Gillespie noted how “Critics took to social media to blast [Washington Post reporter Jeff] Stein, taking issue with his framing that changes to the spending proposal would amount to a ‘cut,’ considering a negotiated bill would still lead to a massive increase in government spending.” Sadly, this is standard for the Orwellian left-wing press, which routinely defines any government spending increase that’s not large enough as money being slashed from the budget.
