#3 Don't kid your self about this funding bill. The Farm Bill is essentially for Food Stamps. The 2024-25 budget began 10/1/24 and runs to 9/30/25, why are they out of money for Food Stamps you ask? Try 25 million newcomers on for size.
If Trump wants to get rid of them cut off their money/food. The R's should have started their relocation now.

#4 But Kay Granger (R-Tx) didn’t vote on the bill or anything since the summer. Turns out that she has been in an elder memory facility in Texas since then. Biden and Mitch are not alone. You would figure there would be a facility in DC with a shuttle bus.

#6 Like I said, the farm aspect of it is not Josiah and Edith trying to keep the homestead.

Food stamps, including allowances for booze mixers junk food, then helping Tyson build a cricket flour factory, and the Juan Deere PR campaign. Allllll the way down there at the bottom Josiah gets a liiiitle bit of kickback from the fleecing he gets every step of production. Unless of course his generational field gets declared a wetland by the EPA.

#7 Every time they pass one of these 'continuing resolutions' the value of dollar drops like a bunghole after leftover taco bell.
