Description

In breaking news, two Obama-appointed judges—one in Rhode Island and one in Massachusetts—have issued emergency orders ensuring that $6 billion in contingency funds will flow to 40 million Americans living below the poverty line, many of them Trump voters, to prevent a catastrophic cutoff in food stamp payments. Michael Popok explains why there are two separate lawsuits on the same issue, how each judge approached the case differently, and why both rulings ultimately reach the same critical outcome.

The money that the federal government is holding BELONGS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. It was allocated to go to a food stamp program for the people, NOT FOR TRUMP to spend how he want's to spend it. Keep your hand off our money Donald.
