I may have gotten ahead of myself on the actual budget cuts. Most of them are proposed by the administration but overruled by Congress.
But in general, the administration has been doing everything in the Executive Branch’s power to attack agencies that are not pro-business/pro-Trump, etc. Actions include not fill positions, when filling positions, adding political appointees with no relevant experience, overruling experts, etc.[/quote]
Huh. Imagine that. Yet you threw it out there as fact. Why is that? Where did you get the info from that made you feel comfortable enough to believe it, and claim it here?
Just curious. Fox News?[/quote]
I take back my earlier statement. The Trump administration did cut funding. Not sure why I couldn’t find it over the weekend.
I want to government to spend wisely too, but cutting discretionary funds for health isn’t going to do anything for the budget deficit. The biggest spending is in Medicare, SS, and Defense.[/quote]
More damning evidence. Trump disbanded NSC pandemic unit.
