I know a large number hate what's happening, but precedent says they won't do a thing. They did not impeach the President while in office. They did not strongly oppose his bid for re-election. They fell in line very quickly when it was obvious he was going to get the nomination and after that, it was over.

This is up to the courts and the Democrats.

Someone is basically walking around your house, declaring they own it while trashing every room. And no, they don’t own it.

Will any of them wake up, be honest with themselves, be brave? This is bad for all of us. So they piss off their fellow Republicans—they’ll get over it. Get voted out and write a book and go on the lecture circuit about what it took to save a democracy and stand up for the US Constitution.

Republican Senator Katie Britt of Alabama is suddenly concerned over Trump's cuts to NIH grants—now that they’re hurting the University of Alabama, the state’s largest employer. Funny how quickly perspectives shift when Republicans feel the impact firsthand. It’s all fine until the suffering lands in their own backyard!

FAFO

40,000 federal government employees work in Alabama.

This is absolute hogwash. But sure manipulate the polls.

DP. Most voters don’t even have the slightest clue about what he’s actually doing. The polls are irrelevant.

Good riddance.

I can’t wait for the end of the Deep State nonsense. Maybe this time around career staff will actually do their jobs.

Once again for the people in the back, there is no Deep State. The first Trump administration was like this one, just much more subdued - a bunch of EOs of dubious legality and zero practicality that the career staff had no idea what to do with. Politicals who had no idea how the agencies and laws were set up and didn’t understand appropriations. No budgets passed. And the bureaucracy is designed on purpose to thwart the kind of thing that is going on now, but setting into law procedures and protections to ensure that someone doesn’t just come in and raid the treasury or some weird thing like that.

Oh, like the student loan EOs of no legality that Biden then doubled down on and openly said he would push through just to see what he could get by with? Both sides play this game, you just don’t like this one. We’ve been there too and had to lump it, so do you.

Biden didn’t push them through. All remaining forgiveness was accomplished under existing programs like PSLF. His administration complied with every court order immediately. Stuff like the SAVE plan was frozen and stayed that way.

Of course, it’s insane that you think providing debt relief to people is even remotely comparable to firing employees without cause, freezing money that feeds starving children, or cutting off funding for cancer research.

Regardless, if what Biden did is so awful in your eyes, there is no possible way for you to defend Trump’s efforts now. You cannot claim Biden somehow attempted to exceed his authority more than Trump is now. At best, they’re the same. In which case you should be up in arms at Trump. But you’re not. Why?

+1000. Biden complied with all the court decisions even when they were transparent political BS.

So your judges are saving the constitution but conservative judges are blatant political BS. We see you.

PP is gutless, cruel, and utterly stupid POS, that's why.

They probably don't understand most of the stuff is illegal. We need Republicans to tell them because they won't believe Democrats.
