Trump bypasses Congress to cut nearly $1 billion in spending
President Trump has moved to cut nearly $1 billion in federal spending without congressional approval, bypassing the legislature's power of the purse. The action, reported by US broadcasters, is expected to intensify disputes between the White House and Congress over budget authority and presidential power. Critics are likely to challenge the move, while supporters frame it as reining in wasteful expenditure.
Why now: The move raises fresh constitutional questions about the separation of powers and Congress's control over federal spending.
