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.
Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which canβt move because the House isnβt in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue.
POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous
JB Pritzker: βAnother thing thatβs happened with very few people paying attention is they demanded our voter data. Not just ours in Illinois β every stateβs voter data. Why? They wonβt tell us why.β

It feels like Pritzker is de facto the leader of the opposition now in the same way Trump was under Biden. A lot is due to circumstances and there's certainly some wishful thinking on my part too, but it feels nice to have someone in the arena.

Rightly confident in his impunity.

It is not clear that Mr. Trumpβs image can be featured on a coin. An 1866 law enshrined a tradition that only deceased people could appear on U.S. currency to avoid the appearance that America was a monarchy. Trump admin is planning to do it anyway.

We are bailing out Argentina while Argentinaβs farmers sell soybeans to China in the place of American farmers which is putting them out of business, so now we also have to bail out American farmers while Argentinian farmers make bank.
