House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) hammered the Trump administration's new budget proposal on Thursday, framing the president's federal spending blueprint as an immoral demolition of government that's doomed in Congress.
"I don't see how this budget can survive the light of day," Pelosi said during a press briefing in the Capitol.
"This budget is really a slap in the face of the future."

"This is systemic deconstruction of the federal government."

"As low as my expectations have been, this budget really goes beyond," she said.
"While it may be a statement of President Trump's values, I hope it's not a statement of our colleagues' values."

It must not be that bad. She didn’t claim that the budget was going to kill children and the elderly.

Maybe that’s what she needs to get her to either shut up or get her attention.

If it wasn't a "slap in the face" for the dems and "systemic deconstruction of the federal government" it wouldn't be what we voted for.

Radio clips of her saying “poison our water and food”. Honestly, what a senile old plowed biotch.

Hey, Pug-Ugly, if you’re so worried about budget cuts, stick a crowbar in your personal wallet and help to fund some of your pet projects. I’m sick and tired of you and the other Congress-critters funding YOUR pet projects with MY money.
And that goes for Spineless Ryan as well!
