Trump using rare power to revoke expenditure with bipartisan approval to aid immigrant services
Donald Trump is canceling nearly $1bn in spending approved by Congress, the White House announced on Friday, using a rare and contested power to axe funding for immigrant services and diversity-focused initiatives.
Trump’s office of management and budget described the funding cut as focused on “the most harmful government spending”.
Most of the cuts are focused on services for immigrants, including non-profits that serve refugees and unaccompanied minors accused of being in the country illegally. The administration says the funds are no longer necessary because illegal border crossings have diminished considerably.
If murder is illegal then why are you dead? Boom, checkmate.
I mean, if the authorities don’t arrest/charge then functionally yes. This demented old pedo has legit killed hundreds of thousands through inaction during Covid and killed millions globally by letting that dipshit Musk gut USAID. He’s a murderer on par with any other fascist but will he see consequences?
Well, yeah, murder or sexual abuse against minors is illegal, yet you see the rich and powerful engage in these things constantly without consequence.
The law is words on paper, enforcement is what makes law reality, otherwise it’s just a suggestion.
If you deny someone their life-saving medication you might go to jail for it. If a rich person does denies life-saving medication to someone because it makes them a few dollars more, they get praised for it.
