Trump Budget Seeks 23% Domestic Spending Cut, 13% Defense Hike

  • President Donald Trump released his 2026 budget plan proposing a $163 billion cut to non-defense domestic spending and increased national security funding.
  • The budget reflects efforts to reduce spending on diversity programs and climate initiatives amid ongoing political and financial challenges, including incomplete tax and tariff details.
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson is actively working with Trump to pass the so-called "big, beautiful bill" through the House by Memorial Day before sending it to the Senate.
  • Johnson described their recent meeting as "very productive and encouraging" while awaiting final tax calculations on an aggressive schedule, even as Democrats prepare strong opposition.
  • The proposal responds to the nation’s ballooning $36 trillion debt and near-$2 trillion deficits but raises concerns over deep cuts to government programs relied on by Americans.
