Vice President JD Vance is blatantly attacking the Constitution’s separation of powers after a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to fully fund the Supplemental Assistance Nutrition Program.
Speaking in the White House Thursday, Vance called the ruling “absurd,” because “you have a federal judge effectively telling us what we have to do in the midst of the Democrat government shutdown.”
“What we’d like to do is to have the Democrats open up the government, of course, then we can fund SNAP, and we can also do a lot of other good things for the American people,” Vance said. “But in the midst of a shutdown, we can’t have a federal court telling the president how he has to triage the situation.”
When Trump is gone, we’ll have a huge problem with JD “Just Dance” Vance. He’s even more committed to the cause (aka Yarvin, Thiel/Karp, Andreeson, Dark Enlightenment, Network State, etc.) and is more competent to carry out those actions.
Yeah, this isn’t just about not wanting to fund SNAP, this is about Vance trying to normalize unitary executive theory/directly attack separation of powers.
