Chuck Schumer Says Democrats Will Reverse
Most of DOGE Cuts

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 1/18/2026 7:44:30 AM

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) revealed that Democrats would “restore most of the cuts” that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had made. While taking part in a discussion at the Center for American Progress, Schumer received a question about what he “can do about bringing” the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) back, after DOGE came in and made cuts. “If you look at the budget actually, we’re working on right now — and we’ll have the T-HUD budget, you know, transportation and HUD budget, we restore most of the cuts and even go higher than previous years on many of the programs that DOGE slashed,” Schumer responded.

Comments:

And President Trump will veto those increases!! Moron!!

Did he think that through? He will create more dead head jobs again which I'm sure will cost billions. I hope the voters realize where that money will come from.

“we restore most of the cuts and even go higher than previous years on many of the programs that DOGE slashed…” If I were Elon, I would be torqued. Who, in the Administration and faux “leaders” in Congress, hasn’t thought through the events of this past year and done something to codify PDJT’s progress?! I feel I’m living in the Twilight Zone. At this rate, Maduro and his wife will return to Venezuela, with back pay and a little something extra.

Most of the GOP members of Congress are useless putzes but the alternative is even worse. All we can do is hope that the mid terms are swarmed by voters who appreciate what Donald Trump has done for this country and create a large enough majority that the soy boys are declawed. Schumer's career is over but there are too many more like him and Jeffries out there.

I'm guessing the demonut pollsters don't really poll real taxpayers on these issues to come up with their plans. I'll bet they sit around in a room and decide what to say thinking this is great amongst themselves. They figure that their dumb as rocks voters will be all in if they just market it a certain way and it comes off as an anti-Trump initiative.

Dems are really missing their back door funding that they got through their fraudulent programs. This is a real threat. It should be a crystal clear issue for voters. Do you want your government wasting money on foolish things and illegal things done without oversight? Sure the hard Leftists do, they benefit from it. But the "Independent" voters? They may not like the hard charging parts of Trump's administration but they don't want the kinds of programs that DOGE has cut either. The good thing is, the dems are sinking into quicksand of criminality and incompetence and it is unlikely they will rally for the midterms. That will give us another couple years to rebuild the economy and expose and clean up the Left's abuses. By 2028, hopefully the majority of the Country will not see the Dems as a viable alternative for government except in hovels of Leftism like NYC. With federal support cut off for Leftist strongholds, they will collapse.

While anti-ICE leftists may get a pass for their crazed behavior in blue states, Florida is vowing to make an example of them. In Florida, a woman identified as Jennifer Cruz was arrested for allegedly punching a trooper in the face during an immigration law enforcement operation. Instead of treating her with kid gloves, Cruz found out first-hand that the rules are a whole lot different in the Sunshine State. She could also be seen in dashcam footage kicking out at another officer before he was forcefully introduced to the hood of a squad car, all while smiling. Watch: [Tweet, video]

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) vowed that if elected to be the next governor of California, he would take away driver’s licenses from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. While speaking at an event by the Empowerment Congress, Swalwell was asked about his plan to “protect” people in the state from ICE agents, according to Mediaite. Swalwell explained that he would “direct law enforcement” officials to use “every power to prosecute” ICE officials for “battery, false imprisonment, and murder,” according to the outlet. “They’re gonna lose their immunity,” Swalwell said. “They’re not going to be able to drive, I will take your driver’s license.

RINO Congressman Don Bacon (R-NE) floated the idea of impeaching President Trump if he invades Greenland. “I would lean that way,” he said of supporting an impeachment over Greenland. “The off-ramp is realizing Republicans aren’t going to tolerate this and he’s going to have to back off. He hates being told no, but in this case, I think Republicans need to be firm.” Bacon announced his retirement from Congress last July, and he’s eying impeachment as his final act. Bacon also co-sponsored a bill with Democrats to curb Trump’s power and prevent a military invasion of Greenland, which Trump has not expressed plans for.

On Tuesday, the president of the Oglala Sioux Tribe in South Dakota, Frank Star Comes Out, made headlines by claiming that four members of his tribe were unlawfully detained by ICE and calling for their immediate release. He also claimed that the federal government tried to force him to “enter into an immigration agreement with ICE.” To coin a phrase, "That's not entirely accurate." Mr. Star Comes Out apparently felt that Native Americans were being left out of all the victimization of oppressed minorities in Minnesota and decided to shoulder his way onto the stage.

A federal judge in Minnesota just handed down an 83-page order that perfectly illustrates how the left weaponizes language to protect lawbreakers. As PJ Media previously reported, U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez, a Biden nominee, issued sweeping restrictions Friday on how federal immigration agents can handle what she calls "peaceful protests" in Minneapolis. The order blocks agents from using pepper spray, making arrests, or deploying other crowd-control tools against protesters during Trump's ongoing immigration enforcement operations. Federal law enforcement also can't stop or detain drivers and passengers near demonstrations, unless there's "reasonable articulable suspicion" they're forcibly interfering with immigration operations. In theory, one could argue there’s nothing wrong with the order.

Trump advisor Stephen Miller appeared on Fox News, and he reminded the men and women of ICE that the administration had their back, no matter how much Democrat politicians and leftist agitators tried to attack them.

But I guess Democrat House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (NY-08) wanted to try to challenge them for the worst possible take. This is truly insane. Democrats have lost their minds.

The Left thinks they're above the law, and Democrats in D.C. and elsewhere have encouraged their voters to take to the streets to resist ICE, often violently, as we're seeing in Minneapolis. The violence led to the death of Renee Good, who hit an ICE agent with her vehicle after stalking the law enforcement officers for most of the day, and a shooting last night. (Snip) That's a lesson Jennifer Cruz of Jacksonville is discovering. She decided to FA, and now she's FO. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier posted a pic of Cruz being arrested after she decided to exit her vehicle and punch a Trooper in the face.

Oh no. Somebody call a therapist, a spokesperson, and maybe a safe space — wittle Zohran got so mad. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is in full-blown fury mode because federal immigration authorities committed the ultimate sin in progressive politics: they enforced the law. Calmly. Quietly. Professionally. Without asking permission from City Hall or consulting the feelings of the mayor first. The offense? A New York City Council employee — unlawfully present in the United States — was detained by federal authorities during a routine immigration appointment. Not a raid. Not a sweep. Not a door kicked in at dawn. A routine appointment.

When firefighters arrive at a fire, they don't carry cans of gasoline. Their job demands judgment, timing, and courage. Anyone adding fuel while claiming to quickly calm fires reveals their priorities. Thanks to the ACLU's branch in Minnesota, Minnesota now faces that moment. A Lawsuit at the Worst Possible Time The ACLU of Minnesota filed a lawsuit to stop ICE from arresting Somali and Hispanic illegal aliens living in the state. Their idea is to target cooperation between local authorities and federal immigration agents, saying any arrests violate constitutional protections. You know, for those fine, peaceful people who aren't supposed to be here. Their timing couldn't be worse. Minneapolis has turned into a powder keg

The Jan. 7 shooting death of Renee Good has become a political Rorschach test. A Quinnipiac poll released on Tuesday finds that a majority of American voters, 53%, believe ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who shot Good on a Minneapolis street last Wednesday, was not justified in doing so. Thirty-five percent believe the shooting was justified, while 12% have no opinion. But the poll results vary widely when the respondents’ political affiliations are examined. Seventy-seven percent of Republicans believe the shooting was justified, while 28% of independents and only four percent of Democrats hold the same opinion. These poll results are unsurprising. As news of the shooting broke,

NUUK, Greenland — Native Greenlander Amarok Petersen was 27 years old when she learned the gut-wrenching truth about why she couldn’t have children — and that Denmark was to blame. Suffering from severe uterine problems, a medical doctor discovered an IUD birth control device in her body that she didn’t know she had. Danish doctors had implanted it when she was just 13 as part of a population control program for thousands of native Greenlandic girls and women. “I will never have children,” Petersen told The Post, with tears of anger and sorrow welling in her eyes. “That choice was taken from me.”

Spanberger, sworn in earlier in the day as Virginia’s 75th governor and the first woman to hold the office, signed an executive action rescinding Executive Order 47—a directive issued last year that had authorized Virginia State Police and Department of Corrections personnel to assist federal immigration authorities under a 287(g) agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The repeal ends formal cooperation between state law enforcement and federal immigration enforcement efforts.

Congress created Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to briefly assist those in need. Shakespeare warned, “Ingratitude is monstrous; and for the multitude to be ingrateful, were to make a monster of the multitude.” In the case of TPS, “multitude” is correct. As of January 2025, approximately 1.4 million foreign nationals in the United States were shielded from removal under the program. The Trump administration decided to terminate TPS for several countries, with Somalia as the most recent. That choice is the right step in a long-overdue course correction for an immigration program that previous administrations exploited far past its statutory purpose. Somalia was first designated for TPS in 1991
