I wish they said it was a drill.

I was at a large store, and many people were very frightened. I believe it could have been done in a much better manner. People make bad decisions, when they are scared. The phone message should have been more explicate, indicating that it was a drill. It was very poorly done, in my opinion.

Ann Anderson

It was not stated in the alert.

Liz Barbarick

I was so scared...I took shelter from the sun tornado!!!

Jennifer Tiff

I had no idea what was going on as tests are always the first Wednesday of the month. Not Tuesday

It is the leading story on most of major news sites. It was all a made up game with a predetermined conclusion. How many dems/republicans are laughing and patting themselves on the back this morning telling each other 'Same time next year?'

Don't care one way or another, nor do those making the decisions in Congress, as they still are getting a paycheck.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

Max

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump won this. SCOTUS ruled in favor of Trump.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Spend the money on something else. Send missiles to israel instead.

Toasty

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.

Max

Schumer knows this is all on the backs of the democrats.
