As errors pile up, Musk and DOGE appear increasingly incompetent

The Trump White House has long billed the DOGE endeavor as a hyper-competent initiative. Those claims now lie in tatters.

‘Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office last week, Elon Musk conceded, “Some of the things that I say will be incorrect.” As it turns out, the word “some” was doing a lot of work in that sentence.

For example, the quasi-governmental operation called the Department of Government Efficiency is starting at least to try to document some of its work. To that end, DOGE claimed this week that it has saved American taxpayers $55 billion in federal spending so far, which sounds like a considerable sum.

But as Bloomberg News reported, according to the accounting available through the DOGE website, the actual total is $16.6 billion, which is roughly a third of advertised total.

Still, $16.6 billion might strike some as a significant figure! But roughly half of that total is the result of an apparently careless mistake. The New York Times reported:

Almost half of those line-item savings could be attributed to a single $8 billion contract for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. But the DOGE list vastly overstated the actual value of that contract. A closer scrutiny of a federal database shows that a recent version of the contract was for $8 million, not $8 billion.’


Not only apparently but in fact incompetent.

Reckless and irresponsible, Trump and Musk have no idea what they’re doing.

Trump is unfit to be president.

And yet they are literally pulling the country and by extension the planet back from the brink of destruction.
Bless your heart.
 
Im super fond of the fact that they are looking into all these places. You guys seem to think this mistake is somehow worse than Biden's disastrous Afghanistan pullout, but i dont find it to be the crisis you make it out to be. Again, im just happy that we have people looking VERY closely at the books. They are finding TONS of shit!
tRump was the one who set up the Afghanistan thing.

And he's doing it again in Ukraine.

It's gone beyond that , it's criminal activities. Firing people on false pretenses and covering his own ass ( Elon Musk ). Time to fire the whole lot and throw them in prison.

You are way out of your depth, dude.
 
I'll pay $10 for a single fucking egg to watch you delirious assclowns melt down like y'all have been for the last month, for the next four years. :auiqs.jpg:

I have a stupid question.

If the Fed has all these safeguards against inflation, why don't they work? Because the role of the Fed is to consolidate financial power in Wall Street, and to make avaricious sums of interest off of money created out of nowhere....Creation of inflation is what they do. I'm here to help.

    Wages Way Up Under Biden

    20% inflation wipes that all out.

    Trump's accomplishments

    IMO, his greatest accomplishment is making smug, supercilious little snobs like you cry like little girls, over him beating your asses like a drum.

Awwww did your SNAP card stop working at Ladie's Lingerie??
 
The only people who don't love what Elon is doing are the crooks who stole the money and the dopes that think our national debt isn't important.

When a fake president convicted of fraud appoints a fake scientist accused of fraud (who was forced to resign as chairman of Tesla because of it) to seek out fraud, you know there's either a huge problem of leadership or you're watching a long lost Marx brothers movie.

/----/ "$16.6 billion might strike some as a significant figure"
It's $16.6 billion more than Commie Harris would have saved us, you troll. She spent $1.5 Billion in 12 weeks and left the DNC $20 million in debt.
Try harder, loser.
 
Doge is doing great. :twirl:
Americans love DOGE!
