It's beginning.

I'm tempted to suggest: Deport and move on.

Also, you ought to mention this account has no comments, no participation, just this. Awfully suspicious and LOW ENERGY.

If you dont trust his opinions on running the country then what the fuck did you vote for him for? Fuck these 90 person committees that cost us millions of fucking dollars every year so we can get “expert opinions” on how every policy will effect non binary trans gendered 8 year old people of color. Nope. What the president says goes. We dont like it, we kick his ass out every 4 years.

I'm suspicious this post is answered by what's currently on the front page.

There's no citations, only speculation, without any idea why Trump is doing this.

I assume the OP is referring to this article (archive link because fuck Vox), but it's a lot less worrisome than he/she/it is making it out to be. In theory, this is probably not unconstitutional because the POTUS does have quite a bit of leeway with regard to actually executing the law. In fact, POTUS' argument seems to be applying the Take Care Clause of the Constitution to mean that he has direct oversight of how these funds are distributed, rather than the inspector general.

I'm suspicious that the reason POTUS is doing this is because he simply doesn't trust the left to be misappropriating these funds such that they disappear into the DNC coffers. Given the 2008 stimulus, Shovel Ready Jobs™, and all the nonsense that started with Solyndra and all the other "lol solar" companies, I think this is apropos of him. I don't trust the left.

Otherwise, let the courts decide.

Disagree. He's doing it this way because the addition of that little nugget into the bill was all about The Congress usurping MORE of the powers of the Executive Branch. It already IS within POTUS'S power as the President to make those decisions. Congress... ( Liberal Democrat Leftist Hacks) dont like it because they hate him and everything about him. Nancy would dearly LOVE to be President. She is a power hungry mad women. BTW..THIS was the official WH explanation, and the Tweet from Potus explaining that he intended to continue in this manner, as he has always done since day 1. What Your saying is this: We can trust him to administer to an $80 Trillion dollar US economy day in and day out, but, we cant allow him to preside over Nancy's $2 Trillion bill procedes because SHE wants to control it for her own ends.

It's just like a married couple gettig a $100,000 dollar windfall and each of them have a diametrically different agandas for the use of those funds and neither of them agrees at all with the others plans. In this scenario the Husband has plans to benifit the family and household. The Wife has plans to enrich every illegal alien she can find.

This is a good point. The inspector general falls under the executive branch, correct? Therefore he/she reports to POTUS. Therefore this would just be cutting out the middleman.

Given the bullshit media reports on this and their weak arguments, there's nothing here.
