      The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP. 
They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.
They’re refusing.
Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.
Starvation as a policy choice.

      Quote from Timothy Mellon, who donated $130 million to the U.S. military, so you know who we’re dealing with:
“Black people, in spite of heroic efforts by the "Establishment" to right the wrongs of the past, became even more belligerent and unwilling to pitch in to improve their own situations”.

      'River by Moonlight' (1886) George Henry differed from the other members of the Glasgow Boys, who, at the time of this work, were painting naturalistic scenes inspired by Bastien-Lepage. Henry preferred compositions with designs focused on achieving an overall decorative effect.
