Congressional Magat Calls Out Trump For Cutting Funds to His District [View all]

Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.), who represents a purple district in the Omaha area, told the Atlantic that Trump's executive order was "alarming," particularly for his constituents, who were counting on $73 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to upgrade Omaha's airport.

"You just can’t determine what laws you want to execute and what you don’t," Bacon said, adding that executive orders from presidents representing both parties have "gotten out of hand."

"“You can’t change the law,” he added. “I think Republicans should stay true to that notion.”

See I posted this and didn't attack any Democrats.

Maybe Democrats should just lay back and let Republicans attack Trump's illegal EO's.
