Trump May Have Secret Weapon To Ram DOGE Cuts Past Timid GOP Senators (R.I.N.O.'s)

he White House might leverage an obscure procedural tool to push through billions in spending cuts identified by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) without the help of Congress.

In June, the GOP-controlled House approved a $9.4 billion rescissions package to reduce wasteful spending, but Senate Appropriations Committee Chair Susan Collins of Maine has signaled skepticism of the package. However, a little-known mechanism known as a “pocket rescission” could allow the administration to implement tens of billions in additional cuts outlined by DOGE, all without requiring explicit approval from Congress.

Under the Impoundment Control Act (ICA) of 1974, the president can request the rescission of funds that Congress previously appropriated, effectively freezing those funds while Congress is given 45 days to approve or reject the request. A pocket rescission is a rescission request made with less than 45 days left in the fiscal year, causing any unspent funds to automatically expire because most federal funds cannot carry over into the next fiscal year.

So basically the same as a pocket veto

He can ram it through all he wants but if he just going to replace Dem spending with Trump spending then we all lose.  Elon is right on this.
