Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Morales: I don’t care if you’re the most individualistic person on the planet—because you “lift yourself up by your bootstraps” and think government should stay out of your business and “don’t tread on me.” Climate change is already treading on you, and you should care about this issue.

Trump wants people to go hungry while he has lavish dinner parties.
Trump is so hellbent on imposing more unnecessary pain on American families, he’s defying court orders and preventing those in need from accessing critical support to help put food on the table. This Administration knows no low.
Trump says SNAP will only get paid after shutdown
The post appears to defy two federal courts' rulings.

The court ordered SNAP to keep running using emergency funds. But Speaker Mike Johnson shrugged: “It’s not as easy as hitting go-send on a computer.” Millions of kids, vets, seniors, and disabled Americans could go hungry for Thanksgiving while the GOP plays political games. #TruthbombTuesday

Restoring snap benefits is under the control of Trump, not the Democratic Senators. Courts have already required that emergency funds be used.

Congressman Joseph Neguse serving as the U.S. representative for Colorado's 2nd district put the Government Shutdown into perfect perspective. His statement here should resonate with American's from all walks of life.
