Neguse: "It is outrageous that the Trump administration can come up with $40 billion to bail out Argentina and refuses to spend the money that Congress has appropriated to feed hungry families in America."

Trump admin to end auto extensions for thousands of immigrant work permits Refugees, asylees, and those with Temporary Protected Status could all be affected by the move to end EAD extensions, DHS said.

The Trump administration just ended automatic work permit extensions.

That means thousands of legally authorized workers may lose jobs as USCIS takes months to process renewals.

Employers will lose staff. Families will lose income. And our already-stalled economy will take another hit.

Welch: "This 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."

The disappearance of Americaโ€™s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders weโ€™ve been waiting for.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

Iโ€™m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

Rand Paul on Trump's strikes on boats: "I would call them extrajudicial killings. This is akin to what China does, what Iran does with drug dealers -- they summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public. So it's wrong."

Trump administration says it won't tap emergency funds to pay food aid The move means 42 million people will miss SNAP benefits in November unless Congress acts.

The peasants can eat cake. Queen Donald the Terrible needs her ballroom.

Do you understand what this means?

They're planning a violent takeover of US citizens in plain sight
Telling us what they are planning to do

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO STOP THEM?

Where's the "Don't tread on me" crowd now?

Not an ounce recovered.

Not a shred of evidence provided.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.

And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

โ€œAccording to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.โ€

โ€œSNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.โ€
