If tweet fails to load, click here. I've read where they've cashed them in to use for hairweaves/eyelashes/manicures...Thank Trump for putting an end to it.

Everyday, I learn some dystopian fact about where people are allowed to spend government funds

I think he might've had to mention tanning beds so the MSM couldn't declare that his statement was racist.

I believe the safety net is too broad. "Fortune telling"

The fact one guy in Florida is talking about this, instead of the entire Republican establishment, tells you all you need to know about the modern Republican party.

They just run it up as something else.
Cigarettes, nah just put it as eggs. And if you investigate the brown folks running convenience stores, you are racist.
I thought everyone knew this type of fraud was going on.

People are able to use TANF and EBT for this kind of stuff? WTF, and why are we just now stopping it? Louisiana needs to be next

Wasn't that long ago the EBT cards were being used for cash in strip clubs, liquor stores and casinos....

Remember when a couple weeks ago James O'Keefe exposed massive EBT fraud in New York City and the thread about it was roundly shat upon by morons on this board blaming the journalist exposing the fraud for people not being arrested?

Ebt people don’t use tanning beds

I remember that. It was the same ones who complain nothing is happening.

Right. O'Keefe said that his expose would lead to reform. This would be that reform he mentioned.
Do you think anyone who was shitting on it at the time will admit they were wrong? Of course not. They're cowards.

You can't and you've never been allowed at least since the advent of the EBT card . Now if you can cash them inor have a cash option,, then.......but you cannot directly. So if Ron DeSantis is going about spouting falsehoods......he should do a better job.

Schools have provided breakfast and lunches for those kids for decades. There are also food pantries...otherwise the kids go hungry?

Ron is giving credit to Trump who stopped this. There has been ebt fraud in many states now.
