This is not the first time RFK Jr or his fellow anti-vax travelers conducted a study they knew would harm or kill children in low-income countries. It is a dehumanizing, colonialist model of manufacturing evidence: sacrificing foreign kids for political pseudoscience.

It's not a shutdown then, it's a coup
Republicans could override the filibuster and reopen the government with only 51 votes.
Any other solution requires the House, and Johnson is refusing to bring it back into session.
Republicans completely control the shutdown. They don't want to reopen the government.

The shutdown is ultimately a legislative negotiation about a budget.
Hard to resolve it when the controlling party in one part of Congress refuses to negotiate, will not re-open the House, is not in DC.

States have been told not to send transmissions to state EBT vendors by end of October.
This means SNAP benefits would not be distributed to anyone who qualifies.
I know my state and many others are reaching out for further guidance. This would send 40+ million Americans into food insecurity.
