Republicans spending money on poor people and infrastructure. In what world.
It's really hard to trust any of what is being released on Elon's Twitter as well. Especially because the few people have dug in on haven't been true.
Wait until you see the finished project........2025.
I'm on record as despising pretty much everyone. Some I just find less redeemable than others. If that's BoTH SidES, send me the membership card to your club!
I know, short sighted. Please justify the spending on spreading atheism?
Okay, whoever received the monies was probably awarded a grant that met the requirements laid out by Congress.
Don't forget to keep your eye on the bouncing ball.
The deficit will grow under Trump and GOP control, just like last time.
Penny wise, pound foolish.
I don't disagree. I'm wanting cuts to spending and a decrease in middle class tax cuts, while maintaining or slightly increasing the top brackets.

"After reading the hysterical wailings from the Left, let me make an observation:
Government offices/departments are not immortal. Those departments are in the EXECUTIVE branch of government and were created by EXECUTIVE order to begin with. The President is the chief of the EXECUTIVE branch of government. He has the power to create and the power to shut down by EXECUTIVE order.
In DOGE, he has merely delegated the power to examine these various offices/departments and make recommendations. The power to delegate has always been an EXECUTIVE prerogative. DOGE doesn’t have the power to close anything. If it is done, it will be by EXECUTIVE order signed by the chief EXECUTIVE closing an office in the EXECUTIVE branch of government.
I keep seeing people complaining that they didn’t elect Elon Musk. No, you didn’t.
Neither did you elect the minions of OSHA, or USAID, or the IRS, or any one of hundreds of Federal alphabet soup agencies that have been created in the EXECUTIVE branch of government. They formulate regulations that impact your life everyday and soak up vast quantities of taxpayer dollars. If there was ever an unelected shadow government, it’s them.
And you feel them. You feel them in every new regulation they roll out; and you feel them at tax time when you have to pay for their maintenance and the cost of their regulations; because there’s always a cost.
Nothing is amuck. Democracy is not at risk and neither is your freedom. It is merely the chief of the EXECUTIVE branch of government making EXECUTIVE decisions that are resulting in the purging of that EXECUTIVE branch of unneeded bureaucratic waste. At the last count I saw, it has saved over 1 billion dollars; and except for the hysteria from the Left, you won’t even know that a department is closed.
It’s not like with the sweep of his pen on an EXECUTIVE order he obliterated 50,000 American jobs and shut down a major source of energy on his 1st day in office. Or with an EXECUTIVE order directed the catastrophic withdrawal from a foreign nation that resulted in the loss of American military lives and the death of an untold number of civilians who had assisted this country.
No. It’s not like that.
Then you’d have something to scream about."

Just think - instead of funding plays in Ireland maybe another two or three children could be fed, clothed, and immunized. Such a concept.
Awesome! Tell me the Powerball numbers for this Saturday and we’ll split the Jackpot…
Yeah, feeding, clothing, and immunizing children is the goal of the GOP. 🥴
It was the job of the USAID. And as other leftists on here are screeching supported in bipartisan fashion since it was founded. So which is it?
It was the job of USAID. A lot of outreach programs were funded by it.
There’s a reason that it was bi-partisan. Both sides agreed that it was a way to spread good will towards the US.
It was also a means for the US to feel the political climate of different regions in the world.
We never would have done it, if it didn’t benefit the US as a whole.
