Lets see how long it takes them to turn US Treasury Bonds from their AAA+++ (or whatever) status down to D.
"Lost"... yeah, "lost" it in their bank account.
But it made Elon money and broke shit, so it served it's unstated purpose.
STUPID Libtards thought DOGE would NOT be Efficient! They lost $500BILLION in ONLY a couple months! THATS efficiency!
Again. This is bad journalism. It’s not lost, it’s “lost.”
i don't understand your point. the article reports that the IRS is being disrupted by DOGE, and as a result, IRS agents are not able to do their jobs properly, which results in less tax money being received
No taxation without representation
So now DOGE has removed all these costs, will Americans not have to pay any taxes anymore? That's the conservative claim right? That taxes paid for all this stuff and Liberals were taxing everyone super high for it...
...so now taxes drop to zero for EVERYONE? Right?
Best I can do is drop the taxes on the rich. 👉👈🥺
oh, they'll still have to raise taxes on the lower half of earners, strip essential services bare--if they continue to exist at all, and pile on trillions to the national debt for that.
adding debt is 'free money' to them. not like they gotta pay it back..
I enjoyed the “we gotta lower the national debt for our kids” which quickly converted into “we gotta raise the national debt and we’re going to go into more debt” all in the same month.
They are planning on replacing income tax with a sales tax via tariffs. I wish I were kidding.
Yeah seriously what the fuck am I paying taxes for if there’s no government anymore?
don't
I was wondering why we haven't seen any actual data on how they've saved the US money yet. The answer is likely that they didn't.
They're just gonna make shit up like they always do. They've already tried overinflating their "savings", I'm sure they'll just do it again. If the first lie doesn't work, go BIGGER!
It's real easy to fake the data here, focus entirely on agency spend and completely ignore any savings the agencies themselves may have been responsible for. That can be hard to quantify anyways. They'll do that and right wing media will eat it up.
They, as serious and responsible managers with only the interests of their citizens at heart, chose to keep it in the most reliable, safe place possible, in their own pockets.
What are the odds that they saved the US money and kept it a total secret rather than to brag about it.
So low that I think this is a smoking gun that they failed to do so. We now know it didn't work out because they are quiet.
Why would you say "half" when you could say "500"?
500 Billion Dollars.
Doesn't half a trillion sound like more than 500 billion? Even though 500 billion is already a lot?
A trillion is larger than a billion, so half a trillion is a more rage bait headline.
Humans can’t fathom the vast distances of space. How are we going to fathom a trillion dollars?
IN A MONTH.
4 years of months left to go.
Maybe next time people can get off their fat fucking asses and vote. Or, if you did vote, maybe vote more intelligently next go around.
If we’re even allowed to vote ever again.
It'll be allowed, but they've just got to make sure only the "right people" get counted.
Ok, fine, libertarians, you won. I don’t have to pay my taxes now, right?
Libertarians will deny Trump is one of them, but Trump/DOGE isthe most relevant they have ever been
Thats the fun thing with fascist governments, before you'd get a fine and asked to pay back on a payment plan, and maaaybe get jail time if you reaally went out of your way to not pay your taxes year after year.
Now they can just come get ya in the middle of the night and throw you in jail for any number of reasons, not paying your taxes, being one of them. Oh and then maybe get deported because they took your ID's and passport and when your family members throw a stink and demand you released because you're a born and raised US citizen, oops, they can't find you in the system.
He also lost nearly a trillion dollars for Tesla. Tells the Tesla employees to keep their stock, hinting at how great things are and how much better they will be soon, and then the entire c-suite sells off around a hundred million in stock...
Elmo really is the best of all humans... At evaporating the wealth of others
I've said this for nearly s decade now, Elmo is a lyoni scammer who got lucky, that is all
They're very efficient at destroying the country.
This was always the plan.
Hmm, I wonder where it went /s
