Government Takeover?

    Liberal media outlets are going all in on an effort to paint Trump and the DOGE as spearheading a "Government Takeover".

    That's far from the case. It was widely known before Trump was recently elected that he planned to "drain the swamp". In fact, his use of that phrase goes back 9 years to his 2015 campaign before Biden swamped even more of DC.

    Clearly, Trump's efforts to eliminate waste envelop most agencies, if not all:
    • Department of Education
    • Department of Energy
    • Department of Agriculture
    • Department of Revenue
    • Defense Department
    • Department of the Interior
    • Transportation Agency
    • Treasury Department
    • Department of Labor
    • Veteran's Affairs
    • State Department
    • I'm quite sure I've missed some . . .
    Creating a lean, efficient minimalist governing machine, reminiscent of what our founders intended, should permit the American People to better grapple with our runaway debt and debt service. If we do not address that need before all else, all else will be lost for good.

    When the criticism is coming only from the Left, while Trump's efforts are directed at inefficiency and waste across all agencies, the liberal mischaracterization of the Beltway Purge as a Government Takeover is obviously a politically-motivated move . . . an attempt to retain the channels through which they can bribe voters with the money of The People.

    So, why are conservatives not whining about Trump's efforts? Why, indeed . . . Because they realize the liberal bribes are not backed by other people's money . . . it's their own.

    This Larry Elder piece is an incredibly insightful depiction of what's going on. The last gentleman to speak is very clearly representative of a huge number of minority voters. Not long, and very easy to follow.

    I think we knew a lot of this subversive activity existed all along, but just didn't really know how it would manifest before our eyes.

    No wonder the Democrats are so feverishly battling against the DOGE . . . they sensed its ability to audit would allow pulling back the curtain.

    I wonder if parties pardoned by Biden can be held to account . . . I pray so.

    Exactly right, top to bottom. The thing is, until POTUS Trump became 47 we were still considered conspiracy theorists, for the most part. With the creation of DOGE all the theories not only became realities, but the extent of the corruption, with the USAID payments going to the legacy media outlets, Soros, Clinton's, worldwide woke brainwashing, terrorists, and so much more, they are being exposed with such far reaching arms it looks like the trial is being held with indisputable evidence right in front of our eyes.

    Public opinion is grabbing moderates and some lifelong Dems by the short-hairs and converting them. Just like the last guy in that Larry Elder video, and Joe Rogan, Tulsi, Elon, RFK Jr, et al.

    And all this without addressing the grift beyond USAID. The implications are so damning that draining the swamp is happening in real time.

    They don't worry about cleaning out the house . . . they worry about cleaning out the checkbook.

    This is all about ending the gravy train. And I know over the course of this last week I have heard a dozen different shouting democrats calling Musk stupid, unhinged, crazy, etc…. Really??!?! May I see your suborbital rocket program?? That’s as rich as hearing Schumer call Vance “weird”.

    My realization he was a moron was when he started talking about cognition and neuralink stuff.
