cutting $160B in government waste
#4 | Posted by ScottS
I don't disagree that there is inefficiency and waste in the government, as there is everywhere, including the private sector. But I don't believe that's what DOGE is cutting. They've brought a chainsaw to brain surgery.
Prove it was waste. I'm not willing to simply take the word of the Trump regime, Elmo, their minions or YOU. Most of what I've seen cut were actually beneficial programs and important jobs. VERY little proof of the waste, fraud and abuse that they claim.
I think a little digging reveals Elmo's real motives.

And Trump allows this as payback for Musk's more than $250 million in donations.
