Republican lawmakers are pushing back against sweeping cuts to the federal government launched by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, as their downsizing crusade begins to hit GOP constituents.
A growing number of GOP lawmakers are trying to intervene with the Trump administration and are weighing legislation to circumvent the changes. But with the Department of Government Efficiency and the Office of Management and Budget moving at a rapid clip and flouting federal law to carve up the government, the lawmakers face monumental challenges in getting the White House to spare their constituents from the ax.
It’s an awkward position for GOP lawmakers who have otherwise voiced support for DOGE.

The leopards are morbidly obese already.
The leopards are coming so fast they’re red shifting.
“He’s hurting the wrong people!!1!”
awwww. you’re getting exactly what you signed-up for.
lay in the shit you helped spread… or hang the traitors.
your choice. only one of them is the correct one, but you won’t pick that one, will you. because some black single mother and their lgbtq neighbor kid are getting hit, too–that makes it all ‘ok’ and worth it, right?
“They’re not hurting the right people!”
Oh, cutting government programs that are in place to help the less fortunate so you can give the rich another tax cut is hurting the less fortunate?
He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.
“An awkward position”??? They are elected officials, and should do what their constituents want, not what will keep them in good graces with the Orange god king and his bumbling idiot vizier.
The Venn diagram circle of constituents who are complaining now is about 99% inside the one of constituents who will vote MAGA no matter what.
“You said you were going to bite our heads off, we didn’t think you were going to bite our heads off!”
