1. The DOGE website is garbage. The claimed savings has no relationship to the data provided. And the data that is provided grossly inflates the savings from each canceled contract. So we just launched our own site — the Musk Watch DOGE Tracker — that breaks everything down.

Why is no one talking about the fact that civilian salaries make up less than 7% of the federal budget and would make ZERO impact on the $36 trillion deficit. It’s literally pennies. So what is the firing of these federal civil servants really about? Because it’s NOT about saving money.

@carlquintanilla.bsky.social How does cutting Social Security and/or Medicare improve the debt/deficit? Maybe ask Jim Cramer. Hint: Social Security and Medicare are, by law, unable to borrow money from the government.

@morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Someone please inform Joe that Social Security and Medicare can't, by law, borrow money. They are not the cause of any of the debt Enough with the ingorance/lies, Joe

@squawkstreet.bsky.social Someone please inform Jim Cramer that Social Security and Medicare can't, by law, borrow money. They are not the cause of any of the debt Enough with the lies, Jim

not only that - he has already suspended public communications from the health agencies tracking the bird flu epidemic!
