A policy that could cause states to drop out of the SNAP program entirely should not be left to chance (literally) - which is exactly what Diane Schanzenbach and my new piece on SNAP Payment Error Rates and the OBBBA cost shift finds. Read all about it here: www.hamiltonproject.org/publication/...

The SNAP state cost-shift policy leaves the program’s existence to chance - The Hamilton Project
Lauren Bauer and Diane Schanzenbach find that the SNAP cost shift to states will fluctuate unpredictably and considerably from year to year solely based on random chance.

1/ You might assume that investigative journalists are cynics. In reality, we’re optimists. We immerse ourselves in the details of harm and abuses of power because we believe that once people know the truth, they will demand better. And they do.
We pursue the answers the public needs. You make it possible. Donate now.

Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.

I think whoever is explaining the rules spends way too much time discussing the (D) and the (R)s and forgot to mention that in the end, politics is a co-op game.

Nothing to see here, just two wealthy white child rapists, quoting another wealthy white child rapist, about how Black people shouldn't be allowed in polite society.
An email from Jeffery Epstein to Jean Luc Brunel whuch states: "It will probably be asked, Why not retain and incorporate the blacks into the state, and thus save the expence of supplying, by importation of white settlers, the vacancies they will leave? Deep rooted prejudices entertained by the whites; ten thousand recollections, by the blacks, of the injuries they have sustained; new provocations; the real distinctions which nature has made; and many other circumstances, will divide us into parties, and produce convulsions which will probably never end but in the extermination of the one or the other race." - Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XIV, 1782.

They are being told they have immunity when they don't. They are being told it's in violation of 18 USC 111 to film ICE or CBP during their operations and it's not. They are being told they are not subject to civil rights lawsuits and they are not. They are not educated enough to know better.
