Debunks a lot of bullshit peddled by fake news with DOGE

How?

A lot of the claims DOGE are making are just factually incorrect.

From the actual claims, to judgements on them being "corrupt".

So much of it crumbles against the lightest of scrutiny.

If they're such highly trained professionals, why are they making so many mistakes?

Who vetted them?

Why have they not had to go through a confirmation process and be approved by the senate?

They're effectively unqualified members of the public with no right, as dictated by several laws and a constitutional amendment, to access any of the data and information they're forcing their way into, let alone the changes they're making to systems and the data they're exfiltrating to remote private servers.

But some tweet from a software engineer debunks all of that?

The desperations from you lot is mind blowing... If you consider this level if information "evidence" it's no wonder you're buying the bullshit coming out of DOGE.

So... with all of this "efficiency" and billions of dollars (allegedly) being saved left, right and centre - is anyone prepared to start taking bets on how long it will take for the average working class American (especially Trump's supporters) to start asking "where's our tax cuts?"

Because I'm pretty sure they won't be seeing any.

But, I'm almost certain the rich will get some cuts.

And then... how much longer will it take for those "average working class Americans" to realise they've been duped by Trump and Musk?

meh

its not really about more cash

its about having a prez who likes them and doesnt ignore them as deplorables

thats worth more then any tax cut

If you had more than half a functioning brain you would listen to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent who was approved by both sides of congress for that job.

Cite the part of the constitution you think they aren't complying with bullshitter Grin

Scott clearly says Treasury officials are part of Elons teams and the access they have is read only.

The metal retardation from those with TDS is here for everyone to see.

Over $55 billion saved by DOGE in 2 weeks.

When Elon took over at Tesla he invested his last billion into it they were a couple of weeks away from folding.
Today Tesla is worth $1.1 Trillion.

When Elon took over Twitter the company was in trouble when he looked at the books.
He fired 80% of the useless woke idiots reduced office size the profit-loss statements show it's doing better today than under previous owners.

People ignorantly claim Elon isn't qualified.

I see. So after all that talk of deflation and cost-cutting and making America great again, he didn't really mean it at all.

Turns out it's just about being liked by good old DL.

I'm sure that's worth a few inflationary tariffs, cuts to services and handing the government over to the billionaire donor class, don't you?

DL likes me. I feel better already.

You?

No no, $78,600. That's the money USAID saved on funding tranny musicals and gay comic books.

Look after the pennies and the pounds take care of themselves, no?

Elon's buyout halved the value of Twitter. It's gutting members by the day. Tesla's dropping too. Elon's one successful venture?

Space X, which receives US taxpayer funds.

Why do you think he joined up with your DL, dear?

I think Musk responded to that already, paki grimacer. He said, 'go **** yourself'. So do it, paki. Go **** yourself.

Anyone who mentions win-win in a business deal will get reamed like karnal does at the harris park dunny block.
Win- win is a way of telling them you need them more than they need you which means they will compromise you until they win a bit more.

Tariffs on steel and alloys will hurt us more than the US our dollar is pissweak compared to USD which means it isn't going to hurt a lot for them.
It's Trump way of helping kickstart those industries in the US.

We do have Esafety Karen giving Trumps friend Elon a hard time she has lost every court case against him costing taxpayers millions.
They don't like dictators who are against free speech.

Elon Musk says DOGE will INVESTIGATE people who’ve gained HUGE wealth while working in government: “It’s odd that there are people in the bureaucracy with a salary of a few hundred thousand dollars, but somehow accrue tens of millions in net worth."

I hope this extends to the Republicans too, because I think it's a good idea.

Will he be investigating himself and Trump? They both got rich of the taxpayer too.
