The existence of the Department of Veterans Affairs is a waste, in and of itself.

Mr Musk basically admitted as much when he kept downsizing his estimates for DOGE cost savings.

I am actually how much pointless destruction has been caused by DOGE. Hundreds of thousands of hard working Americans either losing their necessary jobs, or have greatly reduced hours. Cyber secrets revealed to our enemies across the world. Confidence in any orderly or organized methodology being applied after being carefully planned out by economic and industry experts. DOGE has become synonomous with oligarchic greed, and partisan politics.

Yup.

The apparent access that Russia gained to the Fed systems was concerning to me.

Say, whatever happened to all those DOGE committees and subcommittees in Congress and in the statehouses of Red states? Haow about all those DOGE commissions fostered by governors in Red states? Anyone, anyone?

I guess politicians don't like being screamed at by their employers...

So...Doge is a bunch of web designers who wanted to make government web sites easier to navigate? Why not just say so at the start? Of course, there was the part about gleaning all data for hundreds of millions of Americans, so some algorithm could be run and produce a list of suspected dead folks, thieves, sexually active unwed mothers, Methodists, bank managers in California, and thousands of other characteristics, so that their lives could be made a living ----. Good plan, Leon...
