You know, I tough it might be good to fact-check this screenshot. It might be missrepresenting something. So I did a little digging and it turns out that this is based on a document provided by the Republican Study Committee (about three quateres of house rebuplicans are members).
I read the Dokument document (you can find it here) and HOLY HELL THIS IS THE WORST THING I HAVE READ IN A LONG WHILE.
It's so full of lies, half-truths and so, so, so much finger pointing to the "woke socialist Biden Administration" (yes, that is a quote), so removed from reality... It was painfull to read. There is so much utter nonsense in that one document.
Anyhow. The headline is dead on. And it's far far from the worst thing that they are proposing.
I need to bang my head against a wall now untill i have erased the memory of reading this bullshit.
I mean, if you put enough effort into disincentivizeing kids from attending to school, maybe they'll go back to work in meat packing plants and coal mines like god intended!!
But, um, the first national free lunch programs were started in this country because when WWII started, the government found that the post-Great-Depression populace was so stunted from malnourishment that there was concern about recruiting enough eligible soldiers. So, does this mean Republicans no longer want a military? No more sending poor people to fight their wars?
I grew up poor and food stamps were an essential part of my childhood. I cannot believe these monsters would let anyone go without food. Absolutely disgusting.
News article title reading "Republicans Declare Banning Universal Free School Meals a 2024 Priority" followed by the first sentence of the article reading "As states across the country move to make sure students are well fed, Republicans have announced their intention to fight back."
Below the article screenshot is a picture of Henry J Waternoose III, the spider-like monster from Monsters Inc, saying "I'll starve a thousand children before I let this company get taxed"

Can I get a source on this? Because I know the GOP is Batshit, but this is cartoonishly evil, and I feel like a republican voter will immediately assume it's fake.
It's weird how cartoonishly evil the GOP's policies are, and yet they never seem to have problems getting any votes. I'm pretty sure if the GOP wanted to legalize pedophilia or wanted to just outright destroy the Earth, their base of voters wouldn't even blink. At least with Democratic policies, they are debatable, like I could see how somebody might potentially disagree with their execution. "There's a problem, and here's how we want to try to solve it." With GOP policies though, I just can't imagine who gets behind this shit, or I can imagine, but I can't believe those are actually real people.
Some here asking who are or would still vote for them, well in their eyes, they don't want to feed YOUR kid(s), they believe their kids are well fed. Only when when they are in need will they have empathy.
