How strange, watching a country’s government fight so hard to make sure its people cannot eat.
They should know better … no better way to start revolutionary thought than to make people hungry.
We are animals and you can abuse humans in many ways but as soon as you go after their food … they’ll fight to change things.
Every revolution in history started with hunger, near hunger or the threat of hunger.
That’s what they want. An excuse to legally use the military.
The Supreme Court on Friday granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown, even though residents in some states already have received the funds.
A judge had given the Republican administration until Friday to make the payments through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. But the administration asked an appeals court to suspend any court orders requiring it to spend more money than is available in a contingency fund, and instead allow it to continue with planned partial SNAP payments for the month.
After a Boston appeals court declined to immediately intervene, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson issued an order late Friday pausing the requirement to distribute full SNAP payments until the appeals court rules on whether to issue a more lasting pause. Jackson handles emergency matters from Massachusetts.
Her order will remain in place until 48 hours after the appeals court rules, giving the administration time to return to the Supreme Court if the appeals court refuses to step in.
Cases take months to go thru the courts btw guys. Good luck
Odd that it’s Jackson doing this.
Jackson handles emergency matters from Massachusetts.
But does that mean she made the decision herself, or is she just announcing it?
One theory I read is that she grabbed it to push it to resolution faster.
