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.

Old Soviet joke:

Why do ICE agents travel in groups of three?

One can read, one can write, and the third keeps an eye on the two intellectuals

He replaced the Nazi tattoo on his chest with another more obscure Nazi tattoo. And the reveal of the new more obscure Nazi tattoo on his chest also revealed another Nazi tattoo on his right arm.

You have to be willing to walk away from these guys if they let you down, just as a matter of basic self respect. It's not a fandom. You're hiring them to do a job or not.

this also drives me insane, this idea that it is the most normal thing in the world for a young (white) man to have a nazi curious phase. it isn’t!

maybe she could be pressured into it, but it's an awful risk. *extremely* easy to see Dems falling ass backwards into another trifecta in 2028 and then frittering it away (because that's exactly what they did last time)

I've given up on Platner, but putting another decrepit Senate brained filibuster lover in there would be not that much better than keeping Collins. rules out most of what needs to happen

The third Game 7 homer EVER in the 7th inning or later that turned a deficit into a lead. The others:

one of the consistently interesting things about ACA criticism since it was signed into law is how critics discount or ignore the medicaid expansion

From cuts to SNAP and Medicaid to ICE raids and attacks on free speechβ€”our families deserve better. We’re tired of fear, division, and neglect. It’s time to stand up, speak out, and say loud and clear: enough is enough. Watch my full remarks: youtu.be/2y0_w7vwxzg...

If Jason Miyares wants to argue that "may" means "shall" he can do it in court.

Ehhh he's already illegally impounding Congressionally appropriated money. The withholding of funding through legal channels is an empty threat if he can just do it illegally instead. If the Feds want cooperation they gotta follow the law and the Constitution.
