guardian_us‘I won’t be able to buy food!’⁠⁠Across the country, Americans who depend on government assistance to buy groceries are preparing for the worst.⁠⁠As a result of the ongoing federal government shutdown, Donald Trump has threatened to, for the first time in the program’s more than 60-year history, cut off benefits provided by the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (Snap).⁠⁠A federal judge last week prevented the US Department of Agriculture from suspending Snap altogether, but the Trump administration now says enrollees will receive only half of their usual benefits.⁠⁠The Guardian spoke to some of the 42 million people enrolled in the program.⁠⁠Many of those who responded to our callout were elderly, or out of the workforce because of significant mental of physical health issues, and worried that a cutoff of the benefit would send their lives into a tailspin.⁠⁠Swipe to read their responses and follow the link in bio for the full story.

NEW: Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.

No, it's not. Counterfactuals are really fun, but the counterfactual here is: 1) Trump challenges venue (correctly) and the case arrives in SDFL 9 months after it did. 2) In an attempt to shoehorn the charges into DC, you rely entirely on Official Acts and SCOTUS destroys it along w/the Jan6 case.

Sigh. A lot of the complaints about Smith are bogus, but this seems legitimate. newrepublic.com/post/202294/...

In any case, the bigger problem was that pundits outsourced holding Trump accountable to courts that voters were not going to follow, EVEN THOUGH a great deal was public by April 2024 (which even Dems on HJC remained ignorant of).

No media outlet did a single article on Aileen Cannon's connections to John Rosatti and the New York Mafia, so let's be generous with any blame that is handed out. Why was that not newsworthy, as she was busy throwing the case?
