Every agency is filled with waste. Every agency.

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.

Thank you.

16% of federal employees are doctors and nurses.

Around 5-6% of federal employees are law enforcement workers.

Where do they fit in this picture you are painting?

Hang on.

Are these real doctors and nurses or surfing the internet all day and participating in studies and questionnaires?

Are these real LEO or sitting in cubes in federal buildings attending meetings on mundane projects and reviewing legalistic boilerplate documents?

I've worked fed.gov. I know the game. Those are big flywheel contracts with thousands of bodies getting little real work done. You know it. I know it.

I request that DOGE move forward as soon as possible to expose the criminal violations of the 4th Amendment by the great many private surveillance companies operating in DC/ NOVA/MD- they have been started by retired CIA and former DHS fascist types and their lobby group / " professional association " is called JANES.


You might see these late middle aged men and women at a Private school event in NW DC or out and about at a farmer's market or, oops, they just happen to bump into you when you are at Whole Foods because whole foods uses AWS as does DHS and you have " location services" turned on with you iPhone. They are following up to skim data off of your IPhone after " accidentally running into you on the street"

This is what the Patriot Act created: 300,000 more federal workers spying on their fellow Americans- many of those DHS workers themselves coming from some pretty sketchy family backgrounds.

DOGE should move onto DHS and the private surveillance industry for hire next. After all, these are the people who hacked his grandaughter's IG account using social engineering and identified when he would be at the golf course

Speak for yourself! I work late and weekends!

This ladies and gentlemen is a bitter contractor who could not get a steady and reliable job. Disposable.

What? Contractors often have steady gigs. Anyway, some of his points are fair, for his specific situation. But the ultimate question is what he did to change the situation? Report it? Leave? Support changes? If you're going to complain, you should at least not have benefited from it, once the situation became clear.

I've worked as an 0343-14, an onsite contractor, a consultant, and an independent consultant. Most of what I've seen and experienced sits in a gray area open to interpretation. Usually it isn't a staff performance issue. It's more about grade inflation, particularly at the highest levels. Too many SESs and 15s doing lower level work. And again, this isn't across the board.

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.

Again, now they have all control of all three branches. You don't think that could have been wielded to get information?

This is a temper tantrum.

Fat chance of that happening at Northeastern- they instructed their faculty to remove all their DEI reearch. They're tied to the hip with Silicon Valley and tech bros. You're going to see the STEM focused schools receiving the lion's share of NIH funding once that resumes.

You think so? Northeastern is currently the darling of the undergrad world - but this might alter that.

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.

These fktards have zero idea what most of the government does

Here’s the level of immaturity and arrogance that has been let loose.


Just hours before he sent the email, Kliger made a post on his Substack page titled: 'Why DOGE. Why I gave up a seven-figure salary to save America.'

Unlike the rest of his Substack, the post was 'subscriber only' with a $1,000-a-month fee - or $10,000 for a whole year - to access a single word of it.

However, those who were curious enough to cough up the extraordinary fee found there wasn't even that - the post was completely blank.

Lmao you worked as contractor. You have no idea how the agency actually operates. Gtfo loser.

I dealt with the actually employees doing the work, day in day out for many years. I went to lunch with them. I helped them improve the processes. And I saw the culture first hand. DOD was the worst. The employees did not care if things worked, just that you followed the process. the office was empty, empty at 3:20. every day.

folks were, don't tell me to think, tell me what to do.

Lovely.

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 mchose money over democracy.

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.

Mitch McConnell could have supported Trump’s impeachment but he didn’t.

Wrong. MAGA exists because of massive $$ propaganda and the right wing news bubble that spreads misinformation and ideology.
