To be pedantic, Congress (also the President if you accept his claim that he can simply withhold funds already approved by Congress - that's the constitutional question) can, with majority votes in both Houses, block new funding for CAHSR. "Claw back" of funds already-appropriated and obligated is also possible, but more difficult.

If CA wants to keep building HSR, using non-federal funds, it can, regardless of Trumen bluster. Obviously, it's unlikely that things will be completed, even on just the Valley segment, in any reasonable timeframe with state-only funds.

  Time for you to educate yourself (if you can) on the executive order and the Wong Kim Ark case, instead of regurgitating the lamestream media. Kraut 01-27-2025 - 17:21

  And yet, those two exclusions have yet to be adjudicated, contrary to your opinion (or should I say a copy and paste). They eventually will by the Supreme Court Kraut 01-27-2025 - 18:08
