I guess they saw the avalanche of legal challenges and decided better. I wonder if we'll see this come back with more of a targeted approach.
The courts are our only defense against this lunacy.
Part of those legal challenges was the assertion that Trump was breaking the law. Congress already approved and authorized the spend, as is their authority. The executive branch doesn't have the authority to withhold funding once authorized by Congress. Trump got impeached over a similar issue in his first term and he's right back at it week one of his second term?
Hanlon's Razor implores us to not attribute malice to things which are easily by explained by ignorance or stupidity, but since Trump has been here before it's getting hard to use ignorance as an excuse.
