Unilaterally withholding funds appropriated by Congress, unilaterally slashing budgets established by Congress, unilateral, indiscriminate mass firings that render an agency incapable of fulfilling its Congressional mandate, are all crimes.
They are violating constitutional separation of powers principles, the Take Care Clause, and various administrate laws in plain sight.
Every time we reference a cut, "reduction in capacity," recission of funds, or mass firing without noting it was done in violation of the Constitution and multiple laws, we are on their turf. Every time we fail to insert the modifier "illegal" or "unconstitutional" when discussing this or that action, the implicit message is that the 47 regime is doing things that are within its power to do and we are just upset about it -- politics as usual.
We must repeat over, and over, and over, and over. Make it a habit. Repeat until you are sick to death of hearing yourself say it.
And encourage electeds who believe in the rule of law to do the same.
If we don't learn to be repetitious on the basic realities of what they are doing, we are not climbing out of this
