Even if it wasn't fuzzy math, it's fuzzy logic.

People who need to be are not being reached by our posts. How do we get our opinions to folks outside our personal media silos??

barbiejo1.bsky.social•2 days ago

Keep calling them out, Scott!
I'd like to see a wall of bills for trumps "expenses."

Math is hard

Also need to offset the “savings” w/ costs of all the lawsuits & increase in unemployment benefit claims. Douches thought firing for “poor performance” wld eliminate unemployment cost then realized their error & are trying to fire for “skills don’t match needs.” Still vulnerable to lawsuits. Idjits

DOGE lies, cheats, steals, and gaslights Americans all while its leader is the biggest welfare recipient in the USA.

The government is not a business! You can own a business, but you can’t own government!

Same attention to detail that has our personal data and control of the airspace? Cool cool

It's almost like they're either liars or they have no idea what they're doing.

oksir.bsky.social•2 days ago

Both

I’d say both. So irresponsible and lazy.

It’s a fiasco

That’s what accountants, controllers, & others to confirm & verify.

bobcatsizzle.bsky.social•2 days ago

A lying nazi, who would have thought.

macpohl.bsky.social•2 days ago

They don't care about reality, only the perception of reality by dupes and cult members. Let's hope SCOTUS comes to their senses soon.

wisewonders.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yeah, that’s a LIE!! How about Musk give back the money he makes off all of his contracts!!!

i-squirrel.bsky.social•2 days ago

If only there was a 3rd branch of checks & balances in charge of the nations wallet. Oh yeah, they’re busy trying to get a Trump holiday passed.

It's not about "efficiency". It never was. It's about destroying the US Government. Dept. of Government Extinction.

jjtubs65.bsky.social•2 days ago

These dumb fucks understand gov't spending in the same way that rFK jR understands science.

yycshanni.bsky.social•2 days ago

So, they can even use a simple spreadsheet? Bode well

trappiste.bsky.social•2 days ago

These aren’t receipts, these aren’t mistakes, they are regime propaganda, and journalists should be educated enough to recognize that.

thedavidd.bsky.social•2 days ago

"the force of super geniuses" doesn't know the difference between 8 million and 8 billion.

Sounds about right for this administration.

highestbitter.bsky.social•2 days ago

Get 5 Calls App, look up a zip code in a red state, call the red state legislators (I use Google Voice phone - look up random address on zillow is asked for address), FULL FRONTAL ASSAULT ON REPUBLICANS! Congress in recess - call local offices & go to Town Halls. RAISE SOME CAIN! https://5calls.org/

i-squirrel.bsky.social•2 days ago

You don’t say? President Musk and VP Trump talking w/o receipts and incomplete data, data analysis? It’s not like either don’t have a history of baffling w/ bs instead of dazzling w/ brilliance.

montyreborn.bsky.social•2 days ago

They don’t care. It’s the whole “if we say it enough times they’ll believe it” scam. Unfortunately, his gullible minions will.

zomneydomnitz.bsky.social•2 days ago

You'd think his supercomputers could do simple math.

rockymtnview.bsky.social•2 days ago

Math is something at which AI is shockingly poor.

Erong thinks AI can save us trillions!

Dodgy DOGE Digits

$55B in cuts claimed the DOGE website.
Massive errors show that numbers not right.
Confusing billion with million? Quite a laugh.
Like exploding SpaceX rockets. Bad math.

yammz.bsky.social•2 days ago

Typical trumpusk being and making zeros into more of a bunch of nothing. Inflating numbers when convenient. They claim 100bil "confiscated" but kinda sorta can show receipts for about 20bil. Their flying numbers.Who is watching this robbery?

rankenory.bsky.social•1 day ago

More likely only 2 billion:

NPR's analysis found that, of its verifiable work completed so far, DOGE has cut just $2 billion in spending — less than three hundredths of a percent of last fiscal year's federal spending.

Musk and Trump lied? I’m shocked!

Did we think he was being factual ? It's all a scam.

Geez, good thing they don't gave the nuclear codes ...

"Hey, BigBalls, it that a 3 or an 8?"

gr8day4bsbll.bsky.social•2 days ago

An error is an innocent mistake. The wrong data here is more likely intentional overstating of the amounts, to try to support an otherwise unsupportable position. That’s called “lying”, not an “error”.

matteofights.bsky.social•2 days ago

Of course, it's overstated. Main tenet of corporate reporting, always err on the side that benefits you.

Errors? They completely made stuff up. Read TechDirt.

Fuzzy Math for sure!!

"Think of Congress and its budget as the debt-ridden dad on the way to buy a $250,000 Ferrari on the credit card, and DOGE is the $2 off gas card he used along the way," Riedl said. "It's great that he saved $2 on gas, but I think his wife may be more concerned about the $250,000 car."

How can they claim to being doing any sort of forensic accounting, when 1) they're hackers, not accountants, and 2) their accounting errors clearly show they have trouble with basic math. Geniuses they are not.
