Trump admin warns 42 million Americans could lose food stamps as shutdown drags on. ​

USDA is warning that SNAP funds will run dry starting November 1st. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) said it does not have the ability to independently reshuffle funds into the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), commonly known as food stamps, according to a recent memo obtained by Fox News Digital.

The Government shut down is causing a lack of funds. Trump is not going to do anything about it. He is using this as a tool to get the Democrats to give in on the Government shutdown position.

I do know that the Trump supporters will be saying that this is Chuck Schumers fault as he is the one that advocated for the Democrats not to give in. Nonetheless, the man in CHARGE is Trump and the responsibility falls on his shoulders as he is in a position to fix this, either by giving in to the demands of the Democrats not to cut Medicaid and Medicare, or by finding the funds to give to the SNAP program so that these Americans do not starve!

This will show if Trump truly cares about Americans or if it is all about power and control.

Hey - little detail for you.. a President of one party has absolutely ZERO chance of getting members of the opposite party to vote his way. NONE.
And anyone who thinks that - especially the hated, loathed Trump can simply tell them to do something and they will - is a blithering idiot.
Are you a blithering idiot?

Bullcrap!

Democrats hate Trump way too much for you to decry the lack of unity. He's only the opposing quarterback, because you could not bring yourself to do anything BUT oppose him. He will be in your head for the rest of your life, even if that lasts decades after Trump's life.

Bullcrap! There is simply no way to have you see what you do not want to see or what is not in your DNA to see.

Democrats are showing a lack of unity with Trump because everything he has done has been against the principles that the Democrats believe it.

Let me ask you a simple question and see if you have the balls to answer it.

"If someone was your leader and what he did was specifically hurting you and everything you believe, would you UNIFY with him and help him hurt you?

And no, he will not be in my life the rest of my life if he is no longer hurting me. I do not even think about all the greedy and evil people that are not in my life after they are "out of my life"

You want unity? Get behind the duly elected leader and support him in his efforts to keep the country doing in the face of Democratic Party malfeasance.

You want unity, don't destroy what I believe in.

Democrats, Republicans, and everyone else will benefit when Schumer stops cowing at the feet of AOC and re-opens the government.

Schumer is standing up for what the Democrats believe in.

But you can only focus on Trump.

Yes, I focus on the negatives that are affecting me, my family, my community and my nation. Why wouldn't I focus on it. I am a man that is always seeking solutions to the problems in my life that I need to solve.

Answer the question nobody else seems to be able to:

How exactly will this shutdown lead to people not having to pay for their own ACA exchange-provided healthcare, except for the already incredibly generous ACA subsidies? What will come between Trump and the Republicans completely re-writing their CR to include making permanent the Democrat's temporary ACA Supplemental COVID subsidies?

Ever hear of income inequality? Well, the FACT is that the poor and middle class have less buying power than they had 12 years ago. As such, they have less of an ability to pay for their needs. In addition, if you are old (cannot work anymore) or have become handicapped (you cannot do the same kind or amount of work you did before), you no longer have the ability to earn enough to pay for health insurance.

In addition, and using one example that I personally live with. The price of insulin (for diabetes) has doubled in price (100%) over the last 10 years but income for the middle class has only increased 5.7%. If I am a diabetic and need insulin, where do I find the additional income to pay for that? Do I have to work 3 jobs-a-day to do it?

People go hungry, the military doesn't get paid, federal unions demand Democrats sign the clean CR, Stephen Miller looks for more non-essential people to lay off for good, but then . . . all of a sudden . . . what, exactly?

People go hungry because Trump is trying to take away even more than what they have already lost. The military has not lost anything. They do not need the amount of economic income to survive as much as the poor, old, and handicapped people do to survive. Why does Trump choose the latter and not the former?

Now let me ask you a question, if I am 100% wrong and have an insane amount of TDS (as you say I have), why do you spend SO MUCH TIME answering (and debasing) me. Do you have nothing better to do? You like to waste time doing things that are not beneficial to you (or the country)?

Or is it that I make valid points you do not like to hear and want to shut me up?

Compromise has been a regular feature of American politics, including between Democrats and Republicans, throughout U.S. history. However, the willingness and ability of the two parties to compromise have varied significantly over time, with periods of strong bipartisanship interspersed with intense partisan polarization.

Bullcrap! There is simply no way to have you see what you do not want to see or what is not in your DNA to see.

Democrats are showing a lack of unity with Trump because everything he has done has been against the principles that the Democrats believe it.

Which are what, exactly?

Let me ask you a simple question and see if you have the balls to answer it.

"If someone was your leader and what he did was specifically hurting you and everything you believe, would you UNIFY with him

In a democracy, I would ask how my party dropped the ball, and why my party was so unpopular, now.

and help him hurt you?

And no, he will not be in my life the rest of my life if he is no longer hurting me. I do not even think about all the greedy and evil people that are not in my life after they are "out of my life"

How is Trump hurting you, specifically?

You want unity, don't destroy what I believe in.

You brought up the idea of unity. I know democrats only want to divide us. I was calling you on your hypocricy.

Schumer is standing up for what the Democrats believe in.

Which is taxfunded healthcare for people who crossed the border illegally.

Yes, I focus on the negatives that are affecting me, my family, my community and my nation. Why wouldn't I focus on it. I am a man that is always seeking solutions to the problems in my life that I need to solve.

How is Trump hurting your family?

Ever hear of income inequality? Well, the FACT is that the poor and middle class have less buying power than they had 12 years ago. As such, they have less of an ability to pay for their needs. In addition, if you are old (cannot work anymore) or have become handicapped (you cannot do the same kind or amount of work you did before), you no longer have the ability to earn enough to pay for health insurance.

So, how does that lead to Democrats opposing a community service requirement for free Medicaid?

In addition, and using one example that I personally live with. The price of insulin (for diabetes) has doubled in price (100%) over the last 10 years but income for the middle class has only increased 5.7%. If I am a diabetic and need insulin, where do I find the additional income to pay for that? Do I have to work 3 jobs-a-day to do it?

Or you could have spent your life seeking the training, experience, and education needed to get a good paying job with good health benefits, instead of planning to be a professional burden on society and complaining that "it ain't enough."

People go hungry because Trump is trying to take away even more than what they have already lost. The military has not lost anything. They do not need the amount of economic income to survive as much as the poor, old, and handicapped people do to survive. Why does Trump choose the latter and not the former?

Because if morale falls in the military and soldiers quit because they see themselves as of less priority than welfare deadbeats, the nation's security is harmed.

If SNAP and AFDC deadbeats quit, what? Democrats lose voters?

Besides, the way to make sure SNAP benefits get paid is to sign the simple and clean CR, and then negotiate your other priorities. Why isn't your Party doing that?

Now let me ask you a question, if I am 100% wrong and have an insane amount of TDS (as you say I have), why do you spend SO MUCH TIME answering (and debasing) me. Do you have nothing better to do? You like to waste time doing things that are not beneficial to you (or the country)?

Or is it that I make valid points you do not like to hear and want to shut me up?

Stop debasing me by accusing me of debasing you.

"Why are you doing this" is an asinine question for one message board poster to ask another.

The hilarity of the liberal hivemind is in full display with you.
When Democrats refuse to compromise - it is perfectly okay, they are "fighting against Trump".
When Republicans do it - EVIL!! TERRIBLE!!! NAZIS!!

The GOP has compromised, this is a continual resolution to keep funds at the same level compromised to, while they continue to comprise and work on a budget

The Dems are refusing to do that and are demanding things that a CR can’t even address

They are terrorist holding the country hostage

Whatever lib loon knows a person who begins to starve, send me their contact info and I’ll have them rake my leaves for $50 worth of food. Maybe 1 out 10 would take it.

.

Have had that experience in my town. A guy who would help build raised beds for my garden for $50/HR refused to mow my lawn for $50/HR.

So the guy that I subsequently hired to mow my lawn and blow snow off my sidewalks also just painted my exterior and I gave him $500 more than his estimate. He also fixes gutters and roofing, stained my deck and does just about any odd job for well over $50/HR. He has worked very reliably for me for a couple of years.

Ten republican senators to sponsored a bill that would give snap funding during this shutdown. Democrats torpedoed it just like they torpedoed the clean continuing resolution.

How did Democrats torpedo S. 3024?

My understanding is it has been referred to committee in a Republican-controlled Senate.

Post what the Healthcare Plan was that they were going to replace it with and why haven't they reintroduced it?

Dense much? The Democrats will never let anything pass that isn't single payer, they will never harm the fake legacy that is the ACA

Because not enough Democrats support it.

Not to mention, Democrats have torpedoed at least 13 clean CR attempts that would have funded SNAP immediately and fully.

They won’t be starving in NM ( the largest SNAP participants in the country) The governor just promised them $ 65.00 ea to be loaded to their card.

The purpose of the contingency fund is for emergencies or other unusual circumstances. they should not be used to thwart the current will of congress.

I'm not sure if you have any personal experience of depending on SNAP benefits in order to eat daily, but millions of Americans understand the emergency nature of that very real prospect.

 

[georgephillip]

No one will starve.
If you're unable to eat without the government subsidizing your food, you deserve the motivation hunger brings.

What sort of "motivation" do you expect a ten or twelve year old child will draw from denying her SNAP benefits?
