Trump rescinded the freeze on grants and loans following public outcry and a lawsuit by non profit groups. WE STILL HAVE POWER. - ThreadSky

He did not rescind the freeze. He rescinded the memo about the freeze. They are no longer putting it in writing. Instead they have to call for instructions.

I'm sorry....what? So, nothing at all has changed except they're rescinding the memo...but everything in the memo is still true and in effect?

reply

justmikey.bsky.social•95 days ago

Ugh. So they think by rescinding the memo it’s supposed to make it better? Even after confirming they still plan to keep the freeze?! Wow they really think we’re all a bunch of dumb fks 🤪

Trump doesn't have the constitutional power to freeze funds Congress has appropriated.

Don't take her words at face value. Just look at the EOs. They don't have the widespread "freezing" in place. This is smoke and mirrors, for the Fox News crowd and anyone else who repeats their stuff verbatim without checking to see what it really says.

The only issue is that his supporters will treat that like it makes him great and as a "gotcha, libs!" moment.

reply

elliejean.bsky.social•95 days ago

I'm not all that comforted by this. I heard a lot of "Mr. President, surely you didn't mean to freeze aid to MY constituents" from republicans and not enough of "this is wrong on a basic human level."

They're going to regroup and come up with something more dangerous and targeted toward minorities

Oh, I'd love that. I'd love that even more if by "in the future" was code switching for "next Tuesday."

Keep up the outcry. Our patience is wearing thin for their illegal tactics, and they know it. People can only take so much abuse.

fredgrott.bsky.social•95 days ago

no he rescinded the OBM memo the EO freezing funds is still in play because DEMs were playing jail yard chess instead of looking at those two items together.

A Pause on Funding Pause

A freeze declared, but not for long.
Backlash proved Trump’s choice was wrong.
The courts stepped in, the plan was dead
And left him scratching his big orange head.

Yes, but then he seethes and lashes out even worse.

We'll see how long that lasts. I suspect the follow-up will be more target program guts rather than an across-the-board blanket one that defunds everything all at once.
