@pbsnews: Presidential budget proposals are usually seen as symbolic. But President Donald Trump is running the Republican Party and asserting presidential power in ways unseen in American history. At the least, the outline he has presented to Congress this year will influence lawmakers’ decisions. From the White House and Republican perspective, his plan to eliminate some programs underscores that he is pushing for action that others have avoided. Looking at his initial or “skinny” budget proposal, along with an “appendix” the White House released last Friday, Trump’s budget would eliminate at least 46 programs and agencies. Many of these programs have vocal advocates who say that without them, critical oversight, protections and functions will be gone. At the same time, as you’ll see, this target list is composed mostly of programs with relatively small budgets. Eliminating them saves a sum barely worth mentioning relative to the federal deficit. Not the scale many fiscal conservatives hope to see. @LisaDNews #trump #trumpbudget #trumpbudgetproposals #donaldtrump #governmentagencies #usgovernment #trumpadministration #pbsnews #federaldeficit #trumpcuts

Trump’s true colors are in this bill. Taking away assistance from people who can’t afford their power bills will lead to DEATH from heatstroke and DEATH from freezing, mostly affecting the elderly.

if Trump wants to eliminate the government he should probably start with himself and his whole Administration put everything back to the States, when all the blue States thrive and the red States fall into chaos then we'll play a game, war games, would you like to play a game? blue States give $3 for every dollar they take red States give $1 for every $3 they take. there's wiggle room there but the principle still stands. ignorance is not Bliss, it's just ignorance🙄

I never thought I'd see the day when helping people is not only discouraged, but outlawed.

This bill is the most vicious attack on humanity. I’ve seen in a long time aside from a war.

Prop.25 game plan. Did no one read those 900 plus pages? Republicans told us they wanted this and they’re play by play so far. Everybody ready for ✝️Xtremism as our government?

Wake up, everyone and call your congressmen, attend protests, do anything & everything we can to demand legislation that uplifts working class Americans. Start making the rich (including churches) pay.

That’s not even it, the budget bill also wants to cut grad plus loans, limit ways to pay back loans, and cap grad loans at $150k which prices out 80% of people from pursuing grad, law, or med school without taking debilitating private loans
