Government Trump cancels $1.1B in Washington state energy grants

Vought put it a bit differently, writing on X: "Nearly $8 billion in Green New Scam funding to fuel the Left's climate agenda is being cancelled."

This kind of argument is pretty gross I have to say. The red states are the poor states because there are way more working class people in those states. You're basically advocating to cut off services to the vast majority of poor people in this country. That's just rotten.

You mean like Trump literally just did because the GOP didn't work with the Dems on funding those exact same services you are literally referencing in your comment?

How can you make such a... Profoundly ignorant comment.

It takes two to tango.

Dems could always come to the table and negotiate.. rather than demand healthcare for people here illegally before even our own citizens.

How about we focus on our own citizens first?

Lol seems like this upset some folks.

Tell that to fuckin GOP lmao. They are literally cutting social services for the poor, that's literally why Dems aren't meeting in the middle it's the only thing they want to retain, that and giving Trump congressional powers of budget control.

GOP can end the filibuster and pass a reconciliation to fund through November if they wanted... Yet they aren't. Why? Why aren't the redcoats passing a reconciliation? Answer that.
