squistion 1,944 Posted March 5 But wait there's more from SCOTUS. Supreme Court Orders Release of $2 Billion USAID Funds The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled 5-4 against President Trump's attempt to cancel nearly $2 billion in foreign aid spending. This decision upholds an earlier ruling by a district court judge, compelling the Trump administration to pay USAID contractors for work already completed. Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh dissented, expressing concerns over the judiciary's role in executive financial decisions.

Tebok 298 Posted March 5 2 hours ago, shadrap said: misinformation?? as in Biden is sharp as a tack that we heard for 4 years from the media? This has nothing to do with Biden. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03/05/us/trump-speech-congress Quote “We found hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud.” Lacks evidence. Quote “As you know, we inherited, from the last administration, an economic catastrophe and an inflation nightmare.” Misleading, Quote “We will take in trillions and trillions of dollars and create jobs like we have never seen before.” Lacks evidence. Quote “We ended all of Biden’s environmental restrictions that were making our country far less safe and totally unaffordable. And importantly, we ended the last administration’s insane electric vehicle mandate, saving our autoworkers and companies from economic destruction.” False. Quote “I’ve stopped all government censorship and brought back free speech in America.” False. Quote “We suffered the worst inflation in 48 years, but perhaps even in the history of our country. As president, I’m fighting every day to reverse this damage and make America affordable again.” Lacks context. Quote “Joe Biden especially let the price of eggs get out of control — and we’re working hard to get it back down.” Misleading. The bird flu is to blame for the rise in egg prices, and Trump would have to make the bird flu go away to make prices drop. Quote “Our goal is to get toxins out of our environment, poisons out of our food supply, and keep our children healthy and strong.” Misleading. Then there is all that crap about the people well over 100 who are still on the Social Security books. Trump's implication is that they're still receiving benefits. They are not. They just haven't been purged from the books. He also highly exaggerated other countries' tariffs. The list goes on and on. All he did last night was brag, exaggerate and hit the usual MAGA obsession points such as Biden and trannies. He didn't provide any ideas about how he plans to accomplish anything. Just the usual piping-air flowing out of his buttholeshaped piehole. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the one thing that always bothered me about conservative appointments is that during the nomination process they come off as staunch conservatives but then after they get the position they get soft.
