Supreme Court issues emergency order to block full SNAP food aid payments The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown.

It’s disgraceful that the administration chose to go to court instead of fulfilling its responsibility to the American people.

I will not stop fighting until every family has the resources they need to put food on the table.

@bluntrochester.senate.gov you can't trust Republicans to follow thru.

Freshman Senate Dems and House Republicans to huddle on bipartisan ACA plan Lawmakers hope they can produce a framework that can eventually pass, which would also give Democrats cover to vote to reopen the government. Two Senate Democrats and two House Republicans are planning to huddle Friday over a possible bipartisan plan to extend soon-to-expire Obamacare subsidies, according to four people with direct knowledge of the matter. Centrist Senate Democrats are working feverishly to hammer out an ACA framework in more detail to give Democrats an off-ramp to vote to reopen the government. Freshman Democratic Sens. Andy Kim of New Jersey and Lisa Blunt Rochester of Delaware invited GOP Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey to talk about the forming bipartisan proposal, according to two of the people. The goal is to develop the contours of a plan to address the Affordable Care Act tax credits that are used by more than 20 million Americans, and will cause premiums to spike if they are allowed to expire at the year’s end. Van Drew has been talking with President Donald Trump to try to get him to support a one-year extension at the very least. Senate Democrats are working to reach agreement on a bipartisan ACA extension plan that GOP leaders would agree to hold a vote on once the shutdown is over. And, if that plan gets 60 votes in the Senate, a swath of House Republicans will then press Speaker Mike Johnson to put it on the House floor. Johnson has said repeatedly, as recently as Thursday morning, that he won’t commit to allowing a House vote on the expiring subsidies. Spokespeople for Van Drew and Fitzpatrick didn’t immediately respond to inquiries. As an alternative, four other people with direct knowledge of internal party strategy say a handful of House Republicans are privately indicating a willingness to eventually support a Democratic-led discharge petition on a measure to extend the subsidies β€” a procedural maneuver allowing rank-and-file members to force a vote on legislation without leadership’s blessing. β€œWe would find a way,” one House Republican said.

Trump treats the words β€œgroceries” & β€œaffordability” like a foreign language and posted 30 times about his marble toilet as he builds a $300 Million ballroom while fighting in court to starve Americans and take away health care - but y’all think he cares about working people?

House Democrats should be on the floor, every second of every day of the #GOPShutdown. 24/7. Saying that they are working, why is the #GOP on Vaca? Schedule that shit! Show how the GOP are loser slackers.

Understand what's happening. MAGAs are gutting:

β€’Medicaidβ€”which 60M Americans rely on to survive

β€’SNAPβ€”which 40M Americans rely on to eat

β€’School Lunchβ€”which 30M kids rely on daily

β€’Housing Assistanceβ€”which 5 million families rely on to live

ALL to cut $4.5T in taxes for 800 billionaires

BARBARIC

Inequality has been slowly creeping into America for 45 years, but 2025 will show an explosion of intentional and wide-out-in-the-open greed.

Unless enough Americans wake up and band together to stop it.

Happy birthday, @pbs, and thank you for (just off the top of my head) Mister Rogers, Bob Ross, Sesame Street, Cosmos, Reading Rainbow, Nova, Frontline, The American Experience, The Magic School Bus, and Nature.

The good you put into this world, and the return on my investment, is astronomical.

Trump hosted a "the Great Gatsby" themed Halloween party at Mar-A-Lago, with the actual tagline "A little party never killed anyone," while Congress remains shut down and SNAP funding remains uncertain.

It's like they're re-creating the Balfour drawing.

If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

This weekend, we turn our clocks back an hour.

The Trump administration, however, has already turned its collective clocks back to the Jim Crow era,
