Literally LOL. All these people tried so hard to fearmonger in the first admin and it’s obviously not working for this one. You played all your cards already libs! But yes please keep telling ppl that hospitals are closing because of there’s been a pause on funding for 12 hours 😂 I’m sure the dumb ones will eventually vote like you want them to!

I can tell from your trolling you’re scared the damage from all this will actually resonate. Thanks for letting us know.


Please, just like govt shutdown nobody will notice except for the washington swamp that feeds off this trough. Maybe some fake spectacle like putting up a caution come to not enter the Washington mall but the public sees through it.


My brother in law was just about to start a job with a non profit
They let him know today they need to see what is up with their grant money now before he actually starts. He lives in Ohio.


Most of these nonprofits are scams or lobbyists, most should go away if they can fund themselves

Meals on wheels providers are a scam?


There are a lot of meal on wheels providers so some of them probably are.


How stupid are you with your weak speculation - based on your feelings no doubt. If you know of meals on wheels providers who are scamming, by all means turn them in! But, you don't.

And your spouse’s cancer trial. And my kid’s title 1 school. And VA loans for the house a vet is supposed to close on this week. And federal loans for college kids. And ACA premium assistance, throwing people off health insurance, and drug trials and Medicare reimbursements for your MD who will drop Medicare fast if they aren't getting paid and leave you without MDs. And reimbursements for the only rural hospital in a 100 mile radius still open. And Vet transition services. And SBA loans keeping small businesses out of bankruptcy. Etc. Etc.

DEI needs to stop living rent free in your tiny, ignorant brain.


I also want to add, let me give you a concrete example of a DEIA impact. They've shut down the accessibility office when ordering RTO. I have a coworker who is in a wheelchair and we have no idea how we get her an accessible desk setup now.


co-workers order one from staples and set it up. Like how it is done in private sector.

Oh you old dinosaur you, you still around?

You can’t because this hasn’t happened before. We are talking trillions of dollars.


Wonderful! This is what the American people voted for.

Please cite the last time a new administration paused every federal grant. You said this happens all the time. Give one example.


Not the PP but this is, unfortunately, what American voters seem to want. Maybe if it hits hard enough some of them will realize it wasn’t really what they wanted, but time will tell.

No it’s not. He didn’t win a popular majority; 1.7 million more people voted against him than for him. Only 23% of the population actually cast a ballot for him. His party also has historically narrow majorities in the House and Senate despite structural advantages that should tilt both chambers in Republicans’ favor.

More importantly, he disavowed Project 2025 on the campaign trail because polls showed it was deeply unpopular. But now, he is enacting every policy it laid out and even letting Project 2025 authors draft the implementation memos. He lied. Again. And now the whole country gets to suffer for it.


Choosing not to vote at all is still a choice that tilted the election to Trump. Sorry but I don’t feel bad for those people either.

Most conservatives actually support most of Project 2025, they just said they didn’t because Trump said he didn’t. Everyone was lying, surprise surprise.


Well we can also blame Dems (of which I’m one) for not having a real primary and letting someone clearly not up to the job of campaigning run again. And then way late in the game installing a very unpopular candidate, who couldn’t even make it to the first primary when running in 2020, take over.

Do better, Dems.


I bet you side with the abuser instead of the victim.


DP. As an independent, I agree with that poster.


Independents are just conservatives who can't stand the heat. They want plausible deniability. "You made me do it. Wah!" Babies


Blame me if you want - but it was Democrats who didn't show up to vote for their candidate.

Shoulda picked better.


Exactly- and this is why republicans will continue to have the upper hand in presidential elections. I know you all think were part of a “cult” but there are plenty republicans who don’t particularly like Trump as a person (I preferred Haley) but he was the nominee and what was the alternative, voting for a democrat? lol no. Meanwhile you guys (and some “independents”) are waiting for the second coming of Obama, no one short of perfect will do. Oh well! Your loss.


I mean this seriously: I hope all these changes affect you acutely and imminently.


It's all excuses. This person wanted to vote for Trump. It doesn't matter who else was running.


Some people get off on being cruel, that's very clear.

But for self preservation purposes you do not want a section of the populace to be hungry, desperate, and homeless.


That’s very true. I think the maga mindset qualifies as a form of mental illness. These are some twisted people, and none too bright.

How do you know it's unrelated?

This will trickle down into state and local governnent funding also. Lots of layoffs on the state and county level next. There will be a lot of unemployment. I guess if you feel rage against bureaucrats you'll be happy. But these people are your family members, neighbors, etc. Have fun gloating.

Medicaid is down in all 50 states. The only place where the chaos is not visible is Fox News.

You know nothing about shelters. They are s bed at night, nothing more, and usually full. People need a toilet or they poop and pee outdoors. People need a kitchen. The people hanging out on urban streets with all their belongings in a trash bag often DO sleep in shelters. They have to leave during early in the morning. I'd rather people have an apartment. Frankly, I'd rather not see them walking around so I'm not just speaking as a bleeding heart liberal.

A federal Judge disagrees with your conclusion.

You know what, let it burn. Let people see what they voted for. This effort lasted about 12 hours before the courts issued a TRO.

How much shelter space do you think is available?


Don't feed this idiotic troll.


Ordinarily, I would agree with you, but I think now is the time to push back hard even if sometimes you get lured in by a troll. No more complacency.
