Is what I voted for.

No more letting Zelensky set the terms, telling the US what sort of aid the US will provide and when.

This time, they gotta pay.

Of course, this ,likely  means that about a third of that “aid” money won’t be laundered and shipped back to the  US in the form of kickbacks to our legislators and other government officials, but I really couldn’t care les about that.

The Democrats and bureaucrats are all whining about the fact that DOGE is finding (and cutting) all the waste and “Inefficiency” and “mistaken payments” and such….

But not one of them, not a single one, is claiming that the DOGE folks are incorrect in their assessment…..they are unhappy about the truth being told

It’s a start:

Several cities in northern Mexico have seen a major drop in the arrival of migrants seeking to reach the US border since President Donald Trump returned to the White House.

If Mexico would close their southern border the problem would go away .

DOGE claims that 4.7 trillion dollars paid by the Treasury of the United States is lacking any tracking data…..resulting in essentially untraceable payments.

Do we know where the money went?” If so, find out why they billed it….make the recipients justify the payment. If it is legit, then they should have no issue explaining it.

If not, then who is going to jail for signing off on untraceable payments?

Either we get an answer as to where it went and why, or we reverse the payment until there is an satisfactory explanation.

And, again, who is going to be fired for allowing this in the first place, and who is going to jail if the payments are found to be false or unauthorized?

That those on the DNC side who are upset that DJT is changing the way our Federal Government spends money …

You know, those who keep saying “Yes, we need to fix this, but use a scalpel, not a meat-axe” already HAD their chance for reform, and chose not to take it….They could have (and should have) fixed things THEIR way….but for many years, especially the Obama years and (and Trump’s first run) and then the explosive growth in the bureaucracy and spending  during the “Biden” administration….they chose to do nothing but stand by and watch the waste, the insane growth and the misspending of the monies of our taxpayers…..letting it happen.

Those folks can’t com0plaion about the way the house is being cleaned when they had the chance many times over many years and chose inaction.

“At least RFK Jr. is charmingly nuts and in a place he might do some good.”

So true

so lessee:

We have, via our new president, cut off the graft from USAID and their international efforts ….Where the leftists and government workers can/coul/did siphon off our tax dollars…….

And:

Put scrutiny on the Treasury, which simply paid bills submitted without any oversight…

And:

Harmed, if not killed, Diversity, Equity and Inclusiveness…. whose programs milked both government AND private companies for large monies for Leftists.

And:

Have cut off or greatly reduced the Green Boondoggle…both wind and solar subsidies.

Closely looked at, and examined the Department of Education…and cut greatly the wasted dollars there. (Hopefully more to come)

And that is just a start. Lots of people being cut out of the Gravy Train they once enjoyed, as their positions allowed them to skim off a percentage…..

I expect EPA and Energy will yield similar results.

Lots of ways people made money.. approving supplier contracts with inflated pricing (with the appropriate remunerations funneled to the people making the decision on who got the contracts), making sure that service providers got the positions at elevated costs (with, of course, the associated kickbacks)….that sort of thing. You know, and I know that that sort of thing happened a LOT in the Federal government.,,,….before Trump and Musk….and up to now, we couldn’t do anything. But that was then, when the Right Sort of People were in Charge……now? Maybe not so much. And no one will believe anymore that it is just government worker incompetence, as I believe that performance is going to matter for our Civil Service people as well….Gonna expect productivity and competence.

Lots of people gonna have to change their lifestyle and maybe sell some of those expensive homes around DC and elsewhere along the East Coast…..maybe sell a vacation home or two….
