What’s going to take a little time? We weren’t in a recession under Biden!

Crockett: "I understand when people say they are concerned about our debt, as they should be. But if you really want to look at the problem, it's probably with the Trump administration. We know that that administration, the last time they were in, ran our debt up an additional $8 trillion."

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.”

Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

I can tell you that the vast majority of civil servants I’ve had the honor of working with are dedicated and hardworking.

For the richest person in the world to be given a bully pulpit in the Oval Office to impugn their integrity is beyond shameful. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/fraud

As the home of the Mayo Clinic, we know that medical research saves lives.

Minnesota Republicans should stand up for the health and wellbeing of our state.

Elon Musk has ZERO receipts for his claims of “fraud” in government agencies.

But there seem to be a LOT of receipts showing that those same government agencies were investigating or regulating Musk and his companies.

Elon Musk has been attacking USAID — because USAID has been investigating Musk

Why? Because USAID paid for the Starlink units Musk claimed to give Ukraine in 2022 (!!!)

Some ended up with Russia — so USAID opened an inquiry

Meanwhile Musk started speaking to Putin in late 2022

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.”

It’s who our government is for.

Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires, including the richest person in the world — or for the rest of us?
