BOSTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Friday granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown.
A judge had given the Republican administration until Friday to make the payments through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. But the administration asked the appeals court to suspend any court orders requiring it to spend more money than is available in a contingency fund, and instead allow it to continue with planned partial SNAP payments for the month.

Nope, historically, these guys never win for long. Eventually they fall, and it is ALWAYS very bad for them. Ask Hitler, Mussolini, Ceausescu, Gadhafi, and countless other dictators whose last day in office coincided with their deaths
Aside from Ceausescu the rest were deposed by outside military forces. Tell me who’s going to invade the US and save us?
