If groceries cost us $500 per month and our government says it accepted $10 from an anonymous donor to help pay for next months groceries, what does it mean?

It's as if someone threw some coins at the crowd just for a chance to talk about how it's the Democrats who "opted" not to pay them. I wish they more deliberately explored the "it costs billions to pay the military yet the 130 million is gonna do... something" part of the story.
Can we have a military coup yet?
