Democratic senators fear getting 'hammered' after 'No Kings' for ending shutdown

[Jack Valentino]

3. INDEED---- "GOOD!" That was my first gut-level response....

However, I am still on SNAP food benefits, which will purportedly be cut off for November in many states, if the shutdown lasts that long...
(It may depend on what state someone is in, whether the individual states will be fiscally able to 'cover' for the lack of federal funds in the meantime, or not.... probably many blue states will try to do so if they can, while the red states would not, and blame it on the Democrats...)


Now, I have been stockpiling certain things (like hoarding peanut butter) in anticipation of losing those benefits after the "3 months" of November, December and January, because of the "work requirements" written into the GOP's 'Big Beautiful Abortion' bill---
which I don't anticipate being able to satisfy---

so I won't starve if my benefits don't arrive in November, or are late--- and so I am personally willing
to bear any personal inconvenience over this issue, next month anyway, for the Democrats to 'stand firm'! --


but I am concerned for those with large families who perhaps have been unable
(or unaware) to make any preparations for such a cut-off....
and they amount to many millions of American citizens, especially a lot of children---

--- so if the Democrats eventually would have to vote for the "clean bill"
based on that issue alone, I would understand it---

After all, it is NOT the DEMOCRATS who want to starve all our poorer citizens,
but it IS the REPUBLICAN NAZI wannabees, who WANT poor people to DIE---
OR WORK in the fields, because they are chasing away all the immigrant labor!

(and if they DIE, then they won't VOTE--- GQP's realize THAT,
despite their propaganda about 'dead voters'!)


I tend to "run on", maybe if I get enough recs I'll refashion this into an OP...
