And yet everyone is going crazy about DOGE

u/Aggleclack 17d ago

Considering this was a municipality, that isn’t relevant and potentially federal intervention could’ve prevented this.

u/Waffennacht 17d ago

-_-; because gross incompetence, corruption, and misuse is clearly ONLY a issue with municipalities and not every single organization with access to money

u/Aggleclack 17d ago

Yeah that wasn’t my point lol. More like “not their jurisdiction”

I dont support musk or doge but the crazy thing to me is, they haven't found any because they genuinely aren't looking for it. Superfluous military contracts, industry kickbacks, lobbying, govt contracts, all sources of extreme grift and misuse in our govt but doge only looks at shit that benefits the proletariat

Well, the fact Musk himself has mentioned "fraud" many times, yet doesn't show anything to back it up, makes your point a little moot.

I think that directly supports the point I'm making. They aren't actually trying to find fraud. They just want to cut things that benefits the lesser thans.

Hey now, their word search for “black” was very effective

The idea that DOGE is anything but gross incompetence, corruption, and misuse is no longer even a viable opinion. OBVIOUSLY, nobody wants the government to waste money. DOGE is illegally cutting things they don't agree with, which will hurt far more people with lower income than it will help anyone. It is all even worse than that though because Trump's tax cuts for the rich will cost taxpayers way, way more than anything DOGE could possibly cut. It is MATH.

Check out Dean Withers or Parkergetajob on TikTok or YouTube. They will debate with Trump supporters and inform them where MAGA propaganda hooked them.

u/jacky75283 17d ago

You're conflating waste, fraud, and abuse with incompetent leadership and bad short-sighted decisions. If DOGE is designed to get rid of that then DOGE would get rid of Donald Trump.

"every single organization with access to money" is corrupt, so letting the riches man in the world have control will do what? Make things less corrupt?
