Interesting.

Last time I checked the President didn’t get to unilaterally decide to only spend funds appropriated by congress on those things that happen to align with the president's political agenda.

You consistently regurgitate the dumbest right wing rage posts/talking points, I’ll give you that.
The left-wing 501c3 NGO complex was funded by the Biden regime. Your posts are as smart as 50 million dollars worth of condoms for Gaza. I live in the real world where it might be upsetting to people who supported open borders, inflation, criminals, and Hunter Biden's high-priced artwork without questions.

Frankly, that dumb idea lines up with the stupid shit you post all the time.
I don't support eliminating the TSA. Maybe winding it into another agency. Pipeline security regulations and airports in one house is a little weird.

Demand Justice took the last seat on SCOTUS after running a Retire Breyer. Psaki came from there. The Brookings Institute and Center for American Progress must not exist. You also have a whole semi-think tank in the entire media which is aligned with the DNC. Find me the right-wing equivalent of Arabella Advisors while you're on this fake outrage campaign.
What does any of this gargle of whataboutism mean?

You are correct, it is fake outrage, I'm not a fucking moron and absolutely could see think tanks pushing their policies through. Just like they do it with the DNC. But, there's plenty of people on this very website who convinced themselves that Heritage Foundation was just being a bunch of silly billies and that Trump was separate from them.

Then why wouldn’t he run on it? He released a platform that has been a pretty solid outline of what he has done to date. I don’t recall him campaigning on Panama, Greenland, Gulf of America, or Guantanamo- but you can’t be serious that they all just ran to Heritage to see what to do.

What? Focus. My point was that the think tank that everyone said wasn't going to be involved, is very much involved.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember Trump ever saying Heritage wouldn't be involved, but that he had nothing to do with the drafting of Project 2025. The entire framing about it from the left this summer was that Project 2025 was some sinister Trump super plan to make America Literally Nazi Germany, but I think it is pretty true that Trump had nothing to do with the drafting or approval of it.

Was that in a memo?

Welp, apparently the Hamas condom scandal that got you all wound up wasn’t such a big deal after all.


This is a total clown show.

It is hilarious.

They pulled it back to clear up the guidance. They had to fix a clown show that was handing money to immigrant tranny hookers for HIV awareness and other insane causes left and right. I recognize that seeing the country have a president again looks concerning to you, but stay calm. It's the golden age of America!

The order to freeze funding wasn't a blanket order for all spending.

To think Trump is using the Project 2025 playbook is lazy thinking. Are there pieces he is in alignment with? Sure, but that doesn't mean he's implementing Project 2025. That would be like you claiming I'm a Cowboys fan because I like Zach Martin.

No, but it is fair to say that many authors of Project 2025 from Heritage have already been selected or will hold key roles in the Trump administration. And that's okay lol

I imagine this said in Toronto's mirror 10 times before leaving the shelter every day. Maybe if you up it to 12 it will become true.

I may be alone - but I find TSA to be a ridiculous waste of time and money. Bunch of theater to give the perception of doing something.

Maybe a government reorg is in order. Companies restructure all the time. The government just gets fatter. We could prob restructure a lot, trim some waste, and keep the critical components of TSA.

I'm not saying no airport security - let's just stop being retarded about it.

Politician says he/she is going to do something. Politician gets elected, does the thing he/she said they'd do.

Politician's party claims "They're not doing that thing they said they'd do."

This country is as collectively exhausting as it is collectively stupid.

12 hours after the worst plane crash in America in 24 years, Senator Kevin Cramer is on Fox talking about $16 billion in transportation cuts.

A fucking grim group of people if there ever was.

Is this you trying to project Mike Lee as the Republican Party again?

Not a particularly good look, but he was probably scheduled before the tragedy.

The TSA is about 90% show and 10% actual security effectiveness. Any professional spook or spec ops could easily get weapons or explosives past them. I'm certainly in favor of airport security, but TSA isn't effective. I wouldn't mind seeing it done by the military, which could be much better at it and cost less.
