Newt Gingrich last night on FOX said that obama can issue executive orders ..... but only Congress can authorize funding to carry them out.

Usually no money, means no action can be taken, ie orders to ATF or whoever to register guns, seize them or whatever

So, will our GOP stalwarts in Congress flex their own power, or not?

He won’t need extra money - just use the money his ATF/Homeland Security, FBI, etc., already have. He wants this so much, he would shut down any other programs they had going to get this one done.

WEl FUBO has “hinted” that he’s just going to ignore the debt ceiling and continue to spend, so we will see!
