Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders condemned Trumpās order to freeze all federal loans and grants, calling it a ādangerous move towards authoritarianismā and āblatantly unconstitutional.ā
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 āpower of the purseā and urged Americans to oppose the order.
Attorneys general are preparing legal challenges to overturn the freeze.
The world is richer than ever my guy. There are more super rich than ever. Fuck this underfunding attitude.
Yep, and austerity kills people. If you want to force the Pentagon to pass an audit before giving them another penny, be my guest, but āthe governmentā isnāt wasteful.
Also even if everything ends up being funded again, this put a whole ton of needless stress on people wondering if theyāre gonna get paid.
Thatās my point, tax the rich.
