DOGE claims $55B in savings, but independent estimates put it at $2.6B. Even if true, that’s less than 1% of the $7.3T budget. A 10% workforce cut saves just $3.125B annually—only 0.043% of the budget. DOGE isn’t reducing waste; it’s hurting people and the country. #govtlies #fednews #DOGE
It does not take a big brain to understand the BS that is DOGE
