Smart Dissent's budget cuts series continues for the 2021 fiscal year budget as Trump seeks to inflict harm to everyone who doesn't bribe him.  Here's part four in an unending series in which individuals who give their lives in service of our country are treated like trash.

Trump has again proposed reducing the value of federal retirement benefits while requiring most federal employees to pay more toward those benefits.

Our Budget Cuts Series enters the 2021 fiscal year with a third post in an unending series.  There's so much to cover from the heinous budget that Trump's cronies unveiled in mid-February 2020.  

For the fourth year in a row, the Trump administration proposed budget cuts that would kill the federal cultural agencies that support arts, humanities and public television stations across the country.

Trump’s 2021 budget calls for $30 million to close out the National Endowment for the Arts and $33.4 million to shutter the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Our Budget Cuts Series is unfortunately back for a fourth year and there's too much to cover from the disgusting fiscal year 2021 budget that Trump's cronies unveiled in mid-February 2020.  This is part two in an series with an unknown amount of parts.

In this post, Trump wants to cut Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and  children's health insurance  - all while keeping tax breaks for the rich.

The White House on Monday proposed a $4.8 trillion election-year budget that would slash major domestic and safety net programs....

Our Budget Cuts Series is unfortunately back again and there's a ton to cover from the grotesque fiscal year 2021 budget that Trump, Mulvaney and crew puked out at us in mid-February 2020.  We'll cover it topic by topic in the coming week.

Trump is about to propose a budget that leans much more heavily on military... than diplomatic prowess....to deal effectively with global crises.
