DOGE Random Cuts to VA, FCC, CDC, etc

Everyone was onboard to cutting USAID. So I guess we’re also OK with cutting the Veterans Affairs - Who cares if your veteran benefits ever get processed, you’ll survive somehow. And staff cuts to CDC (with bird flu recently moving to humans), FAA, CFPB (protecting consumers from predatory banks), IRS (who were specifically hired to collect from wealthy people cheating on their taxes and these agents bring in revenue many times their salary). Yeah, nonessential stuff. What could go wrong with random firings at midnight without doing any research into what the people are doing. You might even accidentally fire people that manage our nuclear arsenal… yeah, they did that too.

And these are not just “new hires”, it also includes anyone that was recently promoted or recently transfered to a new role. If you want to treat govt like a business, you give sr. management an edict to reduce staff budget by X% and submit the plan within 30 days. That way, you preserve critical talent and at least have a minimal transitiion plan to handle work in progress.

To be very clear here. I 100% support everything President Trump and his staff including Elon Musk are doing. The B.S. talking points about fire nuclear this or that mean nothing to me. Flush the frickin toilet and be done with it.

Forgive him. He gets his news from the parroted talking heads.
He won’t talk about the 25 million people over age 100 collecting social security, or the 390 million active social security numbers in a country of 331 million.

Take some time to look at the details. They aren’t getting rid of folks who will affect payments/care.

Trump’s first term made it clear you can’t fix the swamp from the outside. It has to be drained to remove the cancer before replacing it with a healthy organism. It requires a fundamental change, a revolution. And the soundtrack of revolutions consists of cries of pain and the shedding of blood (figuratively in this case). Whether it can be accomplished within 2 years remains to be seen.
We either MAGA or we follow the EU’s footsteps to oblivion.

Sometimes you need to burn down the forest, I’m considering this a prescribed burn. Improving the habitat and promoting growth!
Just like Mother Nature intended!
We’ve seen what happens when you f—k with Mother Nature, see California and Gavin Newscum!

I remember my boot camp days. Break us down turn us into a fighting machine! The “swamp” needs to burn to the ground, razed and fertilized with a new breed!
Prescribed burns also prevent the spread of invasive parasites, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Maxine Waters, Rashida Taliban just a few of the diseases eating at our great country! The fertilizer being used, illegal aliens!
Burn it down!

Elon Musk discovers $260 billion in social security checks being cashed by vampires

here are some of the age findings with DOGE audit ridiculous we are still paying benefits to people that are over 150 yrs old
The anomalies really stand out beyond 150 years old—over a thousand individuals are listed between 200 and 229 years old, and two people supposedly alive today are marked as between 240 and 249 and an incredible 360 and 369 years old.

You really feel this way … I can see 95% but 100% That sounds like hero worship… So you are good with pardoning the J6’s that assaulted law enforcement … Hit list of people that worked on pursuing the J6ers … Even though they might feel differently about it but did there job …
Declared an energy emergency when we do not have one … The U.S. is currently producing more oil and gas then ever …
Most will see this as knocking Trump. When it is just a point. To why I feel 100% is a bit of a stretch …

My bad. I misquoted 25 million. After counting up the numbers, I only counted over 20 million active social security numbers by people over 100 years old.

So I admit I misquoted the numbers, but are you willing to admit that 20million people in the system, over 100 years old is still a huge problem?

Please enlighten us jim. Which part is a lie?

Is it the part where Musk was appointed by the president to find waste, fraud, abuse and corruption in our government?

Is it the quantities of people that he supplied, broken out by age, with active social security numbers in the system?

  • Age 0-9: 38,825,456
  • Age 10-19: 44,326,480
  • Age 20-29: 47,995,478
  • Age 30-39: 52,106,915
  • Age 40-49: 47,626,581
  • Age 50-59: 45,740,805
  • Age 60-69: 46,381,281
  • Age 70-79: 33,404,412
  • Age 80-89: 15,165,127
  • Age 90-99: 6,054,154
  • Age 100-109: 4,734,407
  • Age 110-119: 3,627,007
  • Age 120-129: 3,472,849
  • Age 130-139: 3,936,311
  • Age 140-149: 3,542,044
  • Age 150-159: 1,345,083
  • Age 160-169: 121,807
  • Age 170-179: 6,087
  • Age 180-189: 695
  • Age 190-199: 448
  • Age 200-209: 879
  • Age 210-219: 866
  • Age 220-229: 1,039
  • Age 240-249: 1
  • Age 360-369: 1

Is it the number of people above the retirement age, who would then be eligible to collect benefits?

Is it that the total number of people on the list exceeds the actual population of the U.S. by over 40 million?

Or is it just that YOUR news sources don’t cover the information at all, so it must all be false?

Which part is a lie jim? Maybe we can find out the truth if we work together.

i agree with you as well. This has to be done. And for all the ones who lost their job I feel for you. There are a ton of us that has lost a job. And its not the end of the world. i have lost my job more then once. You have to chose what you want to do. You can put your head in the sand and cry for ever or understand you need to find work. So go get another job. Life goes on and all the screaming and acting like a child will not change this. So understand you need to find a job & move on.

Does any one have Vampire ammo.? I m not sure where to buy it. But the sounds of this sure scares the crap out of me. And we ask why DSocial Security is going broke. Maybe a good reason.

I think people who favor the victim mentality will whine and bitch and blame and hate. Those with the strength of character to see that this is for the greater good will accept the consequences and adapt.
