Or you can view this fantastic spreadsheet of how YOUR tax dollars are being frivolously spent on some extremely ridiculous programs.

Trump's cut will put basically all of that spreadsheet with ongoing projects on their death beds.

Looking forward to hearing about the new predator stocking levels for 2018 by the Lake Michigan committee.
