Sacramento, CA…Governor Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta, along with other states, today submitted an amicus brief in the First Circuit Court of Appeals to defend California families’ continued access to SNAP food benefits. This follows a win yesterday, where a court ordered the Trump administration to immediately issue 100% of funding for 5.5 million California SNAP recipients. After the decision, California SNAP recipients began to see money loaded onto their cards so that families could access food as soon as possible. The Trump administration immediately appealed, continuing its fight to block families from getting the food they need to survive. Today’s brief is filed in response to the Trump administration’s request to put yesterday’s court order on hold.
“The Trump administration is literally fighting in court to block American families’ access to food. Trump is not fighting on your behalf.”
Governor Gavin Newsom
California, with more than 22 other states, filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration on October 28 over its unlawful refusal to fund SNAP/CalFresh benefits due to the nearly month-long federal government shutdown, despite possessing funds to support this critical program for the month of November. This caused 5.5 million Californians to temporarily lose critical access to $1.1 billion in food assistance for the month of November. On October 31, two federal courts found the federal government is statutorily mandated to use previously appropriated SNAP contingency funds available to them during the government shutdown, where use of reserves is necessary to continue supporting this critical program protecting over 42 million Americans – including 5.5 million Californians – from going hungry. The courts also found that the USDA has $23 billion in Section 32 funds that it could use for SNAP. Yesterday, the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island ruled that the administration must immediately restore full benefits to families, including the 5.5 million California recipients. The Trump administration is appealing this decision and fighting to ensure that families cannot access the food benefits they need.

I guess if Biden didn’t take 40% of his time on vacation, he could of solved a few more of the problems he left America and her people.
But nope, highest inflation in 50 years, Afghanistan Debacle, stood by as his weaknesses started 2 wars. All he was for, was protecting his family’s illegal businesses with our adversaries, and then gave them all blanket PARDONS of any and all crimes they committed. Besides declaring war on oil companies and draining our strategic reserves, killing jobs, letting violent criminals and gangs in to our country, using our Justice system to go after political rivals, trashing our constitution, letting antisemitism spread thru out our country, going after Christians, cause politicial violence…oh, I guess maybe Joe should of taken more vacation, he sure would of done less harm then taking only only 40% of vacation on our dime.
Poor people don’t deserve healthcare. It’s ok to triple the cost on the American family… hell it’s Christmas
Well it sure is a shame the democrats shutdown our country for their own selfish reasons. To top it off they stopped a bill that would freeze THEIR OWN PAYCHECKS WHILE THEY ARE THE ONES WHO VOTED FOR A SHUTDOWN
Affordability… fuck that said trump… time to hit the golf course
He deserve it.
Trump killing the thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. So billionaires get that sweetheart tax break
They wouldn’t be poor if they would have got off their ass and got a job
‘s up and fork the azy Communist party. Did you know over one third of the food handouts go to the Californian Communist State of America?
Ignorant POS
This is a wake up call the government is tired of taking care of the lazy worthless dopers drunks and fat ass pigs just keep popping out those little retards
How about the older people on these programs who’s fault is that they all had a chance to do something with their lives but they just pissed it away now they think someone should take care of them Bo Ho no one care about your lame ass LOL
Sure, because bad things never happen to good people who work hard
Thank You President Trump for the wonderful work you and your administration are doing keep up the good work and let’s clean up this country Thank You again!
Why don’t you ask some of these people that are driving at 3:30 4:00am to work how they fell about their tax money part of their paycheck going to these so helpless that are in bed till noon just getting up looking for a free meal just ask them and see what they say these are the people that are keeping this county going not the ones crying for free handouts.If you do goodness’s feel so strongly about the freeloaders than why not open your door and take them in bet that won’t happen
It’s a funny trick that you think the poorest among us is who is making your life worse. How is someone picking food in the fields all day taking anything from you? How is a single mom trying to feed her kids hurting you?
Jesus has strong feelings about how to treat the poor.
And just ask yourself, am I better off in a country that lets people starve?
Why doesn’t he eat the food he’s picking?
I just solved his problem.
Trying to play the blame game with Democrats now is so funny. You spent 9 months acting like a dictator, posting pics of yourself wearing a crown. And now you’re powerless in the face of uhh Chuck Schumer? Ok man lol
THE LEGACY MEDIA WAS BUSTED FOR BEING BIASED AND THIS IS PART OF THE CONSEQUENCES. JUST LIKE WITH CBS
BBC director-general Tim Davie and news chief Deborah Turness have resigned following a controversy over edited footage of Donald Trump on the BBC’s documentary series Panorama.
“I wanted to let you know that I have decided to leave the BBC after 20 years. This is entirely my decision, and I remain very thankful to the Chair and Board for their unswerving and unanimous support throughout my entire tenure, including during recent days,” Davie said in a resignation statement. “Overall the BBC is delivering well, but there have been some mistakes made and as Director-General I have to take ultimate responsibility.”
In a separate statement, Turness said, “The buck stops with me.”
The ongoing controversy around the Panorama on President Trump has reached a stage where it is causing damage to the BBC – an institution that I love,” she said. “While mistakes have been made, I want to be absolutely clear recent allegations that BBC News is institutionally biased are are wrong.”
The documentary, which aired shortly before the US election, showed a clip of Trump’s January 6, 2021, speech. According to a 19-page dossier compiled by Michael Prescott, the BBC’s former Editorial Guidelines and Standards adviser, the program “doctored” parts of the speech by splicing together parts nearly an hour apart to create the impression that Trump told supporters he was going to walk to the US Capitol with them and “fight like hell.” The video that aired was edited to omit a portion in which Trump urged his followers “to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”
Prescott called the editing “shocking,” writing, “This created the impression that Trump said something he did not and, in doing so, materially misled viewers.”
The dossier further alleged that even when BBC internal staff raised complaints under the corporation’s own standards, senior executives and the BBC chairman ignored or dismissed them, according to The Telegraph.
You saw me posting pictures weaing a crown? I looked good, didn’t I?
Oh, breaking news. Sunday, at least 10 Senate Democrats want to break the government shutdown. All congress members are in DC on Sunday.
By the way dumb dumb, maybe you should read up on how the filibuster works and why its in place.
Fuck You Nesom take a bullet for the party.
^^Take a spelling class for yourself moron.
I feel bad now giving Newsom a hard time, he really did grow up poor, and hung around with a gang. (Picture is below)
California Governor Gavin Newsom is reportedly considering a run for president in 2028, which would pit him against Vice President JD Vance. As such, he’s making the podcast rounds to tell his story of growing up poor with a single mother in Marin County, the 8th richest county in the country and the third richest in the state.
On the All the Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, both former NBA players for the Golden State Warriors, Newsom spoke about his early years, saying that he was raised by a single, divorced mom, who worked multiple jobs to make ends meet. His father had blown all his cash on a failed 1968 run for Senate and the two divorced a few years after Newsom was born.
“I was out there, kind of raising myself, turning on the TV started, you know, just getting obsessed, you know, sitting there with the, you know, the Wonder Bread and five stacks of… the macaroni and cheese,” he said, joking with the fellas.
“My mom was 19, pregnant and divorced a few years later, with two kids,” he said. “Came from no money and just hustled. You know, worked hard, grinding every single day. Two and a half jobs, no bullsh*t.
“We had roommates all the time because she couldn’t afford the rent,” he went on. “…It was also about paying the bills, man. It was just like hustling.”

Get a job .. well Cletus, the latest independent report shows the layoffs the highest since the Dot Com recession.
The don- says he has a “miracle economy ” thanks to him ? really? ask most in real life.
Amazon 15,000 laid off, UPS 20,000 many more in small business , no plans to hire in the near future.
Unemployment way up, food, affordable healthcare denied the Republican SCOTUS days NO to food for children, Seniors, unemployed, the GOP Senate says NO to affordable healthcare.
Meanwhile the don has another Great Gatsby soiree at Mara Lardo.
A depression coming caused by these sociopaths, all inflicted by the billionaires.
^Ditto
And for a reality check as to where we are headed?
Check REAL job numbers, and how they have plummeted over the past 6-8 months. In other words, since Trump has been in office.
Very telling indeed.
But, with his business failure background, why would we expect anything else?
The worst president in this countries short democratic history.
AI has been responsible for thousands of those layoffs.
I do agree with the cost of food and other consumer goods. I also realize that when President Reagan took over President Carter’s economy, it took over two years for President Reagan to bring the inflation numbers down. President Biden’s disastrous inflation numbers started in his very first year after turning over many of Trump’s policies and declaring war on big oil. Don’t you remember Biden blaming Trump, the republicans, the gas station owners, the grocery stores, businesses, for their greed? Remember? Or is it your selective memories that anything bad the left does is instantly forgotten?
Selective memory much?
Facts, data, truth matter.
History shows Republican economies cause unemployment, recessions.
Democratic administrations repair the damage.
Ask any search engine.
Facts, data, history matter, political BS doesn’t.
Try a search for the disastrous Reagan tax policies, then a complete reversal.
Again, facts, data, truth.
