more on DOGE

What they're saying about DOGE now:

Despite its name, DOGE will actually function as a commission outside the government that will work with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to advise the president on what government bloat can be cut.

DOGE will operate on a deadline. It will finish its work by July 4, 2026, the nation’s 250th birthday, Trump said.

So it will be a paragovernmental organization (which, as I said, doesn't shield it from becoming an oppressive entity), but it will also be temporary. I like that. That's the one thing I ask for. So all the people now decrying the irony I mentioned in my previous post have no leg to stand on.* DOGE has its work cut out for it, and I hope there will be a lot of Milei-style ¡Afuera! And I mean a lot. Let's make America leaner and meaner.

*Unless Musk and Ramaswamy suddenly and suspiciously extend DOGE's existence.
