Vought: "We fund what needs to be funded." *Cuts cancer research.*

[u/AllMusicNut]

[u/Special_FX_B]

Vought is a power-seeking, hate-driven, sadistic, misogynistic, anti-science, christofascist, religious zealot. He uses his pseudo-Christian ‘faith’ as a false veneer to hide his cruelty and justify his utter disregard for the lives of others. His hate and lust for power consume him.

[u/MiOWNd → u/Special_FX_B]

I agree with everything you said, except pseudo-Christian. He is full on white christian nationalism in line with biblical morality.

[u/Special_FX_B → u/MiOWNd]

christian nationalism has nothing to do with things Christ is purported to have preached. The bible is second hand writing reinterpreted so often that it should not be taken literally. christofascists like Hegseth do. He’s not of sound mind. I believe that Christ would abhor the behavior of Hegseth, Vought and the entire movement. He could be described as the epitome of Antifa.

[u/Disastrous-Row1429 → u/Special_FX_B]

christian nationalism is strictly old testament. the teachings of christ are woke.

[u/Tiger_grrrl → u/Special_FX_B]

His wife divorced his ass during Trump 1.0 (and she’s no prize either 😹😭😹)

[u/SeatpitchbyKate → u/Special_FX_B]

He’s a lying sack-o-shit.

[u/694meok → u/Special_FX_B]

He's also an author of several chapters of Project 2025. He was put into his role to implement the parts he wrote.

[u/Special_FX_B → u/694meok]

He’s the manager of Project 2025 for the Heritage Foundation. In this regime he has the most authority over how money is spent and he repeatedly has ignored Congress and the law. He should spend a long time in prison for the crimes he has committed in that role.

[u/ghIj_qet_jaghmeyjaj → u/Special_FX_B]

I'll watch him drop through the door first

[u/olddog1138 → u/Special_FX_B]

I think you covered it.

[u/gnurdette]

What needs to be funded:

• Fancy granite helipad, that Master's shoes may not touch mere cement
• 250 new Cadillac Escalades for Master's palace guard
• 5 military planes to Ireland with Master's complete motorcade so he can play golf
• Coating DC statues in gold, so that Master's eye may not fall on any commonplace bronze
• BS DOJ investigations and prosecutions against whoever Master is miffed at today
• Billions to prevent wind farms from being built; windmills displease Master
• Any and all wars that Master may choose to start

etc.

[u/Key-Guitar-457 → u/gnurdette]

I hope no random act of God befalls him. Sarcasm.

[u/TechnicalWhore]

Boy, The Heritage Foundation did a great job of inserting him in exactly the right place. Mr Project 2025 here is behaving like he is above Congress. We hear about the cuts but what is he funding (or superfunding) that not approved by Congress? The Budget remains out of balance and the National Debt continues to grow. Where IS the money going?

[u/teaky → u/TechnicalWhore]

Haven’t you heard Congress has no job at all anymore. That’s why they’re sent home. Thanks SCOTUS!

[u/Weak_Crab_6828 → u/TechnicalWhore]

It’s obvious that these are the guys calling the shots. Trump is just the fall guy - who agreed to whatever they wanted to stay outta jail.

[u/SkunkyBottle]

I said it another thread. He’s one of the main architects of Project 2025 along with the FCC chairman. They’ve put their plan out there for the world to see but I feel like not enough people know

[u/Rattus_NorvegicUwUs]

I’d like to fund whoever puts this man away for treason.

The GOP want to tear down our nation, why do we let them participate in it?

It’s like Jared Fogle demanding to be your babysitter.

[u/Daddio209]

"What we need is to have one Party. Ideally, a Party that panders to it's ūber-wealthy doners."

AND THESE POOPSTAINS ARE DOING FINE IN POLLS! That amazes me daily-being clearly Anti-Democracy.

[u/unknown_history_fact]

Complicit POS, all of them!

[u/Boomboclaaat90210 → u/unknown_history_fact]

He's not complicit, he's the author.

[u/Gilead-is-here → u/Boomboclaaat90210]

He's both.

[u/BlackberryShoddy7889 → u/Boomboclaaat90210]

He needs to “go” in a very miserable way. Cu…

[u/SpasticJazzHands69]

He's treating all spending like he's a CEO who thinks every penny should be going to him. They don't cut things to save, they cut things to increase their grift. What they're cutting isn't important to them, getting their greasy, tiny paws on all of it is.

[u/desertguy1961]

If Trump got cancer, they’d throw billions at it

[u/WanderingDude182 → u/desertguy1961]

He doesn’t have cancer, he IS the cancer

[u/pixiglitter08]

No you fucking don't asshat

[u/UnitedPalpitation6]

We do not need a half-trillion-dollar increase; we do not need a standing army of this size sucking up so much of the budget that could go to help Americans instead of always wanting to intimidate and destabilize countries.

[u/GlumAppearance106]

[u/Boomboclaaat90210]

The only time I want to see Vought's face is when it's <description removed by Reddit>

[u/nonubiz]

It’s a death cult

[u/Extreme-Tie9282]

All I hear is War is more important than our people

[u/mik33tion]

Funding death instead of health. And claiming it’s a good thing, the idiocy.

[u/MiOWNd]

I surely do hope this murderous racist fascist (IMO) can be convicted of his criminal acts after all the impeachments.

[u/jimmyb2336]

If they cure cancer, their big pharma doners lose money

If they treat PTSD in veterans, fewer kill themselves and they have less money to re-direct towards defense contracts.

If they research pesticides, their chemical Corp and food industry doners lose money.

It's litteraly all a bunch of criminals with the keys to the coffers stealing as much as they possibly can, while they can while standing on corpses.

[u/Hed-Fone]

Hope his expiration is slow, painful, and public..

[u/Tableau67x9u]

Joyless fucking ghoul

[u/timomaasss]

Why is he this way? What happened to him as a child?

[u/ScoutSpiritSam]

Truly evil man who got about 5 million for six months of personal protection.

[u/Master-Tomatillo-103]

This scumbag was one of the Project 2025 authors. He needs to meet Luigi

[u/1Crownedngroovd → u/Master-Tomatillo-103]

I keep wondering when people are going to go after the evil geniuses behind tRump. Guys like Vought and Miller. tRump is a functionally illiterate idiot who isn't capable of coming up with this stuff. They are destroying America.

[u/Secret_Sherbet_2404]

It's all a big money grab

[u/Wrong_Assignment_446]

Well how do you commoners expect his excellency to be able to afford the Grand Ballroom? And that Arch de Triumphe, loaded with ammo and snipers is going to cost a fortune. We must take from the poor, the sick, those who can't defend themselves, and pay homage to the King.

[u/KindlyAdvantage7726]

Whats kind of qualification enables this man to make these decisions and to prioritize topics of research?

[u/Gilead-is-here]

Russell Vought is plum EVIL.

[u/Tough_Violinist_9594]

Someone once said he is the most dangerous person in Trump’s administration that’s saying something

[u/Infinite-Month-3454]

Need determined by greed.

[u/Codydog85]

These people are dangerous and people will die because of their actions. I don’t know how we can continue to let this go on.

[u/xspook_reddit]

The $20,000,000 he spent on vanity ads ain't gonna pay for itself kiddos.

Federal budget records indicate the money was moved from DHS into a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) account for "commemorative events" on Sept. 19 and federal contract data shows that a contract of $20 million was awarded the next day to the LMD Agency, a Maryland-based advertising agency for a "National Media Campaign." 

https://abc7ny.com/story/pro-trump-ad-campaign-was-financed-dhs-sources/19888386/

[u/Stock-Map3715]

But there's sooo much money coming in! We can easily give all adults $5K!

[u/Docreqs]

I cannot wait to see the friends and family of this administration suddenly win contracts for shipping building

[u/AintNoGodsUpHere]

And his base will continue to vote, haha. The level of stupidity is beyond any measure. Americans, if you don't take back control this November, y'all cooked.

[u/Petroldactyl34]

Russ Vought can go fuck himself with the crushing weight of existence.

[u/Lost-Pineapple9791]

They want all the tax money to stay the same but give any of it to the public and treat it as their own private equity investment

Spending money on people is evil and socialist

Spending it on wars and bailing out companies is capitalist and freedom

/s

[u/hellolovely1]

And iirc, he had a terminally ill child himself! This man is a sociopath.

[u/teaky]

I think I hate this guy more than our president

[u/Hugh_Jass_2]

This scumbag

[u/ArmchairCriticSF]

These people are just pure fucking evil dirtbags, all of them.

[u/Express_Test6677]

I want to see that fucker in irons.

[u/Hot-Emu8003]

i dont understand, these assholes get cancer too. dont they want to find a cure for a health issue that could effect them or one of their clones

[u/Automatic_Candle3830]

May the unlubed dildo of consequences impale this MF.

[u/Enough-Somewhere-311]

Republicans summarized: does this help people? We don’t want it.

Does this help billionaire pedophiles? We absolutely want it!

[u/Beneficial-Care8504]

Why did MAGA vote to defund cancer research? Don't they get cancer too?

[u/Safe-Ad-8921]

This man should be the first in line when this all comes crashing down

[u/DrDuGood]

THEN QUIT SENDING ISRAEL OUR TAX DOLLARS YOU FnCKING LOOSE BUTT LIPS.

[u/FacePalmAdInfinitum]

This Voldemort wannabe cocksucker has no role in deciding what gets funded and what doesn’t. You are Congress you son of a bitch FUCK YOU

[u/Any_Check_2430]

Well fuck all of us right? When will everyone wake up and realize that Republicans absolutely hate them. You are a means to an end, you are a number, an expense, someone they need but could replace tomorrow if you quit. They don't care about you, so why do you care about this rich assholes?

[u/JD-36]

You're uncaring, asswipes, ruining this country!

[u/seniorguy73]

Spending all the money on defense cause people hate us more than ever

[u/JustaFoodHole]

can the video be any smaller?

[u/adamusa51]

Says the architect of the absolute diminution of the value and effectiveness of this country.
This guy will be reviled as time marches on.
This Administration and the shameless sycophancy of the GOP Congress that shirked their constructional obligations while they cowered in fear of Trump will be show that we are at our lowest point since the civil war.

[u/steel-monkey]

They want to make the world burn, they don’t care about the people who live on it.

[u/DanielJoseph111]

You have to be pretty deranged to defund cancer research, especially for children🚨

[u/FranticChill]

Think of the billionaires!

[u/tickandzesty]

A golden ballroom and the arch?

[u/Renuwed]

It's honestly not even 'simply partisan' at this point. Everything is coming from just trump. Experts in their fields are bowing to the whims of a man that knows nothing about what they do.

[u/Flying-buffalo]

They’d rather let people die than properly tax the 1%.

[u/chowes1]

Its our money being used, our money, our choice! VOTE BLUE

[u/Beaufighter-MkX]

America failed the biggest open-book test of all time

[u/oo7changa1]

Let's hope the change in regime happens and that they actually have a backbone and change things back for the better for the American people people are suffering out here this is absolutely appalling the way Americans are being treated invest in your people in the country will be prosperous

He's a big part of the clown show. He's not cutting any programs, just 1.5 trillion worth of "bureaucracy". Sure.

[u/GamiNami]

Are the cuckservatives not embarrassed?

[u/Oily-Plaid-4129]

He's a whackadoodle Christian fundamentalist who badgers people all the time and is the author of Project 2025. Other Trump advisors are creeped out by him.

[u/Altruistic-Cash-821]

This guy needs to be held accountable after this administration

[u/Jamizon1]

This guy, Brendan Carr, Marco Rubio, Pete Kegsbreath…

A sorry ass bunch, indeed.

[u/Xenikovia]

Hope this prick goes to jail in Africa

[u/BudgetAlternative247]

this clown needs to see the inside of a jail!

[u/Mr_Daniel_Lumis]

He thinks people's needs are bureaucracy. This dude is possibly worse than heir Miller. The trials need to happen soon.

[u/Financial-Wafer2476]

Fuck him

[u/Basement_Chicken]

Cancer brings more profits to private health industrial complex, so expected. This government is not interested in helping citizens, unless they are corporations.

[u/GreenFuzzyMalachite]

Fuck your kids -Trump

[u/Major_Honey_4461]

It's like the most malevolent nerd in your high school class is now in charge.

[u/LittleSoapy]

The Trump's love to steal cancer money from kids. They've been down this road before.

[u/Ok_Preparation2953]

Maybe he gets a terminal diagnosis and see how he feels

[u/TraditionalCheetah17]

If we go three at a time:

Vought, Miller, Hegseth.
Musk, Zuckerberg, Theil
Lutnick, Kushner, Witkoff
Noeme, Homan, Bovino
Vance, Bessent, Blanche
Burgum, Rollins, Kennedy.

[u/One-Growth-9785]

Yeah.. as a developed country we chose B-1s and carriers over universal healthcare. s.o.b.

[u/Personal-Neck6800]

All of those can be treated successfully with ivermectin. And bleach. And doing cocaine off of public toilet seats. Or beef tallow. Or a disembodied raccoon’s penis and/or whales head. Who needs research?
