Donald Trump’s administration is threatening to withdraw federal funding for unemployment assistance in all 50 states as part of the president’s nationwide campaign against “fraud” in government spending.
In a letter to the governors of 53 states and territories, acting Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling warned that the federal government would use “every available tool” to combat “waste, fraud and abuse” within state-run unemployment insurance programs, including “withholding administrative funds from states” for the first time in history.
There is no single national program for unemployment support, though the federal government partners with state agencies to support temporary financial assistance to out-of-work Americans. Nearly 2 million people are currently receiving those benefits, while roughly 229,000 people are filing initial jobless claims every week, according to the Labor Department.



Armed revolution results in U.S. military drone strikes on blue states. I am not joking. This is Pete Hegseth’s handpicked military; they’re waiting for a revolution to crush.
I’m not necessarily saying a revolution should or shouldn’t happen, but you should absolutely be aware of the circumstances on topics like these. Plus, people have tried to attack the president. So many times that it’s seemed for a while that these are selected shooters. They’ve all failed thus far.
I mean, Trump’s war of choice in Iran was an unmitigated disaster. I can’t imagine how poorly they would respond to domestic guerrilla warfare
Horror. Abject horror would be the result.
If it’s like Iran, it looks like he’d try to fight this weaker force, lose anyways, and then push the cost on all Americans, which would just grow the insurgency. His incompetence extends to military strategy.
Except Iran actually has a military to fight back, not to mention support from China regarding drone supply. I think you’re vastly overestimating the average American’s capability for war. Especially when compared to the U.S. military.
