“Who wants to tell them?
By continuing 2024 appropriations into 2025 with a “Continuing Resolution,” Congress just locked in a large portion of the Biden agenda for the first nine months of Trump’s presidency.”

Just get rid of all corporate welfare (John Stossel reported on how huge it was years and years ago, so it’s well over 400 billion a year now.
End the $200 billion a year or so going to “migrants” brought into the US.
Lower military spending by 200-300 billion a year by making Europe defend themselves and not have the US do this so they can shift the money saved to their social welfare programs.
Make Japan, Singapore, Australia, NZ, Taiwan, and other Asian Pacific allies shift more of their spending to military to help the US, saving the US at least amother 100 billion plus.

He is an idiot (most likely purposely lying) and a big fat liar. Doge is reporting over 140 Billion dollars in savings so far. It will exceed 600 billion this year.
It does not matter what congress appropriates. The cabinet secretaries don’t have to spend all the appropriated. They can keep vast majority of DOGE savings in place. It used to be any money left over (not spent) near the end of the budget year would cause the secretaries to go on a massive spending spree so their budgets would not be smaller the next year. Guess what you stupid A$$ Rand, they are not going to do that this time. Trump would fire them in a heartbeat.
So, it does not matter what the budget is. Over 500 billion dollars less will be spent, maybe up to a trillion, DOGE’s goal. So, shut you big fat lying mouth up Randy Pually or tell the American people the truth!
