She canned them all.

It is amazing how f*cking stupid she is.

Someday they'll be plowing them under to make room for farming.

from the taxpayers and even those future medical services that are going to be paid by the citizens of this country ..............give every fucking dollar back...............your a grifter and very stupid one at that........... with your mind set of let them eat cake.............a strong society is a well fed and educated society .....................but you haven't figured that out YET.............she really has shit for brains ........

There is a disconnect between the people and the Ruling Class that may be getting a bit dangerous.

"Let them eat cat food"

That's what it sounded like to me.

The point is is that they see the rubes as less than human.

What could go wrong?

But I really need to read-up on the French Revolution.

and the spike in strokes/heart attacks from sodium spikes exceeding the maximum daily limit, should crush the patient's health care budget, if any, and keep the local ER's, if any, busy.

Canned foods cost more than fresh foods so what is the advantage of food banks purchasing canned foods over fresh foods? Not to mention that fresh foods are generally healthier. As was already pointed out, a very large portion of the food given out by food banks is already canned foods. Is this person really as stupid as she sounds?

But, that too will be skyrocketing in price.

from the Senate

Plus whatever she rakes in on the side.

"Let them eat cake!"

… a person has too much microplastics in their head?

until the FDA said they couldn't.

Eat canned cake. Fruit cake is too sane for them and richer than they deserve.

This modern Marie Antwitnette shrieks! 🤬🤬
Tell you what Deb, how about you demonstrate how it’s done after you are shown the door by your soon to be starving constituents many of whom are farmers who now but soon won’t produce abundant fresh produce. Heartless, Clueless bitch Rethuglican but then I repeat myself 😡😡

Sorting out the peasants from their betters by what food they are permitted.

What happens to the farms that have been supplying them? There is a chain reaction here that seems to be missed by these assholes.

Prices are gonna SKYROCKET!

Politicos First 100 Days Breakfast Series. Irony is lost on them.

BTW, what about the effects on local farmers? Isn't RFK worried about the dietary effects on health?

and her willingness to SACRIFICE the farmers in HER STATE for getting more business for their produce in order to bend the knee (and this is on TOP of the tariffs).

(unless she is assuming they will get bailed out like was done the last time during 45's first term)

They are out of touch. Undoubtedly. But they are too stupid to just keep their mouths shut. Stupid bitch. She should have to eat Chef Boyardee Ravioli for a year.

With a couple of these for "variety" -

a federal or state lawmaker - that anyone getting EBT benefits should only be allowed to buy canned meat and fish, and not fresh? The intent was clearly to make sure they had grossly inferior diets. Never got that bill passed.

EDIT - Just found an article on it. It was Iowa Republicans, and it was crazier than just suggesting canned meat instead of fresh:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2023/01/20/snap-cuts-iowa-republicans-sliced-bread/11090446002/

EDITING AGAIN - I did a search to see if Ernst could be linked directly to that insane bill in her state's legislature, but couldn't find anything, though I doubt they'd've tried this without her approval.

I try to eat mostly fresh, but I do keep a stock of canned tomatoes, beans, tuna, sardines, on hand. They're not the same as fresh - and I do check the sodium content before I buy - but they're handy for a quick meal. Cooking with fresh fruits and vegetables is more demanding than just opening big cans and slapping the contents on plates, and it's harder to standardize since different parts of the country will have different fresh food availability at different times. But why should school lunches have to be the same across the country? We're a diverse country: IMHO, the appropriate Federal agencies should set overall nutritional guidelines and let local schools meet them with some creativity, using fresh fruits and vegetables when they can get them. And no, French fries and corn chips do not count as vegetables.

so that the money can be given to billionaires instead.
