White House Doubles Down on Foreign Aid Cuts, Discloses Trump’s Health Diagnosis
UNITED STATES, JUL 17 – Trump's budget chief announced plans to enforce additional federal spending cuts, including a $9 billion rescissions package, despite bipartisan opposition in Congress.
- On Thursday in Washington, Russ Vought suggested he doesn’t need Congress or the Constitution to force through massive cuts, hinting more are coming soon.
- After sending a $9 billion rescissions package and signing a $3.3 trillion policy bill earlier this month, Trump and Vought set the stage for further cuts.
- Data show the package slashes public television’s educational programming, and the NIH has lost 1,200 employees and faces a proposed 40% budget cut.
- Opponents, including Senator Susan Collins, slammed the proposal, while Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called funding NPR and PBS `ridiculous` and urged swift House approval.
- The House is expected to vote on the rescissions package before the end of the week, and if it misses Friday’s deadline, the White House must spend the funds.
