Get a grip Senator.
Let me remind you that you and the President both swore an oath to the constitution and also that the president is required to see that the laws are faithfully executed.
Trump firing the IGs was illegal-- remember a law of 2022 setting out a procedure for that?
Trump's EO to leave WHO was illegal. Remember our role there is mandated by Congress.
Ever heard of impoundment?
Checks and balances?
Trump's hold on federal funding also violates the laws and constitution.
And what did you have to say ?
"Just catching up with the fact that earlier today Susan Collins said about Trump's illegal attempt to seize spending power from Congress: "I appreciate that the administration did exempt Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security...""
No Senator, no, that's not good enough. No funds should have been stopped. Because stopping the funds is also outside the law.
So would you be grateful to a person who cut off a foot because they didn't chop off a leg?
Where's your integrity? Where's your respect for the rule of law?
In role you've angled for so long, the chair of the appropriations committee, are you going to smile and nod when President unconstitutionally deprives your committee of its role?
You should be ashamed:
The U.S. is now a laughing stock of the world. I expect my electeds to do their jobs and support the constitution not condone a lawless tyrant's cruel and illegal action
