And referring to him as merely a "top official" in the headline is, at best, hiding the ball and, at worst, actively misleading readers about who this person is and why they are issuing such a dire warning.
Just incredibly irresponsible economic coverage.

Fed Risks a Recession if It Doesnβt Cut Rates Rapidly, a Top Official Warns
This 1,600-word story about the extremely non-mainstream views of Trump's handpicked Fed board member (who is still employed at the White House!!) features literally zero experts pushing back on him.
He is the only person quoted in the entire 1,600 words!! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/01/b...

SNAP isnβt saved yet. A judge gave the USDA until Monday to decide how or if benefits go out. They could be delayed, reduced, or partial. Nothingβs guaranteed.
Even if payments restart, states still have to reload cards and update systems, so delays are certain.

After whatever happened in Butler, PA, when Trump got to the hospital, the first thing he said to aides was, "How is it playing? How does it look on TV?"

The fact of the matter is that helping people costs money and that is just not popular with corporations that, for all practical purposes, own a vast number of congresspersons.

It really is amazing that when a popular young Democratic politician who wants to solve real problems for people beats an old-guard institutionalist Democrat in a primary, the institutionalist Democrat just stays in the race and basically runs as a Republican.

Please donate to your local food pantry as able.
Note - donate items you have on hand but will not use, then cash. Do not donate groceries you will use and do not buy groceries for the pantry. Donate cash instead. They know what they need, get better prices, and it saves effort for them and you.
