Thankfully the courts have temporarily forced Trump to spend the contingency funds on SNAP.

Totally — but EVEN NOW they’re refusing to use any of their other options for emergency funding the Court didn’t mandate

You have to FORCE them just to feed children, it’s crazy man

what we need to do is what the Whos in Whoville did, just carry on. Stores should allow those who generally have SNAP, continue to shop. Keep tabs like in the 1800s! Then bill trump. Send a message that the American people can overcome anything he tosses at us! We don't need him, we don't want him, we are better without him! Farmers need to do the same with the produce they can't sell overseas, give it to the needed, and send trump and his regime an invoice!

What he allowed first was bigotry and hatred.

I plan on donating to my local food bank here in Buffalo. I have already donated to 2 charities to feed the homeless for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Since more red states use SNAP than blue, magas effectively cut off their food stamps by voting trump onto office. When magas complained about going hungry, trump basically said F U. Another way to look at this: magas voted against socialist programs and shot themselves in the foot. No food and no insurance to cover the hole in their collective feet.

Unfortunately, the forced partial payment will only cover a partial month of benefits. Even if they get distributed quickly, we'll be right back here if senate doesn't get their heads out of their asses!

Maybe it's time to hit up those billionaires (getting the tax cuts) for some hefty donations. Pour praise on those who step up and shame the he'll out of those who don't! Start with Musk, Bezos and the rest of the funky bunch.

By then there will have been two months of expensive flight delays and other problems and ICE’s paychecks will be jeopardized. So I don’t think Trump or the GOP will want government to close for that.

The GOP didn't forget. They seem to enjoy watching people suffer.

would love to see Trump survive on SNAP benefits for a month

there would be a national emergency

I would like to see tRump live as an average American. He would not be able to survive. He is stupid and weak.
