Always remember to remind your republican leaders that none of this would be possible without their approval. They could have ended this upcoming nightmare years ago, even before the tRump years as they worked to cut law enforcement on white collar crime that the IRS went after.
The problem with that is that most of our "republican leaders" are pretty okay with whatever Donny ConJob wants. Rather than view this as a nightmare, they're onboard because GAWD. The Almighty, through divine intervention, saved the Con's life so that he could 'return' the USA to being a 'Christian' nation (which it never was, but... yeah).
I know it’s off topic, but how can a convicted felon, US Constitution deconstructionist and Viet Nam bone spur war dodger stand up, in front of God and all of America, on the US Capitol grounds and swear to God, with one hand on a Holy Bible and the other lifted up to heaven, to protect and defend our Democratic Republic and it’s Constitution, against all enemies, foreign and domestic? If ever there was a time for someone to be smote instantly into ashes by a lighting bolt from above, that would be the optimum time.
To every American who has sworn that same oath, who, since before our country’s struggle for independence from the tyranny of the British crown, through all the wars and civil unrest and disruptions across the world, especially those who gave their lives upholding their own oath to the continuance of the shining beacon of Democracy and the rule of law, that their sacrifice was indeed in vain. It counted for nothing. It breaks my heart.
One thing Nixon lacked was a Congress willing to go along with the cuts he wanted. This Congress may be more malleable. We need to elect sensible people to fill the seats vacated by various appointments. That the districts seem compliant (why else would Trump choose those people as cabinet material) makes a sane election less likely.
If there is one thing we can now be certain of, it is that the majority of the voting public does not have a working understanding of the US Constitution.
I must be really slow. I read Article II three times and I couldn't find any mention of an Impoundment Power in any of its sections. Can someone point me to the right paragraph?
I, too am interested in the answer to this question. I am so sick and tired of the deluge of lies and red herrings used by all of T***p and MAGA supporters to justify their motives and hide the truth about what they are doing. It really sucks to have been able to see through the BS since 2015, and at the same time watch everyone else close their eyes and minds and goose step toward the destruction of the country I love and have served. People like me need all the factual information we can get, to tell our family and friends what is “really” happening. Thank you.
Oh, that. Yeh. Surprises for all who voted for such greatness? Party... woo-hoo-oo! NOT. For everyone else, it covers about 90 percent on our bingo cards.
The Lord of Chaos, Donny Tantrum himself, promises revenge and retribution on his enemies and that includes, it seems, everyone who has said mean things about him, disagrees with him or happens to be on the same planet as him. Bumpy ride? Cobblestones on the way to hell.

Okay it’s 6 am and I’ve just read your notice before coffee. I didn’t get it all to sink in yet but it doesn’t sound good for us. Thanks (really)
could posters please refrain from using pictures of tffg and his pseudo vp?

I doubt most Americans will notice or care. Sad commentary on our culture.

Of course they will let him get away with it. They - almost all republicans in both houses, and the right wing members of the SC - want it too.

Congress has already ceded legislative power to the Supreme Court, via TFG, (& McConnell) anyway. They will most certainly keep rolling over for him.
Thanks for explaining how things work.
