[quote=Anonymous]Thanks pps!

This is post 1 of X today -- I'm having a terrible time posting this week's and got blocked yesterday. But, it was a no good, very bad week for Trump et al...

[b]Trump’s $1.8 Billion Settlement Fund Sparks Alarm Inside White House.[/b] 
“President Trump’s top aides have discussed whether he should kill the administration’s nearly $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund in exchange for getting immigration enforcement funding passed next month, according to people familiar with the matter.
More than a dozen Republican senators have privately urged top Trump aides to drop the fund since its creation last week, said people familiar with the outreach, including Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who is usually supportive of the president’s efforts. ”

[b]...so TACO time…Trump administration retreated on payout fund, but some in GOP want proof it’s dead. [/b]
“The Justice Department backed off a court fight over the nearly $1.8 billion fund for alleged victims of unfair prosecution. Republican senators say a pause isn’t a promise.”

[b]House passes Democratic bill to aid Ukraine and impose new sanctions on Russia.[/b]
“The legislation, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., seeks to cement U.S. assistance for Ukraine by providing more than $1 billion in security and reconstruction aid. It would make another $8 billion available for Ukraine's defense through loans.
The 226-195 vote is a sign of impatience with President Donald Trump's approach to the war and represents the House's second major foreign policy break with Trump this week. The day before, the House, for the first time, approved a war powers resolution aimed at halting U.S. military action against Iran .
Supporters were able to force action on the Ukraine bill by gathering 218 signatures on a discharge petition, a legislative tool that allows a majority of the House to effectively bypass leadership.”

[b]A Federal Judge Just Kicked Pete Hegseth’s A— in an Immensely Satisfying Decision—The Secretary of Talking About War’s pogrom against trans people in the military was rightfully smacked down.[/b]
“Here’s what His Honor Judge Robert Wilkins had to say:
“In this litigation, the government has not attempted to defend or provide any factual basis for these disparaging characterizations of American citizens. Indeed, the government has not contested that the Plaintiff-Appellees who are currently serving (and who have collectively earned more than 80 commendations) have served honorably and pose no threat to national security, even though they happen to be transgender and have suffered from gender dysphoria.”
…
“I conclude that the Hegseth Policy is both arbitrary and based upon animus, and for those reasons the Policy violates Plaintiff-Appellees’ constitutional right to equal protection of the law.”
In other words, you’re a bigot, and you should shut your gob and have a seat. And so should your boss.”
