First you get down on your knees
Fiddle with your rosaries
Bow your head with great respect
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect
Do whatever steps you want if
You have cleared them with the pontiff
Everybody say his own Kyrie, eleison
Doin' the Vatican Rag
Get in line in that processional
Step into that small confessional
There the guy who's got religion'll
Tell you if your sin's original
If it is, try playin' it safer
Drink the wine and chew the wafer
Two, four, six, eight
Time to transubstantiate

Delta calls for end to government shutdown.

The Democrats refuse to vote for a clean CR because they want to continue giving free healthcare to illegals and for “leverage.”

And democrats want to give free healthcare to illegals because mexico pays them huge bribes to do so.
 
"Protected Classes" being those here illegally....we citizens are now second class in our own country.

As bad as you think things are the reality is worse.

This is another problem with blacks. You try to help them by giving them free stuff and then when it ends, they scream they have a "right" to the freebies.

Absolutely nowhere did Hochul mention "protected classes" or Blacks. He did talk in about getting help to the rural poor... Who are mostly white.

??????????????????????????? What a stupid thing to say. There is no constitutional right to vote. Many states don't let felons vote.

Voting is not explicitly guaranteed as a constitutional right in the original U.S. Constitution, but it has been recognized as a fundamental right through constitutional amendments and Supreme Court rulings.

Here’s how that works:

🧾 Constitutional Amendments That Protect Voting​

While the original Constitution doesn’t directly grant a right to vote, several amendments prohibit discrimination in voting access:

  • 15th Amendment (1870): Prohibits denial of voting based on race, color, or previous servitude.
  • 19th Amendment (1920): Grants women the right to vote.
  • 24th Amendment (1964): Bans poll taxes in federal elections.
  • 26th Amendment (1971): Lowers the voting age to 18.
These amendments don’t say “everyone has a right to vote,” but they limit how and why voting can be denied.

⚖️ Judicial Recognition of Voting as a Fundamental Right​

The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that voting is a fundamental right, meaning it’s essential to preserving other rights. Key cases include:

  • Reynolds v. Sims (1964): Established “one person, one vote,” requiring equal representation in legislative districts.
  • Harper v. Virginia Board of Elections (1966): Struck down poll taxes in state elections, reinforcing that wealth shouldn’t affect voting eligibility.
When laws burden voting rights, courts apply strict scrutiny, requiring the government to justify the restriction with a compelling interest.

🛑 Permissible Restrictions​

Despite its fundamental status, voting isn’t absolute. States can impose:

  • Age and residency requirements
  • Voter registration deadlines
  • Restrictions for felons (varies by state)
These are allowed if they’re narrowly tailored and serve a legitimate state interest.

🧠 Summary​

So while the Constitution doesn’t say “you have the right to vote” in plain terms, the combination of amendments and judicial interpretation makes voting a protected and fundamental right in U.S. law.

I can break down how Nevada or Utah handle felon voting or registration deadlines if you’d like to go deeper.

You are an idiot.

Yes, according to the most recent USDA data, white Americans are the largest racial group receiving SNAP benefits, making up approximately 35–38% of recipients.

Here’s a breakdown based on 2023–2025 data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture:

📊 SNAP Recipients by Race and Ethnicity​

  • White (non-Hispanic): ~35.4% to 37.9%
  • Black (non-Hispanic): ~24.5% to 25.7%
  • Hispanic (any race): ~12.5% to 15.6%
  • Asian: ~3.8% to 3.9%
  • Native American: ~1.3%
  • Multiracial/Unknown: ~14.5% to 17%

🧠 Important Context​

  • White recipients are the largest group numerically, but Black and Native American households are more likely to use SNAP relative to their population share, reflecting higher rates of poverty and food insecurity.
  • 89.4% of SNAP recipients are U.S.-born citizens, with less than 11% being foreign-born. This counters viral misinformation suggesting that most recipients are noncitizens.

🏞️ Geography Matters Too​

  • SNAP participation is higher in rural and small-town areas than in urban centers, and many rural recipients are white.
So while most recipients are white in absolute numbers, racial disparities in poverty and food insecurity mean that SNAP plays a crucial role in supporting communities of color.
