Morphine Prince 109,709 Posted November 4, 2025 Share Posted November 4, 2025 President Donald Trump on Tuesday suggested that the United States will not pay any SNAP benefits during the government shutdown, contradicting a court filing a day earlier by his administration. Trump said that the benefits, which help feed 42 million Americans, will resume only after Democrats in Congress agree to pass a stopgap funding bill that would reopen the government. The administration on Monday told a federal judge in Rhode Island federal judge that it would pay half of the costs of the SNAP benefits for November. Trump on Tuesday said in a Truth Social post, wrote, "SNAP BENEFITS, which increased by Billions and Billions of Dollars (MANY FOLD!) during Crooked Joe Biden's disastrous term in office (Due to the fact that they were haphazardly 'handed' to anyone for the asking, as opposed to just those in need, which is the purpose of SNAP!), will be given only when the Radical Left Democrats open up government, which they can easily do, and not before!" The White House, when asked by CNBC for clarification on Trump's statement given the court filing Monday, said, "Refer you to the President's truth." The social media post came shortly after lawyers for plaintiffs in a court case challenging the administration's cessation of SNAP benefits told a federal judge in Rhode Island that the decision to pay partial benefits out of a contingency fund did not meet his prior order that any decision to make partial payments "cannot be arbitrary and capricious."

Many countries will not allow disabled people to move there. Canada was just like that until a handful of years ago so now it's a little bit easier. I wasn't allowed back then when I tried for college because I “might reasonably be expected to cause excessive demand on health or social services."

LaLa 19,898 Posted November 4, 2025 Share Posted November 4, 2025 Aside from being unspeakably cruel, this also seems like a pretty crazy thing to do politically??
