1 - the exec branch can't decline to spend $ Congress appropriated

2- the fed govt can't use federal $ to extort states over policy/political disagreements

3-the fed govt can't use federal $ to impose conditions unrelated to the funding program

4-the fed govt can't use federal $ to coerce states
Sean Duffy on blue states: "What I can do is I can pull their money. That's the leverage I do have ... I guarantee you that the federal taxpayer is not going to fund their roads and bridges and their systems when they are putting illegals on the roads."

It’s the year 2025 and Americans have to watch a bootlegged international version of a news program because it was censored here in our country to protect a criminal president.

Sadly I’m sorry for those people who are suffering with unaffordable groceries, heating, electricity and healthcare.

Trump lied to you.
They all lied to you.
This is the result.
And it’s going to get worse.

At least you can call Gulf of Mexico, Gulf of America.

No wonder the resident Trump propagandist at CBS didn't want us to see this. It is horrific and shows how deeply lawless and depraved the Trump/Miller administration is.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

All eligible voters had a responsibility to prevent this from happening. We wouldn’t be here today if a majority of voters had done their duty and simply cast a ballot to protect their fellow citizens. If you didn’t do that, this is on you.

The cult is big & it’s vicious. There is no way out of this but to defeat it in ‘26 & ‘28, the larger the margin the better. Its hard core is around 33% of the electorate. The cult leader won’t be on the ballot either time, which will help.

We can do this.

Every word of this.

Thank you, @balint.house.gov.
The President has shown us once again that he has no empathy nor humanity. Just unapologetic, relentless cruelty.

May Rob and Michele Reiner rest in peace.

This #CupOfJoe served by @balint.house.gov speaks for us all.

Let’s face it. That people chose a man with no morals, ethics, values or decency over a highly qualified woman (twice) is what destroyed the White House.

We could rebuild the East Wing, the Rose Garden and purge all his gaudy ornaments…but the stench of Donald Trump will persist for generations.

This is disgusting and inexcusable from anybody. Anybody. Disgusting. But from the * cough * President (sic) absolutely as low as one can get. He’s sick. Where is fucking Congress to get rid of this demented narcissistic son of a bitch?

Democrats support gun control. Republicans do not. Voters you have the power to save your children’s lives.
This administration does not care about our children’s safety.
We need to stop electing people who do nothing to protect their constituents.
You don’t have a 2nd Amendment if you are killed in a mass shooting.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

Horrific mass shooting at Brown. Thinking of the victims and their families.

We simply do not have to live this way.

The failure to pass gun safety legislation is a moral stain & innocent Americans pay the price time and again.

I extend my deepest condolences to the students whose lives were lost and those injured at Brown University. Nobody should have to risk their life for an education. Inaction is not an option. We must act now to end gun violence. #BrownUniversity #EndGunViolence

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).
