Bill Glahn:
Federal district court judges are considering orders to compel Pres. Trump to violate the section of the constitution reprinted above. They want him to “draw from the treasury” to pay for food stamps, in the absence of an appropriation passed by Congress, in violation of his oath of office.
The real problem with all of this lies in the fact that there IS no money in the treasury. America is more than $38 trillion (with a “t”) in debt.
To pay for the food stamps needed for the next month to feed the 1 in every 8 residents who are incapable of feeding themselves, the government must borrow billions of dollars from the Chinese, or from as-of-yet unborn generations of Americans.
This can’t go on.
