Federal judge orders Trump to restore SNAP payments—futile in a lawless land where the nation ravenously consumes its own

A haunting allegorical painting depicting a pale young woman standing in a desolate urban street beneath a leaden sky. She holds a folded newspaper with the headline “Federal Judge Orders Trump to Fund SNAP Payments”, her expression subdued and sorrowful, embodying quiet endurance amidst social decay. Behind her, a derelict grocery store looms, its windows dim, while a billboard blazes with nationalist fervour—“AMERICA FIRST — STRONG AGAIN”—featuring the grinning visages of suited politicians. The contrast between her fragile humanity and the propagandistic spectacle underscores the tension between empathy and authoritarian indifference. The scene’s palette—muted ochres and ashen blues—conveys moral exhaustion, evoking a modern dystopia where hunger and political cynicism coexist. In the shadows, a homeless figure cradles a child, amplifying the painting’s elegiac meditation on neglect, inequality, and the collapse of civic compassion.

{ABC News 6 November} Federal judge orders Trump to fully fund SNAP November payments by tomorrow, 7 November.

SPOILER ALERT: Trump shall not do so, and there is nobody stepping up to force him to comply. WARNING: these assaults on Medicaid and SNAP are mere probes of public apathy—Social Security shall be the next citadel besieged. Trump and his confederates are getting away with literal murder—met with mass approbation.

Do not prattle of polls to me: for about a decade, between forty and sixty per cent of Americans have consistently either cheered this tinpot-dictator on or have averted their gaze, whilst the Democratic Party remains the nation’s most reviled institution—particularly among men, the devout and superstitious, the rural, and above all those who bear arms. The Democrats have not secured a majority of the white vote in a presidential election since 1964. Democracy lies dead now—for the majority of Americans, as of humankind generally and eternally, elevate tribal loyalty above reason or principle.

Abandon all hope of repairing the former United States: the self-styled patriots have slain their country in the name of ‘saving’ it. The Democratic Party—and its voters—have for far too long busied themselves with pronouns, quotas, and assorted p.c. frivolities, yet possess not the slightest courage when it comes to confronting the true adversary: the white-trash American—most often rural, though found everywhere—who enables this criminal network of nation-destroying tyrants. And they would see the rest of us dead and gone. That is why all this unfolds—and that truth must be spoken plainly, the bloody feelings of white-trash be damned (none, after all, are more enslaved to their feelings than those who bellow “f**k your feelings”). —Arthur Newhook, 6 November 2025.
