He has tried every year to cut spending. He has a budget every year called the Penny Plan you might be familiar with it. Lucky to get 20 votes

We have the majority but there's No recission package (of DOGE cuts), no cuts, nothing for conservatives!

************

So what's the point of having DOGE if there's no serious intentions of using their findings to make deep cuts in spending? It appears that DOGE has been used as a political facade to make it appear that there will be cuts.

Does he know you need a budget before you can balance the budget?

And that you need regular order to produce an actual Fiscal Year budget?

How often strident have his demands been for a return to regular order (ending spending via endless CRs)?

“Fixing that mess is no longer possible by cutting a penny or two or three. It now requires six.”
