As I told @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social, the real mission of DOGE isn't to rein in "waste and inefficiency".
It's to gut the social safety net and eviscerate protections for working people.

Sorry to have missed you. I am sure you were wonderful despite the hosts.
Over at Fox News, they're lining up to support Rule by Musk--no commenters are bothered that he's filthy rich, unelected, and arrogant.
He also has no faith in his own companies.
No brain implant.
Never been in orbit let alone space.
He's a coward.

I don’t know Why we aren’t screaming “Treason!!!” from every rooftop.
I want to see the fear and pain in his eyes when he struggles to keep his intestines from popping out of the gaping hole in his abdomen.
The Department of Grifter Enrichment
NEED to keep it!
We are actively participating in the demise of Our Democracy. Quit treating this as normal, make it 🛑!!!!
Where's their empathy for the poor? Right, the election is over...
If people are expending all their time and energy just trying to make it through, they won't notice what the elite and rich are doing...
Why would you want cut off your source of revenue? Everyone spends money & buys stuff. Too much pain, people revolt.
Massive tax cuts for the wealthy
Privatization
Removal of protections (deregulation)
Austerity for low income individuals and the poor— cutting, privatizing, or abolishing social programs/safety nets.
The rich thrive, everyone else experiences 'hardship'

What do you think?
They think efficiency means low cost regardless of output.
Don't forget the unforgivable white women that were also complicit.
Signed: A white woman that's real pissed at other white women. We expected this from men, not from you.
Why do we ruin e v e r y t h i n g?
I used to have some small amount of faith in the women, but cripes.
At 58k workers, SSA is at lowest staffing levels since 90s and it is all delays and errors due to short staffing.
We got here by Tea Party/Freedom Caucus strategy of never passing a real budget and using shutdowns to make emergency stopgap austerity funding the permanent rule.
Borrowing from the “entitlements” is the downfall of the entitlements.
And then to usher in another Great Depression where millions starve & the mega billionaires raid the Treasury & seize what little land, resources, & wealth the former middle classes had left.
The Second Gilded Age—complete with massive wealth inequality & Jim Crow segregation—is at hand.
They've taller a big step in that direction with the weakening child labor laws
Everybody but the ones at the top loses, but our words haven't changed anything
We need a better way to communicate
And pod casts won't do it
They are preaching to the choir
So no one saw you
Since the House controls the purse strings, good luck with that (not really).
Musk et al need the rest of us to live in absolute fear and servitude for their vast wealth to have any real meaning.

They're all republicans. Some maga
However they’re acting like venture capitalists and will just strip and sell whatever they can.
If they cut the entire military budget, shut it down entirely, they'd still have more than a trillion left to cut.
Crash the entire world economy.
(And you'd have to do those while keeping the SS & Medicare taxes coming in.)
In reality, yeah. You'd crash the US economy and that would crash the rest of the world.
On the fundamental "Revenue comes in, expenses go out"
level, it does.
On the accounting fiction level, cutting SS payouts would actually increase the deficit, since the Trust Fund would buy more Treasuries.
You’ll need everyone who oppose it to organise and unionise.
They made unions illegal once because they’re terrified of that; and even then it couldn’t stop the workers.
