On Thursday’s Mark Levin Show, WJNO’s Brian Mudd fills in for Mark.  The federal budget is the key to making America great again. There are two ways to shrink the federal government: identifying and cutting wasteful programs and agencies, and pushing for legislation to defund them, leveraging their reliance on congressional budgets.
