US supreme court issues emergency order blocking full Snap food aid payments (www.theguardian.com)

The supreme court has issued an emergency order temporarily blocking full Snap food aid payments.

The high court’s order came after the Trump administration asked a federal appeals court on Friday to block a judge’s order that it distribute November’s full monthly food stamp benefits amid a US federal government shutdown.

After that request to block was denied, the Trump administration turned to the supreme court in a further attempt to block the order to fully fund Snap food aid payments.

The application to stay reads: “If forced to transfer funds to Snap to make full November allotments, there is no means for the government to recoup those expenditures – which is quintessential irreparable harm. Once those payments are made, there is every indication that the States will promptly disburse them. And once disbursed, the government will be un-able to recover any funds. Worse, these harms will only compound if the decision below stands.

My deepest sympathies to all Americans, even the ones who support Trump. At the end of the day, they're just victims of the system like the rest. And no matter the outcome of the last election, this was inevitable, Trump or no Trump. At best it could have been postponed by a few years.

I wish it was different, but I can't see all of this ending with anything less than a full blown revolution and/or world war. Nobody wants this and everyone would like to avoid this, but it just doesn't look at all possible right now.

After long decades of enslavement, brain washing, tyranny, and terror, a good chunk of Americans is realizing that there's no world in which this is acceptable or excusable.

In addition, there's finally again a superpower to rival the USA.Whatever your feelings on the USSR or China - there can never be just one superpower, because we've seen what that leads to. I wish it was the European Union, but it looks like the USA was mostly successful in destroying all efforts for Europe to become truly great and powerful. At the very least China is currently more friendly than the USA has ever been. Let's hope they keep this attitude even after America crumbles. That's probably the most optimistic scenario I can think of.

Also they say they're christians. I think we should call them post-christian trump death cultists.

Here's an excerpt from Matthew 25 to bust out whenever you talk to one of these fucks:

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.

For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink,

I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'

Headline should read “supreme court encourages politicians to screw Americans over more”
