Watch Rep Brandon Gill(TX) make this shill squirm like a pig in a slaughterhouse.
This clown is spinning and trying to get out of a simple direct question.
This is response to another thread on OT:

quote:
Rep. Brandon Gill asked Gina Plata-Niño, Director of SNAP Policy and Advocacy for the Food Research and Action Center, why her organization advocates that SNAP benefits cover sugary sodas like Coca-Cola, and eventually arrives at the questions: "Do organizations who profit off of food stamps fund your organization or businesses?" "Does General Mills fund your organization?"
"I don't have access to that information," the witness said.
"I do," Gill said. "It's right here. They do fund your organization. Do they profit off of food stamps?"
"Retailers are the major beneficiaries. That's where EBT dollars are utilized," the witness said.
"Yes, and they're profiting off of your advocacy. Do you think that that's a conflict of interest?" Gill asked, getting no response. "I think most people think that's a conflict of interest. I know you don't want to answer. My time is up."

He is a wonderful follow. Hopefully eventually our president. Dude keeps receipts.

It’s great except none of these people ever get in trouble. Nothing happens

He has an excellent ability to ask a question with an undertone of "you're an absolute retard, I'm about to prove it to everyone."

If he doesn't go the way of the young guns and Gowdy..Gill should be President one day.

Yeah, since fraud doesn't seem to be a concern for the current one any longer.
Maybe if we could convince him that all the food stamp money actually went straight to Iran............

At some point someone will advocate marijuana eligibility for SNAP and the Democrats will enthusiastically justify it.

This.
No matter how egregious it seems to be, nothing happens and it’s all for show.
Also the committee members are always so arrogant as well when they ask the same questions over and over for minutes until their time ends. The only time I’ve ever seen that be legit was when someone was grilling one of the (I think) SCOTUS candidates maybe, when she wouldn’t say what a woman was because she “isn’t a doctor”’or something like that.

Big Snack Lobby strikes again.

She says there’s no data proving it’s not healthy.
There is literally all kinds of data proving it’s not healthy.
He exposes so many retards. He’s one of my favorite follows on IG.

SNAP and any other govt benefits should be for essentials only. No soda, no candy, no lobster.

Just ask how one becomes a “food security expert?”

I have a different opinion, but probably not for the reason people might think. I say let them spend it on what they want and tell them to take a hike if they come crying because they spent it all. But we know what happens, so I have no real issues with them trying to restrict what SNAP can be spent on.

Another instance of America is just such a clown show

They removed sweets and sugary food from ebt eligibility. Some judge tried to block it....they are arguing the validity of nutritional value. This isnt a criminal proceeding

Any food security expert should be able to say coke is not a food security need.

These things are performative.
Nothing happens

Their Director of SNAP policy is somehow unaware that they take money from general mills, kelloggs and walmart?

In theory, yes. In reality, well we know what will happen and who and what they will cry.
Also, their fat overweight diabetes laden butts will be at the doctor's office 3 times a month begging for all these meds, injections and ultimately needing kidney dialysis and kidney transplants that we, the taxpayers, have to pay for.
All because these idiots are chugging down 2-3 cases of soda, Doritos, ice-cream, eating crap food all day while watching soap operas and posting stupid crap on tic-tock and facebook.
And you we know who pays for all this in the end. Yep, that's right. You and I through higher taxes, increased insurance premiums...
