    Uh, yeah. The “confusion” was that a federal judge had already told them they had to use the contingency fund to continue benefits. You know, the ones that tens of millions of vulnerable Americans depend on?? These are approved and funded benefits; people need to eat!!! But I guess Republicans think they don’t have to listen to that. It’s food, not a bargaining chip to force Democrats into accepting skyrocketing healthcare costs so this administration can give billionaires even more…
