If you take all the money DOGE “saved” so far and returned it to the American Tax payer, that’s like what, almost a dollar? Probably less? (It’s not even their money to approve go send back to the American tax payer, it’s never going to happen)
Just like no tax on tips, or no tax on social security, or that last one, no tax at all! For those MAGA that bought into all this, there is a potential bright side… you may get the no tax on Social Security, because there will be no Social Security.
Ain’t that a Ponzi scheme basically but with good will instead of cash inputs? “Oh yeah just keep sending that goodwill my way and I’ll return it in the form of a lot of money down the line… suckers.”
Yes, the big returns are coming: to the wealthy suck-ups and oligarchs. You will still be paying taxes on tips and your social security. Anyone who believes anything trump says at this point should be institutionalized.
he doesn't need to CONSIDER this.... he stole from the people. People worked hard for their money. DOGE, MUSKRAT or anyone else has NO RIGHT to stop refunds.
He'll have his name as the signatory as he did with Covid checks. Many supporters thought the $ was coming out of his pocket. It worked to help him get reelected.
Sadly this was an effective tool used for the Trump base last time (and they know it). Even more disheartening knowing the magnitude of the coffers that will be looted while these distracting distributions are made.
Only the cult members will believe that Trump will be sending them cheques in the coming days. I guess it's one way to take their minds off rising cost of living.
They would have to come up with like 2T dollars just for the 5k Elonia is throwing out there. But I wouldn’t expect a Trumper to be able to do this kind of math.
#trumpelon will tell people they are getting a refund, and then tax it, then apply the rest towards NEXT years taxes, then forget all about it by never recording the refund.
I mean, are we even sure they’ve found massive amounts of fraud? Have we seen evidence? I heard Elon say he found 10’s of millions of deceased receiving SS benefits, of course not true. I hope the R’s aren’t getting their hopes up. I mean if they did find $, I don’t believe they’d share it anyway.
When you buy yourself a nice car before paying off your max'ed out credit cards you are classified as a financial moron. Trump and Musk are financial morons
Time for PPP Round 2! If you missed out on your free princess truck or ATV the first time, start picking out your fake business name now. Landscaping is always good for excusing the purchase of $90k worth of vehicles. Your cats can now be your employees!
A content creator on YouTube did the math for this...everyone thinks they're getting $4k. Even if everything goes well...the most people will get is less than $200... and that's per tax payer. Not sure how this would work with joint filers.
Bribery to sell our country to our enemies give away human right give away all our protection that made us America give away all 3 million people that protect us from catastrophic attack everyday.
Tiny refund, if any, to American taxpayers is just a smoke screen for the huge tax breaks for 1% and corporations. Plus, 6 trillion added to the debt ceiling.
This is how our gov't now operates. 1. Random guy tweets to Musk about DOGE refund check. 2. Musk says he'll forward it to Trump. 3. Trump says sure the same day. 4. Congress left with the mess.
Trump has now promised the DOGE money to three different efforts: 1. Decrease the debt and deficit, 2. Tax cuts to billionaires, and 3. Tax refund checks. Wouldn't love to be in a Republican Congressman's mind when he learned there is now a third place he has to distribute the very limited funds.
If only they were familiar with math because ss monthly paychecks can run up to $2k and they are about to cut that. A one time payment of $1k is not a steal they think it is and forget/forgive ss is gone
MAGA firmly believes he is sending them all $8k. All over tik tok. The greatest thing that scam artist ever did was signing those stim checks during Covid. Its the reason these young dumdums vote for him.
I am not kidding. White House spokesmen just talked about the refunds in a press conference. They said 20% will go to the deficit. 20% will go back to taxpayers. They DIDN’T say where 60% will go.
According to their own rationale, they'd have to borrow the money to do that. About $1.6 trillion more debt to give everyone the $5k each that Elmu suggested. Not that that will stop them if it buys off some voters. It's not about saving money, after all.
So many questions. Who’s getting this money? How many? Where is the money coming from? There are 258,000,000 adults in the US. If every one received 5000 like they’re saying, that’s 1.3 trillion dollars.
It's been this way in Alaska for awhile where the governor tries to hit a button to make the PFD bigger. It worked for Palin, hasn't been as effective for Dunleavy.
They will be disappointed to learn that most of us are not as greedy as they are. For most of us, our allegiance is not for sale. I suppose that’s something most of them can’t understand.
I ain't holding my breath about big returns or any other kind of bonus, etc, to be sent to old average citizens such as I. This smells like some kind of terrible scam.
"We're writing very powerful checks that will be sent very powerfully in two weeks. The women will be very happy. Everybody will be very powerfully rich."
Trumps free money that they voted for…but it was because of the pandemic he botched!!! My state demanded their $18,000 plus for my covid unemployment and im still fighting it despite the fact that they took the entire money market funds left to me when my father passed in the tune of $11,000.
#1 they won’t do it
#2 even if they did, it doesn’t actually reverse the recessionary effects of laying off thousands of federal workers and slashing the social safety net
#3 also if they did do it, injecting massive amounts of cash into the economy devalues the currency and is hugely inflationary
Oh! Maybe disbursement will only be made through a Musk payment system? Then EVERYONE gets the app and connects it to their bank.
(Said with a little sarcasm, but… 🤯)
That's it. That's all that got. Musk & Trump's bullshit about a 5 grand stimmy would cost over a trillion dollars
That would keep some billionaires from getting their full share tax cuts
We know that ain't happenin
It is my understanding that they are talking about: 20% to the taxpayers, 20% to pay down the deficit. No one knows what they might plan to do with the remaining 60% - which is the real story.
Steal the jobs of American citizens, take the money, give a pittance back to other citizens to shut them up. What a deliciously evil plan they boast among themselves.
All the idjits are going to try to throw this in our face. They’re never about caring for society as a whole, only about how it affects them on a personal level.
If we tell them to hold their breath in anticipation of the checks hitting their pockets, would that be considered premeditated murder?
Any promise by Musk for tax money returned from DOGE should make you think of the scene from 1989's Batman where the Joker gave away money. In the original script (still in the comic adaptation) the dollar bills are all fake.
Say what it is--a bribe. The shiny object to distract Americans as Musk and Trump raid taxpayer coffers to enrich themselves; Musk with even more bloated contracts, Trump with the money to develop Gaza into a Trump resort.
Does that mean he's going to steal from the poor to give to the rich?
Resistance isn't futile.

This little scheme to buy the moron masses' approval will be in crypto currency to further enrich the filthy rich. (The crypto they buy by selling gold from Ft Knox, which Trump is salivating over even more than his Big Macs)
What are the odds anyone who cashes this ‘refund’ will have to use Elon’s new payment processing system (coming soon) on his crappy platform ha what are the odds.
Yes I can imagine the refunds. They'll come in the form of the stupid gold shoes that he couldn't sell, Don Junior's books, Melania's books, his books and some trading cards that aren't really trading cards just pictures we can see online, all of which he sold to the government There's your refund😂😂

Ok, offering you pittance as bribe to go along with all this
tax checks, but they paid more in taxes.
Scammed taxes.
If it made sense, they wouldn't be republicans :/
Elon is getting billions in refunds on the zero taxes he paid.
We get 20% of our money back and the top 1% gets 80%.
His cult will be ecstatic to get the check; they fall for his bull$hit cons every time.
So sad 😞
Another deal with the Saudi’s today in DC
Another CONflict of Interest 💰
It's so obvious.
I mean, if it bore any resemblance to economic reality, this plan would actually be halfway cunning. But since it doesn't, it isn't.
And you'll end up on the next ICS episode of "Running Man."

not sure it's up to him to decide on that 'refund' either, but hey...
