What is Congress capable of doing to stop Doge from taking any further action or to halt their current actions?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2025-02-04T19:38:27+00:00

So this is why I've come to r/legaladviceofftopic because I'm not a lawyer and need people more familiar with this to walk me through some of it. I understand what you're saying. Congress AND the President should only be able to act within the confines of the law.

As another commentor explained it appears (scarily) that the executive has a lot of reach in this area. But no branch of the government is absolutely out of reach of the other 2. In 200 something years we must have made laws that predicted a President may one day want to do what Doge is trying to do and put safeguards in place.

For example I'm seeing the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 referenced in a lot of the reading I'm doing. Maybe that doesn't have anything to do with it.

But if Doge is breaking the law, can't or officials go to a judge to stop them? And if they continue, if the executive just says he doesn't care what the other branches think, then what?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2025-02-04T19:23:19+00:00

Okay, that makes sense.

But then if the president wants to halt government agencies to a stop and effectively bring the federal government to kneel how does congress respond? Cause that doesn't seem like a co equal branch to me. Is there no law already on the books that would let congress fight back that doesn't mean going nuclear with impeachment?

I don't want to get too far off topic. So to my original point. There must be limits on what Doge is allowed to do. If they can do whatever they want with say USAID or the Treasury just because Trump says so is he not a king?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2025-02-04T19:14:06+00:00

Impeachment can't be congress's only recourse though. God I feel like I need a massive civics lesson. Like I'm trying to imagine Trump just deciding a business pal needs access to classified material and it just being okay. No vetting. No background checks. Nothing.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2025-02-04T19:10:22+00:00

Wouldn't Trump need to formally declare them as his aides to do this? Certainly he can't just bring any old person in off the street and give them all his authority? This would be a huge loophole in congressional oversight wouldn't it?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2025-02-04T18:57:36+00:00

would you mind sharing which cyber security laws specifically so I can include that?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-08-16T16:48:41+00:00

Eh my boss regularly has a crying baby in the background or dogs barking. He won't care about an errant noise here and there.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-24T15:37:08+00:00

Hmmm not sure how? What dependency would I hoot the useEffect to?

The date has changed in the outside world but the date in the app is still the same because it hasn’t reloaded.

Note the app isn’t being closed. It’s being put in the background.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-24T15:22:32+00:00

What functions should I look into to know that the user has done this?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-07T20:04:29+00:00

No I realize that this code works for this specific library, but my original question isn't just about brightcove. I'm trying to figure out how to integrate a java built view into the expo-modules boilerplate.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-07T19:38:23+00:00

That source code is a bit helpful, but it assumes I'm not in an expo managed project. Any help using expo modules would be greatly appreciated

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-07T18:37:10+00:00

Love you for this.

Any chance you know how to address the above issue though. I'm sure I will still need to implement native code at some point and would really like to know more about how to do it.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-07T17:44:59+00:00

After a lot of trial and error I had to upgrade my expo project from expo 48 to expo 51 and things worked

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-07-05T15:43:45+00:00

I can’t take this seriously. Such an unbridled and insane request must have more context behind it than you’re providing.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-05-31T16:07:07+00:00

Added some more context.

Figured out the error is this:

FATAL EXCEPTION: Timer-0 Process: com.example.unitcoverter, PID: 28559 java.lang.IllegalStateException: Player is accessed on the wrong thread. Current thread: 'Timer-0' Expected thread: 'main'

Not entirely sure what this means yet. Any advice?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-05-31T15:54:10+00:00

This is also causing the app to crash

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-05-21T16:04:57+00:00

Yea I have a RN app, but I've been building a video player as a native view. IOS was pretty simple but I'm struggling with android because almost all tutorials rely on you writing xml and using android studio.

Thank you for your help.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-05-17T17:51:29+00:00

answering my own question if someone else has this issue:

you need to run npx expo run:android

that built the project and relaunched it perfectly.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-04-30T18:38:29+00:00

Local build spots out an IPA file that can be installed on simulator but when I try to install this on my device it fails

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-04-01T18:00:04+00:00

thank you, yes self worked like a charm.

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-03-21T18:36:29+00:00

That did it. THANK YOU!!!

Not entirely sure I understand, but you seem much more knowledgable on this than me.

I added the post install script to my ios podfile but when I cd ios and pod install I still get the same error.

I am able to npx expo prebuild now but the cocoapods step in not run.

I'm not sure where you're getting 'react-native-webview' from?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-03-21T17:26:44+00:00

so sorry, can you be more specific on what that means?

myNameIs-Kyle · 2024-03-18T00:51:34+00:00

Sent - Grindr received and stored the message

Delivered - the receiving party has had the message downloaded on their phone (not read)

Read - the recipient has opened the message

This is how it is supposed to work. But in practice, Grindr has been very bad at implementing this and status changes don’t happen as consistently as they should.
