    Elon musk access to the treasury

    I will be surprised. The Constitution vests certain powers to the legislative, to the executive, and to the judicial branch. These lower court judges were not given the ability to block the President, Treasury Secretary. and OMB Director and their auditor from accessing the Treasury but limit it to some leftover unelected and unappointed hack from the previous administration.
  3. Hegseth split the difference. It's not named after Braxton Bragg but Roland Bragg.

    Elon musk access to the treasury

    The law-interpretation-impaired activist judge's injunction at Treasury remains intact. It is not being broken as far as I know. DOGE has legal access and is going through Health and Labor right now. Hopefully the dingdong comes to his/her/zer senses or else SCOTUS weighs in.

    I am the COMMON SENSE poster!

    Does a constitutional crisis happen when the executive and legislative branch looks for cost savings and staffing reductions or when the lowest rungs of the judicial branch hold nationwide injunctions telling the executive and legislative branches to stop looking for cost savings, demand they pay for everything, and won't let them fire anyone?
  6. It's been awesome. We've been talking about draining the swamp for decades and that was always just conjecture, a pie-in-the-sky fantasy we knew the politicians would never deliver. But here we are, it's happening and it's wonderful.
  7. Yes. Th Democrat party that supports packing the courts and eliminating the Electoral College is using activist judges in circuit courts, courts not even mentioned in the Constitution, to overtun the will of the people and tell the elected legislative branch and the executive branch how to do its job. Meanwhile, you have Democratic states trying to nullify federal law on immigration, just like they tried to do during the Civil War. The Democrats defend corruption, censorship, surveillance of citizens, fraud waste and abuse, in adition to their usual fare of carving up kids genitles, racism, and every other degenerate evil thing under the sun. What scum. Hopefully SCOTUS will reign them all in and Trump pounds them to dust.

    Its New York, that electorate could do significantly worse.

    The People have access to the US Treasury!!

    The Dems are filling a flurry of frivolous lawsuits and getting their activist judges to lay down nationwide injunctions to tie everything up in legal purgatory for as long as possible. Iโ€™d be a lot happier if SCOTUS were playing Instantaneous Whack-a-Mole whenever this bullsh1t appears but theyโ€™re sitting on their hands instead.
  13. Iโ€™ve lost track of which new left wing new username is whom. Seems theyโ€™re getting banned more frequently lately and I canโ€™t keep up.
  14. I knew something would eventually come along to break up this torrent of happy / wonderful news we've been having for three weeks.

  17. Kweisi Mfume is back in the news? Has he been hiding under a rock for 30 years?
  18. Dems have to criticize everything Trump does. It's just so compelling. That's why they're all enthusiastically strapping themselves in on the losing side of popular issues like secure borders, fighting wasteful spending, government surveillance and censorship, tranny bullsh*t, DEI, lawfare, and on and on.

    Trump just ended the war in Ukraine!

    What I learned in the 'Tulsi Gabbard gets confirmed' thread is that the OP has a tendency to get out over of his skis.
  20. They have? Which ones? Seems to me that even if they get sent somewhere, they'll p*ss off their host country who will whine like banshees to kick them out and the next Dem that becomes president will send them back into territory we spent a fortune rebuilding (see Panama Canal). After five year of returning and sh*tting everywhere and building tunnels, they'll start another wat and it'll look just like it does now.

    I forgot to add that they now wholly own and support the domestic spying abuses that Eric Snowden revealed. Trump, like other awful fascists in history before him, promotes limiting/reducing the size and reach of his government, deregulation. opening the books on fraud, and abuse, stops spying on citizens, and not putting political opponents in jail. Oh, the horrors. Meanwhile, the Democrats have embraced the Washington Post's position promoting "Democracy Dying in Darkness."

    I was wrong about the Deep State!

    I've learned to never underestimate the thickness of walls in their echo chamber.
