Trump Eyes Impoundment to Slash Spending Without Congress

President-elect Donald Trump plans to use impoundment, a presidential power to withhold funds approved by Congress, to cut government spending, raising concerns about the separation of powers. The Impoundment Control Act of 1974 limits this power, but Trump argues it's unconstitutional and seeks to challenge it, potentially leading to a Supreme Court case. His allies, including Russ Vought and Elon Musk, support expanding presidential authority to control spending, which could result in constitutional conflicts.
