How well would it work if a regular pleb just said they'll do half of what the court ordered?

And then said "I'll do that half when I get around to it, because fuck you, that's why." ie. "Significant delays" of snap benefits they are half funding.

I also really hope people don't take the obvious race bait of this, why are they saying they're only funding half? Because they went people fighting over who gets it, and how are people going to start blaming each other? Oh right, color of skin.

"Why did the brown person in the line in front of me at the grocery store get snap benefits and I didn't!!!!"

The opposite would probably be worse, honestly.

But these aren’t regular plebs. They’re the slave owners. We must punished for our insolence.

Let's not insult Thanos like that, both his comic and movie versions were actually physically intimidating and fit.

We paid for it. The taxpayers fucking paid for his fucking ball room, while people in need actively starve.

People are wrongly blaming either the democrats or republicans for the shutdown when we all know its the federalist parties fault.
