Looks like DOGE is already falling apart without accomplishing much, Elon is quitting

Looks like DOGE is resorting to dragging Social Security staffers out of their offices for disagreeing with Musk. Musk decided to have undocumented immigrants declared dead, and a staffer refused to do it, so he was dragged from his desk and out of the office.

DOGE Goons Physically Drag Social Security Worker From Desk

 

DOGE is making great progress. Three months into Trump's second term, and federal spending is only up by $154 billion. Good thing the U.S. didn't elect an incompetent liar as president--no wait, it did! It's almost like we have a con-man in the Oval Office. Looks like Biden was the more fiscally restrained president--how about that?

‘A joke’: Despite DOGE, gov. spending under Trump vs. Biden up $154 billion this year, WSJ reports

 

DOGE is just such a collection of lies and..... well, other lies ..... that it's hard to know what to even quote from this article.


When he was Mr. Trump’s most prominent supporter on the campaign trail, he said he could cut $2 trillion from a federal budget of about $7 trillion. After Mr. Trump was elected and Mr. Musk’s group began its work, Mr. Musk lowered that goal to $1 trillion.

Mr. Musk’s group has provided an online ledger of its budget cuts, which it calls the “Wall of Receipts.” The site was last updated on Tuesday, to show an “estimated savings” of $150 billion.

The ledger is riddled with omissions and flaws.
