Weird for a retiree to spend his entire day radicalizing himself on Xchan and gullibly swallowing every lie peddled to get him all gimped up about owning the libs.
"Today, protesters gathered across the country to protest the takeover of the U.S. government by Musk and his cronies, and Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) noted on Facebook that the U.S. Senate phone system has been overwhelmed with around 1,600 calls a minute, in contrast to the 40 calls a minute it usually receives. Representative Mark Pocan (D-WI) announced he would introduce the ELON MUSK Act—the Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy Act—which would ban federal contracts for Special Government Employees, similar to the bans for members of Congress and other federal employees.
Opposition might well continue to grow, as the bite of the cuts the Trump administration and Musk are making to the federal government is only beginning to be felt at home (the collapse of USAID is already an international crisis). Those cuts are poised to hurt Trump’s own rural voters worse than they hurt Democratic areas. In Virginia, about 400,000 people in rural areas receive healthcare from federally qualified health centers; half of these centers have lost their federal grants and are stopping some services or closing. Trump is currently planning to eliminate the Department of Education; the top six states that receive grants under the department—Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Nevada—all voted for Trump in 2024.
Tonight, Democratic senators, led by Chuck Schumer (NY), Jeff Merkley (OR), Patty Murray (WA), Gary Peters (MI), and Brian Schatz (HI), will hold the Senate floor all night in a filibuster to stop the confirmation of Russell Vought, a key right-wing author of Project 2025, to direct the Office of Management and Budget. “Vought’s proposals to slash federal funding will threaten Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security,” the senators said. “Vought will also continue to carry out President Donald Trump’s illegal federal funding cuts, stopping taxpayer dollars from supporting local schools, police departments, community health centers, food pantries, firefighters, and other vital programs.”

I don't lie. Do you have a set of the Encyclopedia Brittanica to prove me wrong?
I don't because I care that what i say is true, unlike you who gargles musky balls and any other right-wing disinformation propagandist on Xchan.I stopped at you don't lie.
Cute edit. I still stopped at you don't lie.I don't lie. Do you have a set of the Encyclopedia Brittanica to prove me wrong?
Oh and you're not moderate - you're a simp for Elon and Trump, the most far-right fascists this country has ever seen. I am the true moderate and you can't name one extreme far-left position I've ever advocated for - you just can't.
How credible is someone like this? He needs help and our sympathy.I don't because I care that what i say is true, unlike you who gargles musky balls and any other right-wing disinformation propagandist on Xchan.
But here's the thing, if you can prove I lied, I'm man enough to admit to it and I will apologize - but you can't.
Good night Salty Ole Bitch
I cannot tell you how much I love this post. And that the President has the power to end the corruption of the Democrats.That first line is beautiful considering all you do is literally spew MSM propaganda talking points ad nauseum. You lap that shit up like a dog. Instead of thinking for yourself and actually cross checking the information provided, you gladly ingest it without question.

Article II of the U.S. Constitution establishes the Executive Branch of the federal government. The Executive Vesting Clause, in Section 1, Clause 1, provides that the federal executive power is vested in the President. Section 3 of Article II further requires the President to take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.1 The executive power thus consists of the authority to enforce laws and to appoint the agents charged with the duty of such enforcement.2 The President also has distinct authority over foreign affairs, and alone has the power to speak or listen as a representative of the nation.3 As a general matter, the Supreme Court has recognized that the Constitution vests the President not only with the authorities expressly delineated therein, but also with certain implied authorities,4 such as the ability to supervise (and generally to remove) executive officials5 and the power to recognize foreign governments.6 At the same time, the Court has said that by granting the President the power of faithfully executing the laws, the Constitution refutes the idea that the President was intended to be a lawmaker.7 Nonetheless, the Court has recognized that officials appointed by the President—even those located within the Executive Branch—may exercise regulatory or adjudicative powers that are quasi-legislative or quasi-judicial.8 Broadly, the Court has recognized that Executive Officers exercise authority to enforce and administer the laws, including rulemaking, administrative determinations, and the filing of lawsuits.9
It's not about owning the libs, for goodness sake, it's about PROVIDING FOR ALL AMERICANS on the left, right and center. If you just took a few minutes to deviate from gov't propaganda mouthpieces and do some research, you'd understand how the USAID has been nothing more than a corrupt cesspool of absolute theft from Americans for decades.
He is being kind ...
He is great upgrade.He is being kind ...
Ask Congress who approved the spending. And while you trust the fake manipulations of two billionaires who will make a windfall by destroying programs that actually help people in need, in order to make room for a massive tax break for themselves, some of us will keep our eyes on the ball.Can any lefty explain the insane spending of USAID without posting some propaganda news article?
Our own farmers will greatly sufferCan any lefty explain the insane spending of USAID without posting some propaganda news article?
