It's "rein in" btw. "Reign" is what Musk is doing.

That's fine. However, the method that musk is taking is not fine. This whole scale gutting of the government is not the answer. If you want to cut spending you hire auditors and you look at where the waste and abuse is and you cut there. You don't just Close the company down unless you wanted to go bankrupt.


Musk is the auditor. And his team.


Qualifications?

Op here.

Based on most of these replies it sounds like we’re going to need a political exorcism.

Most Americans believe that this should be accomplished via the rule of law and not a dictator.

Just say you are ok with the lawlessness as long as it benefits you somehow.


But most Americans don't know how it's being done, that's the problem. Pretty sure Fox is keeping a tight lid on all the illegal crap.



They don’t know because they don’t want to know. The information is out there. They just refuse to look because then they’d have to admit that maybe they were wrong.

Not everybody answers surveys. I know I don't because I don't wanna be phished or scammed by opening the link that might be malicious. The only people that respond surveys are probably old dumb Republicans, which is why it's showing the skewed results that it is showing.


Surveys have been trash since 2016

Someone is basically walking around your house, declaring they own it while trashing every room. And no, they don’t own it.

Will any of them wake up, be honest with themselves, be brave? This is bad for all of us. So they piss off their fellow Republicans—they’ll get over it. Get voted out and write a book and go on the lecture circuit about what it took to save a democracy and stand up for the US Constitution.


Nope

Katie Britt did cry on FOX complaining she had no idea and it’s not her fault funding to her constituents is gone for good. Love that for her.



Katie Britt is as dumb as a box of rocks do I believe her. But she still owns this mess because literally it’s her job to know this stuff. She should resign on disgrace if she couldn’t see this coming.

Sure. They also want tax cuts and a pony. And they also know that they shouldn't have those things, just like they shouldn't have ice cream for breakfast.

They all have PTSD from thinking they were about to die (read AOC recent account of hiding in a bathroom).

This is the endgame of the Jan 6 insurrection, they aren’t going to stand up to take a bullet for bnothing


Then they need to quit and let someone else do the job or screw their courage to the sticking place. They took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution.
