Jermaine Dupri responds to criticism of Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance.

Former Fox News journalist Adam Housley, husband of actress Tamera Mowry-Housley, says SNAP recipients buy junk food for their children.

Housley made the comment in response to President Donald Trump’s plans for SNAP benefits reform. Trump announced he would “correct” what he calls “mismanagement” of the USDA’s SNAP program under former President Joe Biden.

Trump wants to ban SNAP recipients from buying junk food with their SNAP benefits.

The SNAP program is America’s largest welfare program that provides nutrition assistance to low-income or no-income families.

More than 42 million Americans receive SNAP benefits every month, according to the USDA.

Housely, a conservative, agreed that SNAP reform is necessary because there is widespread abuse of the system.

In a post on X (Twitter), Housley wrote: “As a kid who grew up in neighborhood grocery stores since I was 5, I can’t tell you how many times I saw people come in and buy crap food for their kids with food stamps, then open the wallet and use cash for liquor, beer, wine and cigarettes.”

He continued: “Then there were those who would repeatedly buy a lemon or lime, get the change, walk out the door throw them away and do it again. Until they had enough change to buy cigarettes or alcohol. As a kid it pissed me off because there are some people who could really use the help and then there are these others working the system.”

While most of Housley’s followers agreed that something needs to be done, others said he was behind the times.

One follower wrote: “EBT cards have been in use for well over a decade now. You do not receive “change” from an EBT card in modern America.”

Another person challenged Housley’s memory: “So you just hung out in the corners of stores and observed grown ass people collecting change over time to buy cigarettes and alcohol…at 5yrs old.”

A third person commented: “Is this Tamara’s husband? Gurl….”
