Congress appropriated the money for transportation projects. If Congress wanted to tie it to immigration for some reason they could have, but they didn’t. A Transportation Secretary is not Congress.

The point that @ericswalwell.bsky.social is making is that President Trump knowingly shared faked "evidence" to try to convince the American people that Abrego García doesn't 𝗗𝗘𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗘 due process.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall.
I will never bow down.

Judge orders urgent release of DOGE records, citing ‘unprecedented’ power and ‘unusual secrecy’
It’s the first significant ruling in a growing legal push to pierce DOGE’s secretive veil, a decision that undercuts Musk’s repeated insistence about the operation’s transparency.

Cruelty is the point. He wants Zelensky to grovel for US support.
Stopping intelligence sharing with Ukraine after the WH was teasing a minerals deal announcement during the joint address last night is pointless and cruel.
Ukraine and the US both agree on the negotiation terms. A pause incentivizes Russia to be more aggressive, not seek peace.
