  1. Wild to say this given the last 12 days or so. Or having lived in Texas for any public employees other than police…
  2. We are in a legitimate constitutional crisis.
  3. What absolute bull shit - Also, what’s worse: the intentional constitutional overreach or that some random jack off can freeze billions in appropriated funds without authorization?
  4. Any truth to reports that non-political heads at FAA were fired today before this incident?
  5. I spoke too soon apparently, TRO granted. The judge relied on the Press Secretary’s comments to essentially rule the rescission a nullity
  6. Welcome to Calvinball - the President now is the sole arbiter of whether money appropriated by Congress will actually be spent. We’re so fucked
  7. None of that is clear at this point
  8. I think it’s also intended to screw them out of their retirement/pension benefits
  9. Media rooms should be barred from repeating Trump press releases without a basic fact-check
  10. Last time he ended with a coup- we’re seeing one now at the beginning
  11. Oh no big deal- just Trump and Project 2025 assholes usurping the power of the purse from Congress and creating a constitutional crisis. It’s Day 9
  12. Red states will still receive federal funding under this proposal. But Trump can’t undo legislation by EOs
  13. They aren’t planning on deporting them all….
  14. there is no doubt that the President now has full control over the prosecutorial discretion of the DOJ and is immune from all criminal conduct for it - just as John Roberts wanted. This is Roberts’ legacy and this is what people voted for.
  15. Trump’s America apparently proves no one cares whether foreign interests are buying influence or policy outcomes with direct bribes to the president and his family. This is something I truly don’t understand is tolerable and not the lead story every day
  16. Title VII protections still exist and extend to employers who receive federal funds, so practically this seems more ceremonial
  17. So why did he pardon the Silk Road guy? https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/01/21/trump-pardons-silk-road-ross-ulbricht-.html I thought he was saying we should kill drug traffickers- is that only for brown ones?
  18. Not happening. Just wishcasting from the right
  19. Literally the first article after googling ”The services have said they did not decrease the standards for any of the combat jobs.” https://apnews.com/article/military-women-defense-hegseth-combat-916d50a7b465ccfea1aeb13bb91064b3#
  20. This is 100% fabricated bullshit. Standards were not lowered for women in infantry
  21. What really chaps my ass are people like Mark Cuban or Kara Swisher claiming that only if Dem Senators asked different questions, then they could move just a few GOP votes. 1) no questions would result in different GOP votes and 2) how tf is this the Dems fault?
  22. She’d get her ass kicked. Funny how she folds as soon as she’s off the dais
