概要
Can a president freeze federal funding to states that disagree with him? On January 6, 2026, Trump froze $10 billion to five blue states. Three days later, a federal judge blocked it.
In this episode, we break down the constitutional battle over federal spending power, examine precedents from Obama, Trump's first term, and Biden, and explain why conservatives should be very careful about the powers they're cheering today.
Topics covered:
- Article 1 Section 8: Who controls federal money
- Congress or President?
- Obama's Medicaid expansion case (Supreme Court ruled "too coercive")
- Trump's 2017 sanctuary city funding fight
- Biden's COVID vaccine mandate (what courts allowed vs blocked)
- Why this funding freeze is more extreme than past examples
- 5 principles conservatives should demand from ANY president
The precedents we set today will be used against us tomorrow.
Constitutional analysis for principled conservatives.
