The Shutdown’s Over. Trump May Still Cut Food Stamps. | The New Republic excerpt: That’s not to say food assistance was totally safe before all of this. SNAP, like all safety net programs, has endured conservative attacks throughout the years—culminating, in July, with the biggest cuts to SNAP in its history. Trump’s megabill introduced new work requirements and cut $187 billion from SNAP in order to fund tax cuts for wealthy individuals and corporations. The cuts will happen in phases, with new requirements taking place at different times in different states—making it difficult to point directly to disruption, said Jones Cox. “It could get hidden behind other things that are happening.”
The Shutdown’s Over. Trump May Still Cut Food Stamps. | The New Republic excerpt: "Donald Trump has noticed. Before this, Trump reserved much of his ire for Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, when it came to the social safety net. He rarely talked about SNAP or other food assistance programs, like WIC—the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children. Trump now appears to see SNAP as a political threat. “We can reform SNAP, and I think we should,” Trump said on Monday night in a Fox News interview, even as some Democrats readied a deal with Republicans to end the shutdown. “It really puts the country in jeopardy,” he added, claiming that people leave their jobs because “it’s easier” to be poor and rely on income-limited programs like these."

Trump’s anti-Venezuela actions lack strategy, legal authorization excerpt: “I think we’re just going to kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. OK? We’re going to kill them. You know, they’re going to be, like, dead,” President Donald Trump said in late October 2025 of U.S. military strikes on boats in the Caribbean Sea north of Venezuela. The Trump administration asserted without providing any evidence that the boats were carrying illegal drugs. Fourteen boats that the administration alleged were being operated by drug traffickers have been struck, killing 43 people. On Oct. 24, the administration began a substantial military buildup in the region. The Pentagon moved the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford and some of its strike group, along with several other naval ships, to the Caribbean and moved F-35 fighter jets to Puerto Rico. This is the largest U.S. naval deployment in the Caribbean Sea since the Cuban missile crisis in 1962.
