WHEN WILL DOGE INCOMPETENCE BE STOPPED?

When will DOGE be convinced that massive amounts of fraud are not to be found in the social Security Administration? Fact: Social Security is among the most scrutinized and audited agencies in government. With frequent probes by its 500-person Office of Inspector General. It pays outside auditors to examine its books. Congress grills agency officials. Last year, a major focus in congressional hearings led by the GOP wasn’t waste or fraud — it was about Social Security being too aggressive in clawing back accidental benefit overpayments. Whoops. When asked about the reams of audits and reports that appear to contradict Trump and Musk’s assertions of rampant waste and fraud in Social Security, WH spokesman Harrison Fields said the cost-cutting operation was being unfairly maligned. “The continued attempts to sow doubt in the massive accomplishments of this never-before-seen effort to make government more efficient speaks more about the illegitimacy of those peddling these falsehoods than the good work of DOGE,” Fields said. “The American public are in lockstep with the president’s mission and will not be swayed by more lies coming from the legacy media.” I’m rubber. You’re glue. (Y’all remember the head-spinning pronouncements in the face of reality once made by the Iraqi spokesman nicknamed ‘Baghdad Bob’? He’s got nothing on this guy.) Elon Musk made promises to cut waste and fraud. But he has no understanding of the systems he looks at. He is cutting things willy-nilly in an attempt to make his accusations appear true. Finding waste and fraud has turned into ‘cut a bunch of stuff so I can put out some dubious findings to prove I was right.’ All so he can keep an irresponsible boast to make the government efficient. A boast made in total ignorance of what he thought he would find. How’s that going? Where’s the proof? Any proof. Any official anything. We don’t see it. Do you? But we do see malfeasance. Mismanagement. Blind ignorance. Hubris. Wild claims without proof. Inefficiency to the max. Casual cruelty. And an overwhelmingly cavalier attitude to any suffering caused by guys who don’t know WTF they’re doing. But have been given the power to do it anyway. Then have the nerve to say that people trying to do their jobs for the people are lazy. Wasteful. Corrupt. And deserve everything they get. I hope y’all have a plan in place to fix everything you’ve allowed to be broken. Because this is your ballgame. Yours and yours alone.
