Hey buddy just checking in on this take since you seem to be totally fine with the cost of eggs being higher than ever.

I would think that Trump would at least have SOME plan for countering the Bidenflation that he promised he’d attack on day one. Is that so much to ask?

So, nothing. Good stuff! The hypocrisy of MAGA knows no bounds. Ill keep checking in in case anything changes.

What is Trump doing to lower the cost of eggs? What is Trump doing to lower the cost of eggs?

I am a little mad about this unbelievable power grab, yes Biden attempted to exploit a legal loophole. Trump is straight-up ignoring the limits to the executive office. Do you see the difference?

We aren’t animals, we are human beings. No developed nation on this planet is an ethnostate. Even the empires of old, from Alexander to Mansa Musa, were multicultural. No, I mean the right of people to live where they please. What right do you have to prevent this?

Well, not necessarily, but I’d feel pretty good

Corner is a massive hole. Elam is not a rosterable player.

That’s all well and good, but you’re missing the point of the thread - Trump cannot use this course of action to change government spending. It’s not constitutionally allowed.

Didn’t answer the question. It’s really hilarious how the deflection has begun en masse. What is Trump doing to lower the cost of eggs?

First of all, federal grants aren’t handed out like candy. There’s a rigorous application process that everyone who wants one has to meet. Many are “matching” grants, meaning the applicant has to provide at least a chunk of the money. Second of all, the grant funding does benefit all Americans. For example, federal historic preservation grants are extremely important in keeping parks kept up. Federal housing grants allow housing developers to provide more units at lower cost. Third of all, grant administration is one of my roles at work. It’s a tough job. You have to make sure every single dollar you have is accounted for, or else an audit comes knocking and you’re in trouble. I don’t know any grant administrator that sits around doing nothing.

You are welcome to believe that. However, even in the beginning of the nation Congress was given the power to allocate funds and the President signed the budget. Trump CANNOT cancel funding already allocated by Congress. It’s illegal.

The notion that the modern nation-state is drawn along “ethnic” lines is foolish. Technology has given us a completely connected world, with the free movement and association of people enshrined as a human right. It’s not 1300 anymore. The common good that all human beings seek is the right to self-determination. The amendments you don’t like affirmed this right among ALL Americans no matter what background. The founding fathers of our country were enlightenment thinkers, influenced by Locke, Hobbes, and so forth. The Civil Rights Act was a natural extension of enlightenment thinking.

No, the president approves budgets passed by Congress. He cannot step in and say “nuh uh” to a budget already passed and enacted, which is what he’s doing here. Biden attempted to exploit a loophole in the law that was shut down. It’s not the same thing.

I’m sorry you lost your right to discriminate against black people. Tissue?

Sounds like a declaration of defeat to me.

And this destroyed the constitution how?

What happened in 1964?

There’s nothing to “investigate.” It’s an unconstitutional order. I work in public policy. The executive office does not have the power of the purse and cannot block congressional spending.

There’s no “if it is.” It’s not a constitutional order. Why is Trump trying it? I speculate that he’s testing the waters to consolidate as much power around the executive branch as possible.

How am I coming up short?

What do you think “if not then it’s good” means? Then surely you realize this is illegal for the executive office to do?

No, that’s okay. You’ve been programmed to never accept anything I say anyways so I’ll sit tight. Why don’t you go check your closet for transgender people or something since you seem to be absolutely petrified of them?

Thank you for coming right out and saying you are against the Constitution of the United States! It’s refreshing that someone actually comes out and says how they feel.

Did you miss the “unconstitutional” part or did that slide off your brain?
