White House economics reporter for The Washington Post: "Musk, Ramaswamy today gave us first "DOGE" roadmap; as I understand the key steps...:
1) Put DOGE ppl at each U.S. agency, then use "advanced technology" (AI?) to have them identify "thousands" of regulations to cut across government
2) Give Trump a list of "thousands" of regs to cut across the government, & have him approve their elimination
3) Identify "the minimum number of employees" necessary to maintain each agency's core function, which should be lower once 2 is complete. (NB: Musk oversaw ~80% reduction in X headcount)
4) Cut the federal employees - Musk/Ramaswamy call for for severance packages/ "incentives for early retirement," but we have no details
5) Cut programs where where Congress's specific spending authorization has lapsed (This category includes VA health care, NASA, antipoverty programs)
6) Approve a "temporary suspension of payments" amid "large-scale audits" (Details, specifics hugely unclear)
7) Assert POTUS authority to stop spending w/o Congressional approval by challenging 1974 budget law on impoundments
All seems to be w/o Congress"

It's easy to mock this guy, laugh at him, say it's always Gingers etc.
However why are we not asking why, as a society, young men are making life choices like this?
Same as anyone who chooses to go against our natural order with how they live.
Something has gone badly wrong.
“Oregon is using satellites to hunt small farms.”
Farmer Justin Rhodes says the state redefined “CAFO” so even 3 cows and a milking stand count as a factory farm.
Cease-and-desist letters. $100K “upgrades.” Family farms shut down.

“The fetal bovine serum is just disgusting, and it’s in almost every viral vaccine. They harvest it by inserting a needle into the beating heart of a baby cow to extract its blood. Where is PETA when you need them? The FDA even admits they use ‘cow parts’ because cows are large and have a lot to use.”

🌊🌎 Climate scientists’ controversial claim Gulf Stream could be near collapse — predicting a new ice age
A key Atlantic current could be pushed to the brink of collapse within decades, supposedly ushering in a new ice age and dramatically raising sea levels, climate scientists have claimed in a controversial new study published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment.
Per the new findings, the at-risk current in question is the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation or AMOC, a “conveyor belt of the ocean” that funnels warm water toward the ocean surface — from the tropics to the Northern Hemisphere.
This current, which includes the Gulf Stream that runs from the Gulf of Mexico to the US East Coast and across the Atlantic to Europe, helps maintain the mild climate of Europe, the UK, and the US East Coast.
The study stated that the source of this marine temperature regulator, the Greenland Ice sheet, is being thawed amid warming temperatures, causing ...
