Summary
Elon Musk claims his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is shutting down payments to federal contractors, including a Lutheran charity, asserting it is eliminating corruption.
This suggests DOGE has access to Treasury’s payment systems, though officials have not confirmed the extent.
Senator Ron Wyden warned that DOGE may interfere with Social Security, Medicare, and government contracts.
Musk also called USAID “a criminal organization” that should “die,” amid DOGE’s growing influence over federal financial operations.
I sure hope this was worth it to hate on the trans and the browns. That’s the only thing dumb ass Americans voted for in 2024.
Looking at exit polls and post election polls it was the economy. Trump was very direct in his promise to lower prices. Harris ran over a hundred different messaging lines which clouded her economic message. Then she got caught on national TV defending Biden’s economy and saying nothing would change.
Yeah. IMO democrats refusing to acknowledge the state of the economy is what tipped the scale. You’d have to be a complete moron to believe Trump had any solutions for the economy, but he at least acknowledged that economically there’s something wrong. Harris on the other hand doubled down on Biden’s economic message of sticking your head in the sand and going “the economy is good”.
