Trump's Project 2025 Gains Momentum Amid Controversy

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump has nominated Russell Vought as the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, signaling a strong commitment to reducing government spending and deregulation. Vought, known for his aggressive cost-cutting measures during Trump's first term, is expected to play a key role in trimming the federal budget and potentially reviving the controversial impoundment practice to bypass congressional budget restrictions. This approach may lead to constitutional conflicts, but Trump advisers believe the Supreme Court might support their stance.
