Time for the U.S. Treasury to “boycott” Washington. The Kenyan never put up with any states who didn’t follow his orders.

“Time for the U.S. Treasury to “boycott” Washington. The Kenyan never put up with any states who didn’t follow his orders.”

As I recall, Dems held states hostage starting in the 70’s by threatening to withhold road funding if a state didn’t set (AND ENFORCE) 55mph limits, seat belt usage, a 21 year old drinking age, and so on. They actually had Fed employees on Interstate bridges in states taking pictures and doing statistics on speeds.

Now, all of a sudden*, this is completely wrong and illegal.

*that Republicans are in power.
