As one of our loyal posters points out, theyâll do this, and then turn around talking about â how good the economy isâŚthere are 3 million less people on food stampsâ.

July 22, 2019, 11:00 PM CDT Updated on July 23, 2019, 4:59 PM CDT
The Trump administration moved to end food stamp benefits for 3.1 million people, the day after the president reached a deal with Democrats to raise federal spending by tens of billions of dollars for the next two years.
The proposed rule curtailing food assistance, announced Tuesday, drew a sharp rebuke from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who called it an âact of staggering callousness.â
âThis proposal perfectly showcases the Republicansâ cynical special interest agenda that gives billion-dollar handouts to big corporations and the wealthy few, and then steals from children, veterans, seniors and working families to make up the difference,â Pelosi said.
Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said the administration acted to restrict statesâ ability to automatically enroll beneficiaries of some federally funded welfare programs because many state governments âhave misused this flexibility.â
âWe are changing the rules, preventing abuse of a critical safety net system, so those who need food assistance the most are the only ones who receive it,â he added.
About 9% of all households currently receiving food stamps and 13.2% of all currently participating households with at least one elderly member will lose the assistance, the Agriculture Department projected in a regulatory impact analysis.

Rupert Murdoch’s son-in-law told Succession star Brian Cox his wife finds the show ‘hard to watch’ because the biting satire about a media dynasty family emulates them so closely
Keith Tyson approached Brian Cox in London last year to say he liked the show
Cox, who plays the aging family patriarch Logan Roy, did not recognize him
Tyson then said that while he liked it, his wife finds it ‘hard to watch’
Tyson, who is an artist, is Elisabeth Murdoch’s third husband
Succession mocks the fictional Roy family and is largely inspired by the real-life Murdochs
Its plot lines mirror some of the Murdochs’ recent family history

Last night’s debate revealed the real bias in the media which is the assumption that the status quo is “moderate” and anyone that proposes structural changes is “radical”
In my view, letting people die because they can’t afford insulin is more extreme than proposing a new policy

Will multiple misrepresentations derail Trumpâs DNI nominee?
07/31/19 12:40 PM
By Steve Benen
Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas), Donald Trumpâs choice to serve as the director of National Intelligence, made a specific boast on his website, telling the public he âput terrorists in prison.â That, in and of itself, wouldnât necessarily qualify the far-right Texan to oversee the entire U.S. intelligence community, but it would certainly be a relevant detail when evaluating his record.
If it were true, that is. All of the available evidence makes clear that the Republican never âput terrorists in prison.â He worked on a terrorism-funding case a few years ago, but to say Ratcliffe was involved in securing convictions is to wildly exaggerate his role.
Itâs tempting to simply stop here. An inexperienced and unqualified congressman misrepresented his counter-terrorism record, which seems like the sort of thing that should be a deal-breaker for a nominee to serve as the nationâs top intelligence official. Those who lie about prosecuting terrorists obviously shouldnât serve as DNI.
But we can keep going. As the New York Times reports today, âthere are other examplesâ in which Ratcliffe appears to have âoverstatedâ elements of his background.

Raging white man gets knocked out â twice â after attacking black father at community pool
Published July 31, 2019
By Travis Gettys
An Oklahoma City man was knocked out twice and then arrested after harassing and attacking a black father at an apartment complex swimming pool.
Joshua Valentine was accused by witnesses and police of verbally and physically attacking the black man July 20 at the pool as he played with his children, reported KWTV-TV.
The 28-year-old Valentine allegedly punched the other man, who fought back and knocked out his assailant.
Valentine awoke a few minutes later and left the pool area, police said, but returned with a baseball bat.
Witnesses said he swung the bat at the black man, who fended him off with a chair and then punched him several times â knocking Valentine out a second time.
Police arrested Valentine, who was charged with malicious harassment based on race, and he spent six days in the the Oklahoma County Jail before he was released on bond.

GOP senators push Trump admin for a new tax break for the wealthy
07/31/19 10:40 AMâUPDATED 07/31/19 11:00 AM
By Steve Benen
Republican policymakers already approved a massive package of tax breaks a year and a half ago, and by any fair measure, the GOP tax plan hasnât worked out as planned.
Itâs against this backdrop that several Republican senators are demanding another tax cut to benefit the wealthy â though this one would come from the Trump administration, not from Congress. The L.A. Timesâ Michael Hiltzik explained yesterday that 21 GOP senators, led by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), sent a joint letter to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin âdemanding that Mnuchin deliver a new tax cut via executive fiat.â
