Biden was the most progressive President in decades and one of the most decent human beings to serve in this position, so your "he is a heinous human" speaks much more loudly about your (lack of) humanity than his.
I'm not looking to get between you two. Netanyahu is 100% committing genocide. He's a genocidal maniac! He won't stop until he kills all of the Palestinian people. Biden played an unfortunate part of this, but it wouldn't matter who was Pres the US would do the same thing. #banAIPAC so we can stop ✋🏽
Netanyahu is a racist. He'd ethnically cleansed Palestinians if he could but he can't (even with Trump's support that "pro-Palestinians" helped him to get). He doesn't care about Arab lives. But he has no goal of exterminating Arabs (unlike Hamas' goal for Jews).
You’re a fucking loser and this speaks so much more loudly about you completely neglecting his role in helping Israel commit genocide you piece of shit
You might have been right if there was genocide. But as the things stand there is no genocide - Hamas failed. And while Israel has been far from blameless in this brutal war, genocide it is not.
Trump's cabinet is behind him because he specifically picked sycophants who don't know their areas. In his first term, they kept warning him that this or that was a bad idea, so he chose loyalists who couldn't do that because they have no knowledge of what is supposed to be their purview.
Perhaps paying Elon Musk $8 million per day to shut down every regulatory agency investigating his businesses costs too much to offset DOGE cutting the phone lines at the Social Security Administration and firing veteran crisis counselors?
While I completely believe this, considering we're talking 'bout Trump... That chart looks quite dubious. The ribbon is almost exactly the same just slightly canted up for this year.
The primary mission for DOGE is not to save money or identify waste. It is the collection of the vast amounts of data the federal government has on each and everyone of us. AI will be used to exact whatever data is required to exert pressure on the victim or group. Data is the real power today.
Elmo is such a Super Genius. He laid off all the workers at Twitter, now the app is worth 1/10th of what he paid. Republicans say, "that sounds good! Come do the same to the country!"
As The New Republic’s Greg Sargent wrote last year.
“this will be the second time Trump inherits a good economy from a Dem president, the second time Trump takes credit for his inheritance, and quite possibly the second time he destroys it.”
All those people fired, all those contracts canceled, all the aid canceled and all those people harmed and killed and his deficit still higher. I'm so glad musk solved waste fraud and abuse....
Yeah Biden brought it down and now they’re claiming credit of course. I’m sure they’ll blame Biden when the tariffs raise the inflation rate through the roof.
He let up off of those electronics and that’s a big fucking deal. Buy stocks for one day. Don’t be stupid after his tweet. Well I can’t tell you how much I made but it was a considerable amount after last week when he said to buy stocks.
The chart is sourced from the Wall Street Journal. It shows a comparison of Biden and Trump, on their spending for the same time periods during their presidencies.
DOGE will cost us billions in set-backs and disbanded programs that we will reinstate as soon as a sane person who wants to help this country is in office.
Doge is stealing our money 2 ways from sunday, the budget is 7% higher this year, than Pres. Bidens was the same time last year. Those sicko bastards are dismantling our gov, and at the same time collecting 8million daily of our tax money, and awarding himself new contracts. Muzkrat is despicable.
True, but it’s kind of a post truth era so it’s not clear their supporters even care as long as they oppress the folks the Far-Right want to oppress 🤦♀️

I look 👀 at this as quick sand the quagmire of goofball gaslighting. Scam after scam why spend money like that seams wasteful and weird. We definitely have the weird fucks on the second administration super stupid Mokes Morons Obviously Knowledge Empty
It’s a heist rules their rules to vote and get your money that you paid into all your life and your medical payments are triggered to social security so this is going to put the many on the line for the fight. Retarded Right flinging the platform of lies and deception won’t help smart minds working
Doge was a scam from day one. Musk bought the presidency for Trump and in turn trump gave musk to destroy any government agency investigating his companies.
DOGE is a monumental failure . It saved nothing (on the contrary ) and only led to destruction, chaos and suffering. It is an abhorrent abuse of power and a huge lie to the public.
Can‘t believe that republicans are still using it to justify their unethical tax cuts. It was never about the debt.
It's not just the not saving, it's their insatiable greed and corruption that we are paying for with our money. It's literally painfully obvious, and is monumentally frustrating.
They never will and it never was about that. The extra cash they find goes right into their greedy pockets or sent to Russia. It’s a scam, republicans are a scam.
And Musk is claiming that his "savings" is from eliminating waste and fraud. This is 100% a lie. You don't find waste and fraud within days of firing employees and dismantling agencies. All they did was create chaos and fired many key ppl, including scientists. DOGE is a joke.
But we ARE getting less service for our taxes (libraries, national parks, museums, education, public radio, social security help, science, weather ----basically all the good stuff we want our taxes to pay for. Also, paying millions to provide security for all the new morons isn't saving anything.
Biden's deficits helped put people to work and built the economy for ordinary citizens. Whereas Trump's deficit is to line his own pockets and those of his billionaires club.
Simply put, you’ve been put through Elon’s DOGE hell. Your services authorized by congress have been gutted illegally. And this administration is still spending more money than Biden. WTAF?!
Under Biden the money he acquired was going to help the American ppl.
While under tRump the money is going to musk, tRumps minions and tRump’s golfing. This is not yet counting the tax scam congress and tRump want to pass for the RICH. The republicans are robbing us in clear daylight.
Yes, but this time they figured out the clever new trick of making our debt bonds look unreliable, forcing us to raise the interest rates we offer on those who buy our debt, thus making the interest that we pay on the debt a bit more expensive than it normally would be.
Saving us money isn't their goal! It is what they SAID their goal was, but the REAL goal is to eliminate any obstructions to Musks businesses and to BREAK Democracy per Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin's plan.
When I first saw D.O.G.E. i thought of the Doge (Leader) Enrico Dandolo of Christian Venice...he tricked the Crusaders into sacking Christian Constantinople, from which Venice benefited...there's a lesson in there in reference to "maga"...
I don't know if it can be called spending, it's stealing really.
It's not being spent on America, It's being spent on bombing people for Israel and helping Putin.
They are also declaring people dead in the Social Security system. How many mistakes will be made there? It is very difficult to be declared undead especially if there are no agents left.
They are proud that they 'moved a button' in the IRS system in 71 minutes. That fast means there was no testing of the change. With their record of 100% mistakes, this is a worry.
Next the #BlueMafia nazis will complain about their cult's insider trading in violation of emoluments clause. Just kidding. You don't give a damn about laws, just so your kill cult can KILL.
Watching China unload all of the TBills /Bonds they own is gonna be fun. Your iPhone will be more expensive soon. Not cause of tariffs. But cause the value of the dollar will go
Down.
Cons never save tax payer dollars. They just spend extravagantly on things they value like military, defense, tax cuts for the rich. And they “save” by cutting services they don’t value like healthcare, support for veterans, etc.
Let’s also not forget that the deep cuts to the IRS and cutting immigrants out of paying taxes will result in hundreds of billions of dollars of lost receipts. In addition to the hundreds of billions of dollars that the top 1% owe the IRS but do not pay every year.
We know Elon is not capable of running his own Businesses what makes us assume he could do anything that could actually help with the Finances of the American people??? He is full of bunk.
Tax cuts plus increases to the federal budget means an increase in the federal deficit.
Tariffs are a regressive tax increase that will impact low and middle income ppl the most. Tariff revenue will be used to provide the ultra wealthy with tax cuts. The average Joe funds the rich getting richer
Can you believe it? TurboTax doesn't even have a way for me to claim my "Dodgy tax credit" that I'm sure I'm entitled to now that the government is so much more efficient!
Not a single referral to the DOJ for all the "fraud" they alledgedly found.
Not. A. Single. One.
And even when you take DOGE's claimed savings as factual (they still include some of their miscalculations on the website), they're still way, way short of the promised target.
And Frankly, even if it's Democrats after all, they SHOULD be indicted.
But keep in mind that money spent by congress is money spent legally, even if you don't like WHAT it's being spent on.
Worry more about the many ways Trump is overstepping his authority with every single EO.
Doge wants to be the government workforce, not root out waste or fraud. Musk is the waste and fraud. He needs a one-way ticket to any country that will take him, and to be fully barred from U.S. political interference.

Let us know when our reps will start using our Criminal Justice System while we continue to be pillaged, kidnapped & killed by the same Criminal repeatedly committing public pre-planned crimes kept in POLITICAL COURTS FOR 9 YRS!
When you miscellaneously fire government workers and find very little, if any fraud, things become very inefficient very fast. Inefficiency costs money and we are seeing it already.
Doge is installing spyware. Of course, everyone pretends it's not true. Why else would they need to see so much private information on Americans? Easiest way to tag dissenters for future actions.
They don’t get it and never will. I could take bets on how many MAGATs look at this chart and think it’s a good thing. Because it’s green! And pointing upwards, to his name! They aren’t even audio/ visual learners but the ones Dubya & DeVos “left behind”.
And, I believe most of us anticipated this. Conformation is always a good thing. Do you think it will matter to the people that could do so much to change this? We had issues before, but I sure would love to have our Pre-Trump country back hands down. I wake with anxiety everyday now.
Correction. DOGE will save the 3%ers a shit ton of taxes if he shuts down our government enough to stop all government benefits from going out. The resulting chaos & havoc will be catastrophic & unimaginable. His partner in crime already crashed the ENTIRE WORLD'S STOCK MARKET FOR FUN & PROFIT.
Two problems:
- DOGE = acronym = all-caps
- Raw dollars is meaningless here. You want percentage increase. This chart does not factor in inflation. If $1 buys a car or $1 buys a loaf of bread, that changes the meaning of a "$1" increase.
Also, DOGE lies => https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-lowers-doges-estimated-savings-again-2025-4
Doge is costing more than it’s saving it’s all just a scam. Trump got played by Elon just like he is getting played by world leaders. And after another disastrous week Trumps golfing yet again.
Probably the most unsurprising post I've seen this week. In fact, I'll go so far as predicting that next month Trump will outspend every other president in history.

1) What was going so seriously wrong that we needed this? I'm still not sure what cataclysm or asteroid this is supposed to deflect?
2) How did all this sloppiness and waste get past GOP watch dogs in Congress? How did they miss recipients twice Chuck Grassley's age? Almost.
