Plus DOGE published that their biggest cost reduction was 8 billion, but turns out it was, I shit you not, $8,000,000.00
And this is the people that are gonna let manage the treasury.
The difference between 8 million and 8 billion is about 8 billion dollars.
Its even more egregious.
So far, doge claims it saved 45 billion on its website. When you add up the actual reciepts posted, it’s 16 billion. Of that 16 billion, half is this false 8 billion, which is 8 million, with 2.5 million already paid out, so actually just 5.5 million.
So even by their records, which are not trustworthy, they may have cut 8 billion. The 100 billion number? Just something Charlie kirk made up. No other hard data at all.
Hey, I lost a lot of weight by removing my limbs!
So for the first leg you chop off, your BMI goes down. With the second one, it goes up significantly. Only chop off one leg.
Plus, you got a really cute nickname! Torso Boy!
I saved about $80,000 by not buying a Cybertruck!
Next time try not buying two of them. The additional $80,000 is life-changing!
If I don’t buy a Cybertruck every day for a year, I can afford a yacht! Now just add some avocado toast, if I’m feeling fancy.
You can “save” a bunch of money by not paying the Fire Department. It’ll look great on a budget, and then you can enjoy the beautiful skyline of your city burning!
Oh hey, I think we did that in 2017 with our pandemic response team. I hear there have been no negative consequences
There is a degree to which wild fires could be solved “just” by ramping up land management significantly to remove invasive species, remove dead growth and overgrowth, etc.
The wildfires have been so bad primarily because of invasive species changing what grows where and breaking down natural fire protections, combined with climate change and reduced natural wildfires creating higher fire risk conditions
and then you can enjoy the beautiful skyline of your city burning!
But how could I? Especially without firemen to start the glow.
Always ask: saved, for what? The money is appropriated by congress. You’re actively working to cut services and programs, not eliminating fraud, waste, or abuse in any way. Not that you’d know, because you already fired the people who track fraud, waste, and abuse for identifying your violations, repeatedly.
