Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Our job is not to throw 15 million people off health care and double insurance premiums for more than 20 million.

Our job is not to shutter community health centers, nursing homes and rural hospitals.

Our job is to fix a broken system and guarantee health care to all.

It’s not clear if this has anything to do with the bromance breakup of Trump and Musk.

Whenever Trump and Republicans talked about waste, fraud, and abuse, it was always projection.

Donald Trump's government is the most wasteful, fraudulent, and corrupt administration in American history.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

$20 billion for Trump's crony in Argentina. Skyrocketing health care cuts, tariffs and food benefit cuts for Americans. #TrumpDeathPlan #TrumpHatesAmerica #AmericaLastTrump

Senator Amy Klobuchar @klobuchar.senate.gov · 8d

Trump’s policies have been a “perfect storm of ugly” for farmers: health care costs are skyrocketing and tariffs are raising input costs while closing off markets.

The admin shouldn’t give Argentina a $20 billion bailout when it’s further undercutting our farmers.

Because of Republicans' health care cuts, families will be forced to the brink of bankruptcy from one bad medical diagnosis.

That's what this shutdown fight is about.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress own this government shutdown.

Starting yesterday, notifications of higher premiums are being sent to 90,000 Minnesotans.

I heard from a small business owner in Eagan whose premium will increase by *at least* $450 a month. That’s $5,400 a year.

That’s why we’re fighting to extend the health care tax credit.
