Don't reroute, just don't spend it. We are broke and whatever we spend this on is borrowed money that we will be paying interest on.

This is the answer. None of this is being done to find better ways to spend money - it’s to cut unnecessary spending all together.

That guy looks like he could be the last person that John Holmes gave AIDS to.

If these mother frickers find a way to keep this spending going I think it’s all over. There will be no way to save it.

Which funds, specifically?

And it seems like Reps Biggs and Tiffany should be up on deck to see if they or their family has benefited from USAID funds.

I guess they don't realize they don't have either the House or the Senate. Maybe they will impeach Trump next?

On one hand I know that not spending but rather paying down debt will save interest and is a great idea but I also believe that using to extract illegal aliens from the country will save multitudes of dollars in the long run.

That's what DOGE is for, they could extract what the better use of that money would be.

I dont know if I am 100% in favor of this.

Better government efficiency is what most people wanted. That means doing more with less. All they are doing here is keeping the cash pot the same, just reallocating where it goes.

I mean, is that the wrong way of looking at this?
