PBS newshour interviewed a Texas congressman yesterday and asked if any federal employees were fired in his district and he said he didn't know. Then they pulled the # and it was 100 people. They're flying blind riding on vibes.

DOGE is not and was never about savings

Moving past this falsehood will allow for much sharper attacks
