The question should be why is the id verification not robust?

But the Dem from MA says Trump is being all illegal and stuff.

Trump got Democrats to defend corruption and fraud.

I mean they're already at about $100B and it's been a few weeks. It seems doable.

That being said, where exactly do the "savings" go? I haven't heard much about that, but does it get reallocated to other things? Does it (hopefully) go to reducing our debt?

We’ll have to get the outgo smaller then the ingo so we can turn the deficit around. Until we do that they will have to keep cutting.

Didn’t Elon say yesterday when he had his son in the Oval Office that the goal was to balance the budget because right now the interest on the debt is like a trillion dollars a year?

Hopefully a tax refund so I can pay for eggs because the Dems murdered millions of chickens in hopes of creating a crisis.

Remember some clown started a thread a few months ago with the what are you going to cut screeching.

The point was to agree with Nancy Pelosi stating the fed gov was cut to the bone

Unless Congress passes an actual budget with actual cuts, then a CR will just restore funding for all this bullshite over again... The CR is the reason that this waste, fraud, and abuse has gone on unabated...

They can't go anywhere until we have a budget surplus. Right now we are still in a deficit.

If we had more robust Id verification when voting, things would be very different.

And an excellent question.

The most robust form of ID could be provided, free of charge, by the government to every US citizen. That would completely deflate the "but muh people can't afford ID" argument, and we'd still be saving record-amounts of coin.

You nuccas really need to improve your thread titles.

"Within our grasp" implies almost there.

Charlie Kirk does not use those words in the tweet. Homie in the video did not use those words as far as I can recall.

A better (more accurate) thread title would be "If we implement strict ID verification across federal, state, and local health services we could save $1 trillion"

Thanks.

The sliding post is then, "but muh, people cannot take off work to go get the ID" or some other nonsense.

We're talking about a couple of relatively easy system changes that aren't even that hard.

Federal issued ID which can be administered by the state and used for voting. Sound great.
