Sounds to me like there is $4 Trillion to cut from somewhere.

We could start by cutting Pelosi’s microphone feed. Nothing worth listening to ever comes out of that.
After that, we could completely cut funding to every alphabet agency in existence, starting with the Bureau of Land Management and immediately following up with the Department of Homeland Security. All their cool, expensive toys could be redirected to use by the Army.

May I suggest a "Governmental Reduction of Egregious Expenditures and Disbusments" program or for short a GREED program. In which for every 10 dollars that one of the departments or agencies come in under budget then 1 dollar will then be distributed evenly to all employees of that department or agency tax free. The cost savings would be amazing ounce the power of the GREED program is implemented.

Prolly not. They just keep adding new ones with catchy names that sound like they’ll actually do something or be beneficial to somebody. Yeah, themselves.

Theres no more cuts to make. Maybe in your bird-brain.
I offer the following, just for a start:
BLM - Disband
EPA - Diaband
BATF&E - drastically reduce size
DoE(education) - disband
Give me 10 minutes and I'll come up with a dozen more...

African Development FoundationThe African Development Foundation provides grants to community groups and small enterprises that benefit under-served and marginalized groups in Africa.
There are HUNDREDS of agencies like these that produce ABSOLUTELY nothing and spend MILLIONS upon MILLIONS just so they can say they "care"

All these agencies are DEFINITELY needed.!
Remember the word sinecure? Much used in English history and novels, it means a title paying money with absolutely no duties.
Well, we now have 535 Congresscritters, most of whom occupy sinecures. Then we have all their sycophants looking for a tit.
Look at these agencies, not as wasteful tax entities who do more harm than good (which thy are and do); rather, see them as cash cows with many tits.
Disgusting mental image, isn't it?--And SanFranNan is a milk maid and tit distributer for the cows.

I see the Small Animal Administration had its budget raised by 28% last year.I haven't the slightest doubt that they do fine work...and lots of it too.
To: mdittmar
I would like to offer a challenge to FReepers: let's take this list and start putting some numbers on it. How many people does it employ? What is its annual budget? What programs does it sponsor? And most importantly, WHO comprises these anonymous bureaucracies that leech our money with little or no accountability?
In other words, to start attacking "our" government, we must first know what -- and WHO -- it is we're attacking.
If people are interested, we can form a bang list or a group to coordinate the activities. What do you say?
