White House won't move forward with billions in foreign aid cuts

[TheCount]

The White House will no longer move forward with a proposal to cut billions of dollars in foreign aid that was allocated in the latest congressional budget deal, according to a senior administration official.

The Office of Management and Budget was expected to release a package this week calling for cuts in $4.3 billion in foreign aid through a process known as rescission. But the plan was taken off the table amid pushback from some top administration officials and lawmakers in Congress, the official said.

Well over a hundred years of folks holding their breath...it's just one big mission to the stars and beyond.

Cut off Israel before cutting off the poor Countries, then cut them off, but not
before Rich Israel, so fond of War Crimes, illegal occupation, land robbery,
and controlling American Politics.

But Trump was considering it. Or at least somebody claimed he was.

And that's what counts.

Next week a Trumpkin will post a thread about how Trump really wanted to but then Ivanka or Mnuchin or Cobra Commander convinced him not to.


Then they'll be able to still credit and praise him as if he did it, even though he didn't. It's magical that way.

He has the best considerations. Unfortunately, he has simply not followed through with enough of them. He has lost political clout by doing this. To the point nobody takes any of his threats seriously. I'd be surprised if he actually goes through with higher tariffs on China.

Well thats not good.

He makes lots of promises. But as long as people think he is doing something about a problem, it doesn't matter if he really does anything. Just claim credit and move on.

Let me know when this is actually confirmed.

Don't forget that every time he considers doing anything, he also considers doing the exact opposite. So every time he does that he follows through on something he considered. And he deserves credit for all those follow throughs.

worst dictator ever, how dare he consult with congress which controls the spending

Had he done what the OP says, and proposed rescission, that would have been consulting Congress, who would then have to approve that proposal.

What a great way to eliminate the deficit

Clearly it is Putin forcing Trump to give out foreign aid.

He is just doing what Putin tells him to do.

Did you want confirmation when it was said that they were going to do it?


Nope: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6669274

The news rarely makes up things to make Trump look good and it was clear that it hadn't been confirmed yet.

So let me know when this RUMOR is confirmed. (This rumor does confirm the original report that it is being considered)

What kind of 3D is this?

Why?

In a recent non-fakenews poll. this step had 100% support.

Would you support ending all US foreign aid immediately?

• Yes 100%
• No 0%

Israel is part and parcel of America's soul.

Safe to assume your views on this are similar to those of Liberal Democratic icon Pelosi?

Pelosi: ‘If Our Capitol Crumbles To The Ground, The One Thing That Remains Is Our Commitment To Israel

Trump: "Nancy Pelosi loves this country"

[Stratovarious]

Why are you so anti-Semitic? Israel is part and parcel of America's soul.

FK Israel, and you can fk the fk off for name calling its against tos by the way.
Why don't you just go live there since you love War Criminals, butchers
and land robbers.
Israel is a cancer eating away at America.
