Shutdown Tantrum: Starving America to Force Their Radical Agenda—Just Like They Voted to Gut the Military. They voted to starve the military, but Trump stepped in and paid our men and women in uniform from auxiliary dollars. Now the Democrats want to deny food support to 1 out of 8 Americans so the Dems can get their way! Dems'
You're next!.....and the Dems don't give a Rat's Ass about you!
In a chilling echo of their ruthless tactics against our nation's defenders, Democrats are now weaponizing hunger against 42 million everyday Americans. As the government shutdown drags into its second month, federal food stamp funds are set to evaporate on November 1, leaving families, seniors, children, and veterans scrambling for their next meal.
This week, the U.S. Department of Agriculture sent a devastating memo to state agencies, alerting them to the imminent depletion of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which serves as a vital lifeline for millions of people, unless immediate action is taken. It requires about $8 billion each month to fund SNAP benefits nationwide.
Starving in the land of plenty. Food everywhere and nothing to eat!
More than two dozen states have already expressed their alarm. Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin took the extraordinary step of declaring a state of emergency on Thursday, bracing for the fallout. And it's not just SNAP in the crosshairs; the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program, which supports nearly 7 million pregnant women and toddlers under 5, is next on the chopping block. The longer this Democratic standoff persists, the deeper the cuts.
This shutdown is nothing less than a National Democrat Temper Tantrum.
This is shutdown theater at its most absurd, as Missouri Senator Josh Hawley blasted it: a full-blown "tantrum" from the left that's endangering lives for political points.
The facts are damning. Back on September 19, the House, led by Republicans, passed a straightforward seven-week continuing resolution (CR) to keep the lights on through fiscal year 2025, buying time for real negotiations on 2026 spending. It sailed through largely on party lines, a bipartisan olive branch in a divided town.
But in the Senate? Democrats have successfully filibustered the bill 12 times, refusing to budge until Republicans agree to their demands, which include extending the bloated Obamacare subsidies that are set to expire at year's end and repealing the smart Medicaid reforms from the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) earlier this year.
Ironically, they are the ones being accused of depleting the system. "Millions of American families are about to lose access to food assistance because Democrats are openly admitting to being afraid of their far-left base and refuse to reopen the government," fired House Agriculture Committee Chair Glenn Thompson (R-PA). His committee oversees SNAP, and he's had enough: "We need to reopen the government so we can put Americans first by making sure families can put food on the table and our farmers are supported."
The political heat is turning up fast. A USDA spokesperson didn't mince words: "We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats. Continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive timely WIC and SNAP allotments." It's a stark choice, prioritize radical ideology or protect the innocent.
Democrats' top voice on the House Ag Committee, Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN), echoed the plea: "It’s time the administration do right by seniors, children, and veterans and utilize the SNAP contingency fund to ensure benefits can be provided for November." Conveniently ignored? The White House has already pulled heroic temporary fixes, like shifting Pentagon R&D dollars to cover active-duty pay on October 15 and reallocating $300 million from tariff revenues to prop up WIC. But band-aids won't stop the bleeding; only ending this shutdown will.
This isn't governance; it's governance by grudge. Democrats railed against Republican "cuts" to entitlements for years, painting conservatives as heartless. Yet here they are, holding the nation's food supply hostage to appease their socialist wing. The hypocrisy is striking under previous administrations, they denounced military funding shortfalls as "betrayal," but now they're okay with empty pantries for the working poor if it means more freebies for illegal aliens!
Let's not forget the Democrats are forcing American families to starve and the military not to get paid so that illegal aliens can get food, welfare checks, and benefits. This is precisely what the Democrats are withholding from the American voting public!
Final Word: Will US families starve in the land of plenty? Ask a Democrat………

Colonel Nelson hit the nail on the head. We have entirely too many people on Government Programs that do not need to be there. We could easily cut the federal employee population by 50% and not skip a beat. We need to do away with the Department of Education, USAID, all climate change initiatives, money to states, money to all 501 3C organiztions, money to all colleges that have an endowment of 100 million dollars, foreign aid to only those countries that really need it, which is most likely 50% of those receiving it. Then we need TERM LIMITS, AGE LIMITS (No Senators of House members over 80 years old), majority concent in Congress to pass laws, budgets, and if they fillibuster, it must be done on the floor, no 60 votes like we have now to stop a fullibuster. Both Parties are guilty. Both Parties collect pay while our military does not during these shutdowns. All members should be voting like their voters who put them in office want them to vote, not voting for the Political Party. We have a massive job to do to correct our Congress. It will not be easy.
NoSlack, SO TRUE!
I would add every agency that forced that snake venom jxx on the world and us and our children. Murder tolls matter. The entire world could add up each countries' burials broken down into the 3 generations and blame us. The old died. Ask Italy. The young died. Those in the middle died. And we did it. Not us, those who work for us did it. Knowingly. There's more guilt on that than anything else. Patents prove it's ours. Doctors have proven it. Hospitals conspired to do it. So did our agencies. They all covered up their complicence and guilt. Insurance co's said 'We are so sorry.' Embalmers pulled out the 4ft clots.
Who all made money on the stock market?
10 million children worldwide lost a parent or caregiver for something that now isn't even 'a thing.'
Unless you look closely for the millions or hundreds of thousands with life-altering side affects.
WHAT A SCAM!
You want to understand a scam you might want to watch OAN John Hines. This weekend it repeats, he is discussing the connection between AARP and United Health.....naturally all connected to Obamacare!
THANKS ILONA, I'LL WATCH IT!
I think the libtards have been starving America of morals for a long time. Now, it's just food!
You can buy food but you can't buy morality!
Darn right!
SERIOUSLY: WAKE UP PEOPLE, WE ARE AT WAR WITH THE DEMOCRATS AND IF WE DON'T REALIZE IT SOON, WE WILL LOSE THE WAR. TRUMP NEEDS TO USE LEGAL WARFARE TO HAVE THE DEMOCRATS DECLARED AS A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION AND DESOLVED!
ADDITIONALLY, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT TRUMP REVOKE ALL THE VISAS FOR ALL CHINESE, MUSLIMS, AND OTHER 3RD WORLD DUMPS! ESPECIALLY THE 600,000 CHINESE STUDENT SPIES, AND THE CHINESE, MUSLIMS, AND OTHER 3RD WORLD DUMPS THAT ARE DRIVING 18 WHEELERS AND BUSES! WE CERTAINLY DON'T NEED CHINESE SPYS DRIVING TRUCKS WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS AND DANGEROUS DISEASES ANY WHERE THEY WANT, AND MUSLIMS DRIVING HEAVY HAULERS KILLING PEOPLE!
