I really wish Vivek had run instead of Trump. He was smart to get out of DOGE when he did. I think he saw the writing on the wall.

He is a very smart guy, but Ron DeSantis is still the best Governor in the country by a MILE and should have been our President.
But too many are captivated by carnival barkers to think clearly.

The US gubermint is just a giant cluster fuck. And the enemies external and within just love it. Let's just pray for a meteor....a big one.

Let me clarify.
I voted for Trump 3X
I did NOT join a cult. We must call him out when he fucks up like anyone else.
He's human and fallible. Right now he's fowling a LOT.
Literally 180 degrees on some very big issues. Its weird and suspect.

Why is a traitor who worked against Trump, has since had his security clearance pulled, in Ukraine speaking to how they should handle Russia negotiations?
Hint: Because he's a Deep State CIA FUCK and they're working out in the open now and not even trying to hide it.

Well, it's somewhat encouraging to see/hear this...
More encouraging news, but I won't believe anything until it actually happens and is DONE.

DOGE found roughly $175 Billion in waste/fraud/abuse and that DID NOT include the Big ones: DOD, CIA, etc
They are making a big deal over cutting $9 Billion or roughly 5% of what’s been found so far to pacify the peasants who believe headlines and are too lazy to do their homework.
I’m a little more concerned about why they’re ignoring the other $166 Billion or 95%
They’re playing you
===========
Simplified math:
WHAT THE PEASANTS DONT SEE
I steal $100 from you every year for twenty years
I get caught ONE year
I agree to pay you back $5
HEADLINE THE PEASANTS SEE:
“Bigredfish CUTS $5 in wasteful Spending”

Many folks don’t seem to understand that the debt does indeed have to be paid. In real $
It’s just that we grew up with it being a few % and not impacting the big picture. Relative pennies.
The Debt is printed money in the form of IOUs (US Treasury Bonds) that pay interest. As you print more, you owe more interest.
Well it’s now a quarter of every dollar you send to DC in taxes.
It’s now impacting what the government has left over for “other stuff” like SS, Medicare, infrastructure, Defense, etc.
The next time some genius tells you they don’t care about the Debt, we’ll just print more, ask him how that works if you take 25% of his paycheck.
The US currently takes in let’s say $4 Trillion per year in taxes and such.
We SPEND $6 Trillion per year.
That leaves a deficit of $2 Trillion per year.
Try that with your own checkbook and let me know how that works out for ya.
