The authority to hold accountable any who violate the conditions of allocated funds and the withholding of funds with no such finding are entirely separate things.

And this is what he has no authority to do. There are fifty states. All fifty have a right to allocated funds. Withholding such funds EVEN IF FRAUD IS ALLEGED is walking on very thin ice. Withholding them on a whim is leaping headlong into even thinner ice.

Which is why Trump backed down. He knew he would lose. Because his actions were outside the scope of his authority.

Did you know that his powers are actually enumerated?

So is Congressional Powers being enumerated, but does that stop these assholes from passing laws they have NO POWER to create??

I could name a few.
Liberals are spoiled children, miserable, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic & useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats ~O'Rourke

The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.
