Democrats are warning that thousands of children may go hungry if Republicans don’t cave in to Democrats’ demands and agree to fund COVID-era Obamacare subsidies for wealthier Americans. Meanwhile, Republicans have filed a bill just to fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP, better known as food stamps, during the shutdown. If the impasse continues, I’d humbly suggest that private charities and policy nonprofits team up to replace the program with a privately-funded alternative that also helps recipients go from dependency to self-sufficiency. Private charities are already starting this process, but conservatives should band together to transform a private effort into a policy-shifting initiative. Charities Respond to SNAP Lapse SNAP funding will lapse on Nov. 1, leaving millions without benefits they have grown to rely on. Catholic Charities USA launched an emergency fundraising effort to supply food to Catholic Charities across the country to meet this need. Meal delivery company DoorDash launched a program to deliver one million meals for free, supporting more than 300 Project DASH food bank partners next month. DoorDash will also waive delivery and service fees for an estimated 300,000 grocery orders for SNAP recipients at various supermarkets, including Giant Foods and Wegmans. These programs will not fully replace SNAP, which cost about $100 billion in fiscal year 2024 and served an average of 41.7 million participants each month, but they represent Americans’ independent spirit of private charity stepping in the breach. My SNAP Proposal I’d suggest a coordinated effort to meet existing needs and provide a roadmap away from government dependency. This tragic government shutdown may present conservatives with an opportunity to develop a policy reform that makes SNAP more effective by incentivizing self-sufficiency. The food stamps program has long fostered dependence on government programs. Back in 2001, Heritage Foundation Senior Research Fellow Robert Rector noted that “the overwhelming majority of Food Stamp spending is received by individuals who have been or will be participants in the program for multiple years or even decades.” The program ballooned during the COVID-19 pandemic, rising as labor force participation declined. SNAP serves 4.3 million more people than it did before the pandemic. Congress can and should amend the program, strengthening work requirements and tightening eligibility, to make sure that the truly needy receive the program and to incentivize self-sufficiency. Yet, if private charities and policy nonprofits team up to meet the unmet needs during this government shutdown, they may find an unprecedented opportunity to replace a bloated federal dependency program with a smart privately-funded roadmap to self-sufficiency. Americans don’t want 41 million people to go hungry, but we also don’t want 41 million people to become perpetually dependent on the federal government for food assistance. The SNAP-merican Dream I dream of an America where every able-bodied potential worker can find fulfilling work and make enough money to not only meet personal and family needs, but have enough left over to generously contribute to meeting the needs of others, as well. Thankfully, I already live in an America where generous people contributed so that nonprofits have $4.1 trillion in revenue. This massive charitable sector should be able to address a problem like food stamps. Our goal should not be to foster dependence on government, but to foster productivity that allows for not just abundance and fulfillment, but generous giving. I’m calling on private charities—and particularly charities like Samaritan’s Purse that are motivated by the Christian gospel, as I am—to step into the breach here. I’m also calling on think tanks like The Heritage Foundation, the Reason Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute, and others to pool resources with these charities and develop a program that will meet the unmet needs of SNAP and go further than the current program already does. My dream is that SNAP disappears, not because Americans are stingy, but because America outgrows the need for it. Let’s develop a privately-funded roadmap away from government assistance and toward a more productive and generous America. Then the Schumer Shutdown won’t just be an ugly footnote in our history, but a moment where Americans proved we don’t need the dole to feed the hungry. The post Schumer Shutdown Presents an Opportunity for SNAP and America’s Spirit of Charity appeared first on The Daily Signal.

How To Tell If Someone Has a Good Marriage

Well folks, you can relax now….Bill Gates has just told us that actually there’s “no doomsday risk from Global Warming”.  Never mind all that stuff we fearmongered for decades… To steal a phrase from Glenn Beck: what a huge piece of crap this guy is! After spending decades telling us we have to totally upend our lives and totally destroy our way of Western living and totally destroy our economy because “GlobalWarmingIsGoingToKillUsAll” it turns out none of that was ever true. Of course we knew that all along and we shouted from the rooftops to stop listening to Bill Gates, Al Gore, Greta Thunberg and their ilk. But now even Bill Gates has totally flipped and said “OOPSIES, sorry guys, guess I was wrong on all that Climate Change Global Warming stuff!” Billionaire Bill Gates has dramatically changed his position on climate change, acknowledging for this first time there is no “doomsday” risk from global warming. pic.twitter.com/CtsSL4OuN5 — NEWSMAX (@NEWSMAX) October 28, 2025 Watch the actual clip here…. This is Bill Gates on CNBC: FULL TRANSCRIPT: Bill Gates: Climate is a super important problem. Um, there’s enough innovation here to avoid super bad outcomes. We won’t achieve our best goal — the 1.5 or even the 2 degrees — and as we go about trying to minimize that, we have to frame it in terms of overall human welfare, not just everything should be solely for climate. When the climate activists who have been very supportive of what you’ve done, and you’ve been very supportive of what they’ve done, read this — and if Greta Thunberg is reading this and saying to herself, “My goodness, he seems like he is reversing himself,” what would you tell her? I’d say, “Wasn’t the goal here to improve human lives?” And shouldn’t we, in our awareness of how little generosity there is to help measure — you know, should we get them a measles vaccine or should we do some climate-related activity? And if we could stop funding all vaccines and that saved you 0.1 degree, would that be a smart trade-off? That’s the kind of question we have to ask. Uh, so I’m a climate activist, but I’m also a child survival activist. If you think climate is the only problem and it’s apocalyptic, or if you think climate’s not a problem at all, my memo will make no sense to you. You’ll be like, “Oh no, it should all be climate.” Or you’ll be like, “Why are you even still talking about this climate thing? Why do you invest billions of your money into these companies?” The middle position — that climate is super important but has to be considered in terms of overall human welfare — I didn’t pick that position because it’s one everybody agrees with. It’s, I think, intellectually the right answer. Backup here if needed: As Bill Gates looks for his words, he’s known all along that climate change wasn’t an existential threat to the world.pic.twitter.com/n8XuQ9Se2j — General (@TheGeneral_0) October 29, 2025 Now I know some of you are going to say: “Noah, Bill didn’t totally flip, he still says it’s important!” And to those comments I say wise up! This is a totally about-face, total flip.  If you can’t see that, I’m sorry but you don’t have very good intuition. Bill Gates is doing a massive campaign change here, and the question is “why”. I think I know the answer, and in fact Glenn Beck knows the answer too. I thought Glenn explained it perfectly in this short video I’m about to show you, and I share Glenn’s absolute RAGE as he tries to contain himself during this segment. It’s so true, completely maddening that we were lectured by these people for decades, they brought untold economic destruction to our economy in the name of “cow farts” and “global warming” and now they’re just going to pivot away from it. Why? Because it now suits them. Because they now need the power to fuel their AI. Because they’re now living in the world of Trump and if they don’t change they will go out of business. So like magic, we get the Bill Gates 180 degree pivot. It’s sickening. Watch here: FULL TRANSCRIPT: Glenn Beck: So, we’ve witnessed an amazing change of heart and a change of mind. Uh, let me just play Bill Gates. And what he is saying is he’s getting ready for—what is it? COP 26, COP 30? I don’t know what COP we’re up to, but uh, here he is. Listen: “Climate is a super important problem. Uhhuh. Um, there’s enough innovation here to avoid super bad outcomes. Oh, we won’t achieve our best goal, uh, the 1.5 or even the two degrees. And as we go about trying to minimize that, we have to frame it in terms of overall human welfare, not just everything should be solely for climate.” I’d say, can we stop? Can we stop? Can we stop innovative thinking? Wow. That is exactly what we have been saying the whole time. You can’t make it all about the planet and nothing else. You cannot do things that will harm humankind to save the planet, and we will innovate our way out of this. Stop trying to degrowth everything. But that wasn’t Bill Gates. That wasn’t what he was saying. No, no, no. This is new for him now. All right, go ahead—next: “I’d say, wasn’t the goal here to improve human lives? And shouldn’t we, in our awareness of how little generosity there is to help measure, you know, should we get them a measles vaccine or should we do some climate-related activity? And if we stopped funding all vaccines and that saved you 0.1 degree, would that be a smart tradeoff?” You know, he’s one guy who I think has not had enough vaccines. I’d like to get him as many vaccines as he could possibly ever need. This is the narrative flipping here, okay? The man who told us the sky was falling, the sky was falling, now says, “You know, the sun might stay up after all.” I mean, I don’t know—now I mean—and if you don’t think he was the guy who was saying the sky is falling, he’s the guy who once backed spraying dust into the stratosphere, okay? He built his reputation as one of the guardians of the civilization end times. He’s now saying, “Relax. We’re going to live.” Okay? Relax. We need to focus on some other things. This is Bill Gates today. Could we rewind just a bit, because it was Bill Gates just a few years ago—uh, he was all in on the idea that climate change might end civilization. In 2021, he wrote a book, How to Avoid a Climate Disaster, and he said, “We have to get to zero emissions.” Remember? “We need a breakthrough technology in clean steel and cement and power and innovation. It’s the only way—only way—we can get to net zero.” Now he’s saying, “We’re never going to get there. Never going to get there.” No kidding. Really? But he backed at that time research into what is called solar geoengineering. And I remember talking about it at the time, going, “Can we not follow Bill Gates on this?” His idea was—we’re going to put particles or dust into the stratosphere, and it’s going to reflect sunlight so all the sunlight won’t actually hit the planet, and it will cool the planet. Now, if that doesn’t sound like a crazy idea—if that doesn’t sound like maybe something that you only do if the whole world is going to die if you don’t do it—what is? By the way, this was funded in part by the Gates Foundation. Now, fast forward to today: climate change is serious, but yeah, I mean—it’s really only going to hit the world’s poorest. Oh, only the poorest. Okay. Yeah. But it’s not going to cause humanity’s demise. I thought we only had, you know, two more years. Every two years they say we only have two more years to stop this or we’re all going to die. He says that’s a distraction. Really? Where were you? Where were you, Bill, when they were destroying careers? When they were saying “climate deniers”—which you now are, because you’re saying exactly what I have said the entire time—you’re now a climate denier! Where were you? Where were you with this point of view when “climate deniers” were told maybe we should round them up and put them in jail? No. We need a strategic pivot—invest in vaccines. You know what? No. No more. Can we please, for the love of Pete, have some common sense? Can we please keep Bill Gates away from vaccines, poverty reduction, human welfare, adaptation—rather than pouring every single dollar we have into emission targets and temperature tab hopes, because they’re not going to happen? So what changed? This is the important part of this story. Why? Why did he change all of a sudden? Now, I’ve got a couple of theories here. He himself, the Grinch, wrote, “From the standpoint of improving lives, using more energy is a good thing.” Wait, what? Using more energy is a good thing? I thought that was going to kill all of us. That’s why—that’s why you and all your cronies, all of your buddies, all the people running the banks—said you were not going to make loans for anybody who is building anything but solar power. And now you’re like, “We gotta stay away from solar power—it’s not ready.” Really? Well, “Energy is so closely correlated with economic growth.” Nope. Just pause for a second. Lord, please make me a more peaceful man. I know it’s Bill Gates, but please, soften my heart. We live in a world racing toward AI and quantum computing—which I believe Bill Gates is leading the way on. Massive data centers—which I believe he is running headlong into. Did I mention AI? Guess who his partner is? ChatGPT. Now, this is all huge infrastructure that eats all kinds of energy—fossil, renewable. If he could pull the sun down and actually put it into a little box so it could run his server farm only and we’d all freeze to death, believe me, he’d be for it. The more the digital future looms in front of us, the more it costs to sustain. Okay. So did he just suddenly—this genius of the world—did he just suddenly realize, “Hey, I’ve been wrong this whole time, and all those people I called climate deniers were right”? There’s a better way to go about this. Maybe we shouldn’t have scared every little person, every child, from a future. Maybe we shouldn’t have been teaching them, “You don’t have a future. You’re all going to die in a fiery flood.” Maybe we shouldn’t have taught our children, “There’s no reason to have children. Why bring children into a world where we’re all going to die in a fiery flood?” So now, we’re going to not save the planet—we’re going to improve human lives in a warming world. Huh? Huh? So, in other words, what you’re saying is no more massive investments that will tank the economies of the world and the West. Why? Now, call me a cynic—but he knew all of this before. The one thing that has changed, the one new piece that has just been put onto the table, is Donald Trump won. And Donald Trump is dismantling his global dream. Donald Trump is taking apart the World Economic Forum and the United Nations and all of these things that he was for. He’s got us out of all the global warming scams. So, he knows he can’t go there. And quite honestly, because he didn’t know that Donald Trump was going to win—because he most likely thought, “There’s no way America will ever do that”— his capture of the governments of the world, this global governance that was planned by the World Economic Forum and the UN and their sustainable goals with the money from Bill and Melinda Gates— because that failed and now is being dismantled, he needs another plan. Because if we could have captured it, we could have kept all of you stupid useless eaters from getting in the way of what we need to do. But now, we’ve got to keep you guys going too. So I need the energy, and I’m not going to be in with the government being able to just get all the energy and say, “Well, you little people, it doesn’t matter if you die because we’re saving the world.” He doesn’t have that luxury anymore. Now he’s got to work in the framework of a new world being designed by Donald Trump. So now—gee—“Maybe we should be more reasonable on this global warming thing.” Believe me, if Donald Trump dropped dead of a heart attack today and JD Vance came in and he was all in on global warming, I guarantee you that Bill Gates would be saying tomorrow, “You know what? I had a little aneurysm the other day. I don’t know what happened. I was talking nonsense—but they fixed it.” Those who said that we were all going to die… Those who said you need to dismiss all of the dissenting voices… Those who said all of the science is settled—this is the only way… All of those people should be gravely discredited now. You don’t get to shrug and walk away and go, “Yeah, you know what, I was wrong.” You weren’t like a Channel 7 weatherman who got on Tuesday and said, “You know what, we’re going to have some rain,” and then it was sunny and you just go, “You know what, I was wrong.” No. You don’t get that. This wasn’t “Ah, I called it the wrong way.” This was—you were spending us into oblivion. You were destroying the Western way of life. You were scaring our children. You told us we’re all going to die. And now you have the balls to just casually reverse yourself and say, “No, but you should listen to me this time.” No. We should not listen to him. We should not listen to any of these people. They have been designing a steel cage for anybody who is not in their class. No, no, no. The world changed, and so he has changed—because he’s got to navigate in this new world. The stakes are high, but well—the story is a little different now. But the role of power and money and tech and global elites—it’s still there. It’s still there. My question is: do you believe that your future should be shaped by these people or not? I think the answer is pretty clear. I mean, let me just say this to you— You wouldn’t have had to deal with Greta all these years if it wasn’t for Bill and Melinda Gates and their stupid foundation. No Greta in your life. You would have never known her. She would have gone to school. Who knows—she could have been a scientist. God help us. No, Bill. No, I don’t give you a pass. And stay the hell away from my children with your vaccines.

Vice President JD Vance and Erika Kirk headlined a Turning Point USA event at Ole Miss tonight. And, the turnout was absolutely incredible! Over 14,000 students attended the event, which is around half of the entire campus’ population. And, get this, the turnout was really double those numbers! According to TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet, 13,000 adults showed up but had to be turned away because there just wasn’t any room left for them.

Still smarting from recent revelations Smith obtained phone records for several GOP members of Congress around the time of the Jan. 6, 2021 attacks on the Capitol, Republican senators gathered Wednesday to announce the release of nearly 200 subpoenas Smith issued as part of his inquiry. Smith’s team requested communications with media companies — including conservative stalwarts Fox News and Newsmax — and correspondences with senior White House advisers — like Stephen Miller and Dan Scavino. Investigators sought information regarding fundraising and financial data for conservatives and conservative groups. Calling the Smith investigation worse than the 1970s political scandal that followed the break-in of the Democratic National Committee headquarters and ultimately toppled Richard Nixon, GOP senators at their press conference demanded accountability for the former Biden administration. “We should have Watergate style hearings on this for months,” said Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.). “If we’re ever going to root this out, we have to be serious about it, and consequences have to follow: resignations, firings, criminal prosecutions. You simply can’t in this country use the justice system to throw people in jail because they have a red jersey on or a blue jersey on.” Alex Jones also says he had his cell phone surveilled — without a warrant: Turns out Jack Smith had a copy of my cell phone without a warrant… https://t.co/jR7PUDw0CW pic.twitter.com/9T6j1QLd9H — Alex Jones (@RealAlexJones) October 29, 2025 This is insane and highly illegal, but it gets even worse.

As it turns out, a federal judge actually ordered the AT&T phone company not to tell Ted Cruz about the subpoena of his records because he might get rid of them. That judge was the notorious, left-wing rogue judge James Boasberg. Well well well… Jack Smith subpoenaed Ted Cruz’s cellphone records from AT&T.

Mark my words: there will be accountability for these partisan zealots who sought to corrupt the DOJ and judiciary to attack their enemies. pic.twitter.com/J8lkD1fvmL — Senator Ted Cruz (@SenTedCruz) October 29, 2025 The New York Post has more: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), one of the nine Republicans whose phone metadata was sought, said “Arctic Frost is Joe Biden’s Watergate.” “Merrick Garland was a fundamentally corrupt attorney general. Jack Smith was a fundamentally corrupt prosecutor. This was a political enemies list from the beginning,” he told reporters, brandishing the court order that demanded AT&T hand over his cell records to the feds. The order was signed by US District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg and barred the cell carrier from letting Cruz know about the request “for at least one year,” he said. The Texas Republican and others called for Boasberg’s impeachment in the House, with Cruz claiming the judge was “abusing his power” by asserting in the order there were “reasonable grounds to believe that such disclosure will result in destruction of or tampering with evidence, intimidation of potential witnesses and serious jeopardy to the investigation.” “We don’t know that for a fact, but I feel confident that he concluded it’s likely that Lindsey Graham would destroy evidence and Marsha Blackburn would destroy evidence, and Eric Schmitt would destroy evidence, and Chuck Grassley would destroy evidence,” Cruz went on. “If a judge signs an order reaching a factual conclusion for which there is zero evidence whatsoever, that judge is abusing his power. I am right now calling on the House of Representatives to impeach Judge Boasberg.” President Trump is taking things a step further, calling for Jack Smith and all others involved to be locked up! He posted on Truth Social: Do you agree with President Trump? Should Jack Smith be jailed?

President Trump has made it clear as the Commander in Chief he will ensure the U.S. military will be prepared for any situation under his leadership. On Wednesday night, Trump in a post on Truth Social announced he has ordered the Department of War to start testing its nuclear weapons Trump stated he had “no choice” but to make the decision after other countries such as Russia have began testing their nuclear arsenals. Fox News reported more on Trump’s recent decision to conduct monthly nuclear tests: President Donald Trump announced that he has ordered the United States to resume nuclear weapons testing “immediately,” saying he directed the Department of War to match other nations’ programs. He called the move a necessary step to maintain global parity. Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Wednesday night: “The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country. This was accomplished, including a complete update and renovation of existing weapons, during my First Term in office.” “Because of the tremendous destructive power, I HATED to do it, but had no choice! Russia is second, and China is a distant third, but will be even within 5 years,” Trump said. “Because of other countries’ testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis. That process will begin immediately.” Trump made the comments during a conversation with reporters aboard Air Force One on Monday morning, saying the U.S. is “not playing games” with Putin. “Russia said this week that they’ve tested a new missile that can go more than 8,000 miles. Is that saber-rattling for you? What is that?” a reporter asked. Read Trump’s full post below: Trump just ordered an increase in nuclear weapons testing 45 minutes before he meets with Xi Jinping. He has all the cards. pic.twitter.com/JEVGrfFzTp — johnny maga (@_johnnymaga) October 30, 2025 Trump’s announcement comes days after Russia testing one of its nuclear submarines, per BBC: Russia has tested the nuclear-powered Burevestnik cruise missile, Moscow’s top general has said. “We have launched a multi-hour flight of a nuclear-powered missile and it covered a 14,000km (8,700-mile) distance, which is not the limit,” Chief of General Staff Valery Gerasimov told President Vladimir Putin in a televised meeting. The low-flying experimental weapon, first announced in 2018, has been hailed as having a potentially unlimited range and the ability to evade missile defences. Western experts have previously cast doubt over missile’s strategic value and Russian claims of having successfully tested it. Putin said a “final successful test” of the weapon had been held in 2023, but the claim could not be independently verified. Of at least 13 known tests, only two had partial success since 2016, according to an arms control campaign group. Gen Gerasimov said the missile was in the air for 15 hours during the test on 21 October. He said the missile’s vertical and horizontal manoevreing were tested and were found to be up to specification, according to Russia’s Tass news agency. “Therefore, it demonstrated high capabilities to bypass missile and air defence systems,” Tass reported Gen Gerasimov as saying. The missile’s utility has been the subject of intense debate in military and defences circles since it was first announced in 2018. A 2021 report by the US Air Force’s National Air and Space Intelligence Center concluded: “A nuclear-powered cruise missile would give Russia a unique weapon with intercontinental range capability.”

Vice President JD Vance appears to have young conservative voters backing. On Wednesday night, Vice President JD Vance took the stage at a TPUSA Event at the University of Mississippi and was met with a standing ovation. As Vance stood behind the podium, he was met with “48” chants. In response Vance told the crowd, “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.” Watch the moment here: HOLY CRAP! The TPUSA crowd of thousands just went HAYWIRE and started chanting “48! ” at JD VANCE! CROWD: *Standing ovation* VANCE: Thank you! Please! I- CROWD MEMBER: 48!

Other conservatives, such as Megyn Kelly and Tucker Carlson, have attended other campus stops in recent weeks. Vance was a close personal friend of Charlie Kirk, the Turning Point USA founder, who was shot and killed in September during a campus event at Utah Valley University. Erika Kirk has since taken over as head of Turning Point USA. Vance later drew applause when he told the questioner his job as vice president “is not to look out for the interests of the world; it’s to look out for the people of the United States.” One student asked Vance whether President Trump had a conflict of interest in setting policy toward Israel because one of his top donors, Miriam Adelson, was a staunch advocate of pro-Israel policies. Vance said he did not see a conflict of interest, noting Adelson is open about her views. One attendee asked Vance about the issue of requiring Christianity in public schools, while another asked the vice president how he planned to extend an olive branch to Democrats to close the social and political divide in the country. Vance noted he had areas of agreement with Democrats on policy, including on breaking up corporate monopolies. At one point, those in attendance chanted “48” at Vance, a nod to a potential 2028 run to serve as the 48th president. “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, ladies and gentlemen,” Vance said.

Keep on fighting for this country in Charlie’s memory pic.twitter.com/1722SzwS0c — JD Vance (@JDVance) October 30, 2025 NBC News reported Vance shared to the crowd one of his last phone conversations with Kirk: Vice President JD Vance recalled here Wednesday an angry phone call from conservative activist Charlie Kirk in the months before his death — an example, Vance said, of his late friend’s commitment to firm but polite debate. Kirk, Vance said, was worried whether President Donald Trump’s posture in the Middle East would lead to a long and protracted military conflict involving U.S. troops. Vance, speaking to supporters of Kirk’s Turning Point USA organization at the University of Mississippi, called it a “great moment for our country” and for his friendship with Kirk, “because friendship is not just about telling everybody what they want to hear.” “It’s about having the trust in another human being that you can tell them they’re wrong and actually encourage them to change their mind or, in that case, not necessarily even tell us that we were wrong but make sure that we were thinking about all the options,” Vance added. Kirk, 31, was killed during an appearance last month at Utah Valley University. Kirk, a conservative activist who was a close ally of Vance and Trump, was known for taking his message to college campuses, energizing others on the right and relishing debate with those on the left.
