DoomsdaysCWPropublica: “The Alarm Bell”: #Arizona’s Drop in #SNAP Participation Signals Potential Nationwide Impact of Trump Legislation
Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act imposes stricter food stamp work requirements and shifts a larger share of the costs to states. Arizona’s swift implementation has made it more difficult to apply and caused nearly half of recipients to lose benefits.

"More than 400,000 Arizonans have lost their SNAP benefits since July — the largest decline in the nation by a wide margin — as an underfunded state agency administered changes called for in President Donald Trump’s so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
"The drop represents nearly 47% of the state’s participants in the program better known as food stamps and includes about 180,000 children, according to the Arizona Department of Economic Security, which administers the program.
"On Wednesday, the nonpartisan Center on Budget and Policy Priorities released data through February showing that the reduction in Arizona has far outstripped other states. After Arizona, the largest loss of participants was in Florida, where less than 16% of recipients lost benefits since July, according to the center’s analysis.
"Arizona officials attribute the plunging caseload to swift implementation of policy changes forced by the bill, including new work requirements.
"But interviews suggest that Arizona’s efforts to comply, combined with cuts to the agency that runs the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, have contributed to the decline — making it more difficult to apply and causing people who are eligible to be denied. The state’s drop has exceeded previous projections.
" 'Arizona is just the alarm bell,' said Joseph Palomino, executive director of the Arizona Center for Economic Progress, a nonpartisan advocacy organization. “This is likely going to happen in every state.' "

QuasitSo the administration is slashing SNAP and food aid to blue states to trigger food protests that they will label "riots". They'll claim that the governors and mayors in those blue states are either unable to maintain law and order, or are outright in insurrection. Then they'll send troops in.
I presume they will be terrorizing citizens, or trying to. Trump is pretty much panting at the bit to have American troops kill American citizens. But what comes next? Is the goal to establish an absolute reign of terror in the blue states, and thereby control the elections? That's the only thing that I can think of that would make any sense, even from their warped point of view!
What do you think?
So, yeah... From November 2024... This is what they wanted all along! Curse the Democrats who voted to end the #Shutdown!

b҉The Trump administration told states that they must “immediately undo” any actions to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income families, in a move that added to the chaos and uncertainty surrounding the nation’s largest anti-hunger program during the government shutdown.
The Agriculture Department issued the directive in a late-night Saturday memo, viewed later by The New York Times. That guidance threatened to impose financial penalties on states that did not “comply” quickly with the government’s new orders.

The President Is Perfectly Fine If You Starve
The message behind the government shutdown is loud and clear: Hunger is acceptable collateral damage in service of Trump’s agenda.
By Alain Stephens
"For the first time in modern American history, its leader is intentionally starving his own people."

Supreme Court issues order to block full SNAP payments
The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown. A judge had given the Republican administration until Friday to make the payments through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. But the administration asked an appeals court to suspend any court orders requiring it to spend more money than is available in a contingency fund. After the appeals court declined to immediately intervene, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson issued an order late Friday pausing the requirement to distribute full SNAP payments until the appeals court rules on whether to issue a more lasting pause.
