DOGE is an abject failure.
Minimal waste found and basically no fraud. It’s only “accomplishment” is cutting *needed* government functions off at the knees—something they’ll later point to as, “see the government isn’t go at doing stuff, we need to privatize it.”
Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.
Every Mars first fan should read “A City on Mars”.
Need to include unbiased news sources in ALL feeds. We have too many silos of poor information.
It’s the new, “…in two weeks.”
Elon’s Downfall
Peeps need to read “City on Mars” by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith.
In a nutshell, spend the time developing all the required tech on Earth before going to Mars en masse. A sprint is more likely to fail.

How exactly does revoking a legitimately earned and conferred degree work (other than honorary degrees)?
It’s not like they can make the degree holder unlearn what they were taught and graded on.
Put the [“revoked”] degree on a resume, and let them bitch about it.
A 2024 report found that the IRS netted savings of $13,000 for every additional hour spent auditing wealthy individuals’ tax returns — a return that “would leave Wall Street hedge fund managers drooling,” per the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy.
