The SNAP Card Controlled by Someone Else

While volunteering, I met a single mother whose SNAP card was held by her ex-partner. “He’s better with money,” she said. She had to ask permission to buy food, with no control over how benefits were used. SNAP assumes fairness inside households. Reality doesn’t. #SNAPControl #HiddenAbuse #WelfareDesign #RealLifeImpact

Why Black People will NEVER truly achieve "JUSTICE" in America? First and foremost the CONSTITUTION and the LAWS , CODES and "STATUES were rooted in EUROPEAN COLONY evolving into WHITE ETHNOSTATES whose culture was based upon WHITE SUPREMACISTS IDEOLOGY...So "JUSTICE " in essence was based upon WHITE SUPREMACISTS IDEOLOGY and when you look at the first definition of "JUSTICE " you get "the exercise of AUTHORITY in VINDICATION," so in the early "JUSTICE " system in America,based on WHITE SUPREMACISTS IDEOLOGY, THE ONLY "AUTHORITY", in AMERIKKKA, was WHITE MEN! And when you look at the word"VINDICATION" which comes from the Latin "VINDICTA" meaning "REVENGE" , so who ALWAYS CONTROLLED the "JUSTICE " system in America? WHITE MEN, therefore ONLY WHITE MEN can administer REVENGE"Legally" ,even white women have to appeal to white men for "JUSTICE" for only they can UTILIZE VIOLENCE to enforce "JUSTICE"! They have NEVER FREELY GIVEN US A DAMN THING, We always had to FIGHT for it. We are the product of the VICTIMS of the BREEDING FARMS, BRED to be PHYSICALLY SUPERIOR to Our Ancestors, bred to be PHYSICALLY SUPERIOR to even the WHITE MEN who FORCED Our Ancestors to BREED. They ended up needing to RECRUIT Us, to co-op Us to AID in their "JUSTICE" system, either OFFICIALLY or UNOFFICIALLY. They take Our KINDNESS, Our PATIENCE, as WEAKNESS. They NEED OUR COOPERATION for WHITE SUPREMACISTS IDEOLOGY, the "JUSTICE" system that makes it possible. We change Our MINDS, WE CHANGE THE RESULTS!

10-Year-Old Disabled Girl Became The First Student In Class To Expose Teacher's Sexual Abuse.

I came across this story and it still blows my mind. When she was about ten years old, she had a truly awful teacher. He punished the boys by hitting their fingers with a big ruler. But what he did to the girls was much worse. He would pinch their inner thighs in front of everyone. The girl was handicapped and could only use her left arm. When the teacher called her up for punishment, she refused to take the girl's punishment. She told him she wanted the boy's punishment instead and stuck out her usable arm. When he refused, she calmly looked him in the eye and called him a disgusting pedophile in front of the entire class. Of course the teacher got extremely angry. He shouted at her to go to the principal, but the girl just waited in the hall. Soon her French teacher came by to taunt her for being a bad student. The girl told her why she was sent out and the French teacher got really pale. It turned out the French teacher's own daughter was in that class and was also a victim. She rushed into the classroom and started a huge fight. When the girl's parents heard what happened, her father went to the school and made sure the teacher was dealt with. The pedophile ended up only being suspended for a month, but he never dared to touch another girl again. It's crazy to me that this ten-year-old handicapped girl was the only one in a class of thirty healthy students brave enough to stand up to him. And that girl is my mother. She is the strongest person I have ever known. *** This mother is truly a badass. Hats off to her for being so brave and fighting for what was right. I wish all the sex offenders would go straight to hell. #FamilyStories #Mom #BadassWomen #TrueStory #ChildhoodMemories #Justice #Inspiration

Why the United States Cannot End Dual Citizenship Without Changing the Constitution The key protection for dual citizenship in the United States comes from Afroyim v. Rusk (1967). In that landmark case, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Congress does not have the power to strip a person of their U.S. citizenship without their voluntary consent. Citizenship can only be lost if the individual intentionally chooses to give it up. Because of Afroyim, the United States accepts that many forms of dual citizenship are constitutionally protected. This includes situations where: • a person becomes a U.S. citizen while retaining another nationality, or • a U.S. citizen later acquires a foreign citizenship. Current U.S. law, including the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), also permits dual nationality. There is no requirement for new Americans to renounce prior citizenships when naturalizing. Under this constitutional framework, dual or multiple citizenship is allowed. Since this protection stems from the Fourteenth Amendment and more than 50 years of Supreme Court interpretation, Congress cannot eliminate dual citizenship simply by passing a new law. Any statute banning dual citizenship or automatically revoking citizenship from dual nationals would almost certainly be ruled unconstitutional. This is why proposals such as the Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025 face serious legal obstacles. That bill would require American dual nationals to renounce their foreign citizenship or lose U.S. citizenship. But this contradicts Afroyim, which holds that citizenship cannot be taken away merely because of passive status, such as holding another passport. Loss of citizenship must always be voluntary, not automatic. For the United States to truly abolish dual citizenship—especially for existing dual nationals—it would require: 1. A constitutional amendment, or 2. A major shift in Supreme Court doctrine, reversing or significantly narrowing Afroyim.#Citizenship #DualCitizen

When Malcolm X Spoke On Kennedy’s Death

On December 1, 1963, Malcolm X was asked for his reaction to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He was one of the most closely watched public figures in the country at the time, and reporters pressed him for a comment. Malcolm X responded with the words that would echo for decades. He said it was a case of chickens coming home to roost. He framed the event as part of a larger pattern of violence in the United States during that era. He argued that a nation shaped by political bloodshed could not avoid that same violence returning to its doorstep. The remark caused an immediate national uproar. It was interpreted as insensitive and divisive, and it clashed with the public grief that followed the assassination. The Nation of Islam suspended him from speaking publicly after the comments. His relationship with the organization would continue to strain in the months that followed. This moment is often oversimplified, but it marked a turning point. It pushed Malcolm X to reconsider his alliances, rethink his voice, and eventually pursue a broader message about global human rights. What happened on December 1 became one of the first steps toward the transformation that shaped the final years of his life. #MalcolmX #OnThisDay #AmericanHistory #PoliticalHistory #NewsBreakCommunity #HistoricVoices #HistoricMoments #AmericanLegacy

Specifying what SNAP can and can't be spent on doesn't work in real life. Again, a large percentage of people receiving SNAP have full time jobs. They pay taxes too. Yes, they are just basically getting their own tax money back. Again, they need to focus and single out fraudsters, particularly the establishments that are buying them. What we could do is change the tax code so that low income people under a certain income amount are exempt from some taxes. I'm sure there is a better idea out there, like living wages, but that won't work in an oligarchy.

Flight Attendants’ Little White Lies Exposed

Ever wondered if your flight attendant is telling you the truth? Turns out, there are two classic fibs they tell on almost every flight: 1) When you ask to turn up the heat, they say “sure!” but never actually do it (they’re sweating enough already). 2) That cup of coffee on a night flight? It’s probably decaf, even if you asked for regular—so you’ll hopefully just sleep and not bug them. The more you know! #News #FlightAttendantSecrets #TravelTips
