Alina Habba, senior adviser and attorney for President Donald Trump, told Newsmax on Friday that the administration is “trying to help,” not hurt the American people by removing billions in federal waste.
Earlier in the day, Trump said during a news conference with recently confirmed Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, that he is considering merging the U.S. Postal Service with the Commerce Department. Habba wanted to confirm that this idea is in the early stages of discussion and something the president is “considering.”
“This is all part of the same plan, which is to help American taxpayer dollars. No. 1, make sure we’re spending them right. No. 2, make sure we’re not spending too much and then get some of that money eventually back into our pockets, which is something we haven’t had for a very long time,” Habba said during an appearance on “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”
