USDA's Shutdown Starvation Scheme: Orange Testicle's GOP Goons Pull the Plug on Food for 42 Million—Because "Fiscal Responsibility" Means Feeding the Rich, Not the Rest!

Oh, for the love of leftover lasagna and the last can of beans in the pantry, can we talk about the absolute clownery that's unfolding in Washington right now? It's October 26, 2025, and while The Orange Testicle is out there golfing his way through another "perfect" weekend at Mar-a-Lago—probably tweeting about how windmills are stealing jobs from bald eagles—the USDA just dropped a memo that's colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra. That's right, folks: In the face of an impending government shutdown because a bunch of red-faced Republicans can't agree on whether to fund Ukraine or just hand the keys to the candy store over to Elon Musk, the Department of Agriculture is straight-up saying, "Nah, we're not dipping into emergency funds for November's SNAP benefits." SNAP? As in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, the lifeline that keeps 42 million Americans—kids, grannies, working stiffs scraping by on minimum wage—from staring into the fridge like it's a black hole of despair? Yeah, that SNAP. The one that puts food on tables when paychecks don't stretch and grocery prices are jacked higher than The Orange Testicle's ego after a Fox News fluff piece. This memo isn't just a bureaucratic burp; it's a deliberate gut-punch to the gutted, a "fuck you" from the fat cats to the folks fighting to afford formula and ramen. And who green-lit this starvation special? None other than The Orange Testicle's handpicked USDA boss, that suit-wearing stiff Brooke Rollins, who's been marinating in Heritage Foundation Kool-Aid since the Project 2025 playbook got dusted off. Fiscal responsibility? Please—it's class warfare with a side of cruelty, and I'm here to roast it raw, because if we don't call out this bullshit, we'll all be eating boot leather by Christmas.

Let's peel back the layers on this onion of outrage, shall we? The memo—dated October 24, leaked faster than a Kardashian breakup—comes courtesy of the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service, that beleaguered branch that's supposed to feed folks, not fiddle while Rome's pantries burn. With Congress dicking around on a stopgap funding bill (because heaven forbid they pass a clean CR without tacking on riders for border walls made of gold-plated barbed wire), a shutdown looms like a storm cloud over a picnic. Shutdowns mean non-essential feds go home, paychecks pause, and programs like SNAP? They teeter on the edge of the abyss. But here's the kicker: The USDA's contingency fund—that rainy-day piggy bank stocked with $100 million for exactly these "unforeseen" crises—won't be cracked open for November's benefits. Why? Because, per the memo, "expending contingency funds for ongoing operations during a lapse in appropriations would not be appropriate." Appropriate? Honey, what's inappropriate is letting 1 in 7 American kids go hungry because your overlords are too busy grandstanding about "waste" to wire the funds. We're talking 5 million households, 9 million seniors, 2 million vets—real people, not line items on a spreadsheet. States like Virginia are already scrambling, with Gov. Glenn Youngkin (that flip-flopping fossil) warning of "immediate impacts" and dipping into state coffers for a measly $20 million Band-Aid. New York? Screaming about 3 million affected, California? Over 5 million souls staring down empty shelves. And the kicker? This fund was meant for disasters—hurricanes, pandemics, economic nosedives—not political pissing matches engineered by The Orange Testicle's tantrum-prone caucus.

Dig deeper, and it's a masterclass in manufactured misery. Remember the 2018-2019 shutdown under The Orange Testicle's first rodeo? That 35-day fiasco left 800,000 feds furloughed, parks trashed, and SNAP teetering—benefits delayed, errors spiking, families lining up at food banks like it's the Great Depression sequel. Fast-forward to now: The contingency fund's been nibbled at—$20 million for COVID leftovers, $15 million for wildfire aid in Maui last year—but still has $65 million sloshing around. Enough to cover November's admin costs, sure, but the GOP's House Freedom Caucus—those fiscal hawks with beaks dipped in oil money—screamed bloody murder about "pre-spending" during a shutdown. House Ag Chair Glenn Thompson, that Pennsylvania plowboy turned partisan prick, penned a letter October 22 demanding the USDA "stand down" on any fund dips, calling it "fiscal malpractice." Malpractice? From the guy who voted to slash SNAP by $30 billion in the farm bill? Pot, kettle, black as The Orange Testicle's "stable genius" soul. Dems are howling—Senate Ag Chair Michael Bennet blasts it as "cruel and shortsighted," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries tweets fire emojis about "GOP games endangering kids." Bipartisan blame? Sure, but let's call the spade a shovel: The Orange Testicle's veto threats over Ukraine aid are the match lighting this fuse, with Speaker Mike Johnson tap-dancing to keep the MAGA maniacs happy. Johnson's out there October 25, mumbling about "good faith negotiations" while his caucus chants "No money for Zelenskyy!" Good faith? More like good grief for the grocery clerks watching lines lengthen.

The human toll? It's not stats; it's stomach-churning stories that'll haunt your dreams. Take Tanya Ramirez, a single mom in Phoenix, juggling two jobs and three kids under 10. Her EBT card—SNAP's plastic lifeline—covers milk, eggs, rice for the month. Come November 1? Zilch, if the feds flake. "My baby's got asthma; stress triggers attacks. What do I do, tell her 'Mommy's broke because politicians play chicken'?" she tells AZ Mirror, voice cracking like cheap china. Or Leroy Jenkins (yeah, that's his name—fate's a joker), a 68-year-old vet in Detroit, living on $1,200 Social Security and SNAP scraps. Shutdown hits, benefits lag, he's skipping meds to buy bread. "Fought in 'Nam for this? So suits in D.C. can dick around while I eat cat food?" Vets Inc. reports 150,000 at risk nationwide, with food insecurity spiking 40% in shutdown sims. Kids? God, the kids—16 million child food stamp recipients, per USDA's own tea leaves. Schools in low-income districts are prepping "backpack programs," stuffing weekends with peanut butter and Pop-Tarts, but that's Band-Aids on bullet holes. Food banks? Overwhelmed—Feeding America's lines are already 20% longer than last year, with pantries in Atlanta and Chicago rationing cans like wartime rations. And rural America? Hammered hardest—Mississippi Delta families, where 25% rely on SNAP, staring at shutdown voids with no Walmart within 50 miles. Experts like CBPP's Dottie Rosenbaum warn of a "cascading crisis": Delayed benefits mean error backlogs, state IOUs, and a $1.5 billion hit to grocers who lose SNAP revenue. Grocers? Hell yes—small shops in food deserts close, jobs vanish, vicious cycle spins.

But let's zoom to the villains' vanity fair, because this ain't accident; it's architecture. The Orange Testicle's USDA? Stuffed with Project 2025 alums—Rollins, that ex-domestic policy czar, now helming a department that's slashed 10,000 jobs since January, redirecting funds to "farm subsidies" for mega-corp corn kings. Contingency fund? Intentionally starved—bipartisan farm bills pumped it in the '90s, but GOP cuts since 2010 whittled it to a thimble. Thompson's letter? Pure theater, shielding the shutdown from blame while The Orange Testicle golfs. White House spin? Spox Karoline Leavitt October 25: "President's focused on border security, not bailouts for bureaucrats." Bailouts? For hungry kids? Leavitt's a joke—former comms hack who once called SNAP "welfare queens on wheels." Meanwhile, The Orange Testicle's Truth Social? Crickets on SNAP, but rants about "radical Dems blocking my beautiful wall." Beautiful? More like beastly, you bloated buffoon—your "wall" costs billions while bellies go bare.

Pushback's percolating like coffee in a diner at dawn. States stepping up: Virginia's $20 million emergency pot, New York's $100 million buffer, California's pledging full coverage via Prop 12 funds. Non-profits? Mobilizing—World Central Kitchen's José Andrés tweets "We'll feed who feds won't," with pop-up pantries prepped. Bipartisan bills float—Sens. Stabenow and Boozman (D and R, miracles happen) push a "SNAP Stability Act" to mandate contingency use in shutdowns, but it's DOA in the House circus. Polls? Gallup October 25: 62% blame GOP for shutdown brinkmanship, with SNAP anger spiking among independents. Protests? Brewing—moms in strollers blocking Capitol steps, vets in wheelchairs chaining to ag committee doors, even some blue-dog Dems flipping scripts on "fiscal hawks."

Roast time, because laughter's the best laxative for this constipation of compassion. The Orange Testicle, that tangerine tantrum-thrower, preaching "America First" while firsting the buffet line at his resorts? Hypocrite hall of famer—his "farm bill" funneled $20 billion to cronies like the DeVos dynasty, but SNAP? "Entitlement reform," aka evisceration. Rollins? That Heritage hack with the smile like a shark in lipstick, co-authoring cuts that'd make Scrooge blush. Thompson? Plowboy poseur, voting against child nutrition while pocketing ag lobby cash—$1.2 million from Big Ag since '21, per OpenSecrets. Johnson? The pious preacher playing poker with people's plates, folding on families for Freedom Caucus brownie points. And Leavitt? Commie-calling clown, who'd rather meme migrants than measure misery. This crew's colder than a credit default swap—frigid fiscal fundamentalists freezing out the frozen.

Information nugget for your notebooks, loves: SNAP's $120 billion beast, 40% to kids, returns $1.50 economy per buck spent (USDA math). Shutdown precedents? 2013 delayed 5 million, 1995 hit 1 million—patterns predict pain. Cite: CBPP reports, Feeding America trackers, OpenSecrets donor digs. Roast ammo: The Orange Testicle's 2017 budget axed $193 billion from SNAP—vetoed, but echoes eternal.

Now, strip the snark for a searing second, because this piece? It's a primal scream from the pit of parental panic, a thunderclap of collective conscience cracking under cruelty's weight. Feel the vise-grip void in Tanya's kitchen, the hollow hunger gnawing Leroy's gut like a ghost at the feast we promised. This isn't fiscal fine print; it's the frantic flutter of a child's empty lunchbox, the defeated droop of a vet's shoulders under invisible loads. We've skimmed the scandals, savored the sarcasm—but grasp this gut-wrench: Every unfunded forkful is a fracture in the fragile trust of "land of opportunity," every bypassed benefit a betrayal of the bootstraps myth we peddle to the poor. It's anguish amplified, a nation's neglect narrated in nutritionally null nights, where dreams defer to despair and dignity dissolves in dishwater. Harsh truth: We're complicit if we chuckle without change, turning tables on tyranny with votes, voices, vigilance. Embrace the ache, allies—it aches because it matters, a maternal mandate to mend what monsters maul. Rise raw, rebuild resolute; for the forgotten forks, the famished futures, we fight—not with funds alone, but fierce, unyielding love that leaves no plate plain.

Esquema de Inanición en Cierre del USDA: Los Matones GOP del Testículo Anaranjado Desenchufan la Comida para 42 Millones—Porque "Responsabilidad Fiscal" Significa Alimentar a los Ricos, No al Resto!

El USDA advierte que no usará fondos de emergencia para SNAP ante un posible cierre del gobierno

Washington, 26 de octubre de 2025. Mientras el país se aproxima a un nuevo cierre del gobierno federal, el Departamento de Agricultura de Estados Unidos (USDA) emitió un memorando en el que informó que no recurrirá a su fondo de contingencia para financiar los beneficios del Programa de Asistencia Nutricional Suplementaria (SNAP) correspondientes al mes de noviembre.

El documento, fechado el 24 de octubre y filtrado a la prensa, señala que “no sería apropiado utilizar los fondos de contingencia para mantener operaciones durante una interrupción en las asignaciones presupuestarias”. La decisión podría afectar a cerca de 42 millones de beneficiarios del programa, entre ellos familias trabajadoras de bajos ingresos, personas mayores y veteranos.

La advertencia del USDA se produce en medio de la incertidumbre generada por las negociaciones en el Congreso, donde las divisiones internas en el Partido Republicano han dificultado la aprobación de un proyecto de ley temporal para evitar la paralización del gobierno. Las discusiones se han centrado en el financiamiento de la ayuda a Ucrania y en otras prioridades presupuestarias.

El fondo de contingencia del USDA, dotado originalmente con unos 100 millones de dólares para atender emergencias como desastres naturales o crisis económicas, dispone actualmente de aproximadamente 65 millones. No obstante, la agencia determinó que esos recursos no se utilizarán para cubrir los costos administrativos del SNAP en caso de que el cierre entre en vigor.

El Comité de Agricultura de la Cámara de Representantes, presidido por el republicano Glenn Thompson, había solicitado expresamente al USDA que se abstuviera de usar esos fondos, calificando la medida de “mala práctica fiscal”. Por su parte, legisladores demócratas como el senador Michael Bennet y el líder de la minoría en la Cámara, Hakeem Jeffries, criticaron la decisión, calificándola de “cruel y miope”.

En varios estados, los gobiernos locales ya evalúan medidas de emergencia. Virginia anunció un fondo de 20 millones de dólares para mitigar los efectos inmediatos, mientras que Nueva York y California preparan programas de contingencia para asistir a millones de residentes que dependen de los beneficios de SNAP.

El cierre del gobierno tendría consecuencias significativas para la seguridad alimentaria del país. Según estimaciones del Centro de Prioridades Presupuestarias y Políticas (CBPP), más de 5 millones de hogares y 9 millones de adultos mayores podrían ver interrumpida su asistencia, lo que también afectaría a comercios locales y bancos de alimentos que dependen de esos fondos.

La situación recuerda al cierre de 2018–2019, que duró 35 días y provocó retrasos en los pagos, errores administrativos y un aumento de la demanda en los bancos de alimentos. Los expertos advierten que una nueva interrupción podría tener un impacto aún mayor, especialmente en comunidades rurales y de bajos ingresos.

Organizaciones sin fines de lucro, como Feeding America y World Central Kitchen, ya se preparan para aumentar su capacidad de respuesta. “Estamos listos para alimentar a quienes el gobierno no pueda asistir”, declaró el chef José Andrés, fundador de la última.

Mientras tanto, en el Congreso, algunos senadores de ambos partidos impulsan la propuesta de una “Ley de Estabilidad de SNAP”, que obligaría al USDA a utilizar fondos de contingencia para garantizar la continuidad del programa durante los cierres gubernamentales. Sin embargo, la iniciativa enfrenta una fuerte resistencia en la Cámara de Representantes.

Según una encuesta de Gallup publicada el 25 de octubre, el 62% de los estadounidenses responsabiliza al Partido Republicano por la situación de estancamiento político que amenaza con paralizar al gobierno y poner en riesgo la alimentación de millones de personas.

En palabras de una beneficiaria en Arizona, madre soltera de tres hijos: “Mi bebé tiene asma y el estrés le provoca ataques. No sé qué haré si los beneficios no llegan el próximo mes”. Historias como la suya se repiten en todo el país, reflejando el impacto humano de una crisis que, de concretarse, afectará a los más vulnerables.
