FedGov Spent More in 2025

[TheCount]

Despite adding $195 billion in new taxes and supposed DOGE cuts... the deficit wasn't any smaller.

Who could have guessed that none of the money would actually be "saved?"

You mean the 9 billion in huge cuts wasn't enough to make a difference?

All my expectations have been dashed.

I am terribly disappointed right now.

And shocked - totally and utterly shocked.

It was cut from the spending increases they really wanted!

No doge cuts , senate only approved five percent . First quarter spending alone wouldve consumed 100 percent of doge cuts . Your senate will never cut. Spending will increase every yr until dollar implodes . Done deal

I am outraged.

I'm writing my member of Congress a very strongly worded letter of disapproval right now.

The doge cuts need to be approved by the senate?

After several months they approved about 9 billion is what my local newspaper said . Jul 17 , S amendment 2853 to H R 4 recissions act 2025 and senate did not want to cut anything.
