This entire presidency is like being tied to a chair and watch a toddler play with a load pistol.

I’m sure congress is going to love the executive stealing money from appropriations that create jobs and economic activity in their district!

The White House says it’s going to use procurement dollars to illegally pay the troops for rather than do it the legal way of enacting a military pay bill.

You cannot w/ a straight face tell me using procurement dollars to pay the military adheres to the purpose statute and the Antideficiency Act.

Zoom in: Earlier in the week it was unclear whether the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) could find roughly $5.3 billion to make the military's payroll by Friday, but two White House officials tell Axios the money was found at the last minute. The OMB found:
$2.5 billion from a military housing fund specified in Trump's "big beautiful bill" to continue paying housing allowances for military personnel.
• $1.4 billion from the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation fund, which largely will cover U.S. Army and Air Force payroll. The account normally funds military research and was heavily relied upon two weeks ago to cover military paychecks.
• $1.4 billion from a Defense Department procurement account for building U.S. Navy ships, largely to fund the Navy and Marines.

Is this a real bus pass? I think it's counterfeit!

Are you legally entitled to buy a bus pass? I need to verify your reported income.

Geezus H. Christ!

Next they'll be arming IRS agents with M16s.

And lived to tell the tale? Ginger's cane should have been registered as a deadly weapon.

Disraeli Gears holds up pretty well. Wheels Of Fire is still better, I think.

Cream was the first band I truly loved. Saw them on their Goodbye tour. Two cops carried Ginger to the stage, he was so thin/weak.

Alas, the 7th Circuit overruled that. Bovino will not have to report to the Principal's Office each day.
