Sen. Lindsey GRAHAM (Budget Chairman) calls for a recission package ?!
X ^ | March 6 | Lindsey Graham

Posted on 03/06/2025 6:52:59 AM PST by RandFan

@LindseyGrahamSC

This afternoon I had an excellent meeting with @elonmusk and my @SenateGOP colleagues.

It is now time for the White House to put together a rescissions package so that Congress can turn DOGE’s work product into law and save money for the American people.

Elon seemed to be very enthusiastic over the prospect of a rescissions package – I couldn’t agree more.

WOAH Freepers this is big. Rand is going to get his way it seems. A vote to make the cuts PERM.

I know some of you are skeptical but it has to happen to make them outlive this Admin. otherwise the "cuts" will soon be restored.

This is what Rand has been calling for ...

GO CONGRESS!

Sounds like someone's got something on LG that isn't going to go away. Like he's in prison and just became someone's bitch.

This ought to be entertaining.

My SC relatives are as liberal as you can get. I made the mistake of saying they don’t like any Republicans. I stepped on a rake. Not so they said. They like Graham and Haley.

The way things are going, I think Graham will lose their support and gain mine.

It’s a start.

The CBO deficit projection for FY2025 is $1.9 trillion.

It’d be nice if we can make Congress a part time gig with very little incentive for crooks and careerists to serve themselves.

Graham is a chameleon. He changes stripes whichever way the wind is blowing.

Now, I will give him credit in that he stood by Trump when Zelensky pulled his nonsense at the White House. But, if things get tough for Trump and he has a chance to align himself with someone else, he will.

It sounds like President Trump got a copy of the Linda blackmail files.

Winning!

Lesbian Lindsey always butters up and fools the base every time he’s up for reelection! And South Carolina’s always fall for it and vote this POS back to the Senate. I think we are done with these renegades who constantly stab us in the back. It is time to primary this lesbian. It is time for him to go….. PERIOD!

Yup—in twelve years we get the budget deficit to zero.

Then we can start working on the national debt with budget surpluses.

As long as we make sure the Democrats turn into Whigs this is totally doable.

Don’t you fret about a thing.

A PopUp Judge will declare recission illegal and put out a restraining order against it.

He’s also a DEEP state agent

So when he says this something is afoot. Highly interesting.

Not just cuts but the process needs to be changed so never again can the thieves use NGO’s to funnel money back to themselves. Even if people were punished for what they’ve done so far it won’t be long until they use a work around again unless the whole process makes it impossible.

Maybe the judge can put a freeze on the Linda blackmail file as well.

Lol.

On another thread I posted-—

Yes, it sounds good that Congress has discovered rescission.

But, I remain skeptic that Congress will actually do anything. MAGA has been stabbed in the back by Congress too many times for us to trust them.

I am reminded how the Senate Republicans tried to enact Lankford’s new Immigration Law and the failure of that law resulted in Trump being harrassed by the Democrats during the campaign.

When the only thing needed to deal with the immigration problem was, as Trump said on Tuesday, “All we really needed was a new President!!!!”

“Lesbian Lindsey always butters up and fools the base every time he’s up for reelection! And South Carolina’s always fall for it and vote this POS back to the Senate.”

Yep. Some of the posts on here on funny. They sound like abused wives who gets a little attention from their abusive husband. Graham is up for reelection. It’s all about political expediency. Nothing more, nothing less.
