YouTube Description
as posted by the channel25 states + D.C. are suing the Trump administration after it announced a SNAP (food stamps) suspension during the shutdown—the first time in the program’s 60-year history aid could halt. Dr. Allan Lichtman explains why this could be illegal under the Administrative Procedure Act, how 40–42 million Americans would be hit, and why this fits a broader pattern he calls “policy by cruelty.” We also unpack whether this is a long-game maneuver to shrink safety-net spending and then blame the shutdown on Democrats for political cover.
