I’m just waiting to see when people realize that we are “pivoting” from a government to serve the people, like we have had the last 100 years, back to a government that just exists to protect the rich from the masses.
People who don’t study history are doomed to repeat the mistakes of history the hard way.
Our government doesn’t “serve”’Joe B.
Unless you mean serve themselves off tax dollar boondoggles.
Fire all of Congress past 8 years already.
This music at the circus has stopped. Time for the clowns to find real jobs to “serve” the country.
Amen to that J C B. Joe B and some others on here sound so programmed by the Marxist playbook to attack the hard working Americans.
You’d start with Medicare and Social Security if you meant that.
It’s real simple – a generation that did quite well because of government investment in their lives and education has decided to pull the ladder up behind them.
They had well-funded public schools, because their parents benefitted from programs like the GI bill. They benefitted from investment in infrastructure like the interstate highway system. They had strong unions to ensure the breadwinner had a salary such that they could have stay at home moms take care of them. But that’s all socialism now?
I know why the billionaires want to blow that up. They’d rather have a system in which the government exists to protect their assets, and they have private security to protect them from the people they’re ripping off. But to me, the only boondoggle is how so many have been convinced to go along with it. Why exactly why people want a country like a third world banana republic, in which a handful of people have the money and everyone is an expendable cog in a machine. I can’t figure out if it’s greed or just because … they’d didn’t want to have anything in common with people of different genders and/or races.
They really are deluded enough to thinking that the Democrat party still stands for common people.
Sure, that might have characterized the Dems in 1975, maybe as recently as 1995.
But the oligarch in the executive and his oligarch #1 advisor (thereby making the oligarchy) are among the only two ultra-wealthy who haven’t shifted their allegiance from GOP to the Dems in the last 3 decades. Virtually all of the others–Gates, Soros, Cuban, Benioff, Newmark, Bezos, Bourla, Zuckerberg, even benevolent grandpa Buffett–have shown all or nearly all allegiance to the donkeys for the better part of the last decade.
And, as we’ve learned, the legacy media that provides these people their understanding of the world got funded (either directly or through money laundering NGO middlemen), by a corrupt “little” agency called USAID, for which 100% of the people squealing right now about its dismantling…are (you guessed it) Democrats.
Lauren, back from vacation to tell us all about the populism movement that is Trump and all he’s going to do for the common man. This should be a joy.
Only two oligarchs in the Trump administration and everyone else is a Democrat? Nice to know that you’re still driven by wrong facts and lies as ever. Go look at the net worth of his Cabinet and get back to me on that one.
Good to see you posting again Lauren, haven’t seen many posts from you in a while.
Joe B is completely happy with all the abuse of the current system obviously.
The very existence of the programs is not abuse or fraud or waste. If they were going after “fraud and waste and abuse”, they’ve have brought in auditors and accountants.
I love the example that there won’t be anyone to inspect slaughterhouses any longer. I am glad preventing foodborne illnesses is an example of government fraud, waste, and abuse you’re supportive of.
It’s way past time for this house cleaning. Hopefully, this is just the beginning of great things to come.
Yes, long over due on having audits on the federal government. The waste and fraud is way out of hand.
I just hope they arrests the ones who have their hands in the cookie jar.
It looks like some of these younger democrats congressmen
Are running scared the way they are acting.
But they are being lead by the senior leadership.
But, of course, these aren’t “audits,” as any CPA would tell you. You don’t shut down an office, company, etc. before you study it. ” Audits are also transparent. They’ve not had enough time to study and prepare a line by line item review. I’ve not seen any reports. Have you?
Haven’t seen a single report. It’s all self-reported through Musk’s own websites and so far they haven’t provided any kind of evidence of “fraud” or “abuse.” They’re just illegally eliminating line items from Congressionally-approved budgets. I would welcome an audit by forensic auditors who have been awarded a competitively-bid contract, gone through vetting, and received the proper security clearances.
