Alrighty now. You (HHS/Trump) pay back all the Native American Nations for all you stole from them and then you can exempt them. While you’re at it, pay back all the Social Security funds you ripped off and then we can chat. You are not going to ratfk yet ANOTHER group to grift money out of the taxpayers for your ‘buddies’. Not happening.

The root of this may well be the President’s understanding of governance, which is that “I’m the boss.” Like a naive 7-year-old, he and those he attracts to public service simplisticaly view the “rule of law” as “the boss makes the laws and everyone else should shut up.” In reality, we have a dense and complex web of constitution, legislation and regulatory law that is independent of any single authority, but exists and changes through constant planning, justification and negotiation in which legislatures and courts have a major role. You may, as many libertarians do, decry the legal fabric of the administrative state, but to be ignorant of it is a recipe for constant train-wrecks, just as we have seen.
