    that will be up t congress, like al the other chit trump is trying to do..you know, the branch that funds programs and tells th executive branch to operate them as congress intended in the funding bill.

    a basic civics lesson about what each branch of gubmntis supposed to do might go a long way to helping MAGA understand why all this is illegal

    i wonder how much of maga could pass a citizenship test loaded with questions about what potus can and can't legally do/

    Someone really needs to create that true false test and put it out there

    So what you're saying is that we should give a lot of weight to the opinion of a cartoonist with apparently little knowledge of government or economics?

    Scott was smart enough to tweet that I was his favorite Russia booster. He has a degree in economics and got his MBA from UC Berkeley. Based on the test he took to get into the MBA program (94%) his IQ could be ballparked at ~138.5. I might raise that a tad based on the success of Dilbert. Scott is a trained hypnotist and knows a little bit about psychology. I think Scott is smart enough to recognize evil when he sees it.

    Through his experience with the Gates Foundation, he probably knows a little bit about this.

    Trump supporters won't obviously don't care.

    I didn't think you had a credible article to support the mistruths and conspiracy theories you're trying to spread.

    Must feel good saying things that you cannot substantiate? Clue me in please, I wouldn't know.

    “The world's richest man has been involved in the deaths of the world's poorest children."

    I’d love for him to go in and meet the children that have now been infected with HIV because he cut that money,” he said.”


    Gates, 69, on Thursday announced plans to spend virtually his entire fortune over the next 20 years, during which time he estimates his foundation will spend more than $200bn on global health, development and education against $100bn over the previous 25 years.”

    Noting the rating of "funn" maybe it's just me but I fail to find any humor in the withdrawal of food and medical assistance to people and especially children residing in Third World countries which would likely result in their deaths but then I'm not a supporter of President Trump and co-President Musk.

    ^ This.

    Some Trump supporters think it's funny that there will be this huge amount of increased death and suffering. Others just pretend that it isn't happening, and that their actions didn't contribute to it. Pretty sad either way.

    Scott Adams should probably stick to what he does well, drawing cartoons not analyzing governmental policies.

    It is a weird phenomenon that started around the time of the COVID pandemic, but it is amazing. What happened that Americans became so proud of announcing their ignorance and lauding themselves for not being educated?
