@pbsnews: Brooks and Capehart on the pressure to end the government shutdown New York Times columnist David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart of MSNBC join William Brangham to discuss the week in politics, including the government shutdown barreling toward the date when funding begins to lapse on some government benefits, President Trump suggests sending federal troops to more cities and next week's key off-year elections. #pbsnewshour #newshour #pbsnews #brooksandcapehart #politicalanalysis #trumpadministration #politics
SNAP has a large contingency fund that is fully financed and, by law, exists specifically for situations like this. Yet Trump chose to block its use, defying both the intent and letter of the legislation. The result is entirely preventable hunger, driven not by necessity, but by Trump’s decision to use hunger for political leverage. Trump is inept. If he stopped spinning lies, he’d be out of office in a week.

I understand you need "the other" vantage point but this is SO odd. But I guess that's the point NOW after 30 days, the billionaire class representative gets what "us peaseants" are being uppity about...😳; and is still not totally sold on what WILL happen bc you will not be ALLOWED to act otherwisre.

David Brooks idea that we need to defend democracy and put the military on the streets is totally clueless. Why is he still here?

How is it possible that there are funds for everything else but not to feed our own people? Please, wake up — this isn’t right, and it’s definitely not making America great again 😵💫🤯
