Walmart: 15,515 workers on SNAP.
Amazon: 12,346.
McDonald’s: 6,709.
Dollar General: 5,187.
That’s just 9 states.
Corporate America profits while taxpayers help feed its workers.
Why are we subsidizing low-wage business models?

2,665 CHILDREN DEPORTED TO COUNTRIES THAT WEREN'T THEIR OWN.
That's what an analysis of ICE records found between January 2025 and March 2026.
601 were sent to Panama.
380 to El Salvador.
331 to Colombia.
299 to Mexico.f
224 to Canada.
The records identify destinations different from the children's recorded citizenship.
BUT HERE'S WHAT WE STILL DON'T KNOW:
How many were unaccompanied?
How many were sent under third-country deportation agreements?
And what safeguards ensured they were received safely?
The records don't answer those questions.
Meanwhile, The Marshall Project reports more than 22,000 child deportation events through August 6, 2026.
THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN. MULTIPLE DESTINATIONS.
WHERE IS THE PUBLIC ACCOUNTING OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM?

A federal judge has rejected McDonald's request to dismiss a proposed class action lawsuit accusing it of defrauding consumers by misrepresenting the contents of its McRib sandwich. The plaintiffs accused McDonald's of intentionally shaping McRib patties with ridges to resemble pork ribs and make diners believe the sandwich contains rib meat. McDonald's has denied the allegations, maintaining the sandwich is made with 100% pork.
