The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

1. Today, I have a few things to say about that putz Stephen Miller. First, he’s been on TV a lot lately, because that’s how he pours more poison into the president’s already-poisoned brain.

The stakes for freedom of speech could not be clearer.
Trump: "When you have networks where I won an election in counties -- I guess it's 2,600 to 525, that's called a landslide times two -- when you have that kind of popularity or voter support, and yet 97% of the newscasts are against me ... I think that's really illegal."

Trump can't have it both ways. Either the economy is not only strong but "hot," and therefore doesn't need the Fed to stimulate it further. Or the economy is weak and struggling, and therefore the Fed needs to intervene and cuts rates.
Which is it?

The family's lawsuit accused Michael Byrd of ambushing Babbitt, falsely claiming he wasn't in uniform, didn't identify himself, and didn't warn before shooting.
"Ashli Babbitt was a really good person who was a big MAGA fan, Trump fan, and she was innocently standing there," Trump said recently.

Nonsense. The shooting of Ashli Babbitt was investigated and deemed a valid use of deadly force on Jan 6. The only reason Trump wants DOJ to write a check is to appease the QAnon lunatics: www.msnbc.com/top-stories/...
Trump’s DOJ agrees to settlement with family of Ashli Babbitt, rioter killed on Jan. 6
Following her death, the Air Force veteran and QAnon supporter became a martyr of the MAGA movement.
