I applied and they also told me I made too much. I was on short term disability for a year after a near fatal car crash. My monthly pay was reduced to ~60% of my normal pay and I still had regular bills to on top of health insurance so I could continue going to the doctor for surgeries (thanks stupid US health insurance). They wanted me to reduce my monthly disability so I would qualify.

So twice a week, I stood in line at a church that gave out free food with metal in my back and a piss bag strapped to my leg for my failing kidney.

Fuck Stephen Miller and his little rat faced shit for brains (no offense to rats, they are actually pretty cute).

lol what a dick. he knows damn well that what little remains of US social safety nets requires ludicrous means testing and ages for approval.

these guys truly are a death cult, it’s grotesque. US starving Cubans, murdering our own citizens in the streets, while providing cover for Israel bombing and torturing all their neighbors…wonder how all this is going to end.

The guy who (from online stories) rushed out during a women's foot race during the last stretch to show men are better? If I recall that was him in high school.

Also thought it was a good idea to show up on tv with spray hair in Trump's first term. It'd be funnier if he wasn't basically Himmler or whichever relevant Nazi.

Then apply stephen, and let us know how many millions you get a month from SNAP.

Oh don't believe this bitch. She makes up everything and anyone. And yes the rumors are true she can kick the hell out of any man. Once a day she grabs her sword and screams: I HAVE THE POWER and for at least 4 hours a day lays waste to all evil in this world. If you really want to get her "goat" send her cute and adorable dog pics she really hates that. Love you mod mate hope this made at least you smirk. Much love.

Plenty of money for Trump to spend six trillion a year tho. It's great to see Republicans caring about spending.
