Remember when reporters weren't trump-pets?
Imagine in our wildest dreams any reporter asking at a trump appearance or press conference where the money is going and where it is right now? Then ask the follow-up, "But where is it?"
And if the rancid orange won't answer, ask any Republican Politician at any town hall or anywhere. Remember, they control the purse so they have to know, right?
I'll wait.
By the way, is the gold still in Ft Knox? Asking for a curious country!

(75,859 posts)I know it's hard to believe but they lied about how much money they would save. Shocking, isn't it?
Of course the number they first made up was impossible, so they revised it to a smaller made up amount, tge again to a smaller made up amount.
They shouldn't have quit revisiing because the most current "estimate" (read as another lie) has at least one too many zeroes in it.

It's rather like saying, "We were $500/month in the red every month and now we're only $300/month in the red," only to have somebody say, "So you're pocketing that other $200?"
I'd assume it would just not go anywhere but would decrease the amount of debt being borrowed at 4% interest. Even if it stays in the same budget account until the end of the f/y.
