מפני שהוא ממעט באכילתו. דתרומה אסורה לטבול יום ולזרים:
ורבי שמעון מתיר. דסבר מותר להביא קדשים לבית הפסול:
מה אם היקל בזבחי שלמים. שקונים שלמים בכסף מעשר שני ואע״פ שממעט באכילתו שיכולין לבא לידי פגול ונותר וטמא, לא נקל בתרומה לקנותה בכסף מעשר שני שאין בה דין פגול ונותר ולא דין טמא, שלא כל הדברים המטמאין את הקדש מטמאין את התרומה ואין הלכה כרבי שמעון:

Mishnayos Maaser Sheni Perek 3 Mishnah 3
מעשר שני פרק ג׳ משנה ג׳
Bartenura
מי שהיה לו מעות – of Second Tithe, and he must with them unconsecrated things that are not for eating, drinking or anointing.
ולחבירו פירות – of unconsecrated produce and he wants to do a favor for him, that he should redeem the monies of Second Tithe for his produce.
אוכל פירותיו בטהרה – for the sanctity of [Second] Tithe takes effect on the produce and he must eat them in purity.
ולא יאמר כן לעם הארץ – who is suspected of eating produce of [Second] Tithe in defilement.
אלא בדמאי – such as if those monies of Second Tithe were of דמאי/suspicion as to the tithes therefrom being taken properly, or whether it is permissible to say this even to an עם הארץ/ignoramus/illiterate, lest the monies were not [Second] Tithe.
מי שהיו לו מעות. של מעשר שני, וצריך לקנות מהם דברים של חולין שלא לאכילה ושתיה וסיכה:
ולחבירו פירות. של חולין ורוצה לעשות עמו טובה שיתחללו מעות מעשר חבירו על פירותיו:
אוכל פירותיו בטהרה. שחלה קדושת מעשר על הפירות, וצריך לאכלן בטהרה:
ולא יאמר כן לעם הארץ. שהוא חשוד לאכול פירות מעשר בטומאה:
אלא בדמאי. כגון אם היו אותן מעות מעשר שני של דמאי, אז מותר לומר כן אפילו לעם הארץ, דשמא המעות אינן מעשר:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

What is the Mishnah?
The Mishnah is the first major written collection of Jewish oral traditions, forming the basis of the Talmud. It dates back to around 200 CE and consists of teachings and discussions of Jewish law by various rabbis.
Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

מפני שהוא ממעט באכילתו – for heave-offering is forbidden to one who has bathed but must wait until sunset to be perfectly clean and to foreigners (i.e., non-Kohanim).
ורבי שמעון מתיר – who holds that it is permitted to bring holy things to the house of defilement/blemish.
מה אם היקל בזבחי שלמים – that one purchases peace offerings with the monies of Second Tithe, and even though he lessens his eating [of them] for they are able to become rejected in consequence of an improper intention on the part of the officiating priest and the remnant [which are portions of sacrifices left over beyond the legal time and bound to be burnt] which become impure, shall we not be lenient concerning the heave-offering to purchase it with the monies of Second Tithe which do not have the laws of improper intentions on the part of the officiating priest and the remnants of sacrificial portions left over beyond the legal time nor the law of impurity, for not all the things that make that which is holy impure make the heave-offering impure. And the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.
