The Devil's in the Deficit

The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg

NOTE

The lack of substantive budget plans from the Freedom Caucus

The Freedom Caucus has not presented a budget plan demonstrating the cuts they advocate for, nor have they produced a 10-year balanced budget plan. Their focus on tweeting and holding press conferences has not translated into concrete budget proposals. Furthermore, the discretionary cuts they propose are relatively minor compared to the overall deficit, and they have excluded major budget areas like Social Security, Medicare, Defense, Veterans, and Interest. The speaker expresses frustration with the Freedom Caucus' approach and wishes they would spend more time on constructive proposal development rather than engaging in name-calling.
