  2. They can find money for everything except for feeding the most desperate Americans. Shame on them.

  5. “Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01. We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats.”

    Oh what a fucking load….

  6. That is gonna affect a LOT of his voters

    Edit: a lot of people not understanding the word affect

  9. The point is to hold American lives hostage to force Dems to cave. It’s give in or he literally kills people. It ultimately might work honestly at a certain point if the suffering gets bad enough.

  10. I find it very interesting trump will negotiate with Putin, Xi, and Kim but not with Canada or democrats.

  12. It’s funny that Trump can move money around to pay the military but he claims it would be illegal to move money around for food stamps.

  14. MAGA. A wealthy country that fails to feed their people is a failed state.

  15. Sounds like a republican issue. They could always pass a simple bill allowing for snap benefits to go through during the shutdown. But they won’t because they’d rather people starve.

  17. I hope everyone remembers this at the polls. The Republicans are wilfully starving children. They could stop this at any time. They would not even have to open the government, they could pay for SNAP and nothing else but they are refusing.

    Republicans want the nation to suffer.

  18. Do they really think there’s going to be an upside for them here? They want to blame the Dems but the dems aren’t in charge of three arms of government.

  20. If this had happened under Biden, maga would be screaming about all the dead kids from this.

  21. This is so stupid on it’s face unless he is pushing for an uprising against him to put down… At this point I really believe that is all they want.

  22. Meanwhile Argentina’s president gets to have free money! And a lot of it, too!

  24. There is absolutely no reason for people to be starving in this country.

  26. A lot of trump voters are on welfare too. Maybe some of them will wake up, and realize that voting for the rights of billionaires doesn’t help them a bit.

  27. I’m curious, as I’ve always heard that once a society experiences lack of food that’s when things get off the rails, so in wondering if the millions about to be put in that spot will react…

    I’m willing to bet a good portion on assistance aren’t even aware of such happening. I’m sure many do, but it sucks even worse when you think you have it coming and it doesn’t… 😪

  28. All part of the plan. When the masses start to starve they will lash out, probably violently, which will be the fuel needed for our DICK in Chief to declare martial law and take away everything else we have.

  29. Why does this administration need approval to do something all of a sudden? Did they need approval for DODGE? Tariffs? The White House Ballroom?

    They could if they wanted to.

  30. These motherfuckers. Seriously, building a ballroom buying private jets but you poor people can fucking starve for all they care. I am contributing very heavily to food Banks right now because they’re going to be needed very badly.

    How dare the richest country on earth let people starve! And don’t tell me that people can go to churches or whatever It shouldn’t have to fall down to that. My tax money can go to eat hungry people.

  31. Sounds like the administration is proud no food assistance is going out in November. They keep repeating it.

  32. “Hey starving people, the program that fed you… well we froze it because it’s a Democrat program. That’s why we froze it. Hate them. Like us!”

    – the most awesome Trump strategist

  34. Can someone please explain to me how we have no money to feed our citizens, but at the same time have more than enough to bail out Argentina, give a puppy killer two new jets, and demolish the People’s House to make room for the most ostentatious gold ego boost for the Cheeto in Chief?

  35. Thank goodness the Argentinians are being spared such hardship.

  36. Blue states should force employers to start withholding federal tax dollars. We are sending the federal government money but they aren’t holding up their part of the social contract.

  37. PSA for all American reading this: The rest of the world – literally – doesn’t have government shutdowns. Payments and services continue – always. No new government elected? Doesn’t matter. No majority to pass a new budget? Doesn’t matter.

    Wages are paid, services are rendered.

    Because literally no other country is that outright insane.

  38. Children are going to starve more in the richest country in the world, while the wanna be king is demolishing a historic building for a gilded ballroom.

    History will not be kind.

    It almost like they are being cartoonishly evil to illicit a response from good people as an excuse to rule with a violent iron fist.

  39. Hey, French people… Y’all are good at these revolution things. Can you help us?
