The machine needs to be fed.

that's a weird priority to have... even weirder to be so proud to announce it

The cruelty is the point with Republicans. The cruelty always has been the point. The cruelty always WILL be the point.

So depriving children of food is a "priority" for them. I don't know how to describe that other than "disgraceful".

Pure cruelty. Our taxes ment to be used to help people and this means more then paving roads (which in the US isn't done). I'm sick of this idea the government needs to cut spending but then they just cut social programs that is the whole point of having a government.....

The cruelty truly is the point with republicans.

You see, the issue is if you spend money to guarantee children aren't going hungry then that money isn't going into the pockets of some billionaire instead. And they just can't handle that.

Always think about the children, except when it's something that directly impacts the lives of children.
