Biden’s Final FU to America: $838B deficit in first 4 months of 2025
- Thread starter Phenomenally Frantastic
- Start date
Do you also blame a Republican led House? They had every chance to cut that spending but chose not to. Or is it solely on Biden? Maybe he should have just not spent that money.
You are aware of what's currently happening to DOGE in its quest to cut spending, correct?
Your Republican majority congress votes on spending.
Do you know when the current fiscal year started?
Last 4 months of the Biden Administration bonehead....
Grifters gonna grift, of course that includes Republicans. Most benefit in some way from the obscene deficit spending.
Then it’s a dumb comparison, who cares.
Wonder how much the Biden Crime family profited from it.
gop controlled congress is only to be referenced when the deficit goes down and a democrat is president
Because 300 billlion more spending in the first quarter is on pace for a 1.3 trillion more deficit spending for the year.
But the even more ominous thing is the tax revenue.
If a company told you that their Q1 comp from FY24 to FY25 had 15% cost growth and only 0.7% revenue growth, would you think they’re doing well?
Who are the Democrats that you expect to vote for spending cuts?
Dems in this thread trying to blame Republicans on out of control spending.
Probably not the time to make that argument...read the room...
BTW CBS says Trump's approval rating is 53%... CBS.

As they should. They passed the tax cuts that couldn’t be paid for. Man you are ****ing stupid. Seriously dude.
He should have fought for lower, not higher, spending.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — President Joe Biden on Saturday signed a $1.2 trillion package of spending bills after Congress had passed the long overdue legislation just hours earlier, ending the threat of a partial government shutdown.
“This agreement represents a compromise, which means neither side got everything it wanted,” Biden said in a statement. “But it rejects extreme cuts from House Republicans...
It took lawmakers six months into the current budget year to get near the finish line on government funding, the process slowed by conservatives who pushed for more policy mandates and steeper spending cuts than a Democratic-led Senate or White House would consider.
Spending FY24 increased by 8.87% over FY23. And that was the compromise!
The economy isn't growing at 8% or 9%.
It's burying the nation in debt while the cost of debt is rising.
It's policy insanity.
Google "spending uncovered by DOGE" and let me know what you find.
I was convinced, and to a degree still am that Republicans were as responsible as Dems for the government waste. So far the evidence isn't showing that, and while I expected waste, I did not expect corruption, and so far that's one sided...
But yet they still bitch about it. Almost seems like they just want to bitch about anything because they have no control anymore.
oh my god...this is shocking news
the explicitly partisan republican audit process is only uncovering waste and fraud that can be laid at the feet of democrats?!??!
i was not expecting that outcome...very concerning
And you think Maxi Waters is gorgeous! 🤡
Seminole you are a moron. In either case, everything moving forward is fully on Trump and Republicans. Last time I checked republicans approved the budget in the the house.
Q1 expenses were over 150% of revenue.
Do you think that is a problem?
Do you think that registers as a problem with any Democrats and that any Democrats will step forward offering cuts to expenses?
Any answers, or just more insults?
Deficit is going to require tax increases and massive cuts.
If both parties don’t have the guts we will eventually get to the point where all tax revenue can’t even cover the interest payments. When that happens it will get damn ugly. When that time comes nobody is going to give a shit about foreign aid.
