Just one? God, I could go on for hundreds of pages, so thanks for limiting it to one. You could pick and choose from all the lies about the alleged 2020 voter fraud (related to Biden because it indicates that he fraudulently won), where Fox had to pay Dominion almost $1 billion dollars due to all their lies.

No, I don't, actually. That's about as ambiguous of an accusation as you can get. Believing "the media" about Biden. Which media and which specific act? He could literally be talking about a million different things if you include all the actions by Biden reported by the all the media outlets.

Huh? Can you be more specific?

....still looking. I want DOGE to do something useful besides just lay off federal workers that are about 1% of the federal budget.

This is absolutely amazing. You're dismissing something the President did because a mayor in Chicago did something that you claim is similar (which it isn't). Not only is this "whataboutism," but you're comparing the actions of a President to a mayor that most of us have never even heard of. Pathetic!!!!

Yah; like I'm going to take ANYTHING that a Musk appointee like Lee Zeldin says at face value. There's a twist at a minimum. Something between that and an outright lie. Is there any evidence that this money was going to be used as a slush fund by Biden? There should be bank account transactions on record if it was being used in this way. ...still looking for fraud....

The ends justify the means for the wingers nowadays. There's zero morality; win at all costs. Screw the Constitution. They suddenly don't care much about the deficit anymore either. Notice that? Then they'll suddenly re-gain their morals when we have a Democratic President and be constantly talking about proper checks and balances, and the deficit. The hypocrisy of the right at it again.

LMFAO. That was basically put out by the Musk Administration itself, so that's gonna have even more of a spin than the NY Post or Fox News.

The conspiracy theories from the right never end. These idiots will believe anything that fits their pre existing ideology. No substantiation needed. Fox News and NY Post have replaced the national enquierer.

They're not doing jack squat except destroying jobs, which will destroy oversight and allow rampant corruption and more profit for Tesla. Not even putting the smallest dent in the actual budget though. What a complete joke.

We're rapidly becoming an extremely corrupt country, at warp speed. There was always some of this, but diaper boy is taking it to the next level by OPENLY giving his loyalists drastic favors based only upon their loyalty, such as pardoning them, appointing them as heads of federal agencies, and even letting them run the country (eg President Musk).

More complete incompetence

We're 4 weeks into our great turnaround and DOGE is hard at work infiltrating every govt agency. So far, they've "uncovered" what they consider waste but where is this widespread fraud they said they'd find? Surely, they should have found something by now if it is so rampant. There's some stuff we already knew about that they repeated back to us, like individuals getting welfare that shouldn't. GREAT FOR THEM!! Too bad they haven't started on the Pentagon yet.

I'm actually just as concerned about the reaction to diaper boy in the upcoming years as diaper boy himself. He only got about 49.5% of the vote, and 30% of all the adults actually went out and voted for him.

Ends justify any means. Got it. Yes, you'll see the same thing in 2029, back at ya. Very realistic that this ends in civil war if people have this mindset.

There's no comparison in the degree to which Trump is brazenly violating checks and balances. Not remotely close and any moderate will tell you that.

I thought biden sucked and definitely would have condemned him purposely violating the constitution. It's very obvious that diaper boy is saying he can do whatever he wants as long as he's "saving the country." The problem is that what comes around goes around. The wingers better get done what they can in the next 2 years because after that Diaper Boy won't be able to do much, even if he doesn't get impeached. Then 4 yrs from now all hell will break lose when you get a Democrat in there that is willing to pull the same stuff. Angry D supporters will demand it. Wingers will be whining like crazy and suddenly care about the constitution again.

Hypocrite. It's OK to openly defy the constitution as long as you're a winger. You guys have the morals of snake.

Posted by diaper boy on truth social. By far the most disturbing thing any President has said, in the history of this country. He's saying here that he can do whatever he wants because it's "right." He's now officially trying to be a dictator. It was arguable before but there's no doubt whatsoever anymore. We're in a true constitutional crisis and the morally weak wingers in congress won't do anything about it for 23 months (when Republicans lose control).

Well, if we are in a trade war with half the world, they can develop new & improved relationships with each other and we get cut out. Take a step back and look big pic. We are one of many developed countries in world.

That's not a funded program. It's a fundamental right granted by the Constitution and Founding fathers.

2 biggest problems I see (there are many): 1) congress appropriated money. Musks freezing of funding violates the constitution. Founding fathers are rolling over in their graves. 2) a lot of the money to the states is based upon delegated authority. States get money to enforce federal law and programs, because they can do it more efficiently.

Lmfao. So....we're comparing Musks power to Gretas? I know its a sad humor attempt but so far off that it isn't even funny.

It would possibly be a win win if other countries didn't retaliate. Welcome to the real world.
