Trump's abuse of authority was SO egregious that a federal judge has signaled he might sign a restraining order in spite of the fact that Trump reversed course.

The congress - not the president - is in charge of appropriations.

he's already rescinded...however, the fact remains the state never once looked backed thinking this is not a permanent thing...they keep spending like the spigot will never run dry or even falter..Cannonpointer » 8 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ I am not a tampon tim fan, but I am not a big government guy, either. And seizing allocated state funds is classic big government.
It is bad enough that federal funds all originate witht he states, but only find their way BACK to the states with strings attached. To withhold them from the states altogether - and without lessening any of the already considerable burdens the states face, often mandated by activist federal courts, is the opposite of respecting democratic institutions.
The closer to the people power is expressed, the more democratic that expression of power. The expression f power by the federal government is the very farthest - and therefore the least democratic - expression of power within the US. And make no mistake: dollars are power. Taking them away is taking away power. From the states and the people.
I do not believe that Trump has the authority to freeze funds allocated by Congress back to the states, and I believe he will lose on this issue in court.
Now, that's a first-blush take, based on your broad-strokes broadside. I've not heard about this until your OP. But it is a principle-based take. I don't care WHO the president is, and WHICH asshole governor is crying about it, I don't think that **** is right.
Not saying it isn't funny. Not saying I didn't get a chuckle. Just saying it ain't right.
Trump's good at shooting from the hip as a business man, however in gubment, there's channels he'll need to abide to...hopefully he's a quick Lerner...

The feds are somewhat at fault for what you write in the first paragraph. Use it or lose it grant funding keeps the state always ratcheting up the amount. Second, states have more bureaucratic hurdles to clear if they want to fund something internally whereas if you get a grant.. less work and then your residents do not complain about higher taxes and so on.

Yes, Congress, specifically the House, has the power to appropriate money.
The ADMINISTRATION is responsible for distribution. ALSO in the Constitution is the ability for the President to use discretionary power to determine if the appropriations are being spent according to the directive of Congress and NOT be used in an illegal or otherwise bad way that doesn't protect the funds of government- ie- are they getting what they asked for, is there corruption involved, etc.
And THIS is what Trump has done- cut off the funds UNTIL proper audits are done BEFORE the handouts are made!! PERFECTLY within the power of the President.

The federal government should have the LEAST of your tax dollars - not the most; and it should have the LEAST effect on your daily life.

White House response adds to confusion on federal funding freeze : NPR=15pxThe Office of Management and Budget has rescinded its call for a pause on payments for federal grants and other programs=15px, the White House announced on Wednesday. But the administration said that only the original memo calling for the freeze had been rescinded — not its effort to review federal spending.

When it comes to govt spending.. .lets stop with the right vs. wrong of it for just a second
Here is why it is inefficient. If you are a private business and you need more revenue. You produce more, get more funding, etc. If you need to cut staffing then there is no law in place usually stopping you from doing it. You might pay UI benefits but nothing stops you in absolute fashion. In a private business.. more revenue is a proxy for activity, production, etc. Government.. more revenue is not the same.
also, just because you work harder and smarter does not equal a pay raise in government. Your production does not translate to a bottom line. You are salaried and so get paid exactly the same whether you are killing it or doing nothing. This is one of the many reasons that less spending on govt is a good thing.

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.*Beekeeper » 6 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ And THIS is what Trump has done- cut off the funds UNTIL proper audits are done BEFORE the handouts are made!!

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?
