“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.”

Beyond parody.

The irony of people doing this fake virtue signaling (after an entire campaign rife with fainting spells over the cost of eggs), is that their political deity is famous for manufacturing his clothing outside the US and for failing to pay American contractors.

Went grocery shopping last night. Prices are going up so fast that some items did not have a price under them. I spent $160 for 4 bags of groceries. The milk went up $1 a gallon since 2 weeks ago. I can afford it. A lot of my coworkers can't. Citrus prices are next with no one to pick them.

Throwing the Nazi salute doesn’t make you a funny troll. It makes you a fucking Nazi.
Father Calvin Robinson finished his remarks at the National Pro-Life Summit by throwing an Elon Musk salute, much to the delight of the crowd.

The President is asking rhetorical questions about what federal government aircraft was doing, as if there's someone else who is supposed to have the answer. This is his responsibility. If he doesn't even know the answers, it's because he and his unqualified appointees are incompetent.
“Commander in Chief” jumps to throw military crew under the bus before any details are known. Coward.

We no longer have a leader in the White House but a conman who’s #1 goal is always to dodge responsibility.

Next time a R or D says “respect the office” remind them the President himself doesn’t.

Free "modest proposal" for Denmark.

Call Trump's bluff. Demand $100B as a downpayment for negotiations over Greenland.

Then use it to start hiring all the scientists whose NIH grants have been frozen.

Steal America's scientific expertise while Trump is yelling at icebergs.
