About 800 billion more and he’ll have balanced the federal budget.
About half done.

A trillion is such an unbelievable amount, most people have no clue. 1,000 billion in fraud, waste and abuse of the taxpayers.

Stumbled on to the Bret Baier interview. Very thought provoking. Took up the whole hour.

Forgive me if I keep my skeptical hat on.
1 Trillion represents 1/7th of the federal budget. I am all for cutting spending, but I am highly skeptical in 3 months they found 1/7 of the entire federal budget to cut.
To: Red Badger
Fantastic, though were it not for lawfare, it would be much more. Only 21 trillion more waste to find to get us out of this hole (or several trillion more to be made from tariffs and billionaire wanna be citizens).
To: Red Badger
Have they got into the defense budget at all yet?
Man i hope he is correct.

Oh, the ultimate authority Reuters...
I think I’ll believe Elon, that benefits will not be cut to actual Americans entitled to those benefits. Reuters has an agenda.

I think they already found the money.
There is just so much waste in so many different grants, contracts etc that it will take time to get rid of it.

He will make recommendations on what to cut. It is up to the Executive branch to follow through on the workforce reductions as well as the departments that the Executive branch controls. The remainder will be up to Congress to follow through on implementing.
I fully expect to see hundreds of Circuit Court injunctions to be issued and a wishy-washy Congress to punt on the making any permanent changes. They will crumble like they always do when the “Your going to kill Grandma” or “They want to eliminate Social Security!” ads start coming out.
