HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

AOC: We saw Republicans vote to completely gut Medicaid, which covers nearly half of all births in the U.S.
They did this despite the fact that the U.S.—the richest country in the world—also has the highest rate of maternal deaths among all wealthy countries.

Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it.
If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why?
Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.
