Of course not. Now enjoy replying to anyone requesting it manually, as it is a government funded report and you have to release it on request.

Probably an effect of DOGE, by showing they were saving money on employees and server costs, without knowing the consequences of making it probably a magnitude more expensive than it was before DOGE came.

Do they though? The Trump administration isn't exactly known for obeying the law. They'll probably spout some nonsense about "other taxpayers bearing the cost of the paper" or something.

I see what you are saying and this is true for the things that land on Trump’s table and include thr SCOTUS. All other things will be handled according to law and if not, a judge will help out.
