   Seems interesting, the question as always is: why now?

     my feeling is that the texas thing means they may feel they don't have to defer to the feds anymore.
     
     At some point, unless the feds reassert authority strongly, this will happen.

     @CatLord I don't buy it. this is processy shit that noone cares about.
     
     it's the same as people saying "biden 'pausing' the LNG is him getting back at Texas" .. it's too much of a just-because.

     @CatLord @Dan_Hulson This isn't how bureaucracies work though. Whenever you have joint official statements with seals, it means there were a million little underlings redlining and doing drafts and nonsense.
     
     If there is something underneath moving multiple state agencies, it means something much bigger than just electioneering.

     @sickburnbro @SKracket why is Abbott just now deciding 'enough is enough' and not any time in the last 3 years that this has been happening? why wait until right after the guy he endorsed for President just annihilated his opponents in 2 major primaries?

     @sickburnbro @Dan_Hulson Well, there is always truth in the theatre, otherwise it wouldn't work. I imagine that many govt departments in the US are fed up with the federal govt making the entire country into a disaster. But why is it happening now? IDK but my attitude is: we shall see.

     @CatLord @Dan_Hulson yes, I have no idea either. But I am trying to point out things that I think convey new and different information.
     
     I think that it is the departments of agriculture is interesting as well. I think reading their letter which is at the link is useful as well. They have a very classically worded bureaucratic letter, which tells me things. They also make sure to mention near the top that they can sue people and they can sue people that aren't directly in agriculture.

     @EssentialUtinsil @SKracket correct. But he doesn't have the authorization to do whatever what he wants with the vast majority of that. "discretionary" is the key word here, and moving 100 million dollars shows intention.

     @EssentialUtinsil @SKracket yes, but you're acting like a governor has any say in a massive part of that. He doesn't. This is why I'm emphasizing "discretionary" - every agency would like to increase their budget and use that $100 million.

     @sickburnbro @SKracket 100 million is ~.07% of their yearly spending. even in a fiscally conservative state, no politician gives a fuck about 100 million, especially when it's a huge bang-for-buck political ploy.

     @sickburnbro @EssentialUtinsil @SKracket This was something I didn’t know until recently but yes, 99% of the money that goes into the government already has a bucket, by law, that it’s going to go into. Only at the Federal level can they freely raid buckets of money to spend on unrelated crap.

     @EssentialUtinsil @sickburnbro @SKracket It typically does as computers make it easy to put “hard walls” up on governmental funds, and, it’s not as if those parties are disinterested in their dollars. Now, after the fact there is waste to be sure, but that’s road people wasting it road people, education on education, etc., but not, say, road people wasting education‘s money. This is why California is prone to horrific budget issues because almost all the money they get is gone before it’s even collected.

     @EvilSandmich @EssentialUtinsil @SKracket there are tons of ways to sneak money around, and I'm sure that this $100 million is an example of that kind of redirection, but what it shows is effort and a plan that was set in motion not just 6 months ago.

     @sickburnbro The feds blinked, now other are going to try and counter the feds as well.
     
     People here fixate on the ideological motivations of the parties involved and the obvious jewish control of things but forget that there are parties here who may not share our beliefs but have an interest in opposing the agenda and will act if the situation is right for them.
