Sen. Mark Warner, D-Virginia, lamented the 100,000 Virginians who have been removed from SNAP, blaming the president’s bill.
President Donald Trump’s Democratic critics mocked the “Big, Ugly Bill” and claimed it would have devastating effects on those who receive government assistance. On Monday, Warner took to X to claim the bill’s consequences are currently being lived out by the people in his state who have had their benefits taken away.
Look:
100,000 Virginians have been kicked off SNAP because of Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill.
These are real consequences for families just trying to put food on the table.

“100,000 Virginians have been kicked off SNAP because of Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill. These are real consequences for families just trying to put food on the table,” he wrote.
But X users had plenty to say:
Senator Mark Warner has an estimated net worth of approximately $214.1 million, making him one of the wealthiest members of Congress and the richest Democrat in the Senate. You need to pay your fair share -you could fund VA SNAP program

Kicking your illegal aliens off a benefit they should never have received, huh? Too bad you demonic filth have made it so obvious that you hate America and Americans. Elections don’t get stolen for free, and you demons are broke.

Only 100,000? Rookie numbers … need to get those up.

I like how you use Virginians, but not American citizens. Big distinction.

Virginians or illegal immigrants who are currently living in Virginia?

The only people getting kicked off SNAP are illegals and those who refuse to work/volunteer just 20 hours a week.
You know this, Mark.
If we don’t make this change the people who do truly need the help will eventually go without.
Put Virginians ahead of yourself for a change. https://t.co/mmxTdvbdxV

If only Democrats protected babies the way they protect illegal criminals.
But, I guess that would be a world of rainbows, unicorns and candy kisses. https://t.co/oHHaloWWHq

100,000 Virginians, NOT 100,000 Virginia CITIZENS! What has Warner been doing for the last 18 YEARS. Do we have to cart him off in a wheelchair????? https://t.co/mXmLDYLmnU

This guy is either foolishly naive or a narcissistic liar. After a bazillion years in the senate, it’s believed he indeed is a narcissistic liar. https://t.co/r9SOHJi9ee
