I am not American... But I have to say, this sounds just so comically evil it seems something only a badly written cartoon villain would say, like "I will kick all puppies and banish chocolate"

They get their votes by hurting people. It's what their base demands.
that's a weird priority to have... even weirder to be so proud to announce it
Profits are priority over children being able to eat, right? Makes sense to me! /s
This is just plain cruel. But I think they know that.
For a lot of kids, especially those whose families struggle financially, the free school meal is what they have to eat that day, and this would take even that away.
Horrible.
Vote em out! not voting is complacency. Not voting is showing that this is acceptable.
I'm not saying voting is the only action needed, but it is an absolute bear minimum.

You see, the issue is if you spend money to guarantee children aren't going hungry then that money isn't going into the pockets of some billionaire instead. And they just can't handle that.
Absolutely ridiculous and cruel. But not surprising for Republicans Their mindset of "I got mine, screw everybody else" is so terrible.
So depriving children of food is a "priority" for them. I don't know how to describe that other than "disgraceful".

Using public funds to help people? Not on the GOP's watch.
The cruelty truly is the point with republicans.
How anyone with any empathy could ever support these politicians is beyond me.
Always think about the children, except when it's something that directly impacts the lives of children.
this is unfortunate to say the least. Its hard to decide if Republicans have been cartoon villains all along or if they just began to be more honest. Sad thing is will it even stop folks from voting for them? lmao
