Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders condemned Trumpās order to freeze all federal loans and grants, calling it a ādangerous move towards authoritarianismā and āblatantly unconstitutional.ā
The directive, exempting Social Security and Medicare, is expected to impact universities, nonprofits, food assistance programs, health centers, and disabled veterans.
Sanders emphasized that Congress holds the āpower of the purseā and urged Americans to oppose the order.
Attorneys general are preparing legal challenges to overturn the freeze.
There is nothing that dumpy is doing that cannot be undone or re-done by a future president.
Relying on a president that changes every 4-8 years to make overwhelming changes is going to cause a lot of issues. If we thought government was dysfunctional before, just wait until itās maliciously dysfunctional.
I think all the suffering brought on by his stupid, selfish, cruel decisions canāt just be āfixedā by the next president.
The system is broken and will never work. Itās a downward spiral until the next collapse. Obviously iām cynical but unfortunately my cynicism is rarely wrong :\
