USDA tells grocery stores: No special discounts for SNAP recipients


USDA tells grocery stores: No special discounts for SNAP recipients
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) emailed grocery stores prohibiting them from offering discounts to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients amid the government shutdown.
The email, shared Sunday by MSNBC’s Catherine Rampell to social platform X, said that grocery stores “must offer eligible goods at the same prices and on the same terms and conditions” to SNAP recipients.



They are fighting tooth and nail to keep these people hungry. Why would anyone have a problem with SNAP recipients receiving a discount if they are not receiving their full benefits. This administration is just cruel for the sake of being cruel. I guess they will blame that on democrats as well. - Jessica

Of Course Mike Johnson Wants The Shutdown
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Tuesday he is not in favor of a stopgap measure that would only fund the government until December, preferring a January time frame.






The fact that everyone thinks SNAP is rife with fraud by Black people is thanks to a lie started by Ronald Reagan when he first ran in 1976 and talked about "strapping young bucks buying T-bone steaks with food stamps." It was a racist lie then. It's a racist lie now. - Tim Wise

Trump administration says SNAP will be partially funded in November


President Donald Trump’s administration said Monday that it will partially fund SNAP after two judges issued rulings requiring it to keep the nation's largest food aid program running.



Years of SNAP funding exist RIGHT NOW, paid for by our taxes.

"A roaring 20s Great Gatsby Halloween Party where he's posting this hours before 42 million people will not have new money for food during the holidays... There's a reason people are putting Marie Antoinette memes up of Trump. Because that's how this feels... He's turned his back on his own voters." - Gavin Newsom









DOJ Says Blowing Up Suspected Drug Boats Is Okey Dokey!
A senior Justice Department official has told Congress that the Trump administration can continue lethal military strikes on alleged drug traffickers without congressional approval and that the administration is not bound by a decades-old war powers law, two congressional sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

On Friday, federal judges in Massachusetts and Rhode Island issued rulings that could soon bring relief to millions of Americans whose Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits are set to expire on Nov. 1, requiring the Trump administration to fund the program, at least partially while the legal proceedings continue.









If you're laughing about SNAP running out and kids going hungry, your parents failed.
