Waste, fraud, abuse! Trump could not do this without the Republican congress! Remember that when you vote in the 2026 midterms!

That would provide a lot of badly-needed housing for those living on the streets; he would rather build jails and concentration camps.

Their profligate spending signals they see the USG as a piggy bank for themselves. Their behavior does not seem to be one where they care about the burden they’re placing on American taxpayers.
