Does the left admit that democrats shut down the government because they were angry about the Jan 6 demonstration and they didn't trust crypto currency? You might as well admit that TDS was the cause of the government shutdown.

Trump administration cancels nearly $8 billion in climate funding to blue states: Vought​

The Trump administration has canceled nearly $8 billion in funding for climate-related projects in primarily Democratic-controlled states, a top administration official said on Wednesday.

The move came hours after the same official, Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought, revealed that the Trump administration had frozen about $18 billion in federal funding to two major infrastructure projects in New York City.

“Nearly $8 billion in Green New Scam funding to fuel the Left’s climate agenda is being cancelled,” Vought wrote in a post on the social media site X, on the same day the federal government shut down after Congress did not pass a stopgap funding bill.

‘Dangerous Cities,’ the Military, Trump and the Founding Fathers​

In the middle of Tuesday’s rambling speech at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, President Trump told hundreds of the country’s military commanders his latest thinking on where they should next set their sights.

Not Poland, or Romania, or Estonia or Denmark, all NATO allies where Russian drones have in the past month violated airspace in a challenge to the alliance’s borders.

The president chose San Francisco. Chicago. New York. Los Angeles.

“We’re going to straighten that out one by one, and this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room,” Mr. Trump told the generals, admirals and enlisted leaders, referring to what he has described as crime-filled urban hellscapes.

“It’s a war from within,” he said.

In that moment, the president again pitted himself against the wishes of the country’s founding fathers, historians and former military leaders say.

Aside from Dotard's view of the conditions in many US cities being downright delusional, his remedy is both illegal and goes against what the Founders intended.

At issue are tax credits that have made health insurance more affordable for millions of people since the COVID-19 pandemic. The subsidies, which go to low- and middle-income people who purchase health insurance through the Affordable Care Act, are slated to expire at the end of the year if Congress doesn’t extend them. Their expiration would more than double what subsidized enrollees currently pay for premiums next year, according to an analysis by KFF, a nonprofit that researches health care issues.

Looming health insurance spikes for millions are at the heart of the government shutdown

The federal government's shut down centers around Democrats insisting that any deal addressing their health care demands and Republicans saying those negotiations can wait until the government is funded.

The end to subsidies being necessary to lower the deficit caused by the tax cuts. It's classic rob Peter to pay Paul. In this case Paul being corporations and billionaires.

There should be no student loan profits and if there are they need to be put back into lowering student loan costs, not anything else.

Taking from education to pay for healthcare while giving away tax cuts to the wealthy makes no sense to anyone who prioritizes low and middle class interests.

Full stop. Regardless of how the leftist at the NYTimes want to paint it, what DHS, and ICE are doing is exactly in keeping with law.

2. The POTUS is absolutely within his authority to protect federal institutions engaged in lawful activities such as ICE, and DHS functions…

“SUBJECT: Department of Defense Security for the Protection of Department of Homeland Security Functions

Numerous incidents of violence and disorder have recently occurred and threaten to continue in response to the enforcement of Federal law by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal functions and supporting the faithful execution of Federal immigration laws. In addition, violent protests threaten the security of and significant damage to Federal immigration detention facilities and other Federal property. To the extent that protests or acts of violence directly inhibit the execution of the laws, they constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.

In light of these incidents and credible threats of continued violence, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard under 10 U.S.C. 12406 to temporarily protect ICE and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal functions, including the enforcement of Federal law, and to protect Federal property, at locations where protests against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations.”

3. Crime in major cities - while POTUS must be careful to make sure that military force is not seen as providing law enforcement duties without a declaration of insurrection existing, he can deploy them to free up some administrative duties of law enforcement to get a handle on crime within a proscribed area. Also, if the President feels that the level of crime is rising to a level of rebellion, he can federalize NG and use them in limited roles.

Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to fight crime blurs the legal distinction between the police and the military

A former FBI agent-turned-scholar says using National Guard troops to reduce crime in cities such as Chicago and Baltimore would violate legal prohibitions against domestic military law enforcement.

Trump Seizes On Shutdown to Punish Political Foes​

President Trump has embarked on a legally dubious campaign to weaponize the federal budget during a contentious government shutdown, halting more than $27 billion in approved funding in a bid to punish Democratic-led cities and states.

Rather than broker a legislative truce or seek to ameliorate the fallout of a costly fiscal stalemate, the president has leveraged the crisis to exact revenge on rivals, slash federal spending and pressure Democrats into accepting his political demands.

Since the shutdown started on Wednesday, the Trump administration has canceled or delayed federal aid to 16 states, most of them run by Democrats. In the latest example, Russell T. Vought, the White House budget director, said on Friday that the administration would halt about $2.1 billion in approved funding for long-planned transit improvements in Chicago.

Mr. Vought claimed the pause was necessary to ensure that the city, which is led by a Democratic mayor in a state with a Democratic governor, had not engaged in “race-based contracting.”
