Washington Post is reporting that the US Gov't program to send free COVID tests to households will be shut down tonight, and the remaining tests destroyed. If you haven't already ordered yours in the latest batch (autumn 2024's) it's super quick & easy, price $0.00 covidtests.gov

DOGE claimed it saved $8 BILLION in 1 contract. In reality it was $8 Million (i.e. how much Musk's companies get in federal tax dollars EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE YEAR) To put $8M vs $8B in perspective: •8 million seconds is 93 DAYS •8 billion seconds is 254 YEARS DOGE is 99.9999999875% INACCURATE
