Trump uses tariff revenue to protect poor mothers and kids hurt by Democrats’ shutdown
Using the revenue of some of the tariffs that liberal critics have fought vigorously, President Donald Trump has helped vulnerable American mothers and, in the process, neutralized some of Democrats’ supposed “leverage” in what is nearly the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.
House Minority Whip Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) recently admitted that while the Democrat-induced government shutdown has been painful for families across the country, it is somehow necessary because “it is one of the few leverage times [Democrats] have.”
In their quest for leverage, Democrats have jeopardized critical food assistance and health care for the nearly seven million poor American pregnant mothers, breastfeeding mothers, infants, and at-risk children who rely on the special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children program known as WIC.
‘American families deserve certainty from their government.’
The WIC program, which received roughly $7 billion in fiscal year 2024, is federally funded through the annual appropriations process. The National WIC Association warned last month that unless additional funding was injected into the program, millions of families would lose their benefits as of Nov. 1.
“NWA is calling on the White House to make additional emergency funds available to avoid a short-term crisis for the millions of American families who count on WIC while Congress negotiates full-year funding for FY 2026,” Georgia Machell, president of the NWA, said in an Oct. 21 statement.
“WIC is a lifeline for nearly 7 million pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and young children. Even short-term disruption to WIC’s healthy food benefits, lactation support, nutrition education, screenings, and referrals can have long-term negative impacts on families,” added Machell.
On Friday, the Trump administration tapped a fund of unused Section 232 tariff revenue in order to make $450 million available for the WIC program, reported Reuters.

Federal funding records reportedly show that the money was transferred to the WIC program on Friday from the tariff revenue fund, which was made available to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for commodity disaster assistance. The USDA drew $300 million from the same fund last month to keep the WIC program liquid.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated last month, “The Trump White House will not allow impoverished mothers and their babies to go hungry because of the Democrats’ political games.”
Machell noted in the wake of the White House’s rescue of the program that “this additional funding is a welcome relief, but it is a stopgap, not a solution,” stressing the need for an end to the shutdown.
“American families deserve certainty from their government, not the constant anxiety of short-term fixes, especially when their children’s health is at stake,” said Machell.
While the administration swooped in to bolster the WIC program, it did not similarly drain its pool of tariff revenues to fully fund Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, having indicated that it lacks the authority to use emergency funds for SNAP.
Not only did the transfer temporarily deprive Democrats of the ability to use American pain as political leverage, it served as yet another point in favor of Trump’s tariffs.
House Democrats prophesied in April that Trump’s tariff policy would lead to economic collapse. Even though such calamity has yet to manifest, Senate Democrats passed resolutions last week to eliminate some of the president’s global and country-specific tariffs, namely those imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
According to an Oct. 31 report from the Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan think tank focused on tax policy, “Trump’s imposed tariffs will raise $2.4 trillion in revenue over the next decade on a conventional basis” and had raised $174 billion in revenue between January and September of this year.

The linchpin of America’s economy wants you to use it for porn
The big economic headlines about OpenAI are unlike any in history, and so is the company’s performance: Sam Altman’s behemoth is eyeing a monster IPO at up to a trillion-dollar valuation, off the strength of the unprecedented circular money pump it has built with Oracle, Microsoft, Nvidia, and AMD, the tech firms at the core of America’s all-in strategic bid for global AI dominance.
The abstruse details can make OpenAI seem to ordinary Americans like one of several titans forging our destiny in the sky. But down here on ground level, the main touchpoint in our everyday lives — ChatGPT, on track for a billion users by year’s end — is being rebuilt to extract value from billions more in the lowest of ways: pornography. In December, OpenAI will branch into erotica, allowing adults to generate sexual content through ChatGPT.
We don’t need another sermon on smut. Everyone knows what porn does to a mind, a marriage, and a man. But what does this shift mean for a company that once vowed to benefit “all of humanity”? It began with talk of productivity and progress. Now it’s about pleasure on demand. The future of work has become the future of want — degraded, automated, and alienated from true human connection.
Mass automation and mass lobotomization are two sides of the same silicon coin.
It’s easy to call it moral decline, but it’s really market design. When automation stops astonishing, appetite becomes the next asset. When machines can’t wow us with intellect, they woo us with instinct. The shift from algorithms that think to algorithms that tease goes from detour to destination. A company built to conquer productive labor, it seems, must pivot to fruitless longing.
OpenAI’s machines mastered our spreadsheets more quickly than any normal person anticipated. But the real acceleration is now aimed straight into our subconscious. The same technology that writes code can now whisper sweet nothings — or worse, learn exactly which nothings you’ll pay to hear. That debilitating kink you never knew you had is ready to become your life. Every click a confession, every prompt a prayer, the machine rapt with the attention of a priest and the greed of a pimp.
For all the talk of progress, automation has mainly made life easier for corporations than for citizens. Big business can’t really optimize for your liberation. Its ideal is lubrication: systems so smooth that people stop noticing they’re the raw material. Machines handle the manufacturing while humans are trained to consume, scroll, sigh, and occasionally remember to shower.
The human brain, once a tool of invention, is now a target for invasion. Mass automation and mass lobotomization are two sides of the same silicon coin. The first replaces our labor; the second replaces our longing. The rise of the robots is a perfect excuse for the humans to retreat — first from work, then from will, and finally from wonder. When every craving can be coded, curiosity becomes a casualty.

In doubt? Look around. Men who once built bridges now build playlists. Women who once raised children now raise engagement metrics. The world hums with productivity, yet feels profoundly empty. This is what happens when an economy stops serving people and starts sculpting them.
AI was supposed to free humanity from drudgery. Instead, it’s freeing humanity from … humanity. OpenAI’s move into digital desire is only the latest proof. What began as an effort to improve efficiency has morphed into an enterprise to perfect escape. A machine that can mimic love makes us forget what humanity feels like. And once that happens, we’re ready to surrender our very existence to the machines.
Of course, the pitch will sound noble: connection, expression, inclusivity, all the buzzwords that sell bondage as belonging. The same pitches that sold social media will sell the new and “improved” synthetic intimacy. Beneath this sweet talk sits a steel trap. If you can automate labor, you can monetize loneliness. If you can predict consumption, you can prescribe desire. The human heart, the real core of who we are, becomes just another input field, our smut of choice the last echo of our identity.
How long can it last? In this brave new marketplace, pleasure is both a product and a punishment. It numbs the pain it creates.
Sure, it’s tempting to laugh it off — what’s a little digital flirtation among consenting adults? But this isn’t really about sex. It’s about surrendering real, embodied intimacy for a shadow. The more we hand our inner lives to machines, the less we remember how to live without them.
A new AI economy built on reducing us all to skin suits will not build monuments or miracles, but mirrors — endless, glowing screens that feed our urges until we forget what restraint ever was. It’s extinction by pacification: the calm convergence of technology and tranquilization.
Ten years from now, the American workforce may be remembered, not relied upon. Its labor automated, its pride outsourced, its purpose repackaged as “upskilling.” Politicians will preach “resilience,” corporations will promise “retraining,” and millions will sit through their days bone-idle, with nothing to do and nowhere to go. They’ll be told the future is full of “opportunity,” yet find themselves waiting for a purpose that never arrives. I might be wrong — I hope I am — but every sign points one way: toward a nation drifting into digital dependency, where the only thing still working is one big machine.
In his prophetic book “Amusing Ourselves to Death,” Neil Postman warned that societies don’t collapse under tyranny but triviality. AI offers malevolent opportunists the chance to make that death spiral a business model. It can memorize your wants, mimic your worries, and leverage them all in a blink. OpenAI’s porn pivot is the hook, line, and sinker of this new economy of control: desire the lure, data the hook, the soul the catch. As Adam and Eve remind us, what begins as curiosity ends in captivity.
And this is why all Americans should care, whether or not they understand AI. Because AI doesn’t need permission to know you. It already does — your habits, your hungers, your hesitations. And in the hands of power, that knowledge becomes possession.
‘Operation MRE’: Meals, reform, enforcement
As the government shutdown drags on, media pundits warn about a looming “food insecurity crisis.” That’s liberal shorthand for hunger — and if government numbers are correct, some 42 million Americans are supposedly about to go hungry.
Wait a second. That means 1 in 7 Americans relies on food stamps — or, as Washington now calls it, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
If a family of illegal aliens shows up, feed them an MRE, then put them on a bus to the nearest deportation flight.
Try this simple test: Look around and count the next seven people you see. Does anyone resemble a refugee from a third-world famine? If so, check his green card. If not, hand him one of Kristi Noem’s “get home free” cards and move along.
Among those 42 million, a fair question arises: How many are genuinely hungry — and how many haven’t missed a free government meal in years, maybe decades?
Here’s a modest proposal. The government shutdown could serve an unexpected purpose — sorting the truly needy from the habitual scammers.
Once the electronic benefit transfer cards run dry, the president should declare a national emergency and order the military to help distribute food directly to Americans in need. Set up relief stations at National Guard armories and military bases in every state.
At each station, ask for a valid government-issued ID and the now-worthless EBT card. Record both, take a quick photo, and hand each applicant a copy of the U.S. dietary guidelines. Then provide meals ready to eat — MREs — from existing military stores. Ask recipients to return the next day for actual groceries, in quantities matching the recommended dietary plan.

That’s how you end food insecurity overnight — while also eliminating “waste, fraud, and abuse.” It’s a win-win!
While they’re there, run basic checks for outstanding warrants, duplicate or fake IDs, and phony EBT cards. In this way, every needy American gets fed, and every scammer gets flagged.
If a family of illegal aliens shows up, feed them an MRE, then put them on a bus to the nearest deportation flight.
If the system works, maybe it’s time to replace the SNAP credit-card model entirely. Instead of government-issued plastic that funds junk food and fraud, Americans in need would receive actual food — efficiently and fairly.
The result? Less waste, lower costs, and fewer excuses for corruption disguised as compassion.
And if this plan exposes just how dependent Democrats have become on managing poverty rather than solving it, so much the better. Once it’s clear that the Bad Orange Man can feed Americans and deport freeloaders in a single stroke, watch how fast Chuck Schumer and company rush to vote for that continuing resolution.
SNAP dependence makes taxpayers a personal grocery fund
While over 40 million Americans rely on SNAP benefits to buy their groceries, the government shutdown has left them empty-handed — and BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey doesn’t think it’s a bad thing.
Especially considering the money that comes from the government does not actually come from the government, but from the millions of taxpayers who go to work every single day.
In one CBS interview, a SNAP recipient named Erin Annis told the interviewer that she needs SNAP in order to live independently, without requiring the assistance of her family.
“Having those resources, what does it mean to you and for your life?” the CBS interviewer asks.
“Everything. It means everything to me. I don’t know what I would do except have to rely on my family, and I don’t want to do that right now. There’ll be a time when I’ll probably have to live with one of my sons. But for now, I want to be independent; I want to be on my own,” Annis answers.
“Having these resources has allowed you to be independent?” the interviewer asks.
“Yes, it’s allowing me to be independent,” Annis answers.
“It’s like people forget where this money comes from. You’re not actually independent. You are completely dependent on the government. And it’s not on the government. I mean, the government doesn’t have its own money. The government has money from us,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey says.
“And so you have people who are willing to sacrifice, who are trying to make ends meet, who are trying to provide for their families themselves who are paying for this woman to live quote-unquote ‘independently,’ to buy her groceries,” she continues.
“Our tax dollars are taken away from us in a compulsory way, like we have to — we will go to jail if we don’t pay our taxes. So the government is forcing the money that we earned out of our hands and is forcibly giving it to someone else who could rely on family to buy her groceries,” she explains.
“That’s not ethical. That’s not moral,” she adds.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney dies at 84
Dick Cheney, the former vice president under President George W. Bush, has died at the age of 84.
‘The death of Richard B. Cheney is a loss to the nation and a sorrow to his friends.’
Cheney passed away from complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease, according to a statement issued by his family on Tuesday.
“Dick Cheney was a great and good man who taught his children and grandchildren to love our country, and to live lives of courage, honor, love, kindness, and fly fishing,” his family stated. “We are grateful beyond measure for all Dick Cheney did for our country. And we are blessed beyond measure to have loved and been loved by this noble giant of a man.”
Cheney, who was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, in 1941, had a history of heart problems, including five heart attacks, with the first one at 37 years old. He received a heart transplant in 2012.
Bush issued a statement about his former vice president’s recent passing.

“The death of Richard B. Cheney is a loss to the nation and a sorrow to his friends. Laura and I will remember Dick Cheney for the decent, honorable man that he was. History will remember him as among the finest public servants of his generation – a patriot who brought integrity, high intelligence, and seriousness of purpose to every position he held,” Bush wrote.

Cheney, a Republican, has been a strong critic of President Donald Trump. He warned in a 2022 campaign video for his daughter then-Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) that no one has been a “greater threat to our republic” than Trump. He voted for Trump’s opponent, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, this past election.

Kim Kardashian claims moon landing was ‘FAKE’
Kim Kardashian has been spotted adjusting her tinfoil hat on one of the latest episodes of “The Kardashians” while telling her co-star Sarah Paulson that she thought the moon landing “didn’t happen.”
In the episode, Kardashian shows Paulson an interview with astronaut Buzz Aldrin — who took the first steps on the lunar surface during the Apollo 11 mission alongside Neil Armstrong.
“I’m sending you a million articles with both Buzz Aldrin and the other one,” Kardashian says, before reading a quote allegedly from Aldrin.
In the clip, Kardashian explains the clip of Buzz Aldrin speaking to a young girl.
“This girl says, ‘What was the scariest moment?’ And he goes, ‘There was no scary moment, ’cause it didn’t happen. It could’ve been scary, but it wasn’t, because it didn’t happen,’” she explained, as Paulson’s jaw dropped in amazement.
In another clip, Kardashian is asked, “For the record, you don’t think we walked on the moon?”
“I don’t think we did. I think it was fake,” Kardashian responds.
BlazeTV host Pat Gray isn’t sure Kardashian is an authority whose opinion should be given weight — especially on this particular conspiracy.
“This is where I turn for all wisdom in life, is to Kim Kardashian,” Gray says on “Pat Gray Unleashed.”
“’Cause she’s really, really intelligent,” he adds.

Teacher sentenced to nearly two centuries in prison for child sex abuse conviction
A former Arizona teacher was sentenced to almost two centuries in prison for having sex with numerous underage students while he taught at the Arizona Agribusiness and Equine Center public charter school in Mesa.
Cory Kapahulehua, 44, was convicted on 17 charges related to the accusations made against him by two students who said he had sex with them, according to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
‘I’m proud of these girls for having the courage to come forward and stop him from victimizing any children ever again.’
“Both victims, a 14-year-old girl and [a] 17-year-old girl, met Kapahulehua in August 2021 while he was teaching at Arizona Agribusiness and Equine Center, Mesa campus,” the office said.
The younger victim said that she had sex with Kapahulehua on school grounds until she reported him and he lost his job in Jan. 2022. Then they had sex at a hotel near the school and also at a parking complex.
The older victim testified that Kapahulehua brought her to his apartment, where they had sex when she was underage.
“At one point, the defendant started an online fundraiser to help move her out of her parent’s home at age 17. They eventually moved in together after she turned 18,” the prosecutors wrote.

Kapahulehua was convicted on seven counts of sexual conduct with a minor, one count of child molestation, two counts of sexual abuse, and one count of aggravated assault, among other charges.
He was sentenced to serve the sentences consecutively, which added up to 187 years in prison.
“This defendant used his position as a teacher to groom these students and take advantage of their trust,” Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell said. “I’m proud of these girls for having the courage to come forward and stop him from victimizing any children ever again.”

The triumph — for now — of New York’s Muslim socialist mayor
If the polls are right, New York City is about to elect Zohran Mamdani as its next mayor. An avowed socialist, he’s riding a wave of “free stuff” politics to victory. Mamdani also describes himself as a proud Muslim who says his faith will no longer “hide in the shadows” of American life.
It’s hard to know what he means. Mosques exist in every major city. Muslims worship freely under the same First Amendment protections as everyone else. What Mamdani seems to want isn’t tolerance but cultural submission — not coexistence, but acceptance. To dissent from his worldview, he insists, is “Islamophobia.”
The choice remains what it has always been: guilt or grace, grievance or truth.
That accusation follows the left’s familiar playbook: disagreement equals bigotry. Americans, however, don’t need to fear Islam to reject its false claims about reality.
The politics of pity
Recently, Mamdani told a story — sometimes about an aunt, sometimes about a cousin — who supposedly stopped riding the subway after 9/11 out of fear. The details change, but the purpose doesn’t: to draw sympathy and votes through emotional appeal.
We’re meant to respond, “How cruel Americans are!” The fact that this narrative works says something profound about the collapse of moral imagination among American voters.
“Never forget,” New York once vowed. Now the city seems to say, “We forgot — remind us again, and where’s our free handout?”
After a terrorist attack that killed more than 3,000 people — planned and carried out by Islamic extremists targeting symbols of American capitalism — one might expect some soul-searching. Shame could have led to repentance, reflection, or even conversion. Instead, Mamdani invites Americans to feel guilty for making a Muslim feel uncomfortable after 9/11. The villain becomes America itself.
This is textbook DARVO — deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender. It’s the same intersectional ideology that now dominates universities and city halls. Mamdani’s campaign is its political expression: Islam as the newest “oppressed” identity, ready to claim power in the name of liberation from “whiteness.”
Selective shame
Christians, by contrast, are told to feel shame constantly. From kindergarten to college, they are lectured about crusades, inquisitions, and colonialism — most of them centuries past, all of them endlessly exaggerated. Professors call it “deconstruction.” The goal is to make young Christians feel guilty enough to abandon their faith.
So shame is permitted and even celebrated — but only when it weakens Christianity. The moment it might challenge Islam, it becomes taboo.
Why? Because the modern left keeps a hierarchy of sacred victims. In that moral pecking order, Islam isn’t a religion but a protected identity, immune from criticism. That’s why progressives can champion Islam while rejecting Christianity, even though no Islamic society on earth practices the liberal values the left claims to cherish.
The contradiction is glaring, but ideology blinds them. The left despises both Christianity and capitalism, so a Muslim socialist like Mamdani suits prgressive purposes perfectly.
Rival gods, rival visions
Religion isn’t like ice cream. You can enjoy multiple flavors of dessert, but not multiple visions of truth or multiple gods. Religions offer rival accounts of reality: who God is, what man is, and what the good life requires.
Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God whose atoning sacrifice restores sinners to communion with their Creator. Islam denies that. It teaches that Jesus was only a prophet and that salvation comes through works — keeping the Five Pillars — without assurance of grace.
In the Gospel of John, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Islam’s Quran insists that Jesus was merely a messenger. Yet Islam also claims that the Quran itself is eternal and uncreated — the word of God manifested in a book, not a person. Christians believe the Word became flesh. Muslims revere a text instead.
Even the Quran, in 5:68, tells Muslims to uphold the Torah and the gospel. But those very texts affirm Christ’s divinity and the atonement — the truths Islam rejects. This “Islamic dilemma” reveals the irreconcilable divide between the two faiths.
A society built on Islam will not resemble one shaped by Christianity. The two produce fundamentally different understandings of law, grace, family, and freedom — and therefore of government itself. Mamdani has already made clear that his Islamic convictions will shape how he governs.

The only cure for confusion
In “Healing the Open Wounds of Islam,” Vishal Mangalwadi reminds readers that it was Christianity — not secular philosophy — that transformed Europe from barbarism to liberty. Only the Bible’s message of redemption through Christ can do the same today.
This is a moment for American Christians to recover moral clarity and preach the gospel boldly to Muslim neighbors. Only biblical truth, not multicultural sentimentality, can sustain freedom.
So let’s return to Mamdani’s changing subway story — the aunt, or cousin, or whoever she was supposed to be. Shame can serve a noble purpose when it leads to repentance. After 9/11, the right response to evil wasn’t self-pity but the words of Christ:
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
The choice remains what it has always been: guilt or grace, grievance or truth.
Never forget which one leads to freedom.
Trump endorses Cuomo and threatens to pull federal funding to NYC if Mamdani wins
President Donald Trump said Monday that he was endorsing the disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo the day before the mayoral election in New York City.
The president said in the post on Truth Social that it was imperative for voters to support Cuomo even if they didn’t like him in order to avoid the imposition of extremist policies under Zohran Mamdani.
‘I would much rather see a Democrat, who has had a Record of Success, WIN, than a Communist with no experience and a Record of COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAILURE.’
“Whether you personally like Andrew Cuomo or not, you really have no choice. You must vote for him, and hope he does a fantastic job. He is capable of it, Mamdani is not!” Trump wrote.
He went on to warn that federal funds would be limited to New York City if Mamdani won.
“If Communist Candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the Election for Mayor of New York City, it is highly unlikely that I will be contributing Federal Funds, other than the very minimum as required, to my beloved first home, because of the fact that, as a Communist, this once great City has ZERO chance of success, or even survival!” he wrote.
Mamdani is ahead in the polling, and Cuomo’s only hope is for Curtis Sliwa to drop out and try to capture as many of his supporters as possible. The president warned that Mamdani’s policies would decimate the city.
“His principles have been tested for over a thousand years, and never once have they been successful,” Trump added. “I would much rather see a Democrat, who has had a Record of Success, WIN, than a Communist with no experience and a Record of COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAILURE.”
RELATED: Cuomo campaign walks back ‘criminals’ AI ad against Mamdani — but it’s going viral on social media
Zohran has gained popularity for promising to battle high rents and the cost of living in New York City by taxing the rich more and expanding rent controls. Critics have argued that the socialist policies would lead to more turmoil, not less.
Cuomo has clobbered Mamdani over his inexperience in their debates but has not yet been able to make up the gap in more recent polling.
