Because the assholes in the government can’t agree on anything (because most Republicans don’t want anything good for the American public, such as affordable healthcare), the government shut down on October 1.

Among many things the shutdown has affected is SNAP or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program which provides food benefits to 42 million Americans. Of course the decision to halt SNAP benefits was decided before the shutdown even happened.

So November 1 came and people learned they weren’t going to have SNAP benefits for November. Some lawsuits were filed against the SHITHOLE “administration”, legal demands of the release of SNAP benefits were issued, SHITHOLE filed an appeal, the appeal was denied, SHITHOLE ran to the Not So Supreme Court and a temporary 48-hour “pause” was put in place.

Meanwhile many states said “fuck you SHITHOLE and the Not So Supreme Court” and went ahead and released SNAP benefits to their constituents anyway because, SHOCKER! People need to eat to survive!

There’s also a question as to whether the USDA and/or SHITHOLE has the money to provide SNAP benefits. Because it’s believed SHITHOLE has appropriated the money for himself. Because it costs money to destroy the Shit House and put in a new tacky bathroom. And that 40 billion to Argentina didn’t come out of SHITHOLE’S pockets.

As of this writing it appears we may be on the verge of the government opening back up, albeit for a short while. Because once it’s realized that compromises can’t be made, it will shut back down again. And soon it will be December. Meanwhile food banks are becoming overwhelmed.

If leaving a legacy of starving Americans is what SHITHOLE wants to be known for, he’s on the right path.
