Rooting For DOGE

The stakes in this part of the Trump Revolution are enormous

For a better understanding of what DOGE is all about and who’s behind it, take a look at the piece above in which Fox News’ Bret Baier interviews the DOGE team.

The piece is both reassuring (we’ve got some smart and careful people in DOGE) and scary (the federal government is fraught with fraud and fraud potential.)

Elon Musk begins with this: “The sheer amount of waste and fraud in the government, it is astonishing. It’s mind-boggling. We routinely encounter wastes of $1 billion or more, casually.”

As the interview proceeds you find out that a whopping 40% of calls to Social Security are fraudsters. “Fraudsters call in and claim to be a retiree. And then they convince the operator to change where the money is flowing.”

I urge everyone — especially those who have bought into the Democrat attack line that DOGE is a bunch of reckless teens mucking up efficient government workers — to watch this bit of good reporting.

DOGE is a lot more than uncovering the weird expenditure here and there.

Yes, they’ve blown the whistle on a $300,000 contract educating queer and transgender farmers in San Francisco on the merits of “food justice.”

And, yes, they stopped a contract of $600,000 to study the menstrual cycles of transgender men in Louisiana.

But it’s the huge redundancies of government offices that will pay the biggest dividends.

Anyway, take a look at this report. I think it will convince you to root for DOGE instead of trying to pick it apart.

We don’t often get to use the North Dakota Monitor as a source. But today, we can. Here’s their reporting on the pervert Ray Holberg getting his much-deserved sentencing.
