Federal Judges Push Trump Administration to Resume Partial SNAP Payments

By Thomas Stevenson | The Post Millennial It is not clear how much those getting benefits will receive. The Trump administration on Monday said that there would be partial funding of SNAP after two judges ruled that the administration had to continue to fund SNAP despite the government shutdown.   The partial funding will go forward, but it is not clear how much those getting benefits will receive.   “Per orders issued by the United States District Courts for the Districts of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, FNS [Food and Nutrition Service] intends to deplete SNAP contingency funds completely and provide reduced SNAP benefits for November 2025,” the Department of Agriculture said in court documents.  There are around $4.6...

Education Dept Tightens Loan Forgiveness, Excludes Groups Promoting Trans Surgeries and Illegal Aid

By: Jaryn Crouson | The Daily Caller The Department of Education (ED) on Thursday updated a rule on public service employee eligibility for student loan forgiveness, disqualifying any who work at organizations that advocate for sex change operations for minors, or which aid illegal aliens. The Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program generally applies to government workers and some nonprofits that are deemed to be serving the public, but the new rule disqualifies employers who “have a substantial illegal purpose.” The disqualifications include “aiding and abetting violations of Federal immigration laws,” “supporting terrorism or engaging in violence,” “engaging in the chemical and surgical castration or mutilation of children,” “engaging in the trafficking of children to States...

ICE Shakeup: Trump Officials Move to Strengthen Immigration Enforcement

By Anna Giaritelli | Washington Examiner EXCLUSIVE — The Trump administration has begun to purge Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials in offices in five major U.S. cities and fill some of those top posts with senior Border Patrol agents who will take over interior immigration enforcement in those regions, according to five sources familiar with the plans. ICE leaders in Denver, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and San Diego were relieved of their jobs and moved to other posts within the federal agency last Friday, the Washington Examiner has learned. Over the weekend, the Department of Homeland Security quietly started overhauling how it carries out its mass deportation operation in hopes of netting more arrests and ratcheting up its ...

Election Integrity Battle Heats Up Over Proof-of-Citizenship Requirement

By: Fred Lucas | The Daily Signal Two-thirds of state attorneys general have jumped into the fray over a potential federal rule to require proof of citizenship for voting forms. The U.S. Election Assistance Commission, a four-member federal panel, will review a petition started by watchdog group America First Legal to add the requirement on the federal voter registration form. Now, 19 Democrat attorneys general—led by Rob Bonta of California—oppose such a rule, and 14 Republican attorneys general—led by Ken Paxton of Texas—support it. America First Legal said about 353,000 public comments were officially registered with the government on the issue, with the overwhelming majority in favor of the requirement. The comment period closed on Monday. “It’s imperative that only elig...

Denver Takes Trump Administration to Court Over Alleged Funding Restrictions

By: Heather Willard | KDVR FOX31 DENVER (KDVR) — The city and county of Denver has joined Chicago, New York, Boston and more in a lawsuit against the Trump administration for allegedly imposing illegal conditions for grant funding. Denver said that the new lawsuit aims to prevent the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency from requiring compliance with the current administration’s stance on diversity, equity and inclusion to get grant funding. “President Trump is threatening to strip cities of critical funding for everything from fighting fires to protecting concertgoers at Red Rocks from serious threats,” said Denver Mayor Mike Johnston in a release. “These grants have nothing to do with diversity, equity, and inclusion and everything to ...

Trump Layoffs Hit Left-Leaning HUD Office Accused of Obama-Era Social Engineering

By: Luke Rosiak | The Daily Wire When the government shutdown ends, some workers at left-wing government offices may not return. More than 400 employees at the Department of Housing and Urban Development were issued layoff notices on Friday, primarily targeting an office that pushed left-wing ideology, a department official told The Daily Wire. The federal government has been shut down for more than two weeks, with only “essential” workers reporting for duty, as Democrats refuse to grant a temporary funding extension unless Republicans add in new funding. The Trump administration said in a court filing that some 4,000 workers across seven agencies should be laid off instead. A HUD official said the largest office targeted by the 442 layoffs at that agency is the Fair ...

Sources say former Trump aide John Bolton may be indicted within days

By Just the News staff | Just the News John Bolton, President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, is facing criminal charges as soon as next week, MSNBC investigative journalist Carol Leonnig reported Friday afternoon while on air. The acting U.S. attorney in Maryland is moving forward with the charges, Leonnig reported, citing two people familiar with the case. The case has been before a grand jury for several weeks investigating whether Bolton improperly possessed classified national security information in his Maryland home. Bolton was fired by Trump during his first administration and has been a frequent critic of the president.  The FBI conducted a surprise raid of Bolton’s home in Bethesda, Maryland, on Sept. 22 in what was reported as a search for su...

GOP Warns Democrats’ Budget Plan Redirects Billions to Noncitizens

By Amanda Head | Just the News The Democrats' own proposal seeks to repeal the section of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that ends healthcare for aliens. At midnight Tuesday, the government shut down. Prior to the deadline, Republicans passed their budget proposal out of the House of Representatives, but Senate Democrats, along with Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, shot it down, 55-45.  While Republicans have branded this the "Schumer Shutdown," blame-slinging began months ago when negotiations commenced to avert the budget showdown.  The clarity of Democrats' desire to give illegal immigrants free healthcare is abundant, as evidenced by every single Democratic nominee eagerly raising their hand in support of the policy at the June 2019 ...
