House Passes Trump-Backed Rescissions Package Slashing $9 BILLION in Bloated Spending — FOREIGN AID, NPR, and PBS on the Chopping Block — Two Republic

Valletta · 2025-07-18T02:21:42-0500

“This package eliminates $9 billion in unnecessary and wasteful spending at the State Department, USAID, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The American people will no longer be forced to fund politically biased media and more than $8 billion in outrageous expenses overseas. While Republicans continue to deliver real accountability, restore fiscal discipline, and protect taxpayer dollars, Democrats continue to defend waste, fraud, and abuse. This isn’t the end, it’s the beginning. We look forward to passing additional rescissions bills throughout the 119th Congress.”

The first rescissions package that has passed in over thirty years!

Nine billion is peanuts compared to the trillions he’s added with the BBB.

Sadly the only things bloated now are the stomachs of the babies and children dying of malnutrition in Gaza and Africa and the third world.

You can’t give hungry kids handouts. However will they learn the value of hard work? In the long run burning tons and tons of food is actually doing them a favour.

Never thought I would see the day where helping the disenfranchised would be considered as "waste". But then again, we were warned by Jesus Christ of Nazareth what would occur as the condition of the heart would begin to deteriorate then be revealed in such a way.

Mark 7:21-23
"For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, covetings, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: all these evil things come from within, and defile the man."

I remember when Christians wanted the poor and downtrodden to be helped; at least as a mindset.

It's like trump supporters are getting behind those city counsels that prosecuted Christians feeding the homeless.

Trump turned some Christians into callous people. And I'm pretty sure there were some biblical warnings about that.

And some of their pastors have so distorted the lessons and words of Jesus that their congregants believe that mistreating your neighbor is God's command.

It seems like a lot of Christians think those sentiments are inauthentic and were inserted in to the Bible for devious ideological purposes.

LOL, I had to read that several times to catch the sarcasm because sometimes you never know here.

The world's wealthiest country, holding 30% of global wealth, is unwilling to spend $8 billion to address global hunger and poverty. This is especially ironic considering some citizens identify as Christian.

You mean they are misled to believe.

Trump's Christians were like that already. He's just empowering them.

Likely...nonchristians too though, for the record

There's nothing stopping Americans from contributing to numerous organizations that send food and aid to other countries.

Fantine · 2025-07-18T14:34:27-0500

The said part is that Congress gave him a signed BBB (big bad bill) and he sent it back.
Not cruel enough.
Not anti first amendment enough.
What? Poor children might be fed? No!
Not bad enough. SMH.
