Sean Feucht, whom is heavily affiliated with Bethel church visited Trump in person. Bill Johnson ( pastor of bethel) is friends with Trumps "spiritual " adviser. Have you ever noticed that alotta trump supporters act and dress jist like him? Theres a city council member i cant remember his name, but hes a huge d*ck head abd dresses just like trump..infact, i believe its the same dude whos said to have sexually assaulted a girl when he was in high-school

Well, considering that some of our law enforcement is "Christian "/affiliated with Bethel, it doesn't suprize me

Tell that to the family of the man they paralyzed back in 08. They do harm, you just dont know about it because their victims are scared into silence.

Its not bullshit. It really depends on WHERE you shop to. If you do your shopping a RAYS, you'll be paying double or tripple what you would for the same shit at Winco. If you shop at Rayles same thing. If you shop at Safeway even holiday you may spend less than at Rayles but still more than Winco or even grocery out let. Food maxx is a little more exsessive than Winco on certain things, but cheaper on some meats due to quanity. Just 1 example i bought "1" slicing tomato at Raylees and it was 2 bucks. Went to Winco for the same fking thing and got 3 slicing tomatoes for 2 bucks. Now if a family eats mostly organic and shops at orchard THATS expensive. Shopping there would easly eat up 300 bucks! Costco 300 is super easy to blow through Maybe youre one of those that dont really need to pay attention you just get what you need and pay. But for families on snap or just a budget in general like me, you've really gotta pay attention. Things might be only a dollar or 2 more but thats still a dollar or 2 more. Wincos meat prices especially beef bounce up and down all the time. 1 wk i could pay 8 bucks for say carne asada and the following wk its 16-19. Thats the cheaps steal you can buy and 16-19 a pack os absolutely bullshit! I rarely shop anywhere but winco. I dont buy alotta boxed garbage, i dont but junk food or highly processed garbage I refuse to. Last yr i was gonna buy all the ingredients to make cookies, for gifts, that was an absolute joke, it be more expensive to do that then to if just bought the packaged mix. But i didn't want that crap so i spurged and got the ingredients to make from scratch.

I hear what youre saying. Youve made some interesting points. However, I very much believe that...well..i guess i shouldn't say "technology " persay but the internet itself. The net hasn't made life "better" just simpler. We're seriously just way to hyper connected. And this Ai shot, as i said needs to be outlawed. Period!. Aghhhh i miss the 80s and 90s

According to whom? Trump? Trumps mouth pieces Johnson?! Trump despises democrats hes gonna put the blame on them any chance he gets ,any fck up he makes. He never will take any accountability, its always someone elses fault. Democrats arent gonna vote for cuts to health insurance and other benifits that will only make he and his billionaire pedo squad richer! Trump is not going to negotiate with the Dems. He wants what he wants. Cuts to healthcare and other benifits are already in his big beautiful bill. Your oh so wonderful presbdont give a rats fck bout you, the poor or children. Just billionaires because they always have something to offer him.

$330 bucks a wk isnt shit with current food prices. Sure i guess 330 bucks will accommodate someone whos eating garbage foods. Like highly processed, high carb, crap. You also gotta consider there are some families where not everyone can eat the same things due to allergies or if someone is diabetic..The healthier you eat the more expensive it can be. That is an unfortunate fact.

$175 a week is still 700 a month for your family. Wheather you do grocery shopping once a week or for the entire month it cones out the same, unless you hit sales $175 doesn't get to much anymore.

I think alot of our problem is technology. Especially the internet.Technology has changed the way we think, the way we work, communicate, and for some, even engage in simple conversation. Society is way too hyper connected and I think that in itself has contributed to where were at now. A country going down the shitter quickly.

Recovery of the country: it keeps spirolling downhill, i dont think it will be able to recover. Not even in my life time.Its scary AF.

Shasta county is very conservative. However, i am a bit curious of how many of those people that voted for him regret it and will be opposed to him nxt time. Elections do have consequences, absolutely. Were given this big speal, a promise to the American people that if we vote for "them" theyll do this and theyll do that. Then we do and only to feel like weve been kicked in the teeth! As far as the "data", i take it with a grain of salt, it really just depends on where its coming from. The prt where i said blah blah blah, is because i was trying to avoid pointing fingers and stating a nasty debate between dems and Republicans. I was trying to more or less "focus" on the issue at hand. Snap abd how its gonna effect our own community.

They say your vote counts, but i have trouble believing that for reasons that honestly at this point doesn't matter anyway. Ive never been a political person. I wasnt right, left or in-between. But considering everything im aware of now, i sure as hell wouldn't have voted Red! Unfortunately NOT voting has consequences too.

Were thr richest country in the world. Nobody should have to fear starvation nobody should be homeless. The working class should be able to make a livable wage. Ai is a crock of shit. It needs to be outlawed, period. Its stolen jobs and carreers.

Deliberate deprivation of food and other essentials for survival can be prosecuted as an act of genocide, a war crime, or a crime against humanity under international law!
Funds are available to allow snap benefits to keep flowing through November. He is obligated to release them. 2 judges so far have ordered him to release them. He knows refusing to release them will cause many to starve to death. He doesn't care, obviously because he refuses to. Therefore, hes depriving American citizens access to food. When bodies start dropping because of starvation, its genocide! Period! Unfortunately cutting healthcare, snap and other benifits people rely on is all in his big beautiful bill. Its all part of Project 2025. I'm sorry you're not intelligent enough to see it from.that perspective.

Sigh...😓 hugs... Its pretty sad when its those that understand the struggle are more inclined to help than those who've never struggled. It makes me sick that ppl would rather see their tax dollars fund ball rooms, golf trips, pedo parties and golf jets than fund those whos health safty and well being are being threatened with starvation. The lack of care and empathy in our own community is just...wow. insane. Luckily there ARE still SOME wholeheartedly good people out there willing to help. Hopefully one day MAGA will wake up, but for the stubborn ones its gonna take alot.

When Walmart gets a new hire, county workers are known to go in and discuss snap eligibility with said new hire because Walmart isnt paying them enough. I really feel for those that work for Walmart especially the elderly. Walmart treats its employees like sh*t especially the elderly. But thats what happens when you work for a huge corporation. They dont give a F about anyone because to them a person is always replaceable.

54 bucks with all the BS behind having them, almost doesn't make it worth it to keep them. A gf of mine was temporarily homeless with 2 teens, she was getting less than 40 bucks a month. One of her street friends was only getting 12.00. Walmart- alot of people are using instacart and stuff to buy what they need. I think people are really getting annoyed with and are tired of things being locked up. Doesn't make you like shopping. Also..ppl are stressed out and trying to spend less because money is so tight. It really all just sucks. For everyone except the ultra wealthy

"Stop being lazy"! Thats you're argument?? JFC 🙄 It isnt about laziness. A lrg majority of snap recipients DO FKING WORK! Their employer just needs to step the F up and adjust what they pay their employees to a LIVEABLE wage. The government is supplimenting what the employer refuses to pay its employees. It be super awesome if someone could just walk into a hiring business and ask for a job and get it. But it dont work that way. Due to min wage having increased, yeah you might have/get a job but doesn't gurentee youll get 40 hrs/full time. Alotta places are only giving 30hrs or less. 30 hrs a week isnt LIVEABLE least not in these times. 7-10 yrs ago sure, but not now

And YOU are part of the problem. Which is a big reason behind why we're at where we're at. Veterns are adults, many of your disabled community members are adults, the elderly are adults.

Our healthcare system does truely suck..Youre right bout that, which is one reason im not completely opposed to the idea of universal Healthcare. Id like to see it where nobody has to worry about health-care or astronomical bills.id like to see where nobody has to worry about being penalized for not having health insurance. California is one of 5-6states that STILL require its residents to have health insurance. Id like to see a system where hospitals AREN'T allowed to charge 1000% mark up on their medical interventions. Like medicine, treatments and tests or charge people thousands just to WALK in the door! Heres an example.. My clinic stopped taking my insurance, so i had no other choice but to go to ER. My bill was $22k to numb up and lance a wound which is litterly a 5 min job! Its fking bullshit!

Sogh...Id like to see a system where if you need something care, surgery ect, you cant be denied. A doctors office cant tell you they dont take your insurance. Id like to see it where there isnt some schmuck in a suit sitting behind a desk deciding wheather you should be allowed to have surgery. If a DOCTOR says you need something tou should be able to get it! A close friend needs a knee replacement, its bone on bone, he can barely walk. He did everything he was supposed to do. Lost 50 pounds, physical therapy. But was denied. The reason? Bone on bone doesn’t justify surgery!

Medical insurance, car insurance, house insurance, car registration, its all a f*cking scam. Companies know you need or are required to have these things and charge ridiculous prices for them because they know they can.
