    The article is misleading, Biden is actually explicitly not ignoring this law that is from 2019: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jun/30/joe-biden-forced-build-donald-trumps-border-wall/

    TLDR: This is a 2019 law passed by Congress during the baby hands administration. The Biden administration has been pretty careful not to overstep other branches of government(I think as a direct response to how flagrantly and harmfully baby hands used executive action), and while Biden returned wall money taken from the DoD, the rest of the wall money was explicitly designated by Congress for building the border wall in 2019 and Congress will not cancel that legislative order(wall funds), despite Biden asking Congress to cancel the 2019 wall funds law since arriving in office in 2020.

    This post is misleading, the money is being legally used for a legislatively required purpose and any federal laws are being broken legislatively by Congress as a result of baby hands in 2019, not the Biden administration.

        Yup. It’s too bad that something functioning correctly doesn’t mean it’s functioning well.

          26 laws waived for Biden to build Trump’s wall for him, and we won’t help the poor because [stack of excuses].

            Wow, you even misunderstood the TLDR.

            Congress is building this wall from a baby hands law in 2019 that broke those federal laws, Biden tried to stop the wall legally, Congress told him no, and to your last point he just canceled 90 billion dollars of debt for a poor people.

            You could be more wrong, but it would be hard to imagine how.

              Alright man enough with the “baby hands” stuff. It was slightly humerus the first time I read it but after seeing you post it for the third time it just makes you look sad now. We get it. You don’t like him. You look like a conservative who repeats “sleepy Joe” unironically.

              Edit: holy shit you made the same comment 10 times. Nah, I’m good.

                As soon as diaper don stops calling names, he’ll stop receiving the same treatment.

                Oh, and yeah a lot of people were asking why. I just reposted the answer to everybody who asked why this was happening.

                    Don’t worry about it, I don’t think anyone’s paying attention to you anyway.

              Mod hat:

              Hey, there are a millions of ways of making fun of Trump without body shaming. Body shaming affects everyone, and Trump will not see your comment.

                I completely agree that name calling should be off the table, but as long as baby hands continues to body shame and use pejorative nicknames on public forums, I have no problem with equal treatment.

                I don’t see the benefits of giving special treatment to abhorrent people.

                  Okay, well, youre going to be banned if you keep doing it. “But he started it” isnt a valid reason to body shame here.

                    My argument is not that he started it, my argument is that donnie consistently attacks other people via body shaming and there’s no reason why he should not wear the clothes he’s fashioned.

                    Is diaper don okay? Cheeto, is it specifically body shaming that makes you uncomfortable?

                    If you just like donny and want to use that mod power to protect him, that’s your prerogative, I’m just trying to get the rules clear, because Donnie in no way has earned the respect of his proper name.
