I don't know what "all the people" means or who "they" are. Sounds like the very ambiguous "they" conspiracy theorists reference.

The court ruled on Monday. There was apparently some question about what they ruled on; the freeze based on one OMB memos or both OMB memo. That was apparently cleared up at some point on Tuesday.

Given the uproar, I would have thought at least one reporter would have asked about the frozen funds in yesterday's press briefing, if they were still frozen.

Here’s a pretty good summary that took three seconds to find.

Unfortunately, based on the stupidity of American voters, and what has transpired the last 3 weeks, we now are in a conservative dictatorship.

I don't expect to have a democrat as president, or a majority in the House or Senate in my lifetime again. I'm in my early 40's.

The leopards are inside the house now.

If Trump is alive in 4 years, he will 100% try to remain the president. I think the right will take him out, blame democrats, as Elon, JD and Thiel are much more useful for their techbro revolution.

This is the reality. Conservatives are your enemy now. Treat them as such. There is no negotiating. Elections in 2 years will be fully rigged, even 70% voting blue won't matter.

They want Project 2025, and we have to stop them. Don't be surprised if trans folks and anyone (legal or illegal) speaking Spanish is in an internment camp.

I wish Americans weren't so fucking stupid, but we are.

Here's to hoping hoping Elon and Trump engage in a battle of smallest dick. Might be our only hope.

I find it hard to disagree with any of these predictions.

You are either really dense or a bad troll.
 
Since Jan 20, Trumpflation has been skyrocketing in the grocery store and at the pumps - Over $0.20/gal. The Orange Menace doesn't realize that disrupting world markets with threats of tariffs, cuts to USAID, destablizing the US government and our national security slamming our allies while sucking up to Putin has consequences.

I do the grocery shopping, and businesses anticipate the Trump disaster plan, perfect for bringing disaster to the US economy. They have to raise prices to CYA.

X is not the only Child in the Oval Office.

Trump Mocked After Blaming Bad Inflation Report On Biden

One social media user noted that Trump also took credit when the stock market was up under Biden, and asked, “How does anyone take this guy seriously?”

It all seems to be coming to fruition for the Maga Republicans. If it all goes like planned, there’s a good chance the wailing, weeping and gnashing of teeth this time next year will make Shenanigan’s cussing and “shit-face” comments appear tame.

"Interviews with more than two dozen administration officials, government contractors and activists – as well as court filings in lawsuits alleging the government is failing to fulfill funding lawfully appropriated by Congress"

Congress approves an amount of money and the Executive branch/individual departments like USAID, decides who it goes to. In other words, Congress gives a blanket $5 billion to USAID and the President/USAID decides which entities receive or don't receive money, but Congress doesn't specify, in the end, which individual entities receive money. So it wasn't Congress' ridiculous idea to fund musicals in Columbia, or whatever it was.

1. The money Congress approves has to be spent though. It can’t just be withheld.

2. Once commitments are made by the agencies, they generally can’t be rescinded. Especially for political reasons.

1. Impoundment, which has been around for centuries, allows the president to refuse to spend money, right?

2. If we have a legal agreement/contract, I would agree. If not, why can't Trump legally impound money? Also, does the president have the power to stop funding, using impoundment, even if there is a contract in place?

I’d rather have musicals in Columbia (sic) than $500 million in Tesla trucks. Give me “Damn Yankees” in South Carolina any day.

I think there's a difference between not spending and changing where it is spent. For example, rather than waste $70k on musicals or a million on providing Sesame Street for Iranian children, it could be spent on something useful because Congress doesn't specify "spend xxx on musicals, spend xxx on cartoons for Iranian children", right? The specifics on how money is spent is done by the individual departments like USAID or DoD, etc.

His threats even included dining on some choice Indian Curry dishes the night before the big shits... (figured I'd throw that out there after breakfast time and before lunch... didn't want to put anyone off of their repast.)

Agree 100%. And let's not forget that it's owned by the same immigrant-turned-us-citizen shitstain who owns Foxaganda "News"/"News"corp.
