> According to the administration’s 2027 budget proposal, “every tool in the executive fiscal toolbox has been utilized to achieve real savings”. It’s so concerning to see journalism that quotes a lie from a political regime. It’s dishonest reporting. The Trump admin isn’t “using every tool in the executive toolbox to achieve real savings.” That’s a complete lie. They’ve wasted hundreds of billions of dollars on an illegal war with Iran, on illegal tariffs, on illegal ICE deployments. The list of executive waste is incredible.
