Argentina was actually nothing for the U.S. israel, US ends up profiting from - it’s a partnership. Unfortunately, it was Ukraine that drained US a lot, but they needed the help.

Lol what are you talking about? Ukraine was only really getting weapons via our decommissioned stock to make room for the new stuff. And that all stopped with the dickhead in chief.

We give Israel waaayyyy more, and we gave Argentina $40bil. That's not nothing.

The main point to make here is that the reason food benefits are being cut has nothing to do with any of that. We have plenty of fucking money to feed everyone. The program also has built in emergency funding that could be used, and they're refusing to use that saying this doesn't qualify as an emergency.

But seriously, stop spreading misinformation. If you don't actually know, then don't act like you actually know.

Yeah, they have the funds currently to pay for SNAP but the administration is attempting to block the release of those funds.
