Trump Says He’ll Defy Court Order, Withhold SNAP Until Dems Drop Demands and Reopen Gov’t
(talkingpointsmemo.com)
Or the dems can hold on and gain on both, especially with a TACO.
this is rediculous. you guys in congress know that the country cannot remain as a stable and nice place if he is not impeached. you can't just let a president break the law constantly. impeach. impeach. impeach.
What congress? The Republicans won't even let the house meet anymore
I'm so confused. I heard that people won't be getting SNAP benefits. Then I heard that two judges ordered Trump to give them their benefits after all. Then I heard that it's only being partially funded (I guess people are expected to eat only 3-4 days a week). Then I heard Trump is refusing to fund it. Then I heard the Whitehouse said it is being funded despite Trump's social media posts saying otherwise.
So are people getting to eat or aren't they?

Hard to say really, I don't think anyone knows, especially Dickwad in chief.

Overidding his own administration after they agreed that that they can and will do the thing. Fighting in court to avoid doing the thing. Defying a court order to do the thing. All while blaming the democrats for his not doing of the thing.
I did not see this coming, did you?
/s for the dumb people
He thinks he holds the purse strings. We'll use it to carry his head to the jeu de paume court.
Go ahead and make more people hungry, their children hungry. Go ahead and find out what desperation breeds.
I'm starting to think he illegally misappropriated those funds and now literally can't use them for their intended purpose cuz he's broke.
That money has already been promised elsewhere in some deal. Make Trump new enemies by denying his ability to pay up.
I think Dems should not pass any legislation while the administration ignores the laws that already exist.
I don’t get it, with the federal judges saying they need to pay, does he has legal power to ignore court orders
He thinks that courts won't have the support of police to enforce it, or that the Supreme Court will simply refuse to uphold any kind of sanction.
But... he's right?
Exactly what I said. Trump made the law irrelevant. And the Republicans cheer him for this.
Looks like TACO is back on the menu boys.
