and clean up on aisle four.

No jelly and jerky for you!

Get bent with this horse shit

Sometimes they release air via the wrong end in public.

It's fucking heartbreaking seeing what is happening over there. I remember the first time I had to use a food bank because I had a breakdown and couldn't work, and was waiting for my benefits to come through. I felt like such a fucking loser, so humiliated. So yeah, I get it. Cruel.

But I thought a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a corn tortilla, and one other thing was enough for a meal. Now we need 28 other things?

are you a bot or just seriously this retarded?

Limiting access to food kills ppl…

In other words, they want to close the mom & pop stores! 🤬

🤮 maga are ridiculously stupid

So ketchup isn't a fruit anymore?

What am I missing here? I thought you could buy most any food item?

Buc-ee’s customers are going to be hardest hit.

Among other issues, isn’t this going to fuck over small business badly?

The jerky in this discussion is Brooke

You can't buy jelly?! Growing up when we didn't have money, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were our staple.

"We hate Koreans"

Is ketchup still a vegetable or have republicans broken from Reagan on that?

Bitch People are starving!

Because as the people were moaning about hunger and clamoring for food, Christ said to the boy with the fish and loaves: "Is that levain bread? And absolutely no shell fish!"

I'm so sick of their smug self-righteousness.

Yeah, came here to say this because, seriously, it's one of the best proteins available since it doesn't spoil for ages

Brooke Rollins, the secretary of AGRICULTURE cannot correctly identify a food with protein. 🤭

Cruelty is feeding your kids on chips and cookies.

Beef jerky isn’t protein? Wth???

The suffering is the point

That is so ridiculously unimportant. He’s spending that money on the ballroom-I’d rather people have jelly and jerky everyday🤬

Ketchup as a vegetable Reagan administration determined that eliminating one vegetable from the school lunch program will cut $1.5 billion in costs, using a packet of ketchup to count as a vegetable.

Even Cruella De Vil is watching this going “Come on Brooke that’s way over the top”

No more jelly? We don’t have jelly money for people now?

Waiting for a “real food” state dinner. Waiting for white house chef to serve only “real food”. Eat food, not too much, only plants.

So, smaller retailers in food desert areas will be impacted, not large retailers. Golly, I wonder what the demographics of those areas look like? Also - if people selling food stamps is REALLY that big of a problem, how many food stamps equal one insider oil futureds deal?

Are the 28 defined? Canned fruit and veg, each individual type could qualify. Still not required to keep a lot 'stocked'. It's just BS hoop jumping.

I remember when they wanted to impeach Obama because the First Lady said vegetables are good for you

Incredible stuff from an administration that manages to combine arrogance, ignorance, and dangerous levels of incompetence into one nonstop performance.

Brook Rollins came up w that meal " One piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a corn tortilla, and one other thing..." BEFORE Trump launched this war when consumers complained of rising prices, remember @mika-brzezinski.bsky.social @kasie.bsky.social @aliciamenendez.bsky.social ???

we all know the cruelty is the point etc but this protein obsessed admin axing jerky for eligibility is nuts. and there are plenty of reduced sugar jams and jellies that are perfectly healthy to eat and contain lots of real fruit. but they just want people to starve i think, so

Government overreach

Heaven forbid that those freeloading poors might engage in the luxury of putting jelly on their bread.

Jerky is a really efficient and stable protien??? Its whole thing is that it keeps really well and is a protien???

That’s a completely bullshit statistic. It’s ridiculously untrue. Oh, there might be that many people without access to the cheese dept at Westside Mkt or Zabar’s, but they are all within range of more than one or two real supermarkets. And lots else. Who comes up with these stats? White people?

Nothing says I know crime more than a white woman wearing a neck scarf…

Follow up question: What are the 28 items exactly, Brooke?

THIS IGNORANT, HATEFUL TWAT DOESN'T KNOW WHAT JERKY IS.

💀💀💀

In a righteous world Brooke Rollin and all of her family members, close associates and their family members will experience hunger the way Brooke has decided poor families and their children should starve.

I knew what you meant.

Brooke the crook

All of this would translate to grocery stores incurring higher operating cost from refurbishing their backrooms, higher electricity and water consumption bills, and the cost of securing more produce to meet that regulatory demand. Are grocery stores going to do that? Oh, hell to the fuck no.

...."the food stamp"?

No greater sin in the US than to be poor.

I honestly don't know which I find more weird. The vapid smiling as they lie to your face, or someone looking into the cam with disdain and anger, coming off like you just spat on his grandmother. Neither inspires confidence.

Nothing but vegetable-based jelly for you poors from now on!

what about ketchup? will it still be a vegetable?

I CANT listen to her. Not now not EVER, REPULSIVE FEMALE

“Dried meat is not real protein.” -this dipshit lady

I'm glad the Trump administration is making it harder for low income folks to make PB & J sandwiches for their kids. #MAGA

GOP closing loopholes on feeding the hungry but leaving gaps in gun laws big enough for a semi to drive through. On brand.

This doesn’t address food deserts at all. You think urban minimarts can stock raw meat and fresh produce for people who don’t have cars and can’t drive 20 minutes into the suburbs to find a full grocery store? As usual, Republican policy build with magical thinking, not facts.

Amazing! How does that help food prices or gas prices??? 🙄

A lot of food stamp recipients “don’t have access to a Whole Foods.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

They are reviving every 80's trope they can find. That's sad, it isn't even original.

You swear you helpin' somebody. Get tf outta here with that micromanaging, white supremacist bs!

This is a rabbit hole we don’t need to waste time with. Stop means testing & shift our welfare net to UBI We are arguing about ALL the wrong things here!

Soooo many Nazis…

Real priorities for this administration…… Ballrooms. Ban on jelly, and jerky. Golden statues, and arches. Reopening waterways that were previously opened before you started a war. Single-handedly destroying an economy that you inherited, that was the envy of the world. The Art Of The Deal……. 🤦‍♂️

Does this change affect access to roadkill raccoon penis?

Why is 28 such a magic number? How did they arrive at that requirement? What scientific process did they follow? Or is that the figure that they calculated would make stores give up on accepting EBT?

This will make even greater food deserts in the city. BTW, jerky is a high protein low-fat choice for a quick boost.

odd, considering the Secretary of HHS looks to be a piece of human jerky

Cruelty is the point.

Thx Broccoli $2.99 a head Cauliflower $4.99 a head Green peppers $2.99 # Etc Etc Etc Oh yeh My daughter and grandson are lactose intolerant- their milk $4.99 half gallon Thx again

What will change is that fewer retailers will accept food stamps, and it will be harder for the poor to find food.

A piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a tortilla, and something something.

also they want people so poor they're too desperate to report employers breaking the law. or just straight up starved to death.

You can share the whole blog.

It's been *food...

You can’t live on it, and these stores should sell other kinds of proteins.

It is food.

It's not a substitute because it is food

I know you're just here to troll through the comments but it is literally just meat, which is FOOD

What do you think it is?

No jelly for your PB&J

Really sticking it to people who live in low income areas where grocery store chains can’t be bothered to open stores.

The government, in your bedroom and in your kitchen.

Can they afford it is the true question.

how do you cook meat when you are homeless or living in your car

Love how they try to out-asshole one another.
