Food should not be political

1 min read

Today's (May 14) Mirror editorial on the cancellation of the funding of the local food bank reflects the absolute cruelty of this administration. Our esteemed John Joyce consistently votes for these actions.

I'm not sure why anyone should be surprised when this administration has supported the termination of USAID and sentencing millions to starvation, disease and death. Gaza, Sudan are the most severe examples where starvation is happening now. Children are starving and dying.

All the while the administration is setting out to cannibalize Medicaid and Clean Energy initiatives all to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

The Trump family has earned billions of dollars since he took office, and now accepted a $400 million plane from Qatar, all while his sons are making billion dollar deals in the countries he is visiting.

His crypto ventures have earned him billions, and he will host the owners of his crypto coins at a private dinner. The Saudis have invested $2 billion, while others have invested millions. These are bribes.

So I ask, where are our state representatives? Why are they silent? What would Jesus do?
