Supreme Court blocks lower court order forcing Trump administration to fully fund SNAP program

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The U.S. Supreme Court issued a temporary block on Friday on a lower court’s order requiring the Trump administration to fully fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program amid the government shutdown.
The decision came shortly after a federal appeals court on Friday denied a Trump administration request to temporarily block the lower court ruling.
On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Jack McConnell rejected the administration’s effort to only partially fund the benefits program for some 42 million low-income Americans for November as the shutdown drags on, giving the government 24 hours to comply.
«People have gone without for too long,» McConnell said in court.

After the appeals court ruling, the Trump administration filed the emergency appeal to SCOTUS late Friday.
«Given the imminent, irreparable harms posed by these orders, which require the government to transfer an estimated $4 billion by tonight, the Solicitor General respectfully requests an immediate administrative stay of the orders pending the resolution of this application by no later than 9:30pm this evening,» an administration spokesperson told Fox News.
New York Attorney General Letitia James responded to the Supreme Court decision Friday, calling it a «tragedy.»
«This decision is a tragedy for the millions of Americans who rely on SNAP to feed their families. It is disgraceful that the Trump administration chose to fight this in court instead of fulfilling its responsibility to the American people,» she said in a statement.
The Supreme Court ruling came after the U.S. Department of Agriculture on Friday said it is working to comply with a judge’s order to fully fund the program for November.
In a letter sent to all regional directors of the SNAP program on Friday, Patrick Penn, deputy undersecretary for USDA’s Food, Nutrition and Consumer Services, said, «FNS is working towards implementing November 2025 full benefit issuances in compliance with the November 6, 2025, order from the District Court of Rhode Island.»
He added, «Later today, FNS will complete the processes necessary to make funds available to support your subsequent transmittal of full issuance files to your EBT processor.»

Penn said the department would keep regional directors «as up to date as possible on any future developments and appreciate your continued partnership to serve program beneficiaries across the country. State agencies with questions should contact their FNS Regional Office representative.»
He scolded the Trump administration for failing to comply with the order he issued last week, which required the U.S. Department of Agriculture to fund the SNAP benefits programs before its funds were slated to lapse on Nov. 1, marking the first time in the program’s 60-year history that its payments were halted.
The judge also said Trump officials failed to address a known funding distribution problem that could cause SNAP payments to be delayed for weeks or months in some states. He ordered the USDA to tap other contingency funds as needed.

«It’s likely that SNAP recipients are hungry as we sit here,» McConnell said Thursday.
Trump administration officials said in a court filing earlier this week that they would pay just 65% of the roughly $9 billion owed to fund the SNAP program for November, prompting the judge to update his order and give the administration just 24 hours to comply.

«The evidence shows that people will go hungry, food pantries will be overburdened, and needless suffering will occur,» McConnell said. «That’s what irreparable harm here means.»

Former Rep. Gohmert blasts Jack Smith for allegedly targeting his personal phone records in J6 probe

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: Former Rep. Louie Gohmert blasted ex-Special Counsel Jack Smith for allegedly targeting his personal phone records as part of his investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots, telling Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview that his action «destroys the checks and balances that the founders counted on.»
Fox News Digital exclusively reported Thursday morning that Smith targeted then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s personal, private phone records, as well as Gohmert’s.
JACK SMITH SOUGHT THEN-HOUSE SPEAKER MCCARTHY’S PRIVATE PHONE RECORDS IN J6 PROBE, FBI DOCS REVEAL
Fox News Digital exclusively reviewed the document that FBI Director Kash Patel recently shared with Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Sen. Ron Johnson containing the explosive revelations. Grassley and Johnson have been leading a joint investigation into Smith’s «Arctic Frost» probe.

According to the document, Smith, on Jan. 24, 2023, allegedly sought the «toll records for the personal cell phones of U.S. Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (AT&T) and U.S. Representative Louie Gohmert (Verizon.)»
The information was included as part of a «significant case notification» drafted by the FBI’s Criminal Investigative Division May 25, 2023.
«It is astounding that Jack ‘Frost’ Smith went on this persecution,» Gohmert told Fox News Digital Thursday. «Apparently, this guy has never read the Fourth Amendment because you have to describe with particularity what it is you’re going after — there should be probable cause, and they had no probable cause. They were going on a witch hunt.»
Smith had sought Gohmert’s personal cellphone records from November 2020 through the end of January 2021.
«They don’t have any regard for the Fourth Amendment,» he said. «It makes Watergate look like school yard folly.»
But Gohmert said it is the «principle.»

«It is the separation of powers that is the problem,» Gohmert explained. «People and whistleblowers contacted me regularly from within the DOJ and the FBI about overreach within the FBI and DOJ. By grabbing my records, they could stifle reporting of potential crimes by people within the agencies.»
JACK SMITH TRACKED PRIVATE COMMUNICATIONS, CALLS OF NEARLY A DOZEN GOP SENATORS DURING J6 PROBE, FBI SAYS
«You can’t just go seize members of Congress’ records even with a warrant because of that separation of powers,» Gohmert said. «There has to be a wall and that’s what troubles me more than anything.»
Gohmert told Fox News Digital that he didn’t remember who he spoke with during the time period Smith sought records, but said that «the last thing I want is for someone who trusted me to keep their name private to have some jack-booted thug like Jack ‘Frost’ Smith grab my records and find out who is tattle tailing on him.»
He added: «It violates and destroys the checks and balances that the founders counted on.»
Gohmert, though, told Fox News Digital that he trusts the current Justice Department and FBI leadership.
«I trust the DOJ and trust the people running the FBI,» he said. «We’ll see if there were any crimes committed and, if following the Constitution, they can be properly prosecuted.»
HAGERTY PRESSES VERIZON OVER FBI’S ACCESS TO HIS PHONE RECORDS DURING JACK SMITH PROBE
Meanwhile, McCarthy said he will take legal action against Smith.

«Jack Smith’s radical and deranged investigation was never about finding the truth,» McCarthy told Fox News Digital. «It was a blatant weaponizing of the Justice Department to attack political opponents of the Biden administration. Perhaps no action underscores this point more than the illegal attempt to access the phone records of sitting members of the House and Senate — including the Speaker of the House.»
«His illegal targeting demands real accountability,» McCarthy continued. «And I am confident Congress will hold hearings and access documents in its investigation into Jack Smith’s own abuses.»
HAGERTY PRESSES VERIZON OVER FBI’S ACCESS TO HIS PHONE RECORDS DURING JACK SMITH PROBE
«At the same time, I will ask my own counsel to pursue all areas of redress so this does not happen to anyone else,» McCarthy said.
The revelations come after Fox News Digital exclusively reported in October that Smith and his «Arctic Frost» team investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots were tracking the private communications and phone calls of nearly a dozen Republican senators as part of the probe, including Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and GOP Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania.
An official told Fox News Digital that those records were collected in 2023 by Smith and his team after subpoenaing major telephone providers.
Smith has called his decision to subpoena and track Republican lawmakers’ phone records «entirely proper» and consistent with Justice Department policy.
«As described by various Senators, the toll data collection was narrowly tailored and limited to the four days from January 4, 2021 to January 7, 2021, with a focus on telephonic activity during the period immediately surrounding the January 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol,» Smith’s lawyers wrote in October to Grassley.
Grassley, R-Iowa, and Johnson, R-Wis., have been investigating the matter.

An FBI official told Fox News Digital that «Arctic Frost» is a «prohibited case,» and that the review required FBI officials to go «above and beyond in order to deliver on this promise of transparency.» The discovery is part of a broader ongoing review, Fox News Digital has learned.
Smith, after months of investigating, charged President Donald Trump in the U.S. District Court for Washington, D.C., in his 2020 election case, but after Trump was elected president, Smith sought to dismiss the case. Judge Tanya Chutkan granted that request.

Qué leer esta semana: autorretrato de una niña violada por su padrastro, Viviana Rivero y la verdad sobre el cuidado del riñón

Sí, los libros nos acompañan bajo las frazadas en invierno y en la felicidad del aire libre o de una buena ventana cuando la temperatura empieza a subir. Los temas que tocan pueden ser reconfortantes como la primavera o de una dureza acorde con lo más polar del invierno. Esta semana tendremos un poco de todo.
Aquí hablaremos de Triste tigre, una verdadera historia de terror publicada por Anagrama y narrada con calidad literaria por Neige Sinno, la mujer que era una nena cuando su padrastro la violaba, entre los siete y los 14 años. Tambien de Secretos de sangre, donde la escritora argentina Viviana Rivero retoma personajes de su primer éxito para narrar historias cruzadas entre la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Argentina contemporánea. Y, finalmente, de Por mis riñones que hoy como diez veces bien, donde el médico Borja Quiroga y el cocinero Miguel Cobo muestran cómo cuidar en serio los riñones, sin caer en mitos. Como agregado, un bonus track, gratis, de Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, que en estos días compite por el National Book Award, el gran premio literario de los Estados Unidos.
Todos los libros de los que aqui hablamos se consiguen en formato digital o audiolibro, para aprovechar comodidad y precio.

Muy triste, muy, muy triste lo que cuenta Neige Sinno. El tipo es un seductor, la gente lo quiere, incluso después de que confesó lo quieren, algo como “un buen tipo que violó a una nena”, ese tremendo oxímoron que la empatía puede generar. O, para decirlo, mejor: “Ese buen tipo que violaba a una nena”. Porque no fue una vez, fueron siete años. No fue en una calle oscura: fue en la casa donde él vivía como el marido de la madre de Neige y el padre de sus medio hermanos. No fue “un poquito” fue penetrando, poniéndole el miembro en la boca e incluso usando zanahorias y zapallitos cuando había que hacer lugar.

Triste tigre
Audiolibro
Sinno, nacida en 1977, lo cuenta todo ahora, que es una mujer grande pero no deja espacio para creer que “ya pasó”. Aunque siguió su vida, estudió en Estados Unidos y vive en México, se casó y tiene una hija, no permite, en el texto, que nos vayamos tranquilos, con la ilusión de la víctima que superó todo y curó sus heridas. La herida estará para siempre, aunque sea en forma de cicatriz.
Otro aspecto notable es el análisis que hace de Lolita, la novela de Vladimir Nabokov publicada en 1955 que tanta controversia causó. Se trataba, justamente, de la relación entre un adulto y una chica de 12 años. ¿Relación?¿Romance? Sinno destruye cualquier interpretación en ese sentido y valora la manera en que el autor muestra la cabeza de “alguien que hace el mal de forma deliberada”.
Triste tigre es un plato fuerte, para paladares duros. Inolvidable.
Un médico argentino que reside en Nueva York encuentra una acusación de nazi pintada en la fachada de su casa y, tras el impacto, decide investigar el pasado de su abuelo, un diplomático alemán que se refugió en Mar Chiquita, Córdoba durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La búsqueda lo lleva a la Argentina, donde el silencio que rodea la figura de Marthin Müller y el encuentro con Coralina Carreño, una joven madre con un secreto, abren nuevas incógnitas familiares.

Secretos de sangre
eBook
La novela alterna entre la época de la guerra y el presente, situando parte de la trama en el Hotel Viena, donde Marthin Müller y su esposa Amalia vivieron una intensa historia de amor.

Viviana Rivero, autora de esta obra, nació en Córdoba, Argentina, y divide su residencia entre su ciudad natal y Madrid, España.

Sus libros, publicados en España y otros países de habla hispana y traducidos al italiano, han alcanzado una gran repercusión de público y crítica. Actualmente, Rivero es profesora en el máster de literatura de la Universidad Internacional de Valencia (VIU).

¿Será verdad que beber dos litros de agua cada día beneficia a tus riñones? La hormona EPO, responsable de oxigenar la sangre, se produce en los riñones. Allí también se origina la proteína klotho, relacionada con el envejecimiento y la longevidad. A pesar de su importancia, los riñones siguen siendo uno de los órganos más complejos y menos comprendidos del cuerpo.

Por mis riñones que hoy como diez veces bien

Es bastante impactante que una escritora con una mirada tan profunda sobre América latina, la colonización, el derecho a la más radical de las diferencias y el impacto de la civilización sobre la naturaleza esté en la “lista corta” de uno de los grandes premios internacionales de literatura. Pero así es. Gabriela Cabezón Cámara está viajando a Nueva York donde el 19 de noviembre se hará el anuncio.

El onceavo dorado
eBook
Mientras tanto, se puede leer, gratis, El onceavo dorado, un cuento que Cabezón Cámara publicó a través de Leamos, la editorial digital de Infobae.
Desde el barro de la villa hasta el piso once de un edificio lujoso, Ariel experimenta un ascenso marcado por la distancia de la pobreza, la violencia y el hambre. En ese entorno de privilegios, rodeado de cocaína pura, promesas de riqueza y compañía ocasional, planea escapar al extranjero.

La aparente seguridad de Ariel se ve amenazada por la traición, ya que su posición resulta ser la de un peón dentro de un sistema que manipula y destruye vidas con precisión implacable. La autora Gabriela Cabezón Cámara expone en su relato la brutalidad de un engranaje social que compra lealtades y sacrifica personas, mientras el lujo y el progreso encubren una inminente catástrofe.
