The Snapanese, a normally reliable Democratic constituency that depends on what the vernacular refers to as food stamps, may ‘Pearl Harbor’ progressives after their month-long recalcitrance on re-opening the government.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides an average of more than $350 per recipient household a month. The welfare program pays for milk, eggs, apples, and other groceries at the supermarket, which frees up funds, for those so inclined, for scratch tickets, neck tattoos, and meth pipes.

In the United States, the Snapanese outnumber Asians, LGBTQers, and Californians to make for a powerful interest group. If SNAP were a country, its population would exceed Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Ukraine. Forty-two million Americans, 12 percent of the U.S. population, receive SNAP benefits.
But when Halloween runs out of time, the SNAP benefits run out, too.
“Let me be clear,” a gesticulating Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) said on CNN earlier this week. “The administration is choosing to starve American children with money that they already have appropriated.”

Do the Snapanese live in the land of the thieving son?
And one more time.
This is not about winning the next 2026 general election.
Their extremists are batshit crazy. They have sworn to, and WILL, primary challenge anyone who bends the knee to Trump.
That’s it. There’s nothing more to this. These people CAN’T vote for the CR. They CAN’T if they want to keep their seat. It’s not about the seat going to the GOP. It’s them losing their seat to some Dem primary challenger.
There is no fix for this.
Are the snapanese threatening to attack Pearl Bailey?

“Do the Snapanese live in the land of the thieving son?”
LMAO!
Snapanese!
A valuable new term is coined.
may ‘Pearl Harbor’ progressives after their month-long recalcitrance on re-opening the government.
I don’t get it either. It’s rather ungrammatical. I took it to be a variation of “Don’t let a good crisis go to waste.”
Constituencies that opposed FDR’s New Deal nonetheless supported him during World War II.
Snapanese
Love it, it in the nomenclature now...
