I have worked as a contractor for multiple government agencies.

Every agency is filled with waste. Every agency.

And every federal worker will say they are working so hard, every federal worker.

Meanwhile they never work on weekends, or work late during the week. They will be there from 7 to 3:15 and do the absolute minimum of work. You could fire 50% of the workers and the agency will work BETTER!.

Be respectful and be kind, but most of america wants significant reductions in the waste in government.

for every action, think, is it fair for a single parent with a child, struggling to make ends meet, have their taxes go to this federal mission. stop the waste, help the middle class , that is being kind and respectful.

I've been married to a federal worker for 25 years and I wish that were true. He works almost every weekend at home, he's had to go into the office more weekend than I can count, he's worked on vacations, he loses some of his PTO every year because he can't take it all, he didn't get to take any paternity leave with our second kid... And he could be making 3-4x his government salary in the private sector, because he is capped like all federal workers--he didn't even get a raise for many years because the federal schedule didn't budge. So I do mean this most sincerely, f*ck you and everyone else who thinks like you and/or voted for Trump.

+100 . All of my family members who are federal workers work more than the required hours and aren't eligible for overtime pay because of their pay grade. They are professional, responsible and passionate about the work they do. This constant accusing ALL government workers of being lazy is getting old and trite. Surely there must be a more humane way to keep the talented people who are invested in their jobs and not insult them by calling them "low productivity."

Agreed.

The sad thing is that of course there is waste in federal government. Of course there are people or even divisions that are not productive or get mired in bureaucracy. There are also myriad inefficiencies that result from bad processes, inadequate or obsolete technology, or cultural issues. This is true in any organization, much less one as large as the fed. If Trump and Musk approached the project of identifying waste in government and fixing it, with curiosity and optimism, I actually think (in theory) they could do good.

But they are starting from the premise that federal workers are de facto lazy and federal regulations are de facto bad, and are making cuts and seizing control based on to on evidence of waste or inefficiency, but political ideology. Is USAID a particularly wasteful agency? Nope, and in fact because it attracts people who are particularly passionate about the work that it does, you find remarkably hardworking people there. In terms of ROI, it's very hard to calculate the benefit it has to the US in terms of spreading goodwill and encouraging democratic, pro-US ideals abroad. Yet this is where Musk began.

It tells you everything you need to know.

It's called State Capture.

I want to commend you for the important work you are doing. Your efforts to address government waste and reduce massive national debt are crucial.

As a parent, I worry about my son’s future if your mission fails. I understand that you are facing a lot of criticism, but please know that many of us who hope for a bright future for our children support your efforts and recognize that change is necessary.

Stay strong and brave.

What future do you think our children have if the US loses its role as a superpower, which we are about to do?

I have zero effs to give about remaining a super power. We need to take care of our country and its citizens first and foremost.

So you think having a country run by oligarchs like Hungary will be better than trying to clean up what we have now through the lawful means?

Traitor.

Nobody tried to clean it up via lawful means. Or if they did they got shut down.

I’m not happy about any of this but what do the democrats expect? They didn’t bother to address the issue. Heck they chose money over democracy.

The republicans just acquired control of all branches of government. Why didn’t they use that power to change what they want?

Nope. The Congress should be the ones to fix any wasteful spending. That is their job. But it is the

GOP CONGRESSPEOPLE

who have refused to work on this for decades. Just obstruction, obstruction, obstruction.

It has been under GOP POTUSes when the deficit has risen to its highest levels. They cannot sustain their tax cuts. They are beholden to industries like big oil instead of the American people.

The problems with waste are at the feet of the GOP.

Joni Ernst tried to get info on USAID, and the USAID people denied her requests and threatened her for asking questions.

Ms. Ernst tossed her principles aside to support Hegseth. She shredded her own reputation so no need to believe anything she says now.

You can look at Twitter and see that this statement is false.

factually wrong.

Twitter makes less money because Elon has alienated advertisers, yes.

But the site itself works better, is stable, is being upgraded consistently will little negatives, and is a great example that there was a lot of waste at that company.

False. The search function is completely f&cked.

what nonsense, are you really that clueless?

works fine, just tried it again, and worked great. stop with the propaganda.

focus on how to cut waste in government so that we can let the working class keep more of their money, rather than expanding middle class welfare for feds.

Republicans try to block every single program for working class benefits. Fact. Trumps tax cut was for wealthy people and the working class still pays higher tax rates than Trump himself. Fact.

GTFO with your lies.

Any idea which of those are still young adults?

A 19- year old still has the ability to be a hero of their own story. A thirty year old serving a despot for years, not so much.

Here's a good idea. Let's cut out USAID and stop participating in WHO. Let's see, what communicable diseases are still endemic? Polio is endemic in Pakistan. How many visitors does the US get from Pakistan every year? 80,000! Should be fine. Measles is endemic in Indonesia. How many visitors does the US get from Indonesia every year? 400,000. No worries. What about diptheria? Its endemic right here in our own hemisphere still! It can walk in, hundreds of thousands of people every year come legally from across Central and South America. And then there are the 2 million visitors we get each year from India, which has very low diptheria vaccination rates and thousands of cases each year.

Good thing we're letting an anti-vaxxer take over the CDC! I look forward to seeing children crippled by polio, young adults rendered infertile from the mumps, and the elderly dying from rubella, because I think that is what it is going to take to teach the red states their lesson.

Avoiding foreigners doesn't help, it's the unvaccinated kids sitting next to yours in school that can spread something to yours, and even if your kids are safe you may have less resistance if you haven't had shots since you were a kid.

You are already blaming the democrats. No, this is on you, MAGA.

MAGA exists because of the failings by democrats. If dems didn’t turn their noses up at the working class whites we wouldn’t be in this situation.

Typical democrat refusing to accept any responsibility on how we all got here.

They are changing it. It’s just that what they want isn’t what you want. They say democrats are corrupt and have corrupted and bankrupted the govt with their policies.

Trump represents more of a napoleon type than Mussolini. The bourgeoise are the problem and only Trump can save the country. You, are the bourgeoise.
