h/t @wtg :
The Pentagon owns 145 golf courses. As Trump cuts key government services, we found it aims to spend on sand traps and clubhouses.
Trump is just going to spend the money on golf courses anyway.

Military life is just one big country club resort lifestyle.
That is one of the expected benefits, you really can't cut it.

For the officers.
Of course, they're supposed to lead and be the first to die. The lieutenants, anyway.

I say that, but I have a friend who was a sergeant at Ia Drang. He said the NVA sure were trying to kill him.

I actually supported the idea in the beginning. Government efficiency (IMO there should be a Financial Efficiency officer in each agency focused on cutting waste, detecting fraud, and incentivizing coming in under budget), but once it became clear DOGE is almost all fake, I’ve lost faith.

If you think of it as an ideological purge rather than a cost savings initiative it makes more sense.
@jon-nyc How would you justify that framing? It's true that DEI jobs have no value to the government, so they would be prime candidates for job cuts. But, I doubt as a percentage of cuts attributable to DOGE, that DEI positions are a meaningful %. And we know the retirement buyout offers weren't targeted, ideologically or otherwise.
