trump just tweeted he may cut funding for schools that don't open before election




In Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and many other countries, SCHOOLS ARE OPEN WITH NO PROBLEMS. The Dems think it would be bad for them politically if U.S. schools open before the November Election, but is important for the children & families. May cut off funding if not open!

So many things he is taking control over. And we can't seem to stop him. He can just arbitrarily change funding amounts and there's nothing anyone can do? WTF.

Like FEMA's charter calls for them to help families pay for burials in a national emergency. Covid was declared a national emergency. But trump told FEMA not to. AOC introduced a bill to force them. I need to look... Last I saw it got sent to committee. Btw, FEMA got $45 b in Covid relief money.

And as someone upstream said, he can't.

Strange new plank to run on - defunding schools. Probably go over real well.

When a child or their family gets the virus , then sued for criminal neglect. Maybe a class action against trump would be in order.
