βThis has NOTHING to do with the SHUTDOWN. The law REQUIRES and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption.
So that is a DECISION the president is making on his own to ALLOW people to go HUNGRY." - Senator Peter Welch on SNAP Cuts

The Constitution Strikes Back in Chicago
In a Chicago courtroom, Judge Sara Ellis reminded federal power who it answers to: the Constitution.
Trumpβs Border Patrol thought they could trample Chicago. Judge Sara Ellis proved them wrong. She dragged their commander into court & made the Constitution bite back. This is what democracy looks like when it fights & wins. Read, post, & share it everywhere:

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.
A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."
