It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

Ontario is currently experiencing a measles outbreak, with the vast majority of cases occurring in unvaccinated individuals who were eligible to receive both doses of the vaccine.

The measles vaccine is safe, free, widely available, and very effective.

OK, a roundup response to the "they won't follow the court orders" people.

First of all, you're wrong! The administration *is* following many of the court orders.

What's more, they're showing their understanding of the validity of court orders by seeking stays pending appeal when they lose.

I wrote section 230 to protect the little guys and the upstarts like Bluesky. Repealing section 230 only helps Meta, Musk, and Donald Trump.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk Are Making Their Social Security Lies a Reality — The Trump Administration canceled both contracts with only 1 state — Maine. After the media broke the story, SSA issued a press release that the cancellations were intentional, not accidental, and abruptly reversing course.

It doesn’t matter who does the study.

It doesn’t matter how rigorous the study is.

It doesn’t matter where the study is done.

If the study doesn’t confirm anti-vaxxers’ beliefs, they will disregard the results of the study.

Too many jokes being made about this. Never an excuse to drive impaired and this is a major city where options are available. Outrageous and of course, sad, as he likely won’t be penalized given current state of things.

Trump keeps spreading lies about Social Security.

What he isn't telling you is that he's actively trying to dismantle it — firing thousands of SSA employees and shuttering regional offices.

Why? To pave the way for privatization so Wall Street can gamble with our retirement.

I want to highlight that this is a straightforward lie. The Court imposed no penalty on taxpayers. This is money that was appropriated by Congress, and in a heavily earmarked way. And furthermore much of this total was already obligated/spent by the Executive Branch before Trump took office.
Justice Alito dissents, along with Thomas, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. Here is the final paragraph from the dissent.

Astonishing that four SCOTUS justices think the president can order the federal government to refuse to pay congressionally-appropriated funds to contractors for *work already completed.*

And in fact they’re “stunned” that anyone would disagree.
