Watchman Gives Warning: More Than 30 Million Americans Are on the Verge of Starvation. The NWO Has Made Its Promises Clear, With 32 States Reducing Food Stamp Payments Beginning in March: If They Do Not Comply, Starve Them to Death, Tribulation Playing Out!

HNewsWire:

More than 30 million Americans face a "hunger cliff," as 32 states are set to slash food-stamp benefits beginning in March. By number, California and Texas have the most people on food stamps, at 5.1 million and 3.6 million respectively.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program notably exploded from $60.3 billion in 2019 to $119.5 billion in 2022 thanks to the Agriculture Department expanding food-stamp benefits by evading the normal process for determining eligibility and end-running Congressional review.

The reductions are due to the end of so-called emergency allotments, which bolstered food-stamp benefits at the start of the pandemic as Americans grappled with the massive disruption to the economy. While the U.S. is certainly on more stable footing than in 2020, households are now struggling with high food costs — groceries were about 10% higher in December than a year earlier — making the timing of the SNAP cuts particularly challenging, experts say. -CBS News

"This huger cliff is coming to the vast majority of states, and people will on average lose about $82 of SNAP benefits a month," said Ellen Vollinger, the SNAP director at the anti-hunger advocacy group, the Food Research & Action Center. "That is a stunning number."

The move comes after 18 states already ended their emergency benefits, while the remaining 32 states that continued the additional aid will lose federal funding to in March as part of the 2023 Omnibus spending bill which was signed into law in December.

The changes mean that a family of four could see benefits cut by around $328 per month, while elderly Americans who receive the minimum monthly benefit could see their SNAP payments fall from $281 per month to as low as $23. In 2022, the average monthly benefit per person was $230.88, an increase from $129.83 in 2019.

And despite having the lowest unemployment rate since 1969, more than 42 million Americans remain on food stamps - 6% more than in 2020, according to USDA data.

"What sometimes gets missed in that conversation is the part that so many SNAP households are employed, but often employed at low-wage levels — they aren't in jobs that are family-sustaining so they still qualify for SNAP," said Vollinger.

Food banks, meanwhile, are bracing for an increase in demand as food aid is slashed.

"People are having to choose between putting food on the table and paying rent," said Food Bank of the Rockies CEO, Erin Pulling. "We are seeing more people than ever needing help with food assistance."

As for the food stamp cuts, Pulling says "We're bracing for it." Source: Zerohedge

Watchman Sees Corruption: Many People Will Head to Food Banks to Feed Their Families. The DOD Gave $1 Billion.that’s $1 Billion in COVID Relief for Defense Contractor Wish Lists

By StevieRay Hansen | May 30, 2023 |

The DOD Gave $1,000,000,000 That’s $1bn in COVID Relief to Defense Contractor Wish Lists, Our Government Is No Longer Subject to the People It Marches Lockstep With the New World Order, They Will Spend This Country and it’s People Into Poverty, They Have and Agenda… A coalition of 40 ideologically diverse organizations on Thursday demanded that federal lawmakers investigate allegations from earlier this week that the Pentagon misused much of $1 billion in congressionally appropriated Covid-19 relief funding for what one critic called “a colossal backdoor bailout for the defense industry.” The groups’ call came in a letter (pdf) addressed to Reps. James E. Clyburn (D-S.C.) Steve Scalise (R-La.), leaders of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. The push for a probe was prompted by Washington Post reporting that some tax dollars directed to the Defense Department in March for building up U.S. supplies of…

Watchman: Globalist Media Ordered to Start Pushing Cannibalism as a Food Source, Birth Pains

Despite what some critics think, the so-called “problem of evil” is not something the Bible leaves unaddressed. Scripture not only refers to the problem of evil, but it offers several solutions to it. By looking at the Bible’s honest questioning of evil, God’s response to evil, and the scriptural solution to evil, one can address this problem using almost nothing other than God’s Word. Of course, this question ties into theology and philosophy as well. There are multiple ways of coming to possible solutions, and none is entirely complete all by itself. According to the Bible, the experience of evil is something God understands and acknowledges. God’s willingness to grant us the freedom of making our own choices also allows for the possibility of moral evil. Moral evil leads to physical evil. Even so, God has always acted to soften…

HNewsWire: Dominate the Headlines, a Surge in Violent Crime Across Major Us Metropolitan Areas Has Also Been Observed Since the Virus-Plandemic Began in March… HNewsWire: This afternoon, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), which manages Texas’ electric power system, urged residents and businesses to conserve energy and warned of probable rolling blackouts. The grid is facing a “possible reserve capacity shortfall with no market solution available,” according to an ERCOT notification issued late Sunday night. ERCOT has encouraged residents to decrease their energy use between 1400-2000 local time, when temperatures are predicted to reach triple digits. High temperatures are fueling record electricity consumption, and limited wind generation may push the system to its limit. Wind power is expected to account for roughly 8% of total capacity during peak hours today, according to current predictions. The current predicted electricity demand…

This Country’s Food Supply Chain Has Been Compromised, Proceed With Caution

By StevieRay Hansen | January 23, 2023 |

Watch Out, Big Tech, MSM Reprobate Are Spinning the Truth… In police-state fashion, Big Tech took the list of accused (including this site), declared all those named guilty and promptly shadow-banned, de-platformed or de-monetized us all without coming clean about how they engineered the crushing of dissent. Nearly 5,000 coronavirus cases and 20 deaths have occurred in 115 meat and poultry processing facilities across the U.S., data from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show. Why it matters: The federal government has ordered meatpacking plants to remain open to keep America’s food supply chain intact. But the data reveal worker safety is jeopardized when companies don’t drastically change the work culture and provide protective equipment. Many of the employees are low-income and are not offered paid sick leave or health benefits, which encourages employees to come to work sick. The facilities with the largest outbreaks…
