Hello everybody and thank you for tuning into the weekly report.

Biden's big government centrist of President Biden's 5.8 trillion dollars fiscal year

2023 budget increases discretionary spending to 1.6 trillion dollars.

The remaining $4.2 trillion of spending consists of mandatory spending, including on social

security, Medicare, and interest on the national debt.

The discretionary spending is divided between $813 billion for defense and $769 billion

for the rest.

Since Biden's budget increases military spending and does not call for major new government

programs, some have described it as centrist, calling a $4.5 trillion tax and spend monstrosity

centrist.

It shows how far the center of American politics is from the principles of limited government.

Little of Biden's proposed defense budget will be spent to defend the American people,

although it will defend the ability of defense contractors, lobbyists, and war party

propagandists to continue littering North Virginia with MacManchons.

Biden wants to spend yet more to continue the U.S. counterproductive intervention in Ukraine,

as well as on NATO and other programs aimed to challenging Russia.

And Biden's budget also proposes spending at $1.8 billion to support free and open connected

secure and resilient Indo-Pacific region, and another $400 million for countering the

people's Republic of China's maligned influence fund.

How would Biden react if China started spending money to challenge the U.S. influence in the

Western Hemisphere?

Biden's budget spends $33.2 billion to support law enforcement.
