Vice President JD Vance is blatantly attacking the Constitution’s separation of powers after a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to fully fund the Supplemental Assistance Nutrition Program.
Speaking in the White House Thursday, Vance called the ruling “absurd,” because “you have a federal judge effectively telling us what we have to do in the midst of the Democrat government shutdown.”
“What we’d like to do is to have the Democrats open up the government, of course, then we can fund SNAP, and we can also do a lot of other good things for the American people,” Vance said. “But in the midst of a shutdown, we can’t have a federal court telling the president how he has to triage the situation.”
Seems like it’s doing something and not “chicken shit.”
USDA memo: Full funding for SNAP recipients in November In a memo, the USDA says it will work with states to ensure SNAP benefits are fully funded for November. It comes as the Trump administration appeals a federal judge’s order to fully fund the program.
Oddly, shortly before the shutdown Trump also had to rehire many of the federal workers he illegally fired because the judges did “chicken shit”
