Ready for the protest tomorrow.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?

Has the federal budget being discussed taken into account all of the “savings” from the layoffs and cuts to so many departments? And the subsequent decrease in federal taxes citizens should be expected to pay given the decrease in scope of the federal government needs to be included in the budget.

If they want to decrease the size of the federal government than logically, we can expect to see a decrease in our Federal taxes. This has to be pressed. Each time there are layoffs we must demand to know how and when the American people will see a proportional decrease in Federal taxes paid.

For each department that has layoffs and cuts we need to be asking how those “savings” will be translated into lower federal taxes. Please media, Congress and all national leaders please press this point.

If the Federal government is being cut and all of the “waste” is being removed, when will we be hearing of the reciprocal cuts to our Federal taxes. Can the media please start framing questions to the administration this way?

This new complaint against DOGE is truly cranked up to 11 from start to finish. What a way to start a lawsuit storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... h/t @mikesacks.bsky.social
