Waste, fraud and abuse
How about that gargantuan White House ballroom project. It dwarfs the White House and is about 700 seats too many. Why couldn’t President Trump consult national architects about the scale of this project. And donors are going to pay for this project just like the Mexican Government is going to pay for the southern border wall. Right!
And then we have the Triumphal Arch. Who needs it? We have so many pressing issues such as education and health care where the money could be better spent. Will Congress not stand up to President Trump on this? What a waste of taxpayer money.
Republicans think that tackling waste, fraud and abuse is great, if it means cutting services to people who need it. Health care for many is down the drain. Abolishing USAID, is causing great hardships and loss of life overseas. But I guess that doesn’t matter to us unless Ebola comes to the U.S. The abuse is bad enough, but the hipocracy of it all is equally galling.
And what about the recent slush fund to compensate Trump’s supporters without compensating the police injured in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol? Trump just reached a settlement with his own government to relieve him, his family and his businesses of being audited by the IRS. Unprecedented and unfair to all other taxpayers. Abuse is a good term, here as is corruption.
And let’s not mention the unnecessary Iran war. The list just keeps getting longer every day.
