Trump Seeks Unprecedented Presidential Control Over Federal Spending

Plans to bypass Congress and cut funding for various programs could trigger a constitutional crisis.

Trump aims to assert more control over federal budget than any previous president.
Proposals include repealing parts of a 1974 law that limits presidential spending authority.
Legal experts warn these actions could violate the Constitution and disrupt the balance of power.
Targets for funding cuts may include green energy subsidies and international aid programs.
Trump's campaign defends the plan as necessary to reduce national debt and curb inflation.
