So, if SCOTUS revokes the tariffs, then it will be the court that defunds SNAP and WIC.
That seems unlikely. The Court's moving fast on this and will probably issue their ruling more quickly than they typically do. But I don't think anyone expects them to get an opinion out before Thanksgiving. It's hard to imagine that the shutdown will run that long.
If it did SCOTUS can control the timing of their release, if they care at all about this. They could just hold it back a couple of weeks. Heck, they can hold it as long as June 2026 if they so choose. I'm quite confident they'd choose to do that, rather than issue an opinion that they didn't want to just because of the funding issues.
