I think you and the rest of MAGA should be able to find an increased number of vacant skyscrapers to live in very soon.

I thought the Democrats told us it was poor form to politicize the debt ceiling.

This will get even more interesting rather quickly.

This is a drop in the bucket of the things that are going to get very interesting soon.

To answer the question in the title---
With your money as all government programs are financed.

The only problem is that what you are referring to is not money.

I'm thinking the monies will come from what Elon ascertains as wasteful programs that he's cutting funding off to.

Seriously, the OP's question could be rephrased as, where will the government get the funds for a 'stop spending funds' fund.

It'll never happen. Trump clearly doesn't understand the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. As usual, his ignorance is on full display. He would need Congress' help to do what he's proposing; and if he tried to do an end run around them you'd see more and more lawsuits like we have already. He's making more empty promises and trying to buy goodwill. There seems to be no limit to this guy's dishonesty and to people's gullibility.

But he's our savior! Appointed by God himself to clean up the corruption in our government! How could HE do any wrong?!

I only read the title of the video, and all I can say is no, they're not coming. If you believe this I think I may have misjudged your intelligence level.

Exactly.
People think that those numbers are connected to paper dollars, they are not.

Several people who told me 6 years ago that we would not be getting any stimulus checks are still telling me we will not be getting any stimulus checks. When will they ever learn? I have already received several stimulus checks since they told me it would never happen. For some reason, they all refuse to give me their stimulus check they said would never happen.

The Brief

- Approximately 1 million taxpayers were designated this tax-filing season to receive unclaimed rebate checks that date back to the pandemic.
- Separately, Elon Musk has indicated he will discuss with Trump whether any savings in federal government spending could be refunded to taxpayers.
- No widespread stimulus checks are pending for 2025."

I highlighted in red the part that should quiet your latest "chicken little" posting.... I'm pretty sure it won't... but it should....
