Stop it. Bannon knows what he is doing when he says this.
He’s giving Trump an incentive to hold on, grossly, to power.
Stop.

The problem is in the reporting. OP could take it at face value because The Hill is, unfortunately, reporting it that way.

If The Hill had used the headline “Bannon says with no evidence” or “Bannon makes strange claim” of if they just refused to print it, they would be giving appropriate context.

The NYT does this too, like Trump filed claim against x. The media gives legitimacy and value to claims like that, despite the felon pulling them out of his @ss.

Legacy media still does not know how to report on a malignant, narcissistic dictator.

I am not a fan, but this was a silent resolution. This country will get addicted to saving, just like it got addicted to spending.

Saving what? Certainly not money. Certainly not jobs. Saving the right to keep undocumented workers running resorts and hotels and slaughterhouses here while grad students are sent to Jena, Louisiana?

He's riling up the cult.

I wish media would just ignore him. He's beyond crazy. He wants to create trouble, but he's a moron. He has nothing credible or interesting to say. Just don't bother paying any attention to his antics. He's like a two year old. The more bad behavior you pay attention to, the more he does it. Ignore. Ignore. Ignore.

He is not a moron, unfortunately. Despite his own imprisonment Bannon has more power than any of his posting here. We have to take him literally and seriously. He’s laying the groundwork for Emperor Trump and no free future elections. He’s doing it openly.

LOL there will be no savings.

Also LOL if Americans stop their shopping addiction (which affects savings rates), our whole economy will collapse. Americans live to buy cheap crap.

Remember why? GWB told us it was patriotic to shop after 9/11. This entire thing is a GOP mess.

DOGE has cost us MORE. The savings are fake. And the expense of repairing their damage hasn’t even been factored in yet.

The ongoing expense to repair will be ongoing.

The nastiness is entirely well deserved.

Those of you who don't understand it should try and do more listening and less ignoring and dismissing.

Except the small detail that DOGE hasn’t actually saved anything. And will cost billions in the next years just in lawsuits.

You’re right that there was a desire for efficiency, but this farce— laying off the nuclear security folks, for example— will make all the good faith efforts harder then they otherwise would have been.

But there is no savings. Doge is costing us and will continue to do so as we have to repair our government. It is so incredibly inefficient, it’s actually mind-boggling.

It honestly feels like a group of middle school bullies did an “If I was President” presentation and it all somehow came to be.

Yes, this is exactly the feeling
