Tate and his Peeps only take Federal Monday when they can control how they misuse it.

Tater and his cronies are a bunch of knuckle draggin' poopy heads I tell ya h'what

This is from the guy who claims to be Christian. Helping those who need help is not part of his Christian values. I can't stand this man.

If MS votes this literal potato back into office in 2023 you all deserve whatever you get.

Didn’t Brett Favre need some?

Making families homeless… that might godly

lanitaz123 Or Brett Favre 🤷🏿‍♂️ Which Ever Is Closer 🤣🤣🤣

Mississippians taking notes.

tatereeves is hoping the Feds will forgive him for stealing money they sent to poor people he decided he could put to better use in his bank account.

Yaaas! Nothing more prolife than lack of medical care, evictions and forced births! AbortionIsHealthcare

86,146 people applied for the program, only 36,889 were approved for assistance.

JamesPindell So he's screwing over landlords. Maybe he should have worked to simplify the system to get the assistance to the renters. The reason the dollars are still there is because truly deserving renters in need weren't well informed of the program.

JamesPindell Nothing like tossing your own voters on the street to own the libs. Lol.

I'd be very surprised if he sends the unspent money back to Washington and doesn't spread it around among his buddies.

Tater ! You go girl!!!! tatereeves

Once again, 'The Cruelty is the Point.'

Evicted in MS? Good time to move to Chicago. Or NYC. Or Atlanta. Or DC. Or anywhere.

Another genius move.
