Stephen Miller's cousin, Alisa Kasmer, has publicly disowned him in a resurfaced emotional Facebook post in which she condemned his role as the architect of the Trump administration's hardline immigration policies. Kasmer, Miller's cousin on his father's side, recalled their childhood together, describing him as an "awkward, funny, needy middle child who loved to chase attention" but was "always the sweetest with the littlest family members."

In the spring, the Trump administration abruptly cut $500 million in deliveries from a program that sends U.S.-produced meat, dairy, eggs and produce to food banks and other organizations across the country " about a quarter of the funding the program received in 2024. The items that were delivered through The Emergency Food Assistance Program were some of the healthiest, most expensive items that organizations distribute.

Food insecurity is higher than at any time since the aftermath of the Great Recession, according to federal data, and many food banks are reporting higher need than they saw at the peak of the pandemic. Demand is only expected to increase; this summer, President Donald Trump signed into law the largest cut to food stamps in the program's history.
