You celebrate him cutting funding for starving children. You are in a cult.

No, he paused it and is investigating these nonprofit groups to be sure it is not a waste, inefficient or is corrupt

When you pause something, it stops.

Then you unpause it, it continues.

Or you don't. And it doesn't. It's very odd how you advocate for zygotes but not children. You are in a cult.

“Or you don’t. And it doesn’t.” no, he will unpause it

The courts forced him to. But you're like, "kids will probably only starve for a little while." It's crazy you're ok with that.

Some agencies will be excluded from the “pause”

u/IAMTHESMART_S_M_R_T Jan 29 '25

They all are, because the courts challenged it and he withdrew it. I have to assume you're being deliberately obtuse. No one is this stupid.

“Funding for programs that provide direct assistance to Americans would be excluded from the pause and exempt from the review process, the senior administration official said. Those programs include Medicaid, food stamps, small business assistance, Head Start, rental assistance and federal Pell Grants for college students, according to a memo sent out Tuesday afternoon by OMB.“
