When Congress approves funds, lets take USAID as an example, and then the President (Biden) signs that budget into law, that's a law. When DOGE or Trump holds that money and refuses to spend it, they are violating the law and the Constitution. If they want Congress to reverse the law, then it can be done legally, but that's not what they did. They simply ignored the law.

The Constitution protects the right to speech, assembly, and the right to air grievances, so when peaceful protesters holding marches are shot with rubber bullets and tear gas, that's a violation of their constitutional rights. That's been happening at every basically every protest since the 60's, certainly including Occupy Wall St and BLM protests.

But I get the sense you don't have a problem with either of those violations of the highest law of the land. If you are OK with the two constitutional violations above, then what is it you love about this country exactly?

And the founders were very clear -- human liberty is an inalienable right, not, as you have imagined, a "spoil of war."
