**Repost of Days of importance.**
**Passed** – November 3rd: We find out if the Trump Administration will ignore Judge rulings demanding they use contingency money that was set aside to fund SNAP. Historically SNAP has always been funded during shutdowns(it’s why it’s part of the contingency funds). This is the first time in history, that a sitting president is trying to bar funds from contingency funds from funding SNAP.
Answer: The Trump Administration has chosen to try to fight these Judge rulings, in the mean time there are doing the absolute bare minimum to fund SNAP; thus technically complying with the rulings.
**======**
**Today** – November 5th: Will become the point where the shutdown breaks the record for longest running shutdown. Many are hoping/predicting that the shutdown comes to an end at this point as it allows the political circus to have their bumper sticker of “Well this side caused the longest shutdown ever”.
Additional note: After a disastrous election day results for the GOP(Republicans losing every election in every state, additionally losing on almost every republican proposal as well.), Trump has now made his third demand to senate Republicans to get rid of the filibuster and ram the budget vote through without the need of democratic support.
** To those who don’t know the filibuster requires 60 of the 100 senate members in order for measures to pass; and is a tool widely used by both parties to suppress opposing administrations. Getting rid of it is called the nuclear option as doing such would cause considerable PR damage.
**5 Days** – November 10th: This will be the official start of the second week of November. It is estimated that at this point an overwhelming majority of people who were trying to survive off from saving will officially start to run out of savings. At this point people will be entirely reliant on charity and extreme measures. This is the point at which things start to get real bad.
**12 Days** – November 17th: The start of the third week of November. If by some freak chance the shutdown last this long; which is hopefully very unlikely, it is at this point that many predict civil unrest & riots will begin to take place. This is the part of the story where we begin the conspiratorial & darker timeline where the President & GOP are purposely trying to instigate a violent reaction from the population so that they can enact the insurrection act and essentially declare martial law.
