Förutom att muren rök så är den federala finansieringen av Sanctuary Cities och Planned Parenthood räddad. EPA klarar sig också bra och får behålla 99% av sin finansiering.
Way to Go, Trump!

Ja, demokraterna har ju utlyst den här budgeten som en fullkomlig seger?

Det
enda som inte klarade sig var Michelle Obamas program för bistånd riktat till utbildning för tjejjer i u-länder.
Såklart utmärkt för nationen att presidenten och republikanerna inte kan montera ner allt de kan i landet, men inte heller riktigt ett resultat man förväntar sig utav
"världens bäste förhandlare"...?

Eight ways Trump got rolled in his first budget negotiation
Perhaps the best negotiators are not the people who tell everyone that they are the best negotiators.
A spending agreement was reached last night that will keep the government funded through the end of September. This will be the first significant bipartisan measure passed by Congress since Donald Trump took office.
The White House agreed to punt on a lot of the president’s top priorities until this fall to avert a shutdown on Friday and to clear the deck so that the House can pass a health-care bill.
1. There are explicit restrictions to block the border wall.
2. Non-defense domestic spending will go up, despite the Trump team’s insistence he wouldn’t let that happen.
4. Trump fought to cut the Environmental Protection Agency by a third. The final deal trims its budget by just 1 percent, with no staff cuts.
6. The president got less than half as much for the military as he said was necessary.
7. Democrats say they forced Republicans to withdraw more than 160 riders.
8. To keep negotiations moving, the White House already agreed last week to continue paying Obamacare subsidies.
Edit: Det finns en "fuck you, Sessions"-rider däri också, som uttryckligen förbjuder den federala regeringen att röra delstaters medical marijuana-initiativ.

Tyvärr inget gällande legaliseringar, så vi får se vad som händer med Colorado och Oklahoma, men man kan inte få allt!
