Zone1 Supreme Court issues emergency order to block full SNAP food aid payments

[DukeU]

With all you lefties out here screaming "feed the needy", there ought to be plenty of you jumping at the chance.

 

[Hellbilly]

Cos truth hurts.

So you want me to help every disabled person in the country?
Why don’t billionaires step up?

 

[DukeU]

Not everyone has people to depend on

That's where you come in.

You should be volunteering to do so.

Just one would do.

What is your disability?

 

[Hellbilly]

What is your disability?

None of your business

 

[DukeU]

None of your business

I thought so,

I understand the political “game of chicken” being played by him and congressional Republicans over the government shutdown, but when he chose to block court-ordered SNAP food benefits—knowing it would delay or deny food assistance to families already waiting more than a week—it crossed a line.

SCHUMER SHUTDOWN. A clean CR has been presented to the democrats to keep the gov't open while facilitating budget negotiations. Republicans have voted to accept it and Schumer's democrats have chosen to reject it FIFTEEN times. Trump has NO VOTE, so your attempt to vilify him for Schumer's actions are purely false.

The greed on display is sickening, especially from someone spending public money hand over fist on vanity projects while ignoring what actually contributes to the prosperity and wellbeing of ordinary Americans.

Please link to those 'vanity projects' that are publicly funded. If you are referring to the East Wing of the WH, that is privately funded with a big chunk of the funding coming from YOUR boss, Bill Gates and Microsoft.

Secondly...why did the administration appeal the ruling?

Because these activist judges are apparently unaware that the judiciary does not write spending bills. The SCOTUS needed to remind them to stay in their own lane. BTW, Trump doesn't write spending bills either. Maybe you should encourage Schumer to open the gov't and negotiate the budget in good faith by not holding his constituency hostage to his partisan desires.

That doesn’t solve the problem

 

[Concerned American]

Or send $20B to Argentina. Right?

Irrelevant, however since you brought it up--the ROI will be 100% better than the democrat's 'gender studies in Pakistan.'

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Trump should go full on dictator and order the government open ahd the bills paid.

 

[Captain Caveman]

That doesn’t solve the problem

You perceive the government not feeding people to be the problem. I see people not developing themselves into being self sufficient and families not helping to be the problem.

I see your point. Let’s get rid of the VA as well.

Our government is supposed to be of the people, for the people, by the people. Right now, all most of the people — from the poorest families to the working and middle class—are getting is screwed over.

Please show me any portion of the enumerated powers in Articme I, Section 8 of the Constitution that gives Congress the power to spend Government money to help ANY individual citizen. Look hard because I can’t find one.
