    Jeremy Lewin oversaw the destruction of USAID. It’s not clear he had the legal authority to do so.

    Ummm, no. It’s already been determined in court…they did not have authority to shut down any of those projects. That’s either for Congress to decide, or for Congress to appoint someone to decide. They did neither. Not only were they not consulted, at all…everything that DOGE cancelled was already approved by Congress and should not have been touched.

      I do really wish with all my heart that dems win, grow some balls and they let the courts throw the book at the culprits of this for the maximum sentence.

      Then again, I might wish for a million dollars and a laser unicorn, which is more plausible.
