Why is trump withholding $7 billion from schools? Is there a good reason?

Reality and you aren’t friends, are they.

“Decisions have not yet been made concerning submissions and awards for this upcoming academic year,” the statement reads. “Accordingly, the Department will not be issuing Grant Award Notifications obligating funds for these programs on July 1 prior to completing that review. The Department remains committed to ensuring taxpayer resources are spent in accordance with the President’s priorities and the Department’s statutory responsibilities.”

Yeah there's a reason. Stevie Wonder could see it. The White Trash Maga crowd is anti intellectual and anti education. Just as the Heritage Foundation propaganda mill trained them to be. Instead of science they "believe" in superstition and magic. Let the dumbphucks burn in their own ignorance.

Trump is increasing the national debt by trillions while delivering the biggest tax cut for the rich.. possibly ever? Point is that they have been trying to find everything and anything they can cut to try justify their tax cut for the rich.

[FunkyMonkee]

You spelled, Biden, wrong.

[Syntosi]

@FunkyMonkee Sorry, I can count. If the "Big Beautiful Bill" passes in a state somewhat similar to what it is currently then combined with Trumps first term he will be responsible for about 1/3rd of USA's entire debt.. and Trump still has over 3 more years to increase those numbers.

Calling Trump and economic disaster is not fair for the economic disaster to be compared to Trump.

CNN math doesn't work.

[Syntosi]

@FunkyMonkee Yes, yes. If you want to have a fist fight against math then do it in the corner where you are not bothering anyone else.

[FunkyMonkee]

We have these things on this planet we call, "facts". Maybe you'd be interested in using them at some point in the future.

[Syntosi]

@FunkyMonkee You mean like this website here?
https://www.self.inc/info/us-debt-by-president/

Combined with the "big beautiful bill" projecting a national debt increase of around 3 trillion dollars at least which when added to Trumps original 8 trillion dollar debt increase makes 11 trillion. Considering the US debt reached about 36 trillion by the start of 2025, a third of that is 12 trillions.

In other words, even with pessimistic numbers (Trump is responsible for way more than this) its very easy to prove that Trump is responsible for about 1/3rd of current US debt and climbing.

Now then. Where is your "facts"?

@FunkyMonkee Really? Over an hour long? Yepp, dont care. Besides, I can probably guess what you are going to try object to. Namely, the 3 trillion dollar debt increase from the "Big Beautiful Bill". Well, sucks to be you because I got plenty of sources to support the deficit such as:
https://www.cbo.gov/publication/61486

Its also quite funny to me that you yap about "facts" and then supply a video of some random loser online who provides opinions.

[FunkyMonkee]

You don't have time for that? But, you'll waste hours listening to CNN?
So, just watch the first 40:00. Most of it you don't even have to watch, just listen to it. Quite a bit of it is your own cult leaders talking directly to you!
Yep, I KNOW you don't care!! You didn't have to tell me!
Probably because THERE ISN'T ONE!!
Sucks to be you because your sources are LYING TO YOU!!!
A "random loser" who has studied history and KNOWS what the fuck he's talking about!!

[Syntosi]

@FunkyMonkee Ha! You think I listen to CNN? Behave yourself.

Like seriously? Why do you like this video? I am 11 minutes in and watching at x2 speed and I just can't stomach the stupid. Are you trying to show this video simply because you can't speak for yourself? Are you impressed by this guys weak takes and attempts at humor? As far as I can tell this guy is just a random loser online speaking his opinions.

If you want to contrast that with for example the link I send you then keep in mind that the whole job of the "Congressional Budget Office" is to look at legislation that lawmakers vote on and calculate the economic impact they would have. They are a government organization created to without bias provide clarity for lawmakers and the public so that we can better understand what goes on in congress.

But sure, I am supposed to trust some random idiot online over the actual experts because that is what "facts" is supposedly.

He is getting DEI, anti semetism and men out of women's sports out of our schools. U Penn just revoked Lia Thomas' swimming awards so it is working.

They are trying to put an end to waste, fraud and abuse.
