Abandoning all pretense of wanting to help Americans in need or being forced to cut funding to food programs by law, Donald Trump has gone mask off and has taken the audacious step of actively working to prevent Americans from receiving SNAP benefits in defiance of a court order mandating the program be funded in full.
This occurs after Donald Trump's record breaking government shutdown (having broken his previous record) drags into it's 38th day
https://apnews.com/article/snap-food-government-shutdown-trump-a807e9f0c0a7213e203c074553dc1f9b BOSTON (AP) — President Donald Trump ’s administration asked a federal appeals court Friday to block a judge’s order that it distribute November’s full monthly SNAP food benefits amid a U.S. government shutdown, even as at least some states said they were moving quickly to get the money to people.
The judge gave the Trump administration until Friday to make the payments through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. But the administration asked the appeals court to suspend any court orders requiring it to spend more money than is available in a contingency fund, and instead allow it to continue with planned partial SNAP payments for the month.
The court filing came even as the U.S. Department of Agriculture said in a memo to states that it’s working to make funds available Friday for full monthly SNAP benefits.
California and Wisconsin said some SNAP recipients already received their full November payments overnight on Thursday.
“Food benefits are now beginning to flow back to California families,” Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement. A spokesperson for Democratic Gov. Tony Evers of Wisconsin also confirmed that full SNAP payments had gone through.

In both cases, the judges ordered the government to use one emergency reserve fund containing more than $4.6 billion to pay for SNAP for November but gave it leeway to tap other money to make the full payments, which cost between $8.5 billion and $9 billion each month.

I'm betting trump raided the emergency SNAP benefits and pocketed the money. This is why he's just ignoring the courts, they'd find out what he did if he was forced to do his job.

Meanwhile, North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services said that partial SNAP benefits were distributed Friday, based on the Trump administration’s previous decision. Officials in Illinois and North Dakota also said they were distributing partial November payments, starting as soon as Friday.

>>1455612 Are you pretending to be this stupid or does it come naturally? The way an approval rating works is you call a thousand or whatever people and ask them in this case if they think Trump has been doing a good job and you record the amount of people who say yes and the people who say no. Then a few months later you do the same thing. So when someone's approval rating is going down, as Trump's has been quite dramatically, it means that statistically some of the people they called six months ago who said he was doing a good job are now saying he isn't doing a good job. That's not "orange man bad" it's "this politician I used to support is clearly screwing me over or not doing what I want so now I don't support him" Trump had a lot of low income supporters or farmers who they now realize he gives absolutely no shits about.

It proves your first point to be completely factually wrong, and kills the argument of your second point entirely. When the Republican president is actively fighting against distributing SNAP benefits despite a court order to do so, you can't blame that on Democrats.

>>1455639 Court order is wrong and will be overturned on appeal. Like they all are.
Its not complicated there are two issues
1.
>Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 creates SNAP but does not give it a set budget >budget is set by Congressional appropriation >the money congress has appropriated has all been spent >the money that remains has not been appropriated for SNAP spending. You're asking the Federal Government to ignore separation of power issues.
2.
>Even if it could be spent SNAP costs $8B per month, but there is only 6B saved. >SNAP money gets divided among the states >Government wants to reduce the spending so that they can meet all obligations to all states >the new order means that they (1) cannot divide it out and (2) must give all of it out this month which will result in them totally running out of money while also not making sure all states get what they need You're saying that the Courts have the right to set policy for the Executive. Another separation of powers issue.
You retards are burning down the Republic all because of Trump. You're not thinking about a future where there is no Trump and Republicans get to use the precedent set in Court against you.

This is not a "DEMS WANT TO VOID SEPERATION OF POWERS!" issue. It is settled policy for how SNAP is supposed to operate in the event of a shutdown, which the Trump admin is denying. All so they can use the starvation of the American people as pressure on dems, because clearly they do not care about them themselves.

The "extend them by a year, see what the voters have to say about it" deal they gave today seemed pretty good, but you retards rejected it immediately after none of you even bothered to show up for negotiations.

>>1455850 This, they shouldn't have to give up anything since the status quo of fulling funding it is the default position, but they even gave a concession to have it be 1 year. And Republicans rejected that instantly.
Doesn't look good for Republicans, especially going into the holiday travel season.

>>1455856 Keeping the status quo would be funding the government. If you're so sure on this healthcare thing, you would want to fund the government and then use the increased healthcare costs to drive up turnout in the election.

>>1455857 The status quo would be the previous budget passed and keeping that. Republicans are heavily altering the status quo in their quest to steal healthcare from Americans.
Of course republicans are master of projection, so they'd pretend murdering Americans is the status quo and democrats need to negotiation how many Americans the republicans should be allowed to murder.

>>1455938 The status quo is funding the government and funneling money to increase healthcare profits.
The 20 million people you're worried about would be 300% to 400% above the FPL.
(protip: FPL is the federal poverty limit)
(pro'ertop: the FPL is nearly $50k)
(pro'ertip-ex: that means the subsidies are available to those making 150-200k/yr)
I think the ones losing ACA subsidies will simply be OK.

2. I juxtaposed it with the deprivation of air. You rightly associated air with the ability to live, but not healthcare, because you are a fucking imbecile.

>>1456053 Well, it's literally slavery.
The dream of the communist is simply not to do anything and be provided for.
Therefore, in practice the lazy fuckers are gulag'd to avoid the eventual mass starvation for as long as possible.
Communism is technically a left wing idea, but it runs opposite to human nature, that's why "communism has never been tried". It's simply not possible.
And, for the commiefags, no our current system isn't capitalism. It is capitalism-based, but it's not free market capitalism at all.

>>1456055 Communism is putting the community first, hence the commune bit in the word. It's like when you have a bake out or birthday party, you usually share everything equally among everyone present. It's the opposite of capitalism, where the ideal there is that one person owns everything and uses it to make profit (capitalises it) for themselves. Both can be authoritarian or free, used for good or bad. left or right wing. Proponents of both tend to cherry pick the worst examples of the other to make their chosen system seem better. The best of worlds is a mix of the two, people making the most of what they have for themselves, while allowing the exess to be shared with the less able. Who you consider actually worthy of that excess depends on how generous/christian/good or how much of a cunt you are.

I worked at Honda motor company Japan division. It is totally normal work culture in Japan to take a nap at your desk at work. Devoted employees that work extremely hard are allowed to take naps at work, an honorable boss ensures that their employee is not interrupted and not scrutinized. When I was at Honda Japan it was expected of me to take naps if I wasn't taking naps people assumed I wasn't working hard enough.
