worth reiterating again that “the executive can raise and spend money however he likes” has been anathema even under monarchies for centuries

we’re not rolling back anything in US history here, we’re rolling back the English Civil War

Odds are this aggressively did not happen. But it would of course be just as unconstitutional to spend money donated to the government without a duly enacted appropriation as it is to spend tax money that way.

Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

They are tough questions...

True or False:
* You are allowed to shoot priests in the head with pepper balls?
* You can break down doors without a warrant?
* You can snatch any person of color off the street to check their status?
* You can hold US citizens/residents without lawyers/charging them?

Slap a $250 on that and plaster Trump's neck-gina picture on the front.

If you can just "get to work" as a House Representative without being sworn in, then I'm just going to go ahead and proclaim myself Speaker and do Johnson's damn job of negotiating and voting to get the government back open.

Sigh... We needed those 42 million people to march on Oct. 18th.

I also want them to do to Mar-a-Lago what Trump and his supporters have done to Congress and the White House.

Amado @mitflunkie.bsky.social · 2d

Honestly... If we can strong arm him into sending one of those big checks on camera for $230M to Feeding America, it might be a way for the government to fund Food Banks. 🤔

(I'd make damnnn sure that check does go through, though)

Per standard, those plans will be available in "two weeks".

Reuters headline:

White House says it will submit ballroom plans for review, with demolition already under way

When this is said and done, the US needs to seize Mar-a-Lago, demolish it and turn it into a landfill/public toilet.

Amado @mitflunkie.bsky.social · 3d

Not content to have desecrated Congress, Trump is now literally tearing down the White House. 😡

Up next, he'll tear down the Supreme Court to build another shitty Trump golf course.

But their gestapo attacks on the public populace are still funded? Coolcoolcool

When can we expect the next taxpayer-funded Blackhawk ICE propoganda raid?

Did Qatar run out of bribe jets? She didn't bother to check with the Saudis? Before they gave Jared $2B, they sent a few planes our way.

The 2nd time a King has destroyed the White House. The first in 1814 by a foreign king. This one by a domestic pretender. Disgusting.

Amado @mitflunkie.bsky.social · 4d

Trump cut funding to PBS, so the puppets took matters into their own... errm... hands.

What a carnival clown 🤡... If Obama had "used the Insurrection Act", the country would have immediately do-not-pass-go entered a second civil war.

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town.
Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming.
Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance.

Congrats to every Republican who warned about the massively dangerous pro-terrorist “I Hate America” rallies who now gets to see their words featured in a Daily Show montage with images of sweet little grandmothers waving little American flags

Did they go to the island together, too?
