    Meet one of the DOGE employees!

    This guy was on the Laura Ingraham show last night. He's looking into the IRS right now. He claims the IRS handles the same amount of transactions as a mid-size bank.

    * A mid-size bank typically has 100-200 IT employees, and a budget of ~ $20 million.

    * The IRS has 8000 IT employees and a budget of 3.5 billion!

    We are clearly being ripped off by grifters in government and the parasitic contractors. This segment starts at ~ 12;50:

    When they say, “We must protect our democracy,” switch the word “democracy” to “bureaucracy”, and it will all make sense.

    Are we all over talking about Pitino that nobody mentioned the Houthi attack that was mistakenly planned with the Atlantic's editor on the discussion chain?

    I'm sure the Houthis have us right where they want us now. Gotta brush up on my Arabic.

    So when the opposition party eventually gets power back, including the editor on a discussion chat involving top secret battle plans is perfectly ok. Got it.

    Someone surely will get fired. Presumably that Waltz guy.

    The guy was obviously included by mistake (by whomever), and the Atlantic decides it's then perfectly fine to release info that may or not be classified? WTF?

    The Trumpster said none of it was classified, so that is when the Atlantic decided to post it. I doubt any heads will roll, remember these are "all the best people."

    You've got 19 of our country's top intelligence officials on a chat (that automatically erases) talking about bombing another country....and not one of them stops to say:
    1 - hey! Shouldn't we be on the secured government messaging service with our government provided phones or in a SCIF room talking about this?
    2 - and don't these communications need to be preserved under the various records acts for the country, not erased?

    Children let loose in our government. Maybe somebody will wake up and decided Fox News Hosts don't have the experience for these types of jobs.
    Looking at you Republican Senators.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.
