It's a drop in the ocean but it's a start!

You don’t buy the SFP doctrine that it’s too big, why try?’

Do you?

Did I see somewhere that Massie was a "NO" vote on this?

That USAID money is funding the terrorism in L.A. It needs to be ended in any iteration.

Agree....but this first step was needed as it take the direct funding to Dem NGOs and the Dem machine out of action.....makes the fight to go deeper in cuts easier.....

$6B in actual cuts is worth $6.6B next year.

There doesn’t need to be $1T in cuts for there to be meaningful changes in the deficit.

We could just do zero cuts to spending.


We could also not cut taxes since it doesn't get rid of all taxes.


Come on Stout.

Why the frick is our Republican Congress so screwed up? All we heard before the election was how transparent everything was going to be. No shady shite. But NO we can't even get a rescissions resolution to the floor without some kind of BS being added to it. Unbelievable.

Probably voted with his philosophical allies, the Democrats. He’s one of their more reliable supporters.

Thing is, PBS and NPR were actually worthwhile in the 80s and 90s.

Macneil/Lehrer was always solid.

It was good reporting, but it was always Democrat Party propaganda.

Thomas Massie is a clown who wants to grandstand. He doesn't want to pass anything.

We called it National Pinko Radio in the 80’s.

It has been leftist for years and all paid for with public funds.

They have said for the last 6 months that the ONLY thing they were focused on was the Big Beautiful Bill - After they get that passed then they were immediately getting onto the DOGE cuts and all of his EO's and so far, they are on the schedule that they have been promising for the past 6 months
