Republicans introduce the DOGE Act cutting $114 billion from the budget for energy, climate, health, transportation and veterans, but not defense

[Pressure]

ehh. i'd have to see exactly what they're cutting

there's not a single area where the government doesn't waste money. trimming fat does not equal elimination of anything

if republicans are really out here cutting essential services for veterans, fukk it. gives Dems something to run on

Why no defense cuts?

Why no defense cuts?

bring troops home from germany and japan, and put them on the southern border. stop giving boeing and lockheed so much fukkin money, to make planes and tanks we don't need

“This result was not a surprise, and I know that on the surface it doesn't sound like we're making progress. However, that is not the case,” said DoD comptroller Michael McCord.

MAGA claims they're anti-war. progressives won't get a better opportunity to start calling for defense cuts

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

They even cutting spending for veterans, shameless. Risk your life fighting for oligarchs, plutocrats, and Zionists just so they can cut your reward.

Hopefully they remove that pesky DEI from the military so more white males can join.

How will this affect the FBA family?

They'll cut everything giving so much as a hint of tangibles for FBA.




Which will open the door for tangibles specifically for FBA

Dumb ass white veterans voters in bucktown usa always yelling USA and trump trump trump now you just like everyone else is about to get fukk

 

[UnQuantized]

MAGA will look the other way for now because they put so much value on keeping their foot on liberal necks but when they snap it will be historic

 

[Diunx]

Of course national defense won't be cut. It's a business

And Elon is part of it.

They really found a way to put that DOGE meme into law

Our government invoking internet memes into real issues that effect every day American citizens. This is so funny and totally something to laugh at hahahahahahaha

 

[Lord Beasley]

shyt doesn't make sense considering what's being done right now, today. You don't do these things with a proposed debt ceiling increase

But hear me out here.

I get the existence of enemies but Every single vassal state already makes its own weapons whether we are talking Israel or Korea or Japan. The NATO countries still have their legacy cold war arsenals, and their own competing military contractors. And once again, we would still have more spending than every individual country on earth if we cut the budget in half.

I doubt the Republican super majority cares about jobs or citizens at all. They keep getting the votes irregardless. Republicans have chosen to repeatedly screw over their voting base on everything from healthcare, to inflation, to being the original proponents of outsourcing. They are the same ones currently trying to cut hundreds of thousands of jobs from the federal govt. So I find it hard to believe that the military alone is some sacred cow, when they were seriously considering taking out social security earlier this year and are currently gutting medicade/medicare.

I mean for God sakes, the previously sacred veterans are going to get VA coverage gutted under this presidential term according to proj 2025.

The sacred cow is the cash cow.
Social security is an expense, and in their eyes, a Leftist New Deal era act that is antiquated. Pro-Hoovers, if you will, in this sense. 95% of Congresspeople will never use social security, so even though it would benefit their constituents, it bears no weight to their lives personally.

And remember, Hoover, a Republican, did not support the vets. Hoovervilles sprouted up in DC during the beginning of the Great Depression, with veterans demanding their pensions from World War I.

If I’m not mistaken, Medicaid and Medicare were established under ANOTHER democrat who they considered had a Leftist agenda, Lyndon B Johnson.

Wait until they double down on the tariff business.

Let's get it. Give the voters what they want.
