This is not a singular issue. That’s still millions who prefer the US to be car centric, and they fight to keep it that way. Just move to Europe
Dammit, we were so close. He’s another sellout? Where are the progressive, yet pragmatic liberals at?
In retrospect. Hillary REALLY needed to win 2016. Trump got to appoint THREE justices in ONE term. Beyond lucky, that was the ball game. Without the 6-3 SCOTUS, trump most likely would’ve been in jail before the 2024 election, granted he probably wouldn’t have president either in this timeline and would’ve just kept being a corrupt celebrity.
But yeah, throwing Justices in jail isn’t an official act.
You just answered your own question, apart of his job (official acts). Throwing judges in jail, even if they deserve it, isn’t the president’s job. The judges would have to be properly investigated and prosecuted. Which if a judge is going down for corruption, might as well draw a target on Congress 😭.
Only was the president CAN throw them in jail by himself, is calling a national emergency and arresting judges off the bases they’re domestic terrorists. And he BETTER be able to prove it, or it’s curtains for him
“I’m not afraid - to throw a chair”
“It was from IKEA - so I don’t care”
“I’m bumping into people!”
Believe it or not, a lot of those protesters actually prefer pragmatic institutions, and will accept reform over radical change.
You’re arguing 2 different things than what was said prior. I’m talking about taxes. Taxes are legislative creation. Not executive. Congress decides deductions, rates and credits. Then once passed and signed by the president. The executive branch, under the president enforces them through the IRS and Treasury. They can’t change the actual tax rates. Only Congress can (hence why I always say, the senate is America’s biggest enemy).
You’re talking about Trump freezing or restricting funding. Which he can totally do. But that just it, freezing and restricting by EO. The money dosent move anywhere until Congress passes to cut it, which they did with the Big Bullshit Bill.
If Biden tried to move approved funding from military aid to let’s say, SNAP and housing. He had the courts getting in his way and would need everyone who works in the treasury and handling federal funds to be onboard. Because if Biden loses the court case (which he will), those who aided him in moving funds from 1 major program to another (you can do narrow moves) would be liable as well.
What Trump is doing is a classic case of delay until they run out of money to fight in court. Trump isn’t really cutting funding, he’s “reviewing it”. But he’s already lost a ton of cases anyways because the JUDGES aren’t buying it. If the Big Bullshit Bill didn’t pass, Trump’s entire budget plan would be cooked.
