Blue State SNAP Webpages Giving The GOP A Taste Of Its Own Medicine

It seems that some blue states have finally snapped when it comes to President Donald Trump’s administration insisting that the government shutdown is the fault of Democrats.

So, they’ve decided to inform visitors that if they’re panicking because Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits will be paused on Nov. 1 due to the shutdown, they can blame the GOP.

The official Massachusetts state webpage for SNAP benefits now has an alert that says, “President Trump is currently choosing to not issue November SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.”

The alert expands to say: “Starting in November, on a rolling basis some people will see a cut in SNAP because of changes Congressional Republicans and President Trump enacted in the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill.’”

California’s social services website boasts a similar message.

Like the overgrown spoiled toddlers they are.

Is that enough name-calling for one post?
