    When Bill and Newt put the country on a debt reduction glide path in the 90s, the debt totalled ~5.5T.

    The GOP, likely without a single democratic vote, will add ~4T in the coming 24-30 months.

    DOGE is part side show, part ideological purge.

    Watch what they do not what they say.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      Well, I knowingly support the tribe that seems dead set against remote work.

      You’re not a federal government employee; the tribe you support does not directly influence your work arrangement.

        @Axtremus If the culture shifts, it could easily affect the decisions of private companies. As we saw with the anti-profitable DEI employees that sprung up everywhere.

        Education is extremely important.

          I will give President Trump credit IF he continues this path, even when public "sentiment" turns against him on this.

          Rare for a president to take a long term view on a subject.

            He voted for Trump. Now his wife sits in an ICE detention center.

            In this case, the wife overstayed her original visa.

                No surprise that farmers are hurting. I posted this pic previously, but maybe worth repeating.

                When you are soybean farmer, and pretty much 50% of your market dries up, that is a problem.

                  Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.

                      Maybe Trump needs to hire Captain Obvious to just shadow him in the White House. Could help.
