EOs allow for the changing of wording in govt regs. Sorry you overlooked that part



Since it was a change (versus a creation) what were these funds referred to prior to being called "Foreign Government Deposit Funds?"

No, I just said I wouldn't try to reason with you.

Also codified

RobbBobb - if I'm reading your posts correctly, Trump's treasury has the right to (essentially) confiscate the oil, sell it, and put those funds wherever it pleases and this is incontestable (legally). Does Trump/treasury have the right to spend those funds however it sees fit?

Why are conservatives trying to reason and convince everyone so much? Aren’t you all about freedom? Do you really believe people are bad if they’re not as conservative as you are? I’ll admit I’m pretty middle on most things and hate both far ends of the spectrum of the political world.

You’re also not on subject you’re going on about conservatism in a thread where a congressmen is wrong about oil and acknowledged Congress is responsible for debt. Something I’d think conservatives would care about.


Again you don't understand this because:

1. You are clearly not very bright. No offense, but it's true.

2. You can only see this as a populist. Which means, to you, the #1 most important thing about the original tweet is who said it and shouting them down. No matter what they said.

To someone who doesn't play by the cardinal rule of Us vs Them, I'm more interested (by a long shot) in the substance of the claim, not who made it.

I don't know whether it's unconstitutional for Trump to do this or not. It sounds like it very well might be.

Now to you, that doesn't make any difference at all. You don't care whether it's constitutional or not. All you care about is that someone said Trump shouldn't be able to do something he wants to do.

Just like it doesn't make any difference to me who said it or that it's Trump who might not get to do something he wants to do if it is unconstitutional and the constitution wins out. And you know why? Because if the constitution prevents Trump for doing it, it also prevents Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsome or anybody else from doing it.

For some reason you populists cannot see down the road three years.

On that we agree.



Matter of fact, I pretty much think if you (not you personally) downvote habitually here, you probably also suck dick. It's the gayest thing still allowed in public.

It is in the forfeiture law, that 3 cabinet heads, AG, Treasury, and the Post Office can transfer seized funds to various agencies

So if the Treasury, say, purchases Greenland, Congress can only vote to stop them

Last time we purchased a territory, and got pushback, their effort failed by 2 votes. Jefferson won in a landslide against them the very next year, and that national party (Federalist) was erased from history soon after

I dont see the Congress making that same mistake

No, I never said I couldn't.

I said I wouldn't.

And you won't either. For some reason your small IQ thinks it's funny when I won't but not when you won't.

Makes sense...when you're stupid you are also obviously easily amused.

There are silver linings in everything I guess.

Bad? No.

Gullible and to some degree retarded? Yes.

Just reciprocate how others treat me.

For having such a small iq and so stupid you sure do seem bothered by what I post on the internet. Gotta be better things to do, right?

Do you think Trump is personally selling this oil to line his pockets that are already full?

I have no idea. I'm learning about all of this just now, in this thread and RobbBobb, who seems to be pretty knowledgeable, mentioned Greenland - which would be pretty clever IMO.

No

But he wants the money so that he can go to the American people and show them which members in Congress are globalists, and claim they are threatening Americans safety. That the money is there, an agreement has been reached, but they are the problem

Its a win/win for him

Get rid of some RINOs and still get Greenland via Congressional approval
