They're doing this so they can call any government program that isn't ICE or the military "rife with fraud" and thus illegitimate. They are trying to manufacture consent to say any entitlement — from Medicare to social security — must be canceled because of extreme edge cases. Don't fall for it.
The Trump administration sent out letters tonight to 5 blue states, freezing about $10 billion in funding for child care and social services programs pending a "thorough review," citing concerns over "systemic fraud."
5 Democratic-run states are told that their child care funds have been frozen
The suspension of the funds could hurt low-income families in those states, depending on how long it lasts, advocates say.

I knew MAGA was cool with Trump pissing on the Constitution to accomplish domestic goals. But I didn’t realize they would also be cool with him doing it to steal oil and give Netanyahu a blank check. But I guess it’s just a personality cult and nothing but Trump’s will matters.

They act as if oil extraction is very cheap so the price can fall without taking supply off line. Idiots.

I'm paying more for gasoline since Trump's inauguration, in New York (on Biden's last day in office, gasoline was cheaper for me). Almost $3 per gallon now. Trump is destroying gasoline's competition (renewable). Putin, Trump and MBS want to control lots of oil (axis of evil).
