So says you. I can make bad comparisons too! Biden is greater than 32 other presidents, which at NCAA's means he is in first place. But you are missing it. The language associated was around making Biden seem Great and Trump seem Lame. The survey was "greatest!" Everyone picked it up. Biden and Greatest in same sentence.

It is guaranteed there are metric tons of wasteful expenditures. More coffee please.

Once upon a time, in a land of plenty, the profits flowed, but the overlords still demanded sacrifice. We were once coerced by management to spend the unneeded funds so that we could retain the budget the following year. So we'd buy education, books, team outings, etc. to spend the left over budget. Then we cut back on travel and budget. Then spending required senior leadership approval. Then the activist investor came and layoffs occurred. Then the business sold. More layoffs. Good luck with a raise or promotion. And we were profitable throughout, just missing operating margin targets.

@uncle bernard I either don't understand bluesky lingo or I do understand and its lame. Maybe I am Jeff here concerned about micromanaging bean rotation. I don't think you are talking about crop rotation, but that actually is important whereas cross-sex hormone study in mice is stupendous. I'm a tightwad. I don't want my money going to studies that support mental health issues caused by the Charlize Theron and Megan Fox of the world.

Yes you are correct. I apologize. I'm obviously a super fan of the DOGE efforts and the topic title didn't mention 1 month. The OP does list 1 month.

Biden is the 14th greatest president ever. I've read many articles and social media posts about how Biden was one of the best presidents. The biggest gaslighting was the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project, completed by 200 democrats + liberals against 35 republicans + conservatives. It has Biden as the 14th greatest president ever. As if that wasn't enough of an alert, it listed Trump as the worst president of all time. Many articles use the survey to talk about Poll Ranking as the 14th-Best president. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/18/us/politics/biden-trump-presidential-rankings.html https://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/watch/historians-rank-biden-as-the-14th-best-president-trump-is-ranked-last-204468293940 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/joe-biden/2024/02/21/joe-biden-14th-greatest-president-us-history-poll/72676059007/ https://www.npr.org/2024/02/19/1232447088/historians-presidents-survey-trump-last-biden-14th https://thehill.com/homenews/4476288-presidential-experts-rank-biden-14th-among-presidents-in-survey-trump-comes-in-last/ https://www.yahoo.com/news/historians-rank-joe-biden-14th-140109331.html https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/feb/20/presidents-ranking-trump-biden-list https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-02-18/trump-biden-presidents-day-ranking-poll-election-2024 https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/politics/joe-biden/2024/02/21/joe-biden-14th-greatest-president-us-history-poll/72676059007/ https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/politics/2024/02/19/biden-14th-in-scholars--presidential-rankings--trump-last

If DOGE found zero additional savings, was it worth it? 100% Yes! We were funding studies where mice are given cross-sex hormones? WTF!

March 6, 2025 Timeline: 18 months (Jan 20, 2025 - Jul 4, 2026) Goal: Identify $1 trillion in waste Status: On Track but at risk, aggressive start and scaling needed Claimed Savings: $105 billion (10.5% of goal) Pace Needed: $1.8B/day Current Pace: $2.5B/day Challenges: Lawsuits, congressional resistance, mandatory spending reliance

It doesn't matter if every single one of the pardoned J6ers are guilty of the crimes they were charged with. BECAUSE pre-pardon, J6 dismissals were under 1%. Compare that to Portland where ~60% of federal cases were dismissed. BECAUSE that is the ideologic justice we were living under. Were most of the people guilty? Yes. Were people pre-detained for 300+ days? Yes. Were prosecutors trying to slap the hardest crime possible? Yes. Did rejected plea deals lead to escalating indictments? Yes. Coercion. Yes.

show me an example or law?

He is a nutjob Pharisee (not Christian) Christian, condemning everyone for their sins. Get's clocked with a bat at a high school. https://web.archive.org/web/20170710202100/https://www.rawstory.com/2016/05/preacher-carrying-you-deserve-to-be-raped-sign-hit-over-the-head-by-baseball-bat-wielding-woman/

The J6 Save America rally and peaceful protest was legal. The Capitol breach and violence was illegal. The pardons were not about legality. The pardons were a statement about inconsistent legal treatment. Pre-pardon, J6 dismissals were under 1%. Compare that to Portland where ~60% of federal cases were dismissed.

Legally, you are free and clear, guilty or not.

commuting a sentence is not the same as pardoning

Offensive protests are legal. But it can be illegal depending...

Around a dozen had their sentences commuted to time served, with offences retained on their record.

Pre-pardon, J6 dismissals were under 1%. Compare that to Portland where ~60% of federal cases were dismissed. The pardons made a super necessary statement about inconsistent legal treatment.

The article is propaganda and opinion. The author’s too dense to grasp the word "illegal." This is another WIN for common sense... a wake-up call to campuses tolerating chaos, not a rights violation. Schools aren’t above the law; federal funds come with conditions. Existing protest laws should be enforced.

Its more common than you'd think. My FIL found out someone was using his SSN illegally in another part of the UDA when he (FIL) got the government notification that he owed more taxes.

The jobs are worth it. Win. Vibes and pride is worth it. Win. Impact on sales is TBD.

I like the idea behind https://ground.news/

There are hundreds of thousands of workers that do very little unless management holds their hand.

@1034004 The twerp has no brains based on how he went about this reporting. He is smart enough to recognize something as potentially "sensitive" and then stupid enough to amplify the specific details. There is a better way to handle and report on the risk.
