Bottom line:
This isn’t budget policy, it’s a power grab. It strips judges of their ability to enforce the law and gives government officials a green light to ignore court orders. It’s authoritarian by design and it’s buried in the fine print.

Let's be clear about what happened today: Donald Trump tried to cut a giant chunk of government funding — hurting preschoolers, seniors, and veterans.
Trump's illegal shutdown is blocked for now — but don't forget that he tried to cut programs supporting working families.

Expertise is important when it comes to making decisions based on facts and science, whether it's about health or the environment. Discrediting expertise is part of a dangerous far-right strategy that is part of the "choose your own adventure" Trumpy version of reality.

There's value to imagining some things from other points of view, or trying to understand those other views, but deciding that deregulation is nifty and maybe the judges who've proven to be bad will be good is tying a bow on the bomb.
