The federal government is clearly bloated.
Spending has grown 600% since 1990 from around $1 trillion to around $7 trillion while inflation has gone up around 140%.
Yet, the media and other Democrats are reacting to Trump's audits of agencies to find waste, fraud, and abuse as if they are illegal and a disaster.
They love auditing the people and businesses in the private sector, with their 87,000 new IRS agents, yet they are suing to stop the audits of government agencies.

I can't imagine how many agencies perform overlapping work.
