    The problem is that agencies are already re-hiring the people that were laid off and the new budget passed in the house still increases the debt ceiling, the deficit and spending overall.

    And again, if DOGE is a new department (they are "rebranding" one to skirt some rules), ask yourself, why Trump has to nominate people for confirmation to every other department?

    But the guy who paid him $250,000,000 and happens to be America's richest Oligarch is suddenly the de-facto vice president and "department head".

    I don't know about you, but there are principles and checks and balances integal to our country that should be followed. When people think it's ok if it's "their guy" doing it, you're on dangerous earth.

    I'm so tired of this argument. You're complaining that a well known billionaire is heading up a obscure department that was retooled to look at government waste?

    Who would you like to run that? Some obscure bureaucrat that you don't know?

    "Defacto Vice President" Yeah not really.. He's not 2nd inline to the presidency and he has no authority to carry out VP duties.

    Or my favorite online argument, "eLOn mUsK HaS aCcEss to S.S. iNfO!!" As opposed to obscure IRS agents that you have know idea their names?


    Elon Musk , the most well known billionaire in the world is not going to steal your grandma's $1700 SS check or take fraudulent loans out in her name. What he is going to do is use his experience in running and organizing SUCCESSFUL companies and do a complete audit of the monstrous federal government and figure out how to make it operate smoother.
