Does the House really want to reduce spending?

[Melensdad]

At least 3 House members seem to be firm NO votes.

Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky each have at least 1 GOP member who is a firm NO. And let's hope these 3 can sway the rest of the house to actually cut spending. Because the proposed budget actually increases spending.

Here is Kentucky House Member Thomas Massie explaining, in simple terms, why this bill should be trashed.

No politician wants to reduce spending.
And if DOGE is doing what it's supposed to be doing, why is the budget increasing?
And it did there that Trump endorsed it.
And the democrats are saying DOGE isn't doing anything, but only pointing out past waste.
So if the democrats are wrong, shut isn't the budget being reduced, significantly???.

I agree. They have had decades to get er done. They give it lip service and that's about it. Then they blame others in congress for failing to reduce spending. It's worked for them for decades.
