For the federal government, September is the real holiday: with the federal fiscal year ending, it’s spending mayhem. Adam Andrzejewski of Open the Books joins us to explain just how much spending occurs at the end, and what can be done.

 

We also cover these stories:

  • President Trump gives a speech on religious liberty at the UN.
  • “There is no international right to an abortion,” says HHS secretary Alex Azar at the UN.
  • Climate change protesters block traffic in Washington, D.C.

    Does OpenTheBooks.com cover federal expenditures too? (Sorry, I haven’t visited the site yet).

    What really sucks in addition to catastrophic anthropomorphic climate change is that we ran out of oil this year. I know this, because 30 years ago when I was in 7th grade I was made to watch a video about how would be out of oil in 30 years. Of course, I ran home scarred and told my Dad about it. He just laughed and told me they told him the same thing when he was in school.

    I found a lot of Federal Government spending information on the site.  I am still exploring it as well.

    I am curious how much information requires signing up versus directly available.
