Donald is abusing his executive authority. Invoking powers that don't apply & freezing congressionally appropriated money that POTUS has no power to do. https://youtu.be/bhQh3hEpJhM
He knows this, the Congress knows this, however other than a small few (Crockett, AOC, Sanders, Green and a handful of others) willing to challenge Donnie and stand up to him & against him, like a bully he will do as he pleases...
Add Sen Chris Murphy who just held the Senate floor to lay out the 40 instances of open corruption, bribery, fraud, extortion & crime involving the Emoluments
Clause!
Because Trump always responds positively to the urging of others. He's famous for it. It's one of his trademark personality traits, alongside integrity and empathy.
Trump 1.0 racked up the national debt. Did Congress think he was gonna behave this time? Lord people do your damn job in Congress. You got ONE job. “Urge”? Does anyone walk up to the WH anymore and demand like Boehner did to Obama? Have a spine. Tell him you are in control. Damn
From the spending we can see, it would cause concern that the lack of transparency may be hiding a disastrously growing national debt greater than we have ever seen.
IF YOU WANT TO FIGHT TRUMP IN HIS 2ND TERM. #IMPEECH CHARGE DONALD TRUMP WITH TREASON. THAT IS HOW YOU DEAL WITH THAT. THEN WORK HIS ADMINISTRATION TREASON CHARGES. THEN WORK ON HOW TO GET THE GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES THAT PROTECTS OUR NATION BACK TI WORK. THEN WORK ON FIXING OUR TRADE AGREEMENTS
IMPEECH AND CHARGE TREASON EVERYBODY IN THE DONALD TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DOGE HAS THAT INFORMATION WHO IS WITH DONALD TRUMP A CORRUPT GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION. DOMESTIC TERRORISM FOR DOGE EMPLOYEES. ELON MUSK TREASON.
This jelly-fish Congress needs a spine transplant. They don’t have to urge tRump TO DO ANYTHING. Just order it done. They are there to make laws, not kiss ass.
It’s fucking bizzaro world we’re living in where the President shares untruths on truth social, the justice department serves injustice, the department of education promotes ignorance, and the health department increases disease by undermining prevention.
The Congress and the President work for WE THE PEOPLE. If half the country goes on strike not for a day but for an indefinite period of time only then will shit change.

well, not only that, there aren't enough democrats in the HOUSE to vote for impeachment... and even with the ones in office presently, not all have the will for the fight, sadly...
If Walmart shelves go empty right about the time of The Felon King’s $100 million birthday parade (6/14) will he cite anti-MAGA protests to invoke the Insurrection Act?
Yes they should,weren’t they the ones that ran on cutting government waste keeping track of federal spending.Absolutely this should be restored because we know federal spending is off the chart Thanks to trump his trips to FL.EVERY WEEKEND costing us a pretty penny he uses air force one marine one.😘
For an executive office that claims to be obsessed about efficiency in spending, they sure don't seem to want people to know what they're spending money on.
The total amount we spend paying all federal workers is less than 5 % of the national budget. Doge was only ever a method to get a hold of our data and end programs Republicans hate.
If they were serious about cutting spending they'd start at the Pentagon.
Last thing the current government wants is transparency, if people have enough information they can start to ask questions, which those in power don't want to answer.
Makes sense only if the GOP, the supposed party of fiscal responsibility, really cares less about what the public knows. It's all part of their plank to make us as ignorant as possible.
The idea that there are left-wing or progressive groups in “Israel”, or that they care about the human rights, is all delusional. The core of “Israel” is Zionism, and Zionism is a death cult terrorist ideology...Israelis've been burning Palestinian kids alive, and they revel in it!
Are you reporting what the felon told you to report? If so, don't you realize that congress ceded the power of the purse to Elon's purchased buffoon 45 days ago? Must of slipped your mind or was on page 15, much like you failed to report the buffoon's not sure if he supports the constitution.
Fuck "urging" the white house. Fucking ORDER it. The purse is Congress's responsibility because we the people ask them to represent us. We are the ones giving our hard earned money to them to help improve OUR lives. We don't give them money to improve the lives of the president or his Oligarchs.
I want to find out how to sue the federal government out of me paying taxes. I do not want to pay for Ashli Babbitts traitor fund, EVERY program of science, health, NOAA, Park Service all GONE. Department of education. I don’t want to pay their thieving white trash crime syndicate a DIME.
“Urging” a dictator wannabe isn’t going to do anything. Republicans can force him to stop at anytime, but they won’t. They continue to let him destroy the country. Let’s not call this “bipartisan”.
Do the checks/balances thing government folks. you were voted to represent, not flaunt the fact you could win an election. do your f-ing job for your constituents. Country over Party a-holes.
If only… that requires the GOP to form a coalition to vote out Speaker Johnson. Then bring Articles of Impeachment against the Orange Moron conman in the Oval
It could be accomplished this week if the GOP cared about America.
But they love power more
I can see the day when financial reporting is so dire that the actual value of gold in Fort Knox is no longer known allowing Trump’s men to turn up and take it all away to be made into toilets, baths and wash hand basins for one of his palaces, replaced by gold painted lead bars, it’s what I’d do.
There will be. I hate this ridiculous scare mongering. They have been losing left right and centre and somehow they won’t hold an election? The have shown nothing but incompetence.
The great thing with people delusional is that they're counting on others to fail.
Up to now, MAGA have defied any prediction from the so-called experts and have pushed their agenda up to the point they planned.
So I wouldn't dismiss any possibility up to that point.
I’m still feeling cautiously optimistic an election will happen also lots of local elections that show a blue shift in the reddest states. Plus this administration will inevitably turn on each other looking for people to throw under the bus as catastrophes unfold
Trump & Vance fired the swamp and filled it with new swamp creatures even more heinous than the prior ones. Then they turned off the lights in the swamp so nobody could see their theft.

Where is the money coming from for the concentration camps, flights to and from, the military parade etc
Taxpayers have a right to know
The power of the purse belongs to Congress, fullstop. Not the White House, Congress. It’s in Article I of the Constitution for goodness sake.
Mealy-mouthed crap like this is why the country is teetering on the brink.
almost as shorter: 'spending powers' = CONGRESSIONAL powers
grow a spine, MAGAt Reps!

one of the problems is is that trump thinks it’s all his money.
And I.. I can't just stop paying taxes because the government would fine or incarcerate me.
It's telling us that it should spend our money however it feels.
They didn't demand?
With a court order?
Why is the Democratic party relying on the executive branch to respond to their letters?
It could be accomplished this week if the GOP cared about America.
But they love power more
There are no NDA’s.
These people work for us.
We gave them their jobs.
We can fire them.
Up to now, MAGA have defied any prediction from the so-called experts and have pushed their agenda up to the point they planned.
So I wouldn't dismiss any possibility up to that point.
