[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]USDA has billions in contingency funds. It has been used to cover SNAP during previous shutdowns. But the Republicans chose to weaponize it instead. A judge ordered them to pay up from the contingency fund. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10/31/us/trump-news?campaign_id=60&emc=edit_na_20251031&instance_id=165552&nl=breaking-news®i_id=72743657&segment_id=209721&user_id=26869c7395f1f5cdbf02703f998a7bbe[/quote] And based on reporting, the administration’s attorneys do not believe that the government can tap into those contingency funds. Trump has been very clear that he will distribute the funds so long as he legally can, and is requesting additional guidance from the courts on how to legally distribute the funds. It’s a breath of fresh air to have a president who actually considers the legality of his actions, unlike Biden who kept trying to forgive student loans for the wealthy elite, and a president who is fighting so hard to get food stamps to those in need despite the democrats’ treasonous actions leading to the prolonged closure of the government. https://www.axios.com/2025/10/31/snap-hearing-massachusetts-state-lawsuit-trump[/quote] You know we have a whole coequal branch of government, composed of presidentially appointed individuals who have the authority to interpret the law and issue binding orders right??? [/quote] Which is why Trump is asking said branch how to distribute the funds legally. We are in a situation where a liberal activist judge ordered Trump to do something his attorneys believe is explicitly illegal, and Trump needs to know how they are supposed to do so. It’s like if you went to court because your neighbor’s fence crosses your property line, and the judge tells you that you can just murder your neighbor.[/quote] Did you not watch the schoolhouse rock video in grade school? Trump's attorneys are not the ones who determine legality, the judiciary is.[/quote] Which is why he is going to the courts and asking for their guidance. Again, Trump is fighting like hell, in a reality where getting that answer will likely require the government to spend millions on consultation going all the way up to the Supreme Court due to the clearly biased and compromised lower courts, to get deserving Americans their food stamps. Meanwhile, the democrats are sitting there and have voted 19 times specifically to starve our wonderful American patriots.[/quote] Why was this not a "battle against the gods" when emergency SNAP-allocated funds were released during previous interruptions in SNAP provision? WHy can't Trump figure this out, when other presidents could? What is he missing?[/quote] Other presidents don't figure it out. They just go with flow and pass the problem down the line. Some things need to change, because financially, things are becoming mathematically uncertain[b]. He's trying to course correct before we tip over[/b]. Having to pay more in interest on the debt than the entire DoD budget should be a clue. In fact, it should have been a clue decades ago. But problems compound (pun intended).[/quote] This is the funniest thing I’ve read in perhaps forever. Where the hell have you been? His tax bill is adding $4 trillion to the debt. We just passed$38 trillion. We were at $37 trillion in August and he added another $1 trillion faster than at anytime IN HISTORY outside of the pandemic He was responsible for adding thru legislation or executive action more than $8 trillion his first term (double Joe Biden btw). His tax bill creates new expensive giveaways that will be hard to curb. Especially the new senior deduction. His tax bill makes the social security trust fund insolvent a year earlier. DOGE was a joke that is costing our government more money. The one thing he is doing on the other side of the ledger is he created a new national tax that we are all paying (tariffs). It does not come close to offsetting the balance sheet of his tax bill for billionaires. Hilarious that you think cutting food assistance off from poor people is about getting our $38 trillion and quickly counting debt under control. You should consider standup. [/quote]
