    As a New Yorker I would like to see that orange fascist try. I can almost guarantee that if Zohran organizes a workers militia today itll have tens of thousands of volunteers tomorrow. I myself would happily throw arms with federal pigs.

      Yanking funding from state and local agencies is almost trivial, thanks to the DOGE infestation of the US Treasury. Quite literally a matter of button-clicks.

      The dream of the Unitary Executive under Bush, has finally been realized under Trump 2. Congress simply could not stop handing the Executive branch more and more authority, both implicit and explicit, until now they’re effectively superfluous.

      The one upside is that - given the state of Trump’s BBLB - there may not be much funding left to pull from NYC by the time they’re done gutting the domestic budget.

        No. It started with the Brooks Brothers Riot.
