Yes, but in the meantime see if you can find an old school Democrat who will join in the attack. If not, make them own it for the elections.

“Try again after January when the republicrats may have somewhat of a majority”

Absolutely. If the Republicans gain control of the House of Representatives they control the power of the purse per the Constitution. They can simply end funding of the new truth ministry as well as PBS, Planned Parenthood, the Department of Education, Critical Race theory instructions in government agencies, huge consulting fees to social justice organizations, and billions of other wasteful spending. All they have to do is leave the funding out of the appropriations bills they pass and send to the Senate, as well as end the practice of given departments and agencies excessive discretion over funds. If the Senate refuses to pass the appropriations bills, or the President vetos the bills, keep revoting and sending them back.

Unfortunately recent history indicates once the GOP begins running the House it will simply continue existing wasteful and obsolete programs and add earmarks to spending bills for more wasteful spending. Recent GOP House Speakers Dennis Hastert, John Boehner, and Paul Ryan paid lip service to “fiscal responsibility” while continuing to spend like drunken sailors.

I don’t hear the House Republican leaders Kevin McCarthy talking about specific plans to slash wasteful spending. My guess is he and his RINO supporters are licking their chops at the prospect of steering even more dollars to their well heeled donors.

That majority is unlikely to be realized.

It starts out with the presumption that Biden can do this. Doesn't seem legal but apparently we have a king instead of a president because Congress has refused to check the executive power.

Biden and past presidents have run roughshod all over the constitution with their executive orders. Worst of all some EOs stick >and become law< while others are canceled out by the next president. All the entity with the responsibility to make laws says and does nothing.
