You just tossing 'SNAP' in that like a good propagandist is bullshit. Nobody has threatened money going to these bigots attacking kids for not fitting into their little box.

DeSantis is full of shit and using his attack on kids as a way to troll Biden with the lies you are here peddling for the Regressive right.

SNAP tossed themselves into it by the directive of Bidens executive order.

The only function of SNAP is to provide funding if you meet x criteria. You are being willfully ignorant.

The usually mundane issue of school lunch funding has turned into a Florida political firestorm, with Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried denouncing comments from Gov. Ron DeSantis she calls “perverted and deeply inappropriate.”

On Thursday, Fried denounced the “deranged” DeSantis for “lies” about the federal school lunch program. This came a day after DeSantis claimed the Joe Biden administration sought to “take lunch money from poor kids” at a press conference in Brevard County.

“Gov. DeSantis is the deranged one for using hungry kids in this political stunt. He is lying. Period,” Fried claimed.

“The National School Lunch Program has nothing to do with bathrooms, locker rooms or sports. Our department passed on nondiscrimination guidelines from the federal government — which only apply to the lunch line — saying that children can’t be discriminated against by being denied meals at school. That’s it. Nothing else. If he really cared so much about feeding kids, he would have applied for available federal supplemental child nutrition funding — which I’ve been calling on him to do for months. Now that’s deranged.”

The Commissioner then claimed DeSantis’ position was driven by political considerations.

“For Gov. DeSantis, this isn’t about the well-being of kids in Florida — it’s just another culture war for him to wage to score political points to run for President. The only people who are inappropriately imposing sexuality in schools are Republicans who seem to be obsessed with which bathrooms kids are using. It’s perverted and deeply inappropriate,” Fried asserted.

“Gov. DeSantis should be ashamed of himself and parents should be concerned about why he and his administration seem to be intent on sexualizing every aspect of schooling in Florida.”

Florida Politics shared Fried’s quote with the Governor’s Office, and the Department of Education offered a denunciation of the Commissioner’s “false and desperate attempt to call attention to her political agenda.”

“Commissioner Fried threatened to remove Florida’s most vulnerable students from the National School Lunch Program if our schools do not accept the Biden Administration’s radical gender ideology. We will not allow our children to be used as bargaining chips for individuals who are motivated by self-interest rather than the health and safety of all students,” asserted spokesperson Alex Lanfranconi.

This back and forth comes after DeSantis’ well-publicized remarks on the matter.

On Wednesday in Rockledge, DeSantis spotlighted the state’s ban on transgender athletes in amateur women’s sports as something generally understood as the “proper thing to do” that the Biden White House targeted nonetheless.

“Biden is now threatening to penalize states that have taken basic commonsense actions like just recognizing the importance of women’s sports,” DeSantis claimed.

DeSantis then pointed to a policy from the U.S. Department of Agriculturetying its programs, including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), to compliance with Title IX protections that extend to matters of sexual orientation and gender identity. So far, however, the USDA has not explicitly threatened to revoke any funding. But several states have sued over the policy shift.

“They’re threatening to take away lunch money from poor kids as punishment from us protecting women’s sports. Think about how deranged that is,” DeSantis fumed. “They’re so intent on destroying the competition of women’s athletics that they’re going to use school lunch money for poor kids as a cudgel to try to get us to submit to what they want.”

The USDA has defended its anti-discrimination policies, meanwhile.

“USDA is committed to administering all its programs with equity and fairness, and serving those in need with the highest dignity. A key step in advancing these principles is rooting out discrimination in any form — including discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity,” said Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack in May.

Commissioner Diaz issued a memo in late July stressing that these are mere guidelines and not “binding law or enforceable,” meanwhile.

He is obsessed with one disastrous example from the Johnson administration. What fell by the wayside is that this was also the heyday of radical behaviorism before the “cognitive revolution”.

Talk about durian-picking.

So your opinion is that a child can give informed consent to puberty blockers like Lupron. Is that correct?

Fried has a gubernatorial campaign against DeSantis.

LOL

Is there no low level for you? Fried was also busted on ethics last year for failure to report half her income from a company she owns stake in that she has oversight over.

Don't care. Only women's sports and kids. It's the literal reason mine are in private school. When the sex Ed program went into exploration of gender in K-3 that was it. Because its impossible to separate gender and sex at this age.

I am an ally for adults.
 
RON DESANTIS’S NEW CIVICS INITIATIVE INVOLVES TEACHING KIDS SLAVERY IN AMERICA WASN’T THAT BAD
Few people in politics today are more drunk with power than Ron DeSantis. The Florida governor punishes companies that disagree with him, attacks people for living their lives, and suspends democratically elected officials for failure to enforce his favorite fascist policies. Like many a conservative in 2022, DeSantis also hates the idea of kids learning that American history involves a lot of unsavory business, usually on the part of white people. Which is why he’s started a new initiative that involves straight-up lying about the country’s past to Florida’s school children.
