I think government spending has gotten out of control and needs over site and their own audit.

The Democrats, since Clinton have talked about doing what DOGE is not doing. Yes, Clinton and Obama did some EO, but always gave more lip service than action. Now we have action from Republicans' and still Democrat lip service.

Horrible what they are doing to people. I don't understand how firing people would take care of fraud and abuse. They are stripping people of their livelihoods and it will come back at us because the government will have to cover their unemployment stipends and we will have many more homeless ppl.

About 14.5% of the US workforce, or 20.2 million people, work in the public sector. This includes state, local, and federal government employees. That's way to many people working at a job that produces nothing.

Maybe you should turn of the news and research. Why pay 5 people to do the job of 1. Why keep lazy employees who don't produce when you can keep highly productive workers and increase there pay. See its called rewarding hard work and punishing lazy people. Hard work does pay off.

Elon is not an elected official, not even a cleared contractor for what he is doing. This sabotages democracy.

Elon is only exposing criminals. He is doing nothing else. Become informed, instead of brainwashed.

While often categorized as a democracy, the United States is more accurately defined as a constitutional federal republic.

Unilateral decisions from the Executive branch cannot go unchecked (on BOTH “sides”). Just like when Biden shouldn’t have bypassed the SC with student loan forgiveness. Democracy is fragile and we cannot lean towards dictatorship.

The exuberant government spending of tax payer dollars on everything but America is insane. The money we have given other countries while we pay high taxes and see our infrastructure and the cost of everyday living in the United States in shambles is more than enough for DOGE to continue their work.
