Too bad DOGE couldn't stop the FED from wasting billions to re-create The Palace of Versailles.

This is how the American taxpayer has been raped by Federal waste, fraud and abuse for decades. Pure arrogance and disregard by the Fed.

DOGE was performance art.

A shame since the concept is legit.

Halt construction immediately. The Fed can meet in trailers or high school gyms.

Doge was just an excuse to hurt people they didn't like. Real waste continues unabated. How much did paving the Rose Garden cost?

They can meet in the same old building as long as it is functional. Who cares how it looks?

They have already found billions in waste and helped some agencies modernize their computer systems. They are 6 months into a 2 year mission.

It may work out to part of the reason Powell is fired for cause.....The Fed losing money since 2022 being the main reason.

Im not sure of this? DOGE shows ~$190B saved in contracts or changes to date. They show it item by item.

If true, $200B is nothing to sneeze at. It looks real to me when I go thru it

Don't shoot me but I thought the FED paid for it out of their printed money in thin air? Not a budgeted item?

That said, it upsets me. They dont stay a travel lodge in Jackson MS, they go to Jackson Hole resort always tourqes my jaw. Like kings and queens. Spare no expense. Heck, they could do it on Skype or Google meets !!

I'm mad (again). Soccer is on. I was all set to bet Chesla over Paris at the start, but I looked. Yes the internet.

Chelsa were big underdogs 4:1? Could win $40 bet $10 etc but I read experts crap.

Oh, I did bet Chealsa (but softly with parlay. I also bet Paris SG to win after reading the bloody experts! Chelsea leads 3-0 at half! Both could have come true but barring a miracle I will win only a few dollars. OK my soccer knowledge is limited. So I got suckered by experts the rotten dumb Oxyen got me to second guess my own eyes.

I should have loaded up quicly on Chesla when it started going good at 1-0, 2-0 but it happened so fast!!!!! Odds change also. Making it no payback of course now.

President Trump and Mel are in the stands at Meadowlands NJ.

I saw on Fox Business News this morning that Trump is compiling a list of candidates to replace Powell. It's high time to do that I think.

You are both missing the point. The amount of cuts in the BBB from DOGE (190 billion?) are nice but DOGE found something like 900 billion in total.

The reason why more of what DOGE found hasn't been cut yet and was not included in the BBB was because the Democrats blocked it.

Where are the arrests for the outright fraud?

How do you track down which bureaucrats committed the fraud? Good luck with that, let's just be glad we actually have a REAL EFFORT going on to clean house which has never happened.

Start with banking deposits? Expenditures? Money trail? How do you get $193million making $150K for 50 years like the turtle. With 2-3 houses.

Nuseum just became Govener but bought $9mil mansion. Where did he get down payment or did he pay cash?

Stuff like that I guess. Menendez had undeclared gold bars lol! Stuff happens.


How do you get into private bank records w/o warrants? Sleazebsg politician can do anything and no judge will allow any checking. Game over ##

How come you MAGA toadies aren't ranting & raving about assfuck Trump's scheme to piss away $200 million to build a W.H. ballroom? Or is it because that son of a ***** never plans to leave office, becoming an autocrat for life?
