LOL! You literally just linked to the exact thing that I referred to! Did you miss it? I said that Hansen was dumb enough to repeat his prediction, but bump the timeline to 2028! You literally just linked to Hansen saying that!

In 1998, he was wrong about 2008. But he doubled-down and said it'll be underwater in 2028. I criticized him for 1998 and you just linked me to him repeating it for 2028!

Why are your beliefs based on errors like this?

"No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law."

Yes that's true ...and totally irrelevant.

Trump is NOT drawing money from the treasury. He is performing the executive function - specifically in this case finding fraud.

This isn't in the presidential powers. Yes it is! It is literally the first sentence of section 1 of Article II of the constitution!

Saying, "I don't like this therefore it's not in his power" is logically identical to seeing Congress pass a law that you don't like and saying, "this isn't in Congress' power"

unlimited access to classified government computer systems.

What makes you think they have access to classified government computer systems, let alone unlimited access?

It's my understanding that classified data is on a completely separate network called SIPRNET[1] and that basic accounting data (e.g. USAID grant data) (a) isn't classified and (b) access to USAID data doesn't imply access to SIPRNET
