We're not sure what inspired Sen. Mark Warner to post this on Monday, but he informs us that 100,000 Virginians have been kicked off of SNAP because of the Republicans' "Big Ugly Bill." When Warner says "Virginians," does he mean citizens of Virginia, or people who just happen to reside in Virginia? Because illegal aliens have been kicked off SNAP, and the able-bodied have been given minimum work or volunteer requirements to keep qualifying for SNAP. So what he's saying seems to be that 100,000 people who shouldn't have been on SNAP in the first place either are no longer receiving food stamps or have to work for them. That's a lot of people.

These are real consequences for families just trying to put food on the table.
I notice you said “Virginians” and not citizens. That was intentional. You know many of these people are illegal aliens. Just admit it. Don’t do sleazy political speak.

They are not Virginians. They are not here legally. As in illegal alien. Trespasser. Lawbreaker. Not eligible for benefits.

I like how you use Virginians, but not American citizens. Big distinction.

American Virginians? Or illegal aliens in Virginia. Explain yourself to the taxpayers! They deserve to know where the money is going.

You clearly have no appetite for identifying, correcting, or prosecuting fraud.

Maybe they were 100k people using SNAP as a way of life and not a safety net. Maybe the people don’t exist and this was fraud? Maybe they are illegals we shouldn’t need to pay for. Prove it is harming American citizens! I know the massive tax burden I pay harms my family.

Because they are either illegal immigrants or adults with no children who refuse to work basic hours. Please explain why taxpayers should have to pay their expenses...

That just means they weren't supposed to be on there to begin with Karen

If policy changes from the Big Beautiful Bill made it more difficult for illegals and able bodied workers to receive welfare (food assistance)...

GOOD ! I voted for that.
It was never meant to be a hand out. It was meant to be a hand up, for fellow Americans in trouble.
It was never meant for illegal aliens dumbass. You pay for it out of your pocket. Round up all your blue jackass friends and start a fund.

Illegals & ineligibles. Mark is pro fraud. 🤷♂️

If you don’t qualify you don’t get SNAP. Its so easy even you can understand it, Warner.

Work requirements for those without children and kicking off illegals are bad moves according to Democrats, including our idiot Senator.
— Alec Smart (@AlecSmartIII) September 28, 2026
100,000 people who don’t qualify. Illegal aliens and fraudsters.
— ConservativeKER (@ConservativeKER) September 29, 2026
I voted for THIS.
Yes, there are real consequences for families just trying to put food on the table. Less of their money will be taken to provide food stamps for illegal aliens and childless, able-bodied people who should be able to feed themselves.
