Trump slammed Hochul for her endorsement of Mamdani in his bid for NYC mayor. He appeared to warn of withholding federal funds from New York as punishment.

Dictator Trump chastised female governor for endorsing a fellow Democrat. What did he say to himself when he shoves his favorite guys forward? But he uses taxpayer funds to reward his and withholds same for hers. Putz.

Withholding govt funds to punish a political endorsement is one of the most open and shut first amendment violations possible

Dobbs was clear cut in the sense that it directly overturned precedent, but the right to abortion is never stated directly in the constitution, while the right to speech is, so from the point of view of the text of the constitution this is much more clear cut than Dobbs 1/2

This court does not respect precedent, but I remain skeptical that they would so blatantly go against the text of the constitution, although they have made some odd rulings

Time will tell. I wouldn’t be too optimistic. They can bend the Constitution to their will. Only members of judiciary that get to make up the law. They can just misinterpret some old cases to declare it’s merely a fiscal decision not covered under 1A.
