📜 Is It Illegal to Cut Off SNAP or Medicaid in the U.S.?

Yes — in many cases, it’s unconstitutional and unlawful. Here's why:

⚖️ 1. Constitutional Protection: Due Process

Under the 5th and 14th Amendments, the government cannot take away your property (including benefits) without due process.

✅ Supreme Court Case: Goldberg v. Kelly (1970) — Welfare (like SNAP or Medicaid) cannot be stopped without:

Advance written notice

A fair hearing

A chance to defend yourself

🛑 If a state or federal agency ends your benefits without a hearing, it's unconstitutional.

📘 2. Federal Law Says It’s Illegal to Cut You Off Arbitrarily

🥣 SNAP (Food Stamps)

7 CFR § 273.13: Requires 10-day advance notice before reducing or ending benefits.

7 USC § 2020: Requires states to give you a chance to appeal.

🏥 Medicaid

42 USC § 1396a: States must follow federal rules or lose Medicaid funding.

42 CFR § 431.205: Requires notice and a fair hearing before termination.

🛡️ 3. Equal Protection Clause

The 14th Amendment forbids discrimination based on race, gender, or class. 🛑 If benefits are cut only for certain groups, it's a civil rights violation.

🔨 4. Penalties for Lawmakers or Presidents Who Violate This

🔹 Executive Branch

If the President orders illegal termination of benefits:

Violates the Administrative Procedure Act

Can be sued in federal court

May face injunctions or contempt of court

👩‍⚖️ Example: Courts blocked parts of the Trump administration’s attempt to add work requirements to SNAP because they were “arbitrary and capricious.”

🔹 Congress or State Lawmakers

If lawmakers:

Pass laws violating due process or federal standards

Discriminate in who gets aid

Cut off benefits without cause

They may:

Face civil lawsuits

Be subject to Department of Justice investigations

Be sued personally in some civil rights cases (under 42 U.S. Code § 1983)

⚠️ Cutting Off Benefits Without Cause Is Not Just Wrong — It's Illegal

🔥 You have rights. And the courts have backed them up.

If your benefits are terminated without:

Notice

A hearing

A legal reason

📞 You can fight it.

✊ Know Your Rights

🧠 SNAP and Medicaid are not "handouts" — they’re legal entitlements. 🛑 The government cannot remove them without following the law. 📚 Cutting people off without due process = unconstitutional.

#Repost @bergenlikesballistics with @repostsaveapp ・・・ Today I went for a little extra protection inside my tactical leggings and added the @greymansolutions beltless IWB holster with the fabriclip 🔥🔥 I just tucked the fabriclip in for this setup since the leggings are trigger guarded with polymer.

Regrann from @freedom_faction - While #Americans watched the 2018 #Olympics and #mainstreammedia put on scripted town hall meetings to demonize law-abiding citizens who own guns, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in #Richmond, #Virginia handed down a blow to the #SecondAmendment. In a 10-4 ruling, the federal court ruled that the state of Maryland’s ban on 45 different “assault” weapons and its 10-round limit for magazines was not a violation of the citizens’ #constitutionalrights. The ruling was not without harsh dissent, however. “Put simply, we have no power to extend Second Amendment protections to weapons of war,” Judge Robert King wrote for the court, adding that the Supreme Court’s decision in District of Columbia v. Heller explicitly excluded such coverage, according to NBC. “It’s unthinkable that these weapons of war, weapons that caused the carnage in #Newtown and in other communities across the country, would be protected by the Second Amendment,” Maryland Attorney General Brian Frosh, who spearheaded the movement, said. “It’s a very strong opinion, and it has national significance, both because it’s en-banc and for the strength of its decision,” Frosh said. As NBC reports, however, Judge William Traxler issued a dissent. By concluding the Second Amendment doesn’t even apply, Traxler wrote, the majority “has gone to greater lengths than any other court to eviscerate the constitutionally guaranteed right to keep and bear arms.” He also wrote that the court did not apply a strict enough review on the constitutionality of the law. “For a law-abiding citizen who, for whatever reason, chooses to protect his home with a semi-automatic rifle instead of a semi-automatic handgun, Maryland’s law clearly imposes a significant burden on the exercise of the right to arm oneself at home, and it should at least be subject to strict scrutiny review before it is allowed to stand,” Traxler wrote. Elizabeth Banach, executive director of Marylanders to Prevent Gun Violence, says this ruling is “overwhelming proof that reasonable measures to prevent gun violence are constitutional,” adding that it doesn’t go far enough. 🖐🏾More in comments👇🏾 - #regrann

Jury Nullification and the Perception of Unjust Law

Introduction

Jury nullification occurs when a jury delivers a verdict of “Not Guilty” even though the evidence presented in court proves that the defendant violated the law. In these situations, the jurors believe that convicting the defendant would be unjust because the law itself is unfair, the punishment is excessive, or the law is being applied improperly. Jury nullification sits at the intersection of law and conscience, reflecting both the authority of the people in the justice system and the tensions that arise when moral judgment conflicts with legal obligation.
