Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders condemned Trump’s order to freeze all federal loans and grants, calling it a “dangerous move towards authoritarianism” and “blatantly unconstitutional.”
The directive, exempting Social Security and Medicare, is expected to impact universities, nonprofits, food assistance programs, health centers, and disabled veterans.
Sanders emphasized that Congress holds the “power of the purse” and urged Americans to oppose the order.
Attorneys general are preparing legal challenges to overturn the freeze.
Republicans, everyone who voted for him and everyone who decided to not vote or to vote for third parties all decided that he should be king.
Absolutely. There are also Dems in Congress/Senate that have been voting yea to his bills. It’s disgusting.
“Yeah, every single Republican hates us and are openly corrupt, but like 2 Dems (usually caucusing Independents) are also bad.”
Im confused, are we supposed to pretend that there aren’t also democrats that are voting for Trump initiatives? Because trying to remove accountability for that seems idiotic.
Drawing attention to the outliers that vote against party lines is something that is often done by concern trolls to argue both sides are the same and sow apathy for democrats. This is most noticeable around election time.
You may not be trying to do that but your comment resembles what they would say. Usually blaming all democrats for the actions of a few going against the party.
Im not understanding what you’re trying to say. There are five or so Democrats voting for Trumps antics. And yes, all the Republicans vote down the line, that’s what they do.
I’m trying to say we need to support Democrats unconditionally if we want anything to improve. Any Democrat is better than Any Republican.
Whats your example on 5?
They hated Jesus because he spoke the truth
Supporting democrats unconditionally was what brought you guys into this mess in the first place lmao 🤣
I’m pretty sure that people who didn’t vote or voted for other candidates didn’t decide he should be king, kind of by definition.
Nah they saw the choices and didn’t care to participate in any meaningful way so they can’t just wash their hands of the choice they made.
I mean, Harris got more votes than Biden did in the majority of the swing states. It’s okay to lay the blame squarely on the people who, you know, actually chose Trump.
And I did, along with the other people who are to blame.
Well that’s not squarely then.

“If you don’t want to eat your vegetables, then you can go to bed without dinner. Which do you want, vegetables or bed?”
“I WANT ICE CREAM!”
“That’s it! GO TO YOUR ROOM!”
“I DIDN’T VOTE FOR THIS!”
This is the perfect analogy
Little did he know, there was a mini fridge at the room stocked with ice cream
And also an ICE squad, for extra care
