I'd rather be an independent nation known as Megasota, where we swallow up the Dakotas, Wisconsin, and Iowa, and we create our own great leftist paradise

Still won't change a god damn thing, sadly.

All I'm saying is a little political violence against the Nazi regime in power should be a-okay.

The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants, according to a copy of a new memo obtained by The Washington Post, after the administration’s move to halt spending earlier this week provoked a backlash.

In a memo dated Wednesday and distributed to federal agencies, Matthew J. Vaeth, acting director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, states that OMB memorandum M-25-13 “is rescinded.” That order, issued Monday, instructed federal agencies to “temporarily pause all activities related to obligations or disbursement of all federal financial assistance.”

The original White House order freezing federal grants, which became public on Monday, caused mass chaos and confusion across Washington, appearing to imperil government programs that fund schools, provide housing and ensure low-income Americans have access to health care. States reported issues accessing funds under Medicaid, and even as of Wednesday, public housing authorities reported being locked out of their funding portal. White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that assistance for individuals would not be affected.

Has anyone also seen the accusation that Trump himself isn't even writing these executive orders, but using AI algorithms to have it ghostwritten by a Project 25 member.
