NY Times Moonbats Over Trump’s “Power Grab”

See, it was no problem when the Biden-Harris admin was grabbing power in telling schools they had to allow gender confused in women’s sports and bathrooms, that manufacturers had to make EVs which would be the only things consumers could purchase, that consumers could only purchase Approved washers, dryers, and other home appliances, and so much more

Trump’s Power Grab Defies G.O.P. Orthodoxy on Local Control

In the space of two weeks, President Trump threatened to halt a congestion pricing program intended to reduce traffic in New York City and intervened in California as it confronted ruinous fires, overruling local officials as he made decisions about how to manage the state’s complicated water system.

Well, how were the local officials doing with that water management in the People’s Republik of California?

He signed one executive order cutting off federal aid to elementary and high schools that allow transgender athletes to play in women’s sports, and another intended to end funding to medical institutions that use puberty blockers or hormones in gender-affirming treatments. On Thursday, his administration sued the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois in federal court, claiming that sanctuary laws are obstructing the federal government’s ability to enforce immigration policies.

Forcing cities to comply with federal law is now a power grab? I don’t remember the Times freaking out when Obama went after Arizona on SB1070. Not funding life altering medications for minors is a power grab? Well, if it is, I’m good with that.

For decades, the Republican Party, more than the Democratic Party, presented itself as an advocate of federalism, yielding authority and power to state and local governments. But this once-central tenet of Republican thought has seemingly been scrapped, with little debate, as Mr. Trump remakes the Republican Party in his name.

“Republicans believe in federalism, of deferring to the states and the government closest to the people,” said Karl Rove, who was a senior adviser to President George W. Bush. “Not clear how much he shares that view.”

If they want those federal dollars then there are conditions. Perhaps, if Democrats want to do crazy things, then the power and scope of the federal government should be reduced back to where it should be, including all that money.

The president’s attempt to dictate actions by the states — particularly the blue states — is the latest instance in which Mr. Trump has scrambled what remains of Republican orthodoxy. He has forced the party to abandon some of its ideological foundations on questions of foreign policy, deficit spending and, increasingly, respecting the rights of states to govern themselves and resist federal intervention.

That’s not what’s really going on, but, they really do not like Trump returning sanity to federal policy. Blowing up Democrat ideology. Liberal tears taste great.

    New York Times was another legacy media outlet being supported by the Biden administration. So naturally, they are anti-Trump. They are paid to be.

  2. Doom and Gloom says:

    Oh, and let’s not forget Trump is playing 4D chess with the left and the MSM.

    Simple…….ELON MUSK…..

    The left has lost their shit over Musk and DOGE that they forgot Trump is HITLER. They are now calling Musk Hitler and a NAZI.

    Then there is Hegseth, Tulsi and RFKjr. Oh yeah we have to lose our minds over them too cause they are going after our favorite buddies……CHICKS WITH DICKS, BIG PHARMA and BIG INSURANCE. Democrats….The defenders of Sleaze and Corpo Rats.

    Then Trump throws out the Gaza strip thing to take the lefts entire focus over what he’s doing at home as the left now must scramble to defend their terrorist brothers in arms. In fact, I would surmise that the left wants all of Hamas to move to the USA because there ain’t a single Arab country that would take those animals. Every time they have been run out of Palestine, they have caused civil war in their host country.

    So in short….As soon as the left catches up to Panama, Greenland and Gaza he will want to anex Russia and the left might just suffer the vapors.

      It is also funny how many Democrats feel a strong connection to USAID and “foreign aid”. Yet no connection at all to helping Americans.

      I haven’t seen even a single democrat say “oh, certainly THAT program in (fill in place) was over the top and should be cut”. Not one Democrat. Not one program. Not one dollar. Almost as if the money was eventually going into their own pockets and the USAID grants were just a billing mechanism.

        The Good Professor continues to deteriorate. They are not a professor of mathematics, obviously.

        Over two-thirds of government spending goes to Americans as Medicare, Social Security, income assistance and Medicaid, programs started and supported by liberal Democrats, not conservative Republcuns and MAGAts.

        The King Donut/Elon/Vought new Big Lie is that the US had no controls on spending. Let us know if you need help when they cut your Medicare and Social Security.

        Condoms to Hamas is a lie, but a good headline. USAID does much more good than bad, dumbasses. But it makes good headlines – WINNING!!

        USAID is a tiny, but easy target – helping lazy, amoral blacks in Africa with AIDS, malaria, guinea worm, cholera, measles; brownn “illegals” in waiting in Colombia, Peru, Venezuela and Central America; countering Russian influence in Armenia and Georgia (Donut & Elon favor Russia); black girls education and school lunches in Africa; removing land mines in Cambodia; supporting clinics in Africa and Syria; conservation efforts in Brazil rain forests; coffee and cacao instead of cocaine in Peru;

        USAID budget is about 0.5% of spending.

    If you’re mad at Elon for proving politicians are stealing our tax money… you’re a special kind of stupid.

    Rimjob stupid that is.

    • Elwood P Dowd says:

      Musky has proved no such thing. The Pissant is a special kind of dishonest.

      “USAID spent $100 MILLION on condoms for Hamas. Or was it the Taliban?” Doesn’t matter, both are big lies.

      When TrumpElon comes for you, who will support you?

    Mr Teach relies on the falsehoods from King Donut: how were the local officials doing with that water management in the People’s Republik of California

    They were doing just fine. King Donut made NO positive difference. He seeks headlines, many that he creates, not results. He ended up dumping irrigation water needed next drought.

    As he told an aide, “Each day in power is like a TV sitcom where by the end of every episode I vanquish my foes”. Headlines!!

    SACRAMENTO, California — California farmers — some of President Donald Trump’s staunchest supporters in the deep blue state — are sticking with him, even after he wasted their water.

    At least publicly, the farmers and their Republican allies are brushing off the president’s abrupt move last week to dump more than 2 billion gallons of their irrigation water from reservoirs in the name of aiding Los Angeles wildfires — even though the fires were already contained and the water couldn’t have made it to Los Angeles anyway.

    King Donut would never let the truth ruin an ‘episode’ of his sitcom.

    Dems calling for insurrection.
    Oh my…

    McIver then demanded, “God d— it shut down the Senate. We are at war! Any time a person can pay $250 million into a campaign and they’ve been given access to the Department of Treasury in the United States of America, we are at war!”
