SNAP funding fight leaves millions
6m
The Trump administration returned to the Supreme Court seeking to halt full SNAP benefits nationwide amid a legal fight over funding that left millions of recipients in limbo.
Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors.
Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor.
Reverse Robin Hood.

Donald Trump just said he'll ask the Supreme Court to freeze SNAP payments AGAIN.
His message to the 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP? Eat dirt.

UPDATE: The administration's appeal to the high court over the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program comes despite new efforts to end the federal shutdown, which would render the issue moot.

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.
The Senate Democrats!

Ending or cutting back SNAP was the point, so why believe R's will do anything to stop the Trump administration from trying other ways once the government re-opens?

At 11:54 p.m. ET, the First Circuit *denied* the Trump administration's request for a stay pending appeal in the SNAP case.
#SCOTUS now has 48 hours (so, through 11:54 p.m. on Tuesday) to either grant the same relief or extend the "administrative stay" entered by Justice Jackson on Friday night.

The Trump administration on Monday said it still wants the Supreme Court to block lower court decisions requiring it to pay full food assistance benefits to about 42 million Americans who rely on the nation’s largest anti-hunger program.

It's not just the govn't shutdown & SNAP delays. The GOP is cutting food benefits, education programs, farm subsidies, FAA services, wind & solar production, etc - while food, travel, healthcare, energy, & tariff costs increase.
Dems caving now addresses NONE of this!

Senate Democrats are idiots & cowards but Trump cannot stop himself from hurting work families: this allows him to kick 24 million off of healthcare, he will keep trying to kick 42 off of food stamps, and he will continue to make life hell for federal workers (ensuring serious service disruptions)

This is such bullsh*t from New Hampshire's leading TV station, WMUR. No it doesn't guarantee that food stamps are going to be funded through the 2026 fiscal year, because Trump's been impounding funds!
