This whole move by the left to stop the freeze and review process could totally backfire on them. If it goes up the courts and gets a ruling in favor of Trump it becomes settled law.
They shoild have just let this play out and see what happens. The panic was a product of Democrats and the left wing media.
And I have a feeling that if they would have left well enough alone that monies would have been reviewed and released for the most needed issues. While questionable ones would have been stopped.
The panic stems from the trump administration announcing a catastrophic effort while simultaneously not providing clarity as to what it is they are actually going to do.
It would be like saying that you're going to throw out thanksgiving dinner without clarifying if you mean a specific dish, or the whole shabang.
Cmon' man every project is considered is considered an important project and a necessity by the left. It's doesn't matter if the money is being wasted by the principles involved or misused. Just the fact that it's going out is all that matters.
Not every grant is worthy of being issued. These things need heavy reviews and those receiving them need heavy review and oversight.
Our spending has got to be gotten under control. And rhe people of America have gotten too used to government handouts. It's time to get control of the spending. There are worthy causes out there for sure. But this country is so heavily in debt that it's ridiculous. And it's time to stop the, "let's spend the money and figure out if it was a good investment later" strategy.
The fact that everyone agrees that there are worthy programs and necessities out there, that tells us that if we want to cut spending, we have to be careful about how that's done.
It's really that simple, doing a blanket freeze on everything would be absolutely catastrophic for our country. There would be so many people losing their jobs that it would just be ridiculous.
And so the Trump administration has to provide clarity on how exactly they're going to Target these particular grants or loans, the administration can't simply freeze everything and figure it out later, that's just going to end up destroying everything. Everything not just the federal government but down to the level of the private sector that receives those funds as well, in addition to State positions that distribute the funds as well, everyone from the top down would be disastrously impacted.
It would be like if a person had cancer, and you have a doctor performing surgery, and instead of the doctor going and removing the cancer, the doctor instead just takes a shotgun and threatens to shoot a big chunk of the person's body out to get rid of the cancer.
These kinds of things take precision and Care, you can't just go in and knock a whole section of someone's body out.
And so naturally, the person panics and says, what do you mean you're going to blow this whole section of my body out?
And Trump says "well, we only want to remove the parts that fit our agenda".
Well, what is that supposed to mean?
No further clarity is given. It's up to people's imaginations.
