Maybe that hypothesized third ice giant that we kicked out 4.5 billion years ago?

Feel free! NASA makes the fleet charts for all their divisions, e.g.,

The even worse graphic will be whatever the NASA folks are forced to make, show, and proclaim as awesome if budget is enacted

So, looks like Voyager is safe for now (I say as someone with no expertise in Voyager funding/programmatics/etc)

Good question.
Voyager is funded out of heliophysics, and in the budget documents: βNASA approved Voyager for continued operations through 2026; the mission will submit a proposal to the 2026 Senior Review cycle.β
Voyager gets a reduced budget and then zeroed out in FY29 (see page HELIO-6).
