DOGE Discoveries

LA had twice as much commuter rail track pre-WW2 as it does today. It was world class. There's a lot of reasons it all died out post-WW2. The fresh interstate system thing, the suburbia thing, GM, cough. Freedom, baby.
Now LA has the worst public transit and traffic in the country. You are forced to drive in a nightmare. NYC has subways. LA is fucked.
The infrastructure was there and it was ripped out. Same as in many cities, but there's no better example than LA. They wish they could have a do-over. -

When Atlanta politicians get low on funds, they bring up expanding light rail to the burbs. $10M for a study, $7M for a survey- all money that gets funneled back to themselves.

Russia spent $180,000 on Facebook ads!

Tick tick tick

Not surprised. Swamp creature born of the swamp

Here’s what I’m wondering about these outlandish money drops, too.
I’m listening to Mike Benz’s pod on this now. He’s been on this stuff for a lot longer than the DOGE audit.

Politico is German-owned and the NYT is in part Mexican-owned by Carlos controlled shares and attacked board members.
That’s our foreign media and they do no more than rewrite Democrat press releases as “news.”
-
huh?
-
-
Without false equivalencies, you gals would have no whatabouts at all.
-
Ironic.
-
The only false equivalency is that Elon isn't fucking over the country. The point about your hypocrisy remains
You have no problem with unelected officials telling folks what to do
-
Ironic.
@HHusky, that’s how one uses the word “irony” for impact, you crying little bitch.
-
So far Elon is only exposing what's already there.
Trump/Vance/Rubio are doing the heavy lifting of actually fighting the legal side of execution.
I know that flies in the face of "Elon is privatizing the government and buying it up" big brain take.
I hope the left keeps quadrupling down on "but who will think of the bureaucrats!!"

The DOGE discoveries are not just about "wasted" taxpayer funds. The real story, the 5 alarm fire, is that USAID was literally funding an entirely hand crafted pseudo-reality. Not just in America but all over the world.
You were robbed to fund global psychological operations.
-Buying off media outlets
-Pushing advertiser Boycotts against X and Rumble as they attempted to decrease censorship
(AKA narrative control)
-Pushing war propaganda
-Funding opposition groups in foreign lands to foment revolutions
-Funding lawfare against the former president of the united states and his supporters
(I could go on for an hour)People get caught up on the "$100K to study cocaines' impact on chihuahua" stories. That is not the headline here.
The headline here is:
The US government robbed you blind in an effort to control your mindThat's about as big as it gets.

You know who else hires convicted hackers?

This is if you believe the line items as fair and true.
The reality is probably much much worse.
-
I don’t believe the line items are true. I think a lot of them were a running joke to see who could come up with the most absurd fake item to fund.
$20 million for Sesame Street in Iraq might be the winner. I wonder which Dem actually ended up with that money.

There’s a mix of legitimately good programs, clandestine activities that would horrify most framed as something else, and pure grift where money is just consumed by board members with maybe a golf weekend in Palm Springs for a strategy session where the only topic is raising more money next year.
-
We need to make the good programs stand alone and park the omnibus
-
A mix ?
.
-
Make them pay it back!
BidenBros will use up a gallon of Vaseline over this one.
-
A mix of 5% good, 30% horrific and 65% grift. Something like that.
-
Clawback! Claw the fuck back!
-
-
That’s in the horrific category.
