The discussion surrounding SNAP benefits and their relationship to illegal immigration has gained significant attention, particularly in light of recent government shutdowns. As public platforms light up with concerns about children potentially going hungry, the narrative quickly spirals into partisan blame. Critics often point to Republicans as indifferent to the plight of American families. However, it is essential to examine the underlying facts and data rather than succumb to emotional appeals. First, it is critical to recognize that only about 4% of American households experience what is defined as “food insecurity.” This term, often conflated with outright hunger, needs clarification.…

House Republicans are currently in early talks about a healthcare package, with the ongoing government shutdown making Obamacare a contentious issue. Speaker Mike Johnson has mentioned the formation of “informal working groups” to explore reforms aimed at reducing rising healthcare costs.

The central conflict arises from the enhanced subsidies introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, which Democrats want paired with any deal to…
The U.S. Senate recently made headlines by voting against President Trump’s tariffs, a move that many view as siding with global interests over American workers. The Senate’s decision, which passed with a 51-47 vote, strips Trump of the power to impose tariffs he established to protect American jobs and wealth from predatory foreign practices. The tariffs targeted nations perceived as “free-loading,” with China singled out as a primary adversary in this economic battle. This latest vote signifies a striking defiance of Trump’s policies, marking the third instance in just a few days where the Senate has rejected his approach to…
