WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House released President Donald Trump’s 2026 budget proposal Friday, hoping to slash, if not zero out, spending on many government programs. It seeks a sweeping restructuring of the nation’s domestic priorities reflective of the president’s first 100 days in office and sudden firing of federal workers.

Under President Donald Trump, budget chief Russell Vought has sought to assert more unilateral control over government spending than the White House usually has.

The White House on Friday released President Donald Trump's proposed budget for the 2026 fiscal year, which calls for $163 billion in cuts to federal spending.

The newly appointed interim national security adviser is preparing to stay in that role for up to six months, a person close to him said.
