38-Year-Old Able-Bodied Man Irate After
Losing Food Stamps Under Trump
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 12/13/2025 7:47:35 AM
President Donald Trump recently cracked down on work requirements with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program by means of the “Big Beautiful Bill.” The policy drastically expanded work requirements for those who want to continue receiving food stamps. But Nelson Scott, a 38-year-old able-bodied man from Tennessee, called the changes “some bulls**t” in a viral interview last month with WZTV. Scott is “38, not disabled, doesn’t have any kids, doesn’t go to school, and doesn’t have a job,” all of which work against him with respect to eligibility, according to WZTV. He was previously receiving $292 per month to pay for groceries.

The Trump administration is moving to roll back key immigration protections, with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announcing Friday the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Ethiopia and the end of multiple family reunification parole programs affecting migrants from several Latin American and Caribbean countries.
The plans came as Federal Register filings, with the latter affecting immigrants from Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras and El Salvador.
"DHS acknowledges that aliens paroled into the United States under the FRP programs may have been able to reunite with family members in the United States. However, upon further review of the scope and impact of the FRP programs in their totality,
A massive 155-foot statue of a Hindu god is being built in North Carolina, and the project is already underway.
The world's tallest statue of "Murugan" is being planned in Moncure in Chatham County, NC, the Indian Eagle reports.
The "warrior god" will be at the center of the Carolina Murugan Temple Campus, which will be on 130 acres of residential land.
During the first phase of building, the main temple, three gopurams (entrances to a Hindu temple), and a road surrounding the campus will be completed and will cost around three to five million dollars, the outlet notes. By the project's completion,
The National Trust for Historic Preservation filed a lawsuit on Friday challenging President Donald Trump’s plans to construct a ballroom on the site of the demolished East Wing.
The trust, a congressionally chartered nonprofit, argued in a complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia that Trump and administration officials have violated, and are continuing to violate, the Administrative Procedure Act and National Environmental Policy Act by demolishing the East Wing and moving forward with construction of the ballroom.
The complaint said the administration violated the laws when it didn’t consult with the National Capital Planning Commission or the Commission of Fine Arts and failed to conduct
A Utah-based mineral production company has stumbled upon a potentially game-changing discovery of 16 different types of rare earth elements and critical minerals in the state’s Silicon Ridge area. The discovery could potentially help America lower its reliance on China for metals vital to high-tech manufacturing.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Ionic Mineral Technologies, a company focused on producing nanosilicon for lithium-ion batteries, has uncovered what could be the most significant critical mineral reserve ever discovered in the United States. The discovery, made while mining clay in Utah’s Silicon Ridge, includes high grades of 16 different rare earth minerals, ranging from lithium and alumina to

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith, failed leader of President Joe Biden’s Justice Department efforts to convict Donald Trump, is partnering with other leading figures in the lawfare against Trump to create a law firm.
Smith is joining ex-Department of Justice prosecutors Tim Heaphy, David Harbach, and Thomas Windom.
As Yahoo News reported:
The lawyers all played leading roles investigating Trump during his years out of power. Smith and two members of his team, Harbach and Windom, obtained indictments against Trump for attempting to overturn his 2020 election defeat and illegally retaining classified documents.
A former Obama-era U.S. Attorney, Heaphy was the lead investigative lawyer for the House of Representatives committee
European Christians have celebrated the birth of Jesus Christ in their town squares for roughly 400 years in what became known as "Christmas markets." They began in German-speaking regions of Central Europe and spread to Poland, Croatia, France, and beyond. Then the globalists gavaged marauding Muslims into Europe. Since then, Christmas in Europe hasn't been the same. It's been downright dangerous. Erbach, Germany, was one of the latest scenes of Yuletide destruction, which frequently occurs at the hands of Islamist freebooters who demand tolerance but can't seem to thole some back to their hosts. Sometimes the pillagers have gone so far as to decapitate the Baby Jesus.
How far did the wokeness mania inside Joe Biden’s White House go? Far enough that his former secretary of State ordered the department to shift typefaces on the basis of diversity and inclusion.
Now, Donald Trump’s secretary of State, Marco Rubio, is switching it back — and the media somehow thinks that’s the fact they should be mocking, not the fact that Biden’s people switched typefaces because of DEI. And they wonder why Donald Trump got elected in 2024. Multiple reports Tuesday confirmed that Secretary of State Rubio ordered the State Department to switch from the font Calibri — a sans-serif font — to Times New Roman, generally considered
Dallas pastor Frederick Haynes, who hailed anti-Semitic preacher Louis Farrakhan as a "great" man and lashed out at Israel in a sermon just one day after the Oct. 7 Hamas attack, is running to replace a member of his congregation in Congress: firebrand House Democrat Jasmine Crockett (Texas).
Haynes filed paperwork for Texas's 30th district on Monday, shortly after Crockett launched a campaign for Senate. "She’s the baddest sister out there," Haynes, the pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church, said at a Senate kickoff event for Crockett. Haynes is likely to have an advantage in the race thanks to his alliance with Crockett, who frequently attends Friendship-West
Democrats can now add a major city in Donald Trump’s home state — and one set to host his future presidential library — to its list of off-cycle election wins. In a Tuesday runoff, Miamians elected Eileen Higgins as mayor, the first woman in the city’s history to hold the job and the first Democrat in 28 years. Higgins, a former county commissioner, defeated Republican Emilio González, an ex-city manager who had the endorsement of Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis. Though the race and the job of mayor are nominally nonpartisan, the election generated sizable interest from national Democrats and Republicans. Higgins’ win adds to the slew of victories
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the arrest of two New Jersey men Tuesday who allegedly threatened to torture and murder assistant secretary of Homeland Security for public affairs Tricia McLaughlin.
Authorities charged Ricardo Antonio Roman-Flores and Emilio Roman-Flores over posts on social media that declared their intentions to shoot United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on sight and to hang McLaughlin, according to a Tuesday release by DHS. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons vowed that threats against officials would not be tolerated.
“Let this be a warning to anyone who dares threaten or attack our brave law enforcement officers,”
Civil war and famine spurred many Somalians to immigrate to the United States in 1991 and settle in Minnesota. That was 34 years ago. Somalians could have assimilated into U.S. culture by now, but American taxpayers have been roped into funding programs that coddle Somalians’ Third-World culture and disincentivize their assimilation.
The Somali population explosion has rendered parts of Minneapolis unrecognizable as they impose a decidedly non-American culture on every aspect of the city. Somalis are members of the police force, city council, state legislature, and even Congress, still speaking their own language in those positions and, at times, cutting English speakers out of the loop.

Rachel Maddow has a hilarious excuse for why Kamala Harris comes across as so vapid in public: she's actually sharp and incisive behind closed doors—we just don't get to see it when the cameras are rolling.
Sure, Rachel. Sure.
Maddow, now hosting on MS NOW (the rebranded MSNBC), recently appeared on the At Our Table podcast with former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. At one point during the interview, the conversation turned to Kamala and her nationwide book tour promoting 107 Days. What followed was Maddow's attempt to explain away Kamala’s consistently horrible public appearances by insisting there's a secret, superior version of the former vice president that only a select few
In hindsight, Black Lives Matter was simply a race hustling shakedown to fatten the pockets of its leadership.
BLM co-founder Patrice Cullors resigned in 2021 over accusations of misspending the group’s donations on multimillion dollar properties including a mansion in Toronto, Canada as the New York Post reported.
Cullors is now joined by another prominent name from BLM Oklahoma City, 52-year-old Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson.
The executive director of BLMOKC has been charged with wire fraud and money laundering as reported by KWTV-DT.
The United States Attorney’s office for the western district of Oklahoma put out a news release on the charges. “Beginning in late spring 2020, BLMOKC raised funds to support

President Trump Grants Tina Peters Pardon
23 replies
President Trump on Thursday granted Tina Peters a full pardon. Tina, a Gold Star Mother who is in poor health, is now serving nine years in a Colorado state prison for challenging the 2020 elections. The left wants her dead. Tina Peters has been found guilty on state charges and is serving time in a state prison, so the presidential pardon will not result in her immediate release. Last week, a magistrate judge dismissed Tina Peter’s habeas corpus petition seeking an early release from prison.
President Trump’s close friend, former schoolmate, and attorney, Peter Ticktin, recently wrote in a letter that Tina Peters has been attacked three times by other inmates.

The normally proud and defiant French are waving the white flag in the face of migrant terror.
Paris has shockingly decided to dim the lights on its annual New Year’s Eve fête along the iconic Champs-Élysées.
The massive midnight concert that drew a jubilant crowd of a million people last year — with the festivities having drawn throngs to the “most beautiful avenue in the world” for six decades — has been scrapped and replaced by a pre-recorded video to be viewed in the safety and comfort of French living rooms.
The fireworks will still illuminate the Arc de Triomphe when the clock strikes 12,

Anyone who has been anticipating an announcement from the U.S. military about potential permanent fallout for former servicemembers or intelligence agency staffers over the release of that "illegal orders" video by six now-national Democrat lawmakers could be one step closer to hearing some news. As many RedState readers know, among the lawmakers was Arizona's senior senator, Mark Kelly, and it was Kelly whom the Pentagon singled out for a review for "serious allegations of misconduct.” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ordered the Navy through a memorandum in late Nov. to take a long look into it, and submit a report with their findings/recommended actions.
I have been covering the "Paper or Plastic" game since George W. Bush was president. And it's only gotten more ridiculous. First California lawmakers banned paper bags because they "killed" trees -- the ultimate renewable resource. They replaced paper with plastic bags, which they are now banning to go back to tree-killing paper bags. Or you can carry your filthy multi-use cloth bags. (snip) The California legislature is stuck on stupid, and has been for a long time.
COCOA, Fla. - A 13-year-old boy will be tried as an adult after a grand jury indicted him on a charge of first-degree felony murder in the shooting death of a man during what prosecutors say was a botched robbery last month.
The teen, identified as Emeril Tytron Lemeul Rachel, was originally charged with manslaughter. The State Attorney’s Office said that charge "was not enough" based on evidence presented to the grand jury, which also indicted him on a charge of attempted robbery.
The backstory:
A grand jury returned the indictment against the teen, who investigators say arranged to meet 30-year-old Kelby Gavin Miller through a social media app before
The 19-year-old Israeli hostage, Noa Marciano, was murdered by a doctor in Gaza’s Shifa hospital, her father Avi Marciano disclosed in a social media post.
Noa, who Palestinian terrorists abducted from a kibbutz on October 7, 2023, was taken to Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital after sustaining minor ‘non-life-threatening’ injuries. Weeks after her abduction, and with Israeli troops advancing in the area, a Palestinian doctor “injected air into her vein,” Noa’s father said.

Barry Loudermilk, Chairman of the new House Republican-led Select Subcommittee on January 6, claims that key surveillance footage showing areas near the RNC and DNC where pipe bombs were placed the prior evening was not preserved. Republican Rep. Loudermilk (GA-11) made the jaw-dropping accusation in a recent interview.
"There's still so many questions regarding this, because one of the things that has raised our eyebrows is as we go and we look for video on January 6th, because we want early morning video on January 6th to see, did anybody go back to these locations?" he said.
