    Yea because it won’t be just Donald Trump and DoGe doing the audit. ( which I have explained at least three times).
    Hundreds of auditors will be needed. DoD will have their auditors there, their accountants, it’s not like just 3 people are sitting down going through your personal taxes.

    @gaterzfan same here. I don't know why anyone would block you outside of just blocking everyone who disagrees with them. Political fundamentalism would be my guess. You were excommunicated for heresy.

    You can't be serious. You think the tiger is going to change his stripes. It doesn't matter if there are thousands of great auditors, it matters who edits the report or directs the auditors what to do. I thought you wanted a thoughtful rational discussion and then you say that the audit, under this administration, could be properly performed. Your right, pointless. None so blind as those that refuse to open their eyes

    There is no answer that yall will accept for the next for years. Everything will be a lie, everything will be retribution, everything will be but Trump. That’s fine. But don’t act like you can have a rational debate or discussions when you will not accept any outcome that is in way connected to the current administration.

    Audit the DOD. Has been decades of funding and accountability is lacking. Seems a consensus here.

    But what is DOGE’s goal? Their proscribed goal was to revamp the contracting process and streamline it to achieve maximum efficiency. That doesn’t mean less funding, waste, fraud, and abuse. It just means it’s more efficient at payouts for the waste, fraud, and abuse.

    You're quoting Steven A? I'm laughing my ass off hearing that. Good one. Couldn't read further.

    Final Biden-flation report .... left the new administration with a mess.

    Inflation heats up, adding pressure on Trump over vow to lower prices

    "Inflation for so-called core items, which exclude volatile food and energy prices, climbed 3.3% over the past 12 months, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday, above economists' expectations of 3.2%. On a monthly basis, the inflation measure rose 0.4%, exceeding forecasts for 0.3%."

    +

    "While BLS report's survey period does not cover Trump's first weeks in office, the fresh data shows the challenge of slowing price growth [caused by the Biden/Harris/Schumer/Pelosi administration] could be more difficult than Trump and many economists had hoped.

    Egg prices soared more than 15%, the biggest jump since 2015, largely fueled by an outbreak of bird flu. Housing costs, vehicle insurance, airfares and education prices also rose even as prices fell for appliances, furniture and many types of apparel — possibly reflecting holiday-season discounts.

    Across the consumer economy, there are signs that many households are pulling back. McDonald's on Monday reported its biggest sales drop since the pandemic, with a slight uptick in traffic but diners spending less. With airline ticket prices climbing, low- and middle-income consumers are adjusting their travel plans for the year. Even booze sales are slipping."
