Forty-three days into the government shutdown, panic set in as certain subsidies began to dry up. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) garnered the most attention, especially among Democrats, under the rally cry of ’42 million people being denied their SNAP benefits!’
Posts went viral of people claiming to resort to violence and chaos if the program closes during the shutdown.
Well, this is really going to make them mad:
The Dept. of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said earlier today that the fraud they found in the states that complied with the data request will “give us a platform and a trajectory to fundamentally rebuild this program.” The “rebuild” would include requiring every recipient to reapply and ensure “that they are literally vulnerable and cannot survive without it.”
Now, if only they would do the same thing with voter rolls.

Sec. Rollins sent letters to each U.S. state as soon as she took office asking them to submit data on recipients of federal taxpayer subsidies in an effort to clean out potential fraud. 29 states complied with their datasets, however, those that did not comply sued to protect the data from oversight.
In September, a federal judge in California sided with 21 states and Washington D.C. on blocking that data. Of the 21 states that sued, all but Nevada (Gov. Lombardo) have a Democrat governor (AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, KY, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, NV, NJ, NM, NY, OR, RI, WA, WI)
On November 12th, Sec Rollins disclosed that of the 29 states that complied, they found at least 500,000 people receiving benefits two times under the same name, 5,000 dead people, and “80% of the able-bodied, meaning they can work…and chose not to work.”
BREAKING: In a jaw-dropping revelation, Sec. Brooke Rollins found 5,000 DEAD PEOPLE getting SNAP, and 500,000 PEOPLE getting SNAP “2 times under the same name.”
And that’s just what they’ve confirmed…

Accounts like @shipwreckshow, @libsoftiktok, and @EBTofTikTok have been sharing hundreds of videos purportedly showing fraud, waste and/or abuse, almost always originally posted by the recipients themselves.
A viral video from LibsofTikTok shows a woman playing a recording stating she has $23,235 in her SNAP account in New Jersey.

The ‘work requirement’ for SNAP in the One Big Beautiful Bill kicked on Nov. 1.
The ONLY way to remove the festering rot of this program and so many others is to start with a blank slate.
Dump the ENTIRE system and require re-registration with proof of citizenship and… https://t.co/ZkXsXsQgDv
