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.

God his nickname game has dropped off. 2025 trump is a shadow of his former self, sad to see.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 3 days ago

Trump's decline in posting power is a clear sign of his declining health

People's Republic of New York will become self-sufficient.

greatest autarky in da world bay-bee

[-] [email protected] 39 points 3 days ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 30 points 3 days ago

Fucking threaten to seize his NYC properties and knock down every wall looking for hidden Epstein tapes. Bully that fucking coward right back lmao

We went from "Little lyin' Marco Rubio" to now he's big Marco in the white house, and everything sucks.

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

[-] [email protected] 30 points 3 days ago

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

Liddle

cringe Ya blew it Drumpf

[-] [email protected] 29 points 3 days ago

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

[-] [email protected] 36 points 3 days ago

Federal taxes (income, corporate, payroll, etc...) are levied directly on individuals & firms, so there's no mechanism for states to withhold funds.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

Salt deductions could right? Like if states and locals had to tax more than a standard deduction

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

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?

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago

They can withhold the funds from public employees’ paychecks though.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

What if they just... turn off the financial internet???

[-] [email protected] 27 points 3 days ago

am i bad at reading or does trumps tweet not actually threaten to withhold funding

[-] [email protected] 42 points 3 days ago

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

[-] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

“Liddle’ Communist” ?! That’s all you got? Damn, my big wet boy has fallen off.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

He should have called up Wisconcom to get some thermonuclear insults probably including "revisionist" to divide the leftists

[-] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago

Congrats Zohran on getting a nickname though

[-] [email protected] 16 points 3 days ago

Objectively one of Trump’s least-inspired nicknames. Maybe he really did just have a stroke.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Scoreboard is scoreboard, welcome to the big leagues
