    It’s probably SNAP. Wic’s mostly for peanut butter, eggs, and milk, etc for mothers and children under 5. But to your point some of these DSA candidates’ platforms include Housing is a right, and advocacy for universal basic income. This would further erode the incentive to work for unskilled...

    And you don’t have to be an experienced muckraker to find the quid pro quo for the jet. All you need is a room temperature IQ and access to the Internet. From Qatar’s seemingly overnight transformation from terrorist supporter to respected mediator in peace talks, to Trump family’s multibillion...

    Interesting link. More and more Americans are waking up to the fact that it’s a rigged game. Especially younger ones. Most of us on this board are of the age where we could buy a decent house and still put money away for college funds. What we took for granted is out of reach for many if not...

    While the Wong Kim Ark case establishes over 120 years of legal precedent, it’s worth noting that the 14th Amendment had its origins rooted in citizenship for freed slaves and their children. undocumented immigrants and the citizenship status of any offspring was not on the minds of the 14th’s...

    It makes sense that without voter ID there could be and would be massive voter fraud. Despite that, it’s never been proven as widespread, and even more than that, voter fraud is not even on the radar for most voters. Affordability is the number 1 issue. Trump bungled another kitchen table issue...

    People on both sides are okay with lies, as long as they’re the right lies. One of the most damaging things about both sides of the political spectrum vis a vis the news now is not just the lies but the stories the outlets refuse to cover. CNN with Biden’s declining mental state, Fox News with...

    Viewers fled because they can’t bear to hear anything that conflicts with their existing world view. Or even more likely, they never watched at all once the new ownership took over. 60 minutes may have had great ratings, but it’s hardly been the impartial arbiter of truth lately you present here.

    If Cbs’ new ownership is trying to “appease” Trump, seems like a strange story to break. I guess maybe they’re not completely bought and paid for after all. https://www.npr.org/2025/09/12/nx-s1-5537152/cbs-news-ellison-steps-appease-trump Of course, it could be argued that once the scale of...

    “Or had a hand in what happened with Charlie Kirk’s death”. I’ll probably regret this, but could you elaborate?

    Trump is a megalomaniac. He would never let another country steal his glory, especially one the size of New Jersey. It would be a bad look for the US if the IDF did its dirty work. Like I’ve said before: even if Trump was unwilling to put boots on the ground, he should have never broadcast it...

    Candace received the coveted Antisemite of the Year award in 2024. She traffics in the usual Jews control Hollywood and the media schtick, but what really put over the top was her assertion that Jews controlled the American slave trade.

    If Black students were being assaulted, harassed, and denied access to parts of their campus, would you be so quick to chalk up protestors’ Title 6 violations to youthful indiscretion? First you suggest that antisemitism isn’t really an issue on campuses. When presented with anecdotal evidence...

    If Iran doesn’t comply with the mou, which you present as a foregone conclusion and one in which I’m inclined to agree with, would you support American troops on the ground to effect regime change?

    “I disagree that Zionism is a proxy for Jews” Not always, but often. In the example used on college encampments, they are labeled Zionist free zones. But they don’t ask Jewish students if they’re Zionist. They are asked whether or not they are Jewish. Therefore, a proxy.
