10. My MAGA brother's only grandchild was born with a disability this past year.

His daughter was on WIC and SNAP. Both have been cut and she is back to work. Brother's wife (solid Dem) opened a restricted daycare to provide for daycare for her Granddaughter and limited others. Apparently she can access some WIC funds this way and perform the daycare duties. But they are mid-seventies...

I still hear no regrets or apologies for voting for this from my brother. Nor an acknowledgement of why this occurred.
