    Was the lie $50 million or $100 million in condoms to Gaza? I can't remember. But I do know Trump doubled down on the lie. Oops.

    As for the DOGE and pony show website, I'll pass.

    It doesn't matter who does it, the left would still be kicking and screaming.

    Not true. Soros cares deeply about advancing the socialist left.

    Truth. It's just another exercise in big gov spending (40+ employees, probably pulling down fat salaries), consisting largely of Musk's cronies. It's a good ole boy network.

    And more conspiracy theories from the left. If this statement were meant to be critical of democrats, it would be pulled down by Facebook and the old Twitter. Think about that for a second.

    DOGE lacks transparency.

    Several of Mr. Musk’s aides have resisted being listed in government databases out of fear of their names leaking out, according to people familiar with the situation. Others have worked to remove information about themselves from the internet, scrubbing résumés and social media accounts.

    One Musk aide whose name surfaced, Marko Elez, a 25-year-old former employee of X, resigned on Thursday, according to a White House official, after The Wall Street Journal revealed that he had made racist posts on X, writing in one message that “you could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity.” Mr. Elez, a former employee at both X and xAI, Mr. Musk’s artificial intelligence company, was one of two staff members affiliated with Mr. Musk’s team who had gained access to the Treasury Department’s closely held payment system.

    Government as grift:
    Gavin Kliger, a newly minted senior adviser at the personnel office, wrote a Substack post this week titled “Why DOGE: Why I gave up a seven-figure salary to save America” — and asked users to pay a $1,000-per-month subscription fee to read it.

    Show your work. With consideration to the expense of the DOGE, it appears that you are the one defending a big gov grift.

    And I'm an America as the leader of the free world or as the shining city on the hill guy. Although I disagreed with Ronald Reagan on a number of domestic issues he embraced the leadership role of America not an America that is a peer of Russia and an America that is willing to abdicate its leadership role to the People's Republic of China. While complaining about China's growing influence Trump has done a little to counter it.

    this is awesome. So I can do a deferred retirement, be put on administrative leave and continue to draw my salary AND start working for DOGE and draw another salary.

    I just reviewed all the entries. There is nothing about condoms on there. Has that been retracted as a lie yet? How do we know they all arent lies?
