Aus aktuellem Anlass hier noch mal der Hinweis an alle Hobbydetektive und MitarbeiterInnen: wenn du siehst, wie jemand Lebensmittel stiehlt, dann hast du nichts gesehen. So einfach ist es. 🤷🏻♀️ #Armut #Hunger #KümmerDichUmDeinenEigenenMist
"Unless the government shutdown ends this week, which seems basically impossible, federal support for SNAP will be cut off this Saturday.
Here are four things you should know about the imminent hunger games."
1. "This is a political decision — specifically, a Republican decision."
~ Paul Krugman

>2 dozen states sued the #Trump admin Tuesday over its recent refusal to fund #FoodStamps during the government #shutdown, seeking to spare roughly 42 million people from #hunger & financial hardship starting in a matter of days.
The states, including officials in Arizona, California & Massachusetts, asked a federal judge to force Washington to tap emergency reserve money so that families do not see an interruption to their benefits under #SNAP starting Nov 1.

“When people can’t get their #SNAP, they’re going to go to the #food banks. There isn’t enough food in the food pantries to handle this need. I mean, they’re all saying we’re going to run out of food. There’s no way we can replace everybody’s SNAP benefits.” https://www.texasobserver.org/snap-benefits-shutdown-will-leave-hungry-students/
Yesterday, Pope Leo posted the statement below (it's from his Dilexi te) on Twitter (aka X), and MAGA went wild plastering the posting with enraged comments. Someone shared this tweet in a Reddit posting devoted to Christianity and enraged MAGA posted so many hateful comments that Reddit took the posting down.
MAGA wants to wrap the cruelty of denying food to children in Jesus. Leo begs to differ.

"Trump’s 'Gatsby' gala wasn’t homage but autopsy — a champagne-soaked dirge for a nation that once believed in class, grace, and conscience. ...
Trump, the man who once wrapped himself in the mantle of populism, threw a party mocking the very people who once believed him."

#Trump admin seeks to halt #SNAP #food #aid payments after a #CourtOrder
Trump’s admin asked a federal appeals court Friday to block a judge’s order that it distribute November’s full monthly SNAP benefits amid a #US govt #shutdown, even as at least some states said they were moving quickly to get the money to people.

"In a scathing ruling handed down just minutes ago, Judge John McConnell ordered the Trump administration to immediately deliver full November SNAP benefits to every state, blasting officials for their brazen refusal to obey his earlier mandate."

Trump told #states on Saturday to “immediately undo” any actions to provide full #FoodStamp benefits to #LowIncome families, threatening financial penalties if they do not comply. The late-night guidance from the #USDA adds to the uncertainty surrounding the nation’s largest anti-#hunger program during the govt #shutdown. Officials in several states said they remained unsure on Sunday how the directive would affect the roughly one in eight Americans who rely on #SNAP.
#Trump admin renews #SCOTUS appeal to keep full #SNAP payments frozen
The request is the latest in a flurry of legal activity over how a program that helps buy groceries for 42 million Americans should proceed during the historic US govt #shutdown. Lower courts have ruled that the govt must keep FULL payments flowing, & SCOTUS asked the admin to respond after an appeals court ruled against it again late Sunday.
