The Trump administration is contemplating even deeper cuts to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) budget than what’s already been reported by news outlets.
President Donald Trump’s budget proposal called for cutting EPA’s budget 25 percent, or $2 billion, and reducing the agency’s workforce 20 percent, or 3,000 employees. EPA global warming programs, grants to environmental groups and state grants are reportedly on the chopping block.
But now the White House is mulling even deeper cuts, a source familiar with budget talks told Axios. The source told Axios “[s]enior Trump officials consider the EPA the leading edge of the administration’s plans to deconstruct the administrative stat

The gift that keeps on giving...
A good deal of the Federal government/agencies have become an “employment for Libs/Dems/Progs” scheme. Trump needs to cut them back to the ‘quick’. Pronto.
Cut, baby, cut!
Great news. Go President Trump.
Wasn’t it opened with an Executive Order? Eliminate it.
OHH NO!!! This is just what Hitler did after was elected> /S
The “FRENCH National Hair-Cut” is the perfect cut.
Better still, shut the EPA down and give it over to the states.
Women, children, and old people hardest hit. That's 3 for 4, in one quote. He only missed 'minorities'.
Agreed. First get rid of their SWAT teams, and paramilitary Gestapo in all gubmint agencies. Why does the post office need a police force?
Turn control of the climate over to God.
WIN
Missed gays and trans for the grand slam
Regarding EPA & other matters, Trump is going to do for duct tape (keep Lib heads from exploding) what Obama did for gun sales.
We live right across from one of the hundreds if not thousands of small ultra liberal colleges in the country.The students do nothing all day but play with all their expensive toys all day...sailboats, a fleet of high end power boats, etc.. all night they party with booze and drugs. They have their own private concerts 20 times a year and professional fireworks shows all year.
Their parents pay the $80,000 a year for them to play in the Florida sun because they will slide into a government job in the federal or state EPA departments making a coll six figure income and a pension to die for.
If Trump can do what he wants with the EPA, this is one college that will eat itself from within.
Remember when the Gov. of Maine said that inner city drug dealers were coming to Maine to hook all the middle class girls on drugs?? All you have to do is park at the local 7/11 late on a Sat. night to see it all in action. Usually there are 3-4 scumbags with one or two college girls and the girls are all hopped up and a mess.
If their parents could see what all that money is really buying!!
Forty-five hundred employees would be a good start.
Hope He’ll also mull over deeper cuts to the UN
Give it to the states....
No need to as most states have their own nests of environmental regulators. Let them work off their own state budgets without Washington funneling more to them.
