Musk’s DOGE Chainsaw Massacre Ended With Higher Spending
DOGE reportedly double-counted its cuts, exaggerated them, or took credit for contracts that had been axed under President Biden.

The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.
Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.

How much are you going to pay doctors?
Which current hospitals get shut down ?
What happens if doctors opt out of the system ? Who is going to invest in new curative therapies. You ?
How much in taxes pr year do you think it's possible to collect if you took every penny from billionaires?

Half the amount that everyone currently pays could provide universal healthcare. Private health companies don’t need to exist. Eliminate them. And use your collective buying power and economies of scale to get it done. Every cent of their profit is healthcare denied.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.
This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

And I think that’s the whole point - to weaken U.S. diplomacy. Trump’s entire presidency seems to be about weakening America. And he’s doing a great job of it. That’s why Putin & the world’s other dictators are smiling.
The Trump administration has ordered nearly 30 career U.S. ambassadors to leave their posts by mid-January — an unprecedented mass recall with no stated reason.
Diplomats warn it will hollow out U.S. foreign policy just as Trump claims he wants diplomacy, not conflict.
