EPA cuts off IRA solar money already under contract
Recipients of the $7 billion Solar For All program were locked out of an online portal that’s used to distribute federal funding.

EPA is holding funds from approved under contract federal grants for solar industry. Pretty sure this is illegal from the contract side as well as the executive branch refusing to allow funds earmarked by congress.

Legality is relative with the current administration.
Is it legal? No
Do we care? No
Can we do what we want and tie things up in the courts until either the other side quits or time runs out on this? Yes
Let's flipping go then!

This sh!t pisses me off. I knew it was coming, and here it is.
POTUS doesn't give a flying F about any rules, congress won't do anything about it and the courts take years to rule on anything and ultimatelyits up to SCOTUS and they are mostpy heritage members that believe POTUS is king. And then what happens if he ignores court rulings? Nothing, nothing happens other than they tell him again and he ignores it again.
Hope everyone is happy they elected a freaking criminal to be president and then gave him congress all because he lied about getting grocery prices down.
The get to troll the libs and that's worth it got some.
It’s literally been his strategy, his whole life.
Tennessee SB6002/HB6001 would make it a felony to VOTE for sanctuary policies regarding immigration.
From the official summary (emphasis added by me)
Present law prohibits state and local governmental entities and officials from adopting or enacting a sanctuary policy. A state or local governmental entity that adopts or enacts a sanctuary policy is ineligible to enter into a grant contract with the department of economic and community development until the sanctuary policy is repealed, rescinded, or otherwise no longer in effect. This bill creates a Class E felony, punishable by a sentence of imprisonment not less than one year nor more than six years and a possible fine not to exceed $3,000, or both, if a person violates such prohibitions. Additionally, this bill provides that each official, in their capacity as a member of the governing body of a local government, who votes in the affirmative to adopt a sanctuary policy is also in violation.
This bill passed the Tennessee Senate today. It criminalizes the voting for sanctuary policies by elected officials.
This is nuts.

Trump Administration’s Halt of CDC’s Weekly Scientific Report Stalls Bird Flu Studies - KFF Health News
An unprecedented freeze on the agency’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report sparks new concerns about political meddling in science.

Hiding the start of the next potential epidemic.
Yep, that's what I kept thinking. I guarantee there were a whole lotta conservatives jokingly throwing up Nazi salutes last week. Ya know, it's funny now because Elon did it! We're just throwing our hearts out!

FCC is opening investigations into PBS and NPR. Two very a-political groups. The claim is the stations are running advertisements vs broadcast underwriting announcements.
Pledged control over news and media, this is step 1 to limiting opposing views.

When RFK Jr. was presented with the science on vaccines he said needed to see, he dismissed it
The man who hopes to be President Donald Trump’s health secretary said he needed to see data showing vaccines are safe, but when an influential Republican senator did so, he dismissed it.
apnews.com
Our next head of Health and Human Services. Still claiming vaccines aren't safe when grilled in Senate confirmation. Not sure why he isn't just lying like the rest of them do. If he lies the GOP can claim ignorance later on when nothing that was promised happens.

VP Vance makes confirmation predictions for Gabbard, Patel and RFK, Jr: 'Have to fight for each one'
Vice President JD Vance discusses the Senate confirmation hearings for three of President Donald Trump's most controversial nominees on 'Hannity.'
Vice President JD Vance delivered blunt advice to Republican senators considering voting against President Donald Trump’s nominees to lead key three-letter agencies: "You don't get to make these decisions."
...
He praised Senate Republicans for being "freethinking and "independent" but argued the commander-in-chief is the one who gets to decide who he wants in his Cabinet. WTF: (you can be independent freethinkers, just can´t act on it...)
"...The president has made his selections and the advice and consent power of the United States Senate should not be used to block people because you have one policy disagreement on one issue," Vance told Hannity Thursday. "You don't get to make these decisions. President Trump gets to make these decisions, and he already has."
