Thanks bitt.

[Red Badger]

I guess that’s why he has only $4 Billion.
How much does she have?....................

[9YearLurker]

Seems to be money that was allocated but not going to be spent anyway?

[SeekAndFind]

FROM THE WEB PAGE: On Tuesday, President Trump will send Congress a $15.4 billion recissions request, the largest ever using this authority.

$15.4 Billion is A DROP IN THE BUCKET. That isn’t even enough to fund the border wall project. If congress can’t even cut this, we’re doomed.

Two Thumbs Up!

Another MAGA moment! Time to undo all the Democrat spending.

[livius]

That’s great. Very rational, very defensible. Who is advising Trump on this? He or she is doing a great job and Trump has the guts to carry it out.

Indeed. I'd love to know who is behind the scenes here; the moves have been exceptionally well planned and paced.

[CottonBall]

Our former so-called leadership wanted the distruction of the United States. Trump is finally trying to turn that around! I just wish he didn’t have to fight Congress that every turn to do it. But I’m so glad he’s not giving up. A lesser man would have by now.

OK, so the following week, he sends ANOTHER $15B package.

Have his staff propose a rescission each week of some set of indefensible boondoggles. And then have the House and Senate have to go on record.

Here's what SHOULD be the rescission package: the unconstitutional 80% of the alphabet soup of federal departments, agencies, and bureaucracies which are prima facia illegal and corrupt NUKED.

ALL of these unconstitutional, useless, and harmful departments, agencies, and bureaucracies listed below need to be NUKED:

Unconstitutional Cabinet Bureaucracies:
Department of Health and Human Services ($1 TRILLION budget!!!)
Department of Energy
Department of Education
Department of Labor
Department of Agriculture
Department of Commerce
Department of Housing and Urban Development
Department of Transportation

All 67 agencies and bureaucracies of the unconstitutional fourth-branch fiefdom of the Independent Federal Administrative and Regulatory System, including:
EPA
FCC
FTC
SBA (Small Business Administration)

MAGA by RESTORING OUR FREE CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!

Now if Trump can put some teeth in the Paper Work Reduction Act, that would be another tool for him..................

Without McCain Mike Pence is the deciding vote. They cannot hide behind that lie

...

The largest ever and you still find a way to be negative about it.

RE: The largest ever and you still find a way to be negative about it.

Not negative — JUST BEING REALISTIC. History is on my side (unfortunately).

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

BEST Post of the Day!

"... “rescissions” require Congress to pass new legislation, ...

Whoa there! Exactly how is it possible to undue a circumcision?

Is this part of sex-change surgery?

[Delta 21]

Sorry, Johnny, Ol boy. Americans just aint gonna wait for you to live ner die. We just aint.

I thought McConnell already nixed this idea, saying he made a deal with the Democrats, and “you don’t go back on an agreement.”
