This shutdown is much more complicated that it at first appears. You probably guessed that already. Many factors are in play, both political and financial. Benefits are in play. Both Federal and State food support programs exist. Gov. Newsum has other goals with his lawsuits. There are short term reserves, but less than a month's worth. There are actual elderly and others who are legitimately needy and eligible. States cannot lawfully cover SNAP costs. It's a Federal entitlement program and not State funded. Congress holds the purse strings. There is no co-mingling of funds. Dims say nobody eats until the Repubs give in. It's always the blue states. Anchor babies are eligible, but undocumented illegals are not. Illinois and California have the most. It's difficult to get off the benefits. Cal's Governor is lying as he goes Biblical. Illegals will still get benefits. There are emergency actions the President can take. Use Congress salaries for food. Trump can frame food security programs nicely. The triple CCC. When Tore testifies against Brennan, she'll be looking hot. Good liver news too. Trust your President because he knows what he's doing.
