⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Conservative commentator Matt Walsh thinks he may have come up with a way to combat fraud in the food stamp (SNAP) program. He suggests maybe we need to start weighing people who participate in the program. What about drug testing?

This may be a little tongue in cheek, but Walsh makes some great points about how the program is abused and how people use it to buy food products that make them obese. Is that what the program was intended to do?


He is essentially calling for the program to end, but if we can’t just end it, it needs to be more strict.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

MATT WALSH: The ongoing government shutdown has finally drawn attention to the scale of this fraud, and it is astronomical. It has exposed a vast network of criminal activity that needs to be shut down. Just for starters, as the attorney Mike Davis has pointed out, it’s illegal under federal law to provide financial assistant assistance to illegal aliens. It’s also illegal to rob stores and then brag about it on TikTok. At a minimum, we could start there. Arrest these criminals, prosecute the state officials who are paying out benefits to illegal aliens, who, by the way, typically receive Medicaid funding as well, and then also other welfare benefits.

And then once we’re done with that, we need drug testing and weight testing for anyone receiving SNAP. We need a system that does not subsidize the grocery bills of 45 million people for the indefinite future with no time limit or restriction.

And beyond that point, if the food stamp program is going to continue to exist at all, which I’m not convinced it should, it needs to have standards, strict standards. It needs to have a reason to exist. Someone needs to be able to explain in a coherent fashion why the spending is necessary. Democrats have had several days to give us an explanation, and they failed to do it. In fact, they’ve essentially admitted it’s a shell game, and it’s rife with fraud. They’ve admitted that they’re just redistributing money or creating economic activity, as Tim Walz put it.

And for the benefit of every taxpayer and the millions of obese profoundly ungrateful people they’re feeding, we should end this particular economic activity.

This video is cued to start at the 22:19 mark, so just press play:


This renewed focus on the SNAP program has completely backfired on Democrats because of the shutdown. They never intended for this kind of scrutiny of the program but lots of people are talking about it right now.
