How ‘bout this: Trump calls a news conference and announces via Executive Order:
“Effective immediately, all federal entities, except the military, have had their budgets reduced by 10%. If any agency or bureau head cannot meet this reduction without any decrease in services provided by their agency, they will be replaced with someone who can. Have a nice day.”
Fine.
President Trump can start with that $500 million to Planned Parenthood if he is serious.
Serious about reigning in foolish spending, and serious about protecting the lives of the most innocent of children.
Recall that dozens of Tomahawk missiles were thrust upon Syria for an alleged chemical attack that killed far, far fewer children than are murdered everyday in America by their own mothers.
Melania is reportedly pro-life, and they both profess to be Christians. If it’s true the President can use this power at his discretion, there is NO EXCUSE.
RE: President Trump can start with that $500 million to Planned Parenthood if he is serious.
A very nice thought.... but does the President have the authority to block funding for a group that was SPECIFICALLY FUNDED by Congress?
Just wanted to know....
Put a ten percent ‘sales’ tax on ALL money sent out of the United States...
It would seem so, according to the article you posted. Is the information you supplied accurate?
But if the President does not, or doesn’t even make an attempt, I’m sure any excuse will fly.
It’s alarming that barely a peep out of Congress or the WH about this. And after all that is known about the abortions and selling the body parts...
You think stopping several thousand murders per day of human beings is simply a ‘nice thought’?
I’m a little surprised.
RE: You think stopping several thousand murders per day of human beings is simply a nice thought?
OK, let me rephrase that “THAT WOULD BE GREAT!”.
BUILD THE WALL
RE: Put a ten percent sales tax on ALL money sent out of the United States...
How does that solve the problem of overspending? All you’re doing is PUTTING MORE MONEY INTO THE BUREAUCRAT’s COFFERS.

Pres. calls ‘em on their ILLEGAL expenditure (A1S8. Coax it as anti-5th\9th\10th\13th if you want to beat a dead horse)
Let’s see the Const. ‘crisis’ when the elephant is actually acknowledged
RE: BUILD THE WALL
I wonder, can Trump TAKE ALL OF the $500 Million Congress gave to Planned Parenthood and allocate this for part of the Wall instead?

Be careful what you wish for, a future President Kamala Harris (God forbid) could use the same powers to call expenditure for the Wall ILLEGAL.
Now yer talkin’!
Maybe I shouldn’t have put it that way.
Just that it’s a travesty how so many - and I mean government all the way down to the voter on the street - has become so desensitized and cavalier when it comes to abortion.
I don’t mean any disrespect.
How about stopping all care for illegals? That's a cut.
If illegals get sick the US will pay for a free ticket back to their home country and taxi fare to hellhole hospital closest to the airport.
We STOP spending money 'educating' their children AND we stop footing the bills for illegals to sit in our prison system.
If 'home' countries don't pay the bills we send them to take care of their citizens we put massive tariffs on all their goods coming into our country until the bills are paid.

IMO, it should be the LAST resort.
No welfare, no ‘free ride’ of ANY type (for ANYONE), and knowing the LAW will be upheld/enforced (esp. vs. govt employees of EVERY level 1st), the illegals would be returning voluntarily.
IIRC, Big Sis took $600 Million that was allocated to building The Wall during Obummer's first term and spent it elsewhere. She said that that was OK because the border was secure.
I must have missed it — who is Big Sis again?
