LilMikeSFAccording to the "#Nonpartsan" Center on #Budget and #Policy Priorities , run by a former #OMB official, the current #DJT Mach II #government has reserve $ funding avail to continue #SNAP #foodstamp benefits for 22 million recipients during the record #GovernmentShutdown , but for political reasons #GOP #Drumpf charges have chosen not to offer relief aid to nation's poor
While every liberal is toasting #NoKings day as an affront to #Drumpf
#ProPublica , Politico and others concede that the nation's actual cut throat commander in brief and deed is hardcore #RWNJ and avowed #ChristianNationalist #Federalist feudalist #OMB strategist #RussVought
Under his direction, the US has cut billions in so-called #humanitarian federal spending on things that irked #Libertarians like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and even #PresidentReagan's own initiatives like our now defunded #NGO created under his tutelage known as the #InstituteofPeace

Democrats feign outrage as Trump administration shutdown layoffs hit: 'They seem to be enjoying it'
Gina Intheburg 🇺🇦 🌻 🥥🌴Just had a grt session w/an #SSA cust svc asst who, despite me calling ½hr before closing time on a Friday night before a holiday weekend, was cheerful, helpful, patient, & spent all the time I needed to get my problem solved - and solve it she did.
Wasn't til we were signing off I realized this great svc'd just been rendered by a person who's not only not being paid b/c #TrumpShutdown, but also likely not sure she won't be "RIFFed" by evil #OMB director Russ Vought.
Public servants are heros.
