How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Donβt you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14?
What about the White House?

But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.
