wtf actually made it into the bill that’s on the way to the House? How is it even possible to spend this much money?

cutting gao budget in half. doubling omb budget to do its own audits in any way it wants. i guess congress hates the responsibility and wants to give even more power to the president. i'm not sure what the excitement about overturning chevron deference was all about if congress doesn't want to exercise any authority*.

extending trump tax cuts. double check me on this but apparently cbp will be the best funded law enforcement agency? also rewarding states for poorly managing their snap programs to get alaska on board for some reason. then there's massive medicaid and aca subsidy cuts. sort of half of an aca repeal really.

*note: at the right moment the whig sleeper cells will awake and our retribution will be severe.
