Can we also get rid of the 25mph school zone speed limits? Parents should be responsible for keeping their own kids safe, not the general public lmao.

We have bad guys in the executive branch. I'm a taxpayer, I'd rather 100 kids get free food that don't "need" it than 1 kid go hungry. Feed the kids, it's basic humanity and it's not that hard.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 4 points 1 day ago

Yes exactly and it's CHILDREN FFS. How can anyone be against this

Drag queen reading a story to kids: wont someone PLEASE think of the children!!!

Shutting down school lunches and food supports for children: this is fine....

Could someone please just give me a heads up when we reach "great again"?

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

It was pretty great until that catch phrase, which is the best example of "create a problem and be the solution".

[–] zib@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago

What could be greater than halting hand-outs to the unworthy who include... checks notes... children and the poors? /s

[–] lennee@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Its gonna be after all the poors die of starvation or something like that

[–] SolacefromSilence@fedia.io 5 points 2 days ago

Perhaps we should consider this modest proposal, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal

You've got to have triple commas to see the great again part.

[–] 1024_Kibibytes@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago

And the world is already great if you have triple commas, so it's just make yourself slightly richer with no actual change in a billionaire's lifestyle, no matter how well the actual economy does.

Once the orange fuck ass is gone we will be great again

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Depends... Are you white, male, wealthy, and can pretend to be a Christian?

RFKJr: "kids don't need measles vaccines, a well rounded meal is all it takes!"

Trump: "really? Let's just take all that food away, then."

[–] pzzzt@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Cause fuck kids once they're out of the womb.

[–] earphone843@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

Yes, they also want to do that.

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Which should come as no surprise, since he put kids in cages last time already.

These sociopaths have no empathy. None. They are literally inhuman in that way.

[–] CriticalMiss@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Kids don’t vote so..

[–] griff@lemmings.world 8 points 1 day ago

Stop feeding the damn billionaires

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Starving the kids to own the libs

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It's going to hit poir people hardest, regardless of race. So maybe some leopards will eat well tonight.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Quite a shameful move from him.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Children should go hungry. It builds character. /s

If they don't want to starve, there's plenty of coal to mine...

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Is he trying out for DOGE?
