“imagine a contract approved under the Biden administration to facilitate scientific research with periodic disbursements to be made by the federal government. The Trump administration cannot cancel the contract, but if it fails to make payments, it gets to a similar enough result because the research program will collapse if the promised funding is not there—it won’t have the money needed to meet its own expenses.”
Or think Medicaid, SNAP, HUD, SSI…
@JGuz @heidilifeldman yeah , it about ⅔ of the way to get there. Let's not overthink things. All you really need to impound is immunity and direct control of the checkbook.
