Donald Trump Says SNAP Benefits Will Be Solved For November
President Donald Trump has suggested his administration may find a way to fund Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits during the ongoing government shutdown.
Speaking on board Air Force One during his trip to Asia, Trump told reporters "we’re going to get it done," but offered no details on how it might happen.
Around 42 million low- and no-income Americans collect SNAP benefits every month, which are uploaded onto electronic benefit transfer cards to be used in grocery stores.
SNAP, although a mandatory program, is funded through appropriations from the federal government. As these funds have not been made available due to the lack of agreement in the Senate between Democrats and Republicans, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has confirmed that benefits cannot be paid. The government shutdown has now reached its 29th day, running since since October 1.

Is that so, or is it baseless blather?
As always, I'll understand if you have no factual substantiation to support your assertions.

Ah ohhhhhhhhhh
Justice Department lawyers told a federal court this week that even though there are piles of money it could use for food assistance, it would be too risky to do so for November’s benefits.
During the last shutdown, in 2019, the Trump administration made extra effort to distribute SNAP benefits as a funding standoff entered its second month. In a striking reversal, the Trump administration now says its hands are tied. As a result, next month, more than 20 million households representing 42 million people will miss out on SNAP benefits averaging about $350 per household.
