"Mr. Trumps budget blueprint which is expected to be central to his address to Congress on Tuesday night sets up a striking clash with the House speaker, Paul D. Ryan, who has made a career out of pressing difficult truths on federal spending. For years, Mr. Ryan has maintained that to tame the budget deficit without tax increases and prevent draconian cuts to federal programs, Congress must be willing to change, and cut, the programs that spend the most money Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid."

Paul Rayn is a POS. Those programs he wants to cut are programs that AMERICANS have been paying into for decades, and are ENTITLED to its benefits, THESE JACKASS RIGHTWING ASSHOLES want to STEAL those benefits from the AMERICAN PEOPLE. They need to be stopped

(42,641 posts)I am old enough to remember the many stories about waste and fraud in the war budget.
Those type of stories vanished years ago. Either there is no more waste and fraud, or.....................the US corporate media, where war profiteers own the media, has decided that fraud can only be committed by welfare recipients and the millions of illegal voters that Trump claimed to have evidence of.
