Trump and Musk claim they’re saving billions through the DOGE’s mass purge of federal bureaucracy, but government spending has actually gone up since Inauguration Day.

Oh my goodness! Shocker.
It’s expensive to just abruptly do the dumbest moves possible. We’d be better off with a drunken sailor spending our budget than this. Thanks Trumpers!
Why should they? They know they won't be held accountable. Trump is doing their dirty work for them. It's a wet dream to shrink the fed government so that it fits in a bathtub and can be drowned.
Are the subtracting out the cost of the DOGE employees and the lawsuits when they calculate savings?
Are they considering the workers that can't be efficient because people/equipment they depended upon are gone?
It is fairly obvious that the goal is not to stop spending. It is about controlling the flow of what is spent and to what it is being spent on. I am sure that will allow certain parts of that expenditure to disappear, but not in the way you think.
Of course the American people are paying a price!
#ElonBreaksAllHisToys is getting paid boat loads. And the amount of the cuts & money isn't honestly being reported.
Another big issue is thousands of people so far have lost their jobs! Do you hear him talking about any jobs being created?!
Duh.
(Sorry, it’s a miserable time for Americans who KNOW all he does is lie and cheat, yet he got in again and somehow it’s even worse than anticipated. This feeling of hating having been right is new…)
I would like to know where those saved Millions and Billions are - are they in the Treasury, are they in private accounts? Where is all that money they "saved"?

It’s really time that the media started to report on Trump and the lead members of his cabal in real world terms!
Liar, simple, inarticulate, confused, mistaken, strange, idiotic, dangerous, misguided, misinformed, stupid, rude, bizarre……and so on!
Such honesty will help us all!

Just wanted you to know that your voice matters.
