Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

BREAKING: Look at this.

A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.

30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.

Market dumped.

The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours.

Unusual.

Problem for Trump is that he destroys the cases that most will be dismissed within a month...

DHS default is to lie about every encounter. Which is why they’re trying to criminalize recording them.

CHICAGO (WGN) - A WGN creative services department employee was detained by two
Border Patrol officers and later released after federal agents swarmed a busy intersection on Chicago's North Side Friday morning, at the height of rush hour.
WGN is not naming the employee, as station policy requires blurring faces and not identifying those who have not been charged with a crime.
Witnesses on site who captured the incident on video spoke to WGN about the moments leading up to the staffer's detainment.

Thomas added that when he made his way down to the scene, around 8:30 Friday morning, he realized there was another person already detained inside the minivan being used by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
"I didn't get his name, although I asked for his name," Thomas said. "He didn't speak very good English. They claimed that the WGN employee was obstructing justice, even though she was, like all of us, just standing there, taking video.'

Every single time the Democrats give a robust economy to the Republicans, Rs find away to fuck everything up..😡

Dan @danp2078r.bsky.social · 1d

Seems like a Nation wide class action lawsuit by Democratic voters because its just not firing Federal employees but also retaliatory acts towards them, especially punishing Blue States. Its hurting us economically, physically , emotional stress

Apparently this peace plan was forged by the Biden administration. Netanyahu wanted a change in administration before signing on. So, as usual, Trump picked it up and called it his. Not saying he did nothing…but the hard work drafting it…was under Biden/Blinken.

Trump in 2017: “Qatar has been a funder of terrorism at a very high level.”

Trump administration in 2025: We are building a Qatari Air Force facility in the United States.

So I guess for MAGA when a Chinese balloon goes over US airspace it’s a week straight of apoplectic comments that WW3 is starting because Biden is weak, but when Trump allows the Qataris to have an airbase in the US and fly fighter jets over our country that is America First.
