He's already doing this to states that didn't give him their votes. My city is rushing to complete road work projects en masse because funding is being cut.
No one's gonna stop'em. Just have to sit around waiting for it all to collapse in on itself.

America is trying to do international sanctioning against its own provinces.
New York to get IMF loans when?
NYC needs Juche to deal with the National Sanctions
It's funny liberals think the "rules" matter
Liberals think the law is a paranormal entity that exerts magical powers on the state
Its only dawning on them like when that the Epstein thing will come to nothing.
a "hey! you can't do that" moment. spending clause from congress, anti-coercion principle, 1stA, 14thA blah blah blah
People's Republic of New York will become self-sufficient.
greatest autarky in da world bay-bee
It’s still an impeachable offense, but we have a government full of absolute cowards and sycophants who are as guilty as Individual 1. They refuse to do their job.
God his nickname game has dropped off. 2025 trump is a shadow of his former self, sad to see.
Trump's decline in posting power is a clear sign of his declining health
Liddle'
a question as old as the boomers: what do boomers think the apostrophe means??
Thank you for your attention to this matter'
The Apos Trophy was given to the millennial kid with the most Participation Trophies
We went from "Little lyin' Marco Rubio" to now he's big Marco in the white house, and everything sucks.
Liddle
Ya blew it Drumpf
Fucking threaten to seize his NYC properties and knock down every wall looking for hidden Epstein tapes. Bully that fucking coward right back lmao
Wouldn't this just fuck the federal government since like, what, California, NY and Texas are the only states paying into the federal government more than they take
Federal taxes (income, corporate, payroll, etc...) are levied directly on individuals & firms, so there's no mechanism for states to withhold funds.
Salt deductions could right? Like if states and locals had to tax more than a standard deduction
So like charge everyone a "fuck the feds" tax that equals their tax bill to the IRS, tell everyone to SALT deduct them, and then just refund them all the money from that tax?
Actually I just looked it up it's capped at 40k and goes back to 10k in 2030. Before 2018 it was unlimited so a state could have theoretically done something like that, or used the tax money to fund socialized medicine, or 'nationalize' industry.
They can withhold the funds from public employees’ paychecks though.
What if they just... turn off the financial internet???
I'm pretty sure NY takes in less federal money than it sends out in taxes. NY could theoretically just cut the Federal government off in retaliation. Hocul and ny dems aren't cool enough for that of course
Someone else mentioned this, but IRS doesn't take money from states, it taxes individuals and corporations directly. There's really nothing the state can do to disrupt this outside of something outlandish like making a law that all CA businesses are obligated to defy federal tax law and stop all federal tax withholding. Which obviously would get slapped down legally
am i bad at reading or does trumps tweet not actually threaten to withhold funding
First of all, it's a TRUTH not a tweet.
Secondly he complains about good money after bad. Pretty clear allusion to me, but ymmv
Congrats Zohran on getting a nickname though
Objectively one of Trump’s least-inspired nicknames. Maybe he really did just have a stroke.
Scoreboard is scoreboard, welcome to the big leagues
“Liddle’ Communist” ?! That’s all you got? Damn, my big wet boy has fallen off.
He should have called up Wisconcom to get some thermonuclear insults probably including "revisionist" to divide the leftists
