It's safe to say the right on the wrong side of this! From @Reagan and I quote "Ha, they've even got the Dems doing something they didn't do before: Calling for the release of the Epstein files. LOL!" What's the R's have to hide? We all know

Have you made groceries lately or shopped at Walmart. Didn’t expect grocery to rise as high as it has. Try purchasing a part from a part store.

I expected him to attempt to be honest and respect the constitution. He promised that he would end the war. He promised to fix an economy that already thriving. Why do you and others pretend you don’t see all the corruption and illegal business deals he continues to do? Obama would be housed at a Maximum prison if he and his family would have done anything similar to what baby con and his family has done with the market and business deals with foreign countries.

From the article: "Long plagued by waste and corruption, the nation’s massive food stamp program has reached a new low with a multi-million-dollar fraud and bribery scheme abetted by an insider at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the agency that administers the scandal-plagued welfare program. It gets better. The longtime USDA employee worked in a special division responsible for identifying fraud—which is rampant—within the food stamp program, which was renamed Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by the Obama administration to eliminate the stigma of receiving public assistance. Her name is Arlasa Davis and federal prosecutors recently charged her and five of her accomplices for operating “one of the largest food stamp frauds in U.S. history.” For more than five years Davis and her conspirators ran a “sprawling fraud and bribery scheme that generated over $66 million” in unauthorized food stamp transactions, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) found that Davis abused her position and privileged access to confidential government databases to help the others in the ring embezzle food stamp benefits by driving tens of millions of dollars in fraudulent transactions." .[Hidden Content] @Big girl Thoughts?

That is not true. He was using existing laws to deport.

Like I've said -- knowing Trump, it may be, could be, a game. Ha, they've even got the Dems doing something they didn't do before: Calling for the release of the Epstein files. LOL! [Hidden Content]

That's why a smart criminal would've never run for President. He would've moved in silence.

Wasn't he deporting people without them having due process? The director of Homeland Security didn't know what Habeas corpus meant.

SmashMouth started following SNAP Fraud

No doubt. We grew up poor as church mice after my parents divorced. My Mom refused food stamps, or housing assistance. She said as long as we could get by getting clothes from the Treasure house (donated clothing) and grow a garden and things of that nature, she would never consider assistance. And she never did. We had very little, but we got summer & after school jobs to help out my Mom with bills and buy our own school lunches. I've always thought that made us a stronger family and us kids stronger individuals. Even though she's gone now, I still thank her for that lesson all the time. I have no issue with assistance for those that need it. Emphasis on the last 5 words of that sentence...

I could of drove nicer vehicles and my son could have went without.......but that is not what good people do, especially if they are receiving benefits

Bigger than the minority leader threatening to expose ICE agents? Hakeem Jeffries Threatens to Expose ICE Agents' Identities to Cartels, MS-13, TdA. If he follows through -- this is a crime! I bet he doesn't! So, the important question is: Who is he trying to pander to? This is a bad look! [Hidden Content]

I have never heard that....link At the same time, if that was true, couldn't they just pretend to be a cop?

I think we would of known by now with as many leaks that came out of the Bien Admin. Trump also banned him from Mar-A-Lago for hitting on a teenage daughter of another member. Trump never drank or used drugs and stayed has stayed out of "social trouble". It was not until he ran for President that lawfare was used against him. This will be just like when the Democrats were after Trump and his tax returns. They alllll thought he was hiding something and that would be the thing that sinks him. The tax returns were released and not a PEEP out of the Democrats

I'll give you that one, he was a good man

Yes he may have been the worst president of my lifetime. He was also easily the best ex-president. No one did more good with their time after being in office than that guy. If I could bet on one ex-president for sure being in heaven, it’s that guy.
-
That can be a problem, but it’s not why the dems want them unmasked. It’s what tvc said….doxxing. People have been impersonating cops forever, but with the internet and so many ways to identify people, plus the high profile of the ICE arrests, protecting their faces is sensible.

I had a person with which I associated that turned out to be real creep. Everyone who knew him, including myself, disowned him. I won’t go into details, but it was bad. It’s kinda like the serial killer’s next door neighbors who were most surprised when he was caught. I would guess that billionaires run in the same circles and have mutual acquaintances. If you find one to be a bad apple, you discard him. Trump knowing Epstein is no secret, but I believe it was before Epstein even owned the island. If I am wrong and Trump was involved, then get him. I could never back anyone who would do such a thing. Carter may have been a good man, but for a president, he had no backbone.

#1. There is no need for a comprehensive immigration bill right now - We are just following the laws that congress has passed. You do believe in following the law and not picking and choosing which ones we enforce, right? If not, I guess you would be ok if New York went back to stop and frisk......? #2. The parents have a choice of leaving the child or taking them with them. Every time an America citizen is arrested and have children they are being separated from their parents......the big news flash, is don't come here illegally and you won't have to worry about it.

How do you know that the vehicles are new?. They could be used, but there are some people with a decent job that receives SNAPS because their kid is really sick. Yes, a family with a disabled child may be eligible for SNAP benefits, even if their income is considered middle class, although the term "middle class" can be subjective. Here's why and how a family with a disabled child might qualify: Special Rules for Disabled Individuals: Households that include a person with a disability are subject to specific SNAP eligibility rules that can make it easier to qualify, including a different income test than those without a disabled member. Net Income Test: A household with a disabled member only needs to meet the net income test, not the gross income test. Net income is the household's total income after certain allowable deductions are subtracted. Allowable Deductions: SNAP rules allow for deductions from gross income, which can lower a household's net income and potentially make them eligible. Examples of these deductions include: Medical Expenses: A significant deduction for households with disabled members are medical expenses exceeding $35 per month that are not reimbursed by insurance or other third parties. This is particularly helpful for families with disabled children who often have significant medical costs. Standard Deduction: A standard deduction is applied to every household, based on the number of members. Earned Income Deduction: A portion (20%) of earned income (like wages) is deducted. Dependent Care Deduction: When needed for work, training, or education. Excess Shelter Costs: If shelter costs exceed a certain percentage of the household's income after other deductions. Asset Limits: SNAP also has resource limits, but households with a disabled member are allowed a higher asset limit ($4,500) compared to households without a disabled member ($3,000). Categorical Eligibility: In some cases, if all household members receive certain benefits, such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the household may be automatically eligible for SNAP. In summary: Even if a family's initial gross income appears to be too high for SNAP, the deductions, especially for medical expenses related to the disabled child, can significantly lower their net income, potentially making them eligible for benefits.
