OMB Memo: Review Wash DC and Blue States for De-Funding
"All federal agencies except the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense have been charged with responding to the request.
The memo states that this was a "data-gathering exercise" and "does not involve withholding funds, and therefore does not violate any court order.
California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and Washington, as well as Washington DC, were targeted by the order.
All of the states, except for Vermont, have a Democratic governor.
In a Michigan speech in mid-January, Dummkopf Trumpf brayed about his plans to suspend federal funding for sanctuary cities and states.
Trumpf has already repeatedly and nastily targeted blue states' federal funding since seizing power on 20 Jan 2025.
The diabolical Trumpf junta went after states that voted for former VPOTUS Kamala Harris in the 2024 election in a wave of funding cuts as punishment for the government shutdown last October. And in January, the junta hit five blue states with a $10 billion cut to childcare and social services funding, lying to the American people by citing alleged fraud concerns. HHS recently slashed $2bn in funding for substance abuse and mental health counseling."
Without doubt, Dummkopf Trumpf is just a petty, soulless, and terrible human being. Period.
As for me, I am a So Cal transplant and I think these temperatures are VERY rude, more suitable to curling up on the sofa, under a blanket and reading a good book. Just started reading The Boys of Riverside: A Deaf Football Team and a Quest for Glory. Once had a neighbor that taught at that school.
