SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.
Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.
Don’t forget this.

Trump, who just burned $20 billion of our taxpayer dollars in a failed attempt to bailout Argentina's economy implies that American children should go hungry because "We can't give everything away."
Trump on SNAP: "Our country has to remain very liquid because problems, catastrophes, wars -- it could be anything. We have to remain liquid. We can't give everything away."

Mr. President: Don’t let kids go hungry. Use these emergency funds to feed low-income families.

I’m trying. I think they got the message that the biggest rip off in pharmacy is when patients have to pay the full list price during their deductible phase. And to make matters worse, a big chunk of the money goes to the PBMs and insurance companies

Will COVID-19 vaccines still be used in the future?
Seems like a strange question. Short answer: probably mostly in the elderly. But it’s more nuanced; it’s not primarily about preventing COVID-19 anymore.

The answer is the one in your arm.
But confusion persists if KP.2 or LP.8.1 is better. The confusion is understandable. Too much chatter about variants and the term "immune evasion" incorrectly used.

- There is no demonstrated benefit to the safety or effectiveness of MMR by giving it separately as single-virus vaccines
- Countries that have tried this have ended up with outbreaks of measles/mumps/rubella because it's harder for people to complete the series
