U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich statement on federal grant freeze: "Trump is clearly willing to pummel New Mexicans and the American economy for his twisted and deranged agenda and fragile ego. But the Constitution is clear: the president cannot override, delay, or rescind Congress’s funding laws."
Statement that says: “Our economy, our healthcare system, our schools, our law enforcement and fire departments, our newborns, our elders, our veterans – everyone, everywhere in New Mexico. President Trump is attempting to shove all of this over a cliff,” said Heinrich. “In New Mexico alone, Trump's blockade on federal funding will make it impossible for thousands to pay rent on February 1st, force tens of thousands of New Mexico students to drop out of college without Pell Grant funding, close hundreds of preschool programs across the state, deprive 7 out of 10 New Mexico children their daily lunch, and cut off federal Medicaid reimbursement – impacting 7 out of 10 nursing home residents, 55% of newborn births, and all health care providers in our state.” Heinrich continued, “Trump is clearly willing to pummel New Mexicans and the American economy for his twisted and deranged agenda and fragile ego. But the Constitution is clear: the president cannot override, delay, or rescind Congress’s funding laws. We passed these laws to help working families get ahead and put food on the table and create jobs New Mexicans can build their families around. I will fight like hell to undo this brazen, barbaric blockade from this wannabe dictator and his weird billionaire lackeys.” The Constitution explicitly gives Congress, not the president, the power of the purse. The president does not have the power to override spending laws that Congress has passed and the president has signed into law. Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the Constitution says: “No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law.” Fact sheets from the Senate and House Appropriations Committees detailing how presidents lack power to unilaterally override congressional spending laws and deny enacted funding to communities can be found here and here.

BREAKING: Biden has been asked to pick Jack Smith for the federal court so Trump can't fire him. Special Counsel Jack Smith can't be fired by Trump if he becomes a federal Judge.

DO IT JOE!!

Actually, I think the Veterans on here could use some legal advice. I wonder if we may have a case for patient abandonment. Should they try to close such an institution.

I think we could use a veteran support group. The Vietnam guys are all about 10 years older than me. I'm 66. I was AD 85 to 88. Do NOT tell me a vet who stepping on an IED has no hospital system! Fuck you bone spurs! If any vets. Male or

female have an opinion let's hear it! The Sgts usually know.

Quite a few made accounts here. But they hang at Twitter. I spend maybe 5 min a day on Twitter
Change produces anxiety. Trump is fucking with us. Bad!
They'll join us soon I hope.
