Pelosi: Trump Budget Is Systemic Deconstruction of the Federal Government and Its Role’ (CNS News)

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi rejects the values she sees in President Trump's budget blueprint. She called it a fundamental disagreement about the role of government. 

“This budget is really a slap in the face of the future,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said on Thursday, after President Donald Trump released his Fiscal Year 2018 budget blueprint to “make America great again.”

Pelosi said the budget – which boosts defense, homeland security, veterans affairs and school choice at the expense of the EPA, State Department, and other programs -- fails as a statement of values, but it succeeds as a “deconstruction” of the federal government.
