700,000 Cut from SNAP as Trump Admin Purges Illegals
Brooke Rollins says the days of dead people and illegals on food stamps are over.
The left just got a wake-up call with their favorite welfare program: SNAP’s no longer a sanctuary free-for-all. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins just dropped a Sunday nuke on Fox News: nearly 700,000 removed from food stamps — and yes, thousands were illegal immigrants. We break down what Trump’s USDA just uncovered, and why Democrats are panicking.
Forward this to one person who thinks our borders aren’t affecting your grocery bill.
And hit reply — we want to hear what you’d do with $5B in “contingency funds.”
SNAP Purge Incoming: Illegals, Dead People, and Multi-State Grifters
What You Need to Know:
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins revealed the USDA has already removed nearly 700,000 people from food stamps, including thousands of illegal immigrants, as part of a sweeping cleanup of the bloated SNAP program.
Why It Matters:
• The Biden admin pumped SNAP up by 40% in just a few years — no guardrails, no accountability.
• Democrats are suing to keep illegals on benefits while the Trump admin shuts off the tap.
• This isn’t about food — it’s about power, votes, and trillion-dollar dependency.
The Real Story:
On Fox & Friends Weekend, Rollins outlined a quiet war room operation that’s been running since Day One of her appointment in February:
“We sent letters to every governor in America… No illegal aliens can use SNAP. Zero,” she said.
So far, 29 states have complied — almost all red, with a few blue holdouts. The data they turned over? Explosive.
• Thousands of illegal migrants using EBT cards
• 118 arrests tied to SNAP fraud
• 700,000 removed from benefits
• 5,000+ dead recipients still getting monthly payouts
• One man in six different states collecting duplicate benefits
California’s Newsom is now suing the Trump administration alongside other blue states (including Arizona and Massachusetts) for its “unlawful refusal” to keep benefits flowing.
Meanwhile, the USDA paused SNAP benefits starting Nov. 1 — refusing to dip into $5 billion in “contingency funds” after DOJ deemed it “not legally available.”
By Friday, two federal judges ordered Trump’s team to use the fund anyway — setting up a direct clash over who controls the purse: the elected president, or Obama-era benchwarmers.
Rollins isn’t backing down:
“There’s a new sheriff in town. His name is Donald Trump… This program will be reformed.”

What They Don’t Want You To See:
“We found one guy in six different states getting a benefit.”
“About 5,000 people that are dead who are still getting benefits.” — Brooke Rollins, 11/2/25, Fox News
Bottom Line:
Trump’s USDA is doing what Biden’s wouldn’t dare: cleaning house. SNAP has morphed into a loophole-ridden welfare state — one where illegal immigrants, corpses, and career scammers ate well on your dime. Now, the purge has begun. And Democrats? They’re suing to keep the fraud going.
Trump: “ICE Raids Haven’t Gone Far Enough”
Tear gas? Window-smashing? Trump says it’s still too soft.
In a CBS 60 Minutes preview dropped Sunday, President Trump doubled down on his immigration crackdown, telling Norah O’Donnell that ICE’s recent raids in liberal strongholds like Chicago and Los Angeles “haven’t gone far enough.”
When pressed about viral footage of ICE agents smashing car windows and using tear gas in residential neighborhoods, Trump didn’t flinch:
“Yeah, because you have to get the people out.”
He blamed federal judges — specifically Biden and Obama appointees — for slowing enforcement efforts, saying they’re “holding ICE back” from doing what’s necessary.
• The comment follows a weekend of raids across sanctuary cities, triggering clashes with local activists
• Videos of aggressive ICE operations have flooded social media, drawing fire from Democrats — and cheers from conservative voters
Twist the MSM won’t touch: The same blue cities outraged by ICE agents using tear gas are fine with BLM riots, fentanyl encampments, and illegal aliens driving Teslas on EBT.
Bottom Line: Trump’s not backing down — he’s just getting warmed up. Sanctuary city mayors better buckle up. ICE 2.0 is coming with fewer warnings and zero apologies.

New Data: Working-Class Voters Say Dems Are “Woke, Weak, and Lost”
Even Dem-funded research admits: the brand is toast.
Democrats just paid for their own intervention — and the results are more brutal than a Trump rally in Berkeley.
A new internal study, backed by Democrat-aligned nonprofit Democracy Matters and Super PAC American Bridge 21st Century, reveals what working-class voters really think: the Democratic Party is woke, weak, and out of touch. Nearly 60% have a negative view, and most can’t name a single thing Democrats stand for besides “not being Trump.”
• Dems are seen as fixated on fringe social issues — LGBTQ rights, illegal immigration, climate panic
• Voters say they want border security, public safety, cost-of-living help — and Dems aren’t delivering
• Trump’s messaging (“Kamala is for they/them, Trump is for you”) stuck like superglue
Another center-left poll backs this up: 70% say Dems are disconnected from real concerns.
Can you believe this? Instead of recalibrating, Democrats have been…
• Touring college campuses warning about “oligarchy”
• Endorsing radical DA candidates who text death threats
• Suing ICE for doing its job
• Shutting down the government over healthcare for illegals — while still cashing their own checks
Bottom Line: Democrats funded a study to find out why they’re bleeding voters — and then doubled down on every reason. Working-class Americans have left the building. The only thing Dems are “representing” now is the NPR brunch crowd.

We’re watching the reset happen in real time. While Democrats scream about “cruelty,” Trump’s team is cutting dead weight — literally. Illegals off SNAP. Judges defied. Sanctuary cities on notice. And the left? Still obsessed with pronouns and protecting EBT for people who don’t belong here.
This isn’t just policy. It’s a return to sanity.
If you’ve ever wondered why November 2024 mattered — show them this.

P.S. Rollins didn’t just expose a bloated program — she exposed an entire class of politicians who knew the system was broken and did nothing. Biden’s USDA greenlit fraud. Trump’s USDA is firing people. That’s the difference.
