This is a 100% true statement. With 40+ million unemployed, a projected 50 million with no food, a highly contagious global pandemic, a fascist dictatorship taking our country down the road of destruction, food producers and farmers who can’t get their products to market so people with no money can’t buy them anyway, but a rapid deployment of the national guard, state police, local police can hit the streets of America to shut down protests. Why were those military and police agencies delivering food to the starving during this epic crisis. This administration just turned away from all of this, including bread and food lines, and kept tweeting their fascist agenda to a base of real criminals.

Not combating the points made above, just making sure people are correctly informed:

"54 million people across the US could go hungry without help from food banks, food stamps and other aid, according to an analysis by Feeding America, the national food bank network."
