President Trump supported Musk&#8217;s findings and indicated that the total could be much higher.The Republican-led House previously passed a budget resolution proposing $1.5 trillion in cuts, while the Senate&#8217;s resolution suggested only $4 billion in reductions. Barrasso expressed confidence that the Senate could match or exceed the House&#8217;s proposed cuts, emphasizing the need for fiscal responsibility considering rising inflation. He noted that Republican senators have been working on budget cuts since the previous summer. The ultimate goal is to return spending to about $5.5 trillion annually and possibly achieve a balanced budget if meaningful cuts are enacted.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso of Wyoming said Sunday that he and his GOP colleagues are looking to cut $2 trillion in federal spending as part of the so-called &ldquo;big, beautiful bill.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s certainly something that will bring a smile to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/democrats-attempting-force-elon-musk-government-role-using-federal-law\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Department of Government Efficiency<\/a> head Elon Musk, who reported to President Donald Trump last week that his team has found $160 billion in waste, fraud, and abuse in federal outlays that should be rescinded immediately.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">&ldquo;You&rsquo;ve done an incredible job. $150 billion&rdquo; &ndash; Trump<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;$160 billion, but who&rsquo;s counting&rdquo; &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk?\">@elonmusk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#129315;&#129315;&#129315;<br \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/k3qyId4OCT\">pic.twitter.com\/k3qyId4OCT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Gunther Eagleman&trade; (@GuntherEagleman) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GuntherEagleman\/status\/1917643476147036488?\">April 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Trump chimmed in, adding,&nbsp; &ldquo;That number could be doubled and even tripled.
