The jewel heist at the Louvre proves what I’ve long felt, that going to an art museum induces stupor and you don’t notice what’s right in front of you clearer than day.

Americans under 65 are too young to remember Watergate, how a piddly little break-in at Democratic headquarters, the theft of some papers, led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon at the urging of his fellow Republicans. The country has come to accept insults twenty times more gigantic than ever before. Watergate was a slap in the face and the past nine months have been a dozen truckloads of horse manure dumped on your front yard. But after the second truckload, you don’t really notice. You pull your shades and use a lot of air freshener and go out the back door and hope for a good heavy rainstorm.

SNAP funding is set to expire at the end of the month, meaning 42 million Americans will go hungry. A large percentage of those on SNAP are disabled, and many won't be able to stand in a bread line.

The government is making a very conscious decision to allow millions of Americans to starve, including the elderly, children and people with disabilities.

What’s worse, they seem to be funding an army of bots who are swarming social media with misinformation about SNAP and trying to convince the general public that everyone on it just needs to get a job. They’re all ‘scammers’. It’s their own fault. They ‘deserve’ to starve.
