You know, and that's obviously really bad because normally with these resolutions, you're just sort of like continuing the funding, right? But this is not a normal continuing resolution. This is... It is very, very overdramatic to do the thing that a lot of people have been doing, which is comparing it to the enabling acts that the Nazis passed. Yeah, it's not.

But, but, comma, this is a completely unhinged continuing resolution. There has never been a continuing resolution like this ever. And it is, genuinely, it is another step down the path of... effectively having Trump running the government as a dictator by sort of pure fiat.

And, okay, you hear me say this, and you think this is an exaggeration, but what this continuing resolution actually does is normally in one of these resolutions, Congress tells the executive how parts of the budget are supposed to be sent, right? It does allocations. It'll be like, okay, so there's this money for this thing, and it goes to this purpose, and you have to spend it here.

This continuing resolution says, Just like doesn't do that. Yeah. And the goal of it is just to let Trump do whatever the fuck he wants with the money by not actually giving out congressional things to specifically allocate it.

So this is more of a thing we've been seeing more and more, which is Congress specifically like delegating and abandoning its constitutional power to be the people who set the budget and just handing it over to the executive. So there can be a single unitary executive that runs the entire government.

Yeah. You know, you could argue about whether the American Revolution was about the king being able to set taxes because that was technically a thing controlled by the British Parliament. But, like, is, for example, the issue that, like, the Revolution of 1789 was fought over, right? Like, that there shouldn't be a single unitary executive who gets to fucking set the budget?

No, fuck him.

No, fuck him.

No, fuck him.

not like the kind of the point of the thing is to not just have one older dude in charge like like that that is the english way yeah and this is this is the fundamental like principles upon which the liberal notion of democracy is based and i use liberal in like the 1700s early 1800s sense of the word liberal right which is that like you believe in democracy yeah
