    The problem is literally none of these people are equipped to make informed decisions. Every single one is a techbro which means they know fucking nothing about how anything functions in the government. Simply put they lack the education and experience to make any informed decisions.

    Why would you think a business guy who is a fucking idiot and a bunch of twenty something programmers are going to understand the US budget and economy? You might as well pick pre-schoolers as they are just as equipped

    I don’t think you have any understanding of what is going on here.

      I never said they have any idea what they are doing. I said that’s what they are trying to do. Time will tell if they succeed in finding all the money that leaks out of our government like a colander.

      I agree that there are probably many, MANY more people who would be more qualified to be doing this particular job, but that’s not what we got.

      I’m just along for the ride at this point. If y’all wanna storm the White House for a real revolution let me know. Until it reaches that point I’m just gonna choose to hope some amount of good can come from all this.

      It probably won’t, but you never know. Crazier things have happened.

        The thing is that’s not what they are trying to do. That is what the propaganda sources you follow are telling you they are doing.

        This is about laying the groundwork for the fascist coup.

          I don’t follow any propaganda sources lol. I don’t use Twitter. I don’t watch fox news or whatever it is you are assuming I do.

          I consume a great amount of news from across the spectrum and I try to find the truth that I assume lies somewhere in the middle.

          I speak to my far left friends and family about politics often. I speak to my handful of right leaning friends and family a bit less, but I still talk to them fairly often.

          I recognize my methods aren’t perfect but it’s better than most people will do these days.

            You posted a Sinclair owned station so yes you did post a propaganda source even if you are unaware of that fact.

              Alright man. You find a source you like. Pretty much every news source has reported on the USAID situation.

                Yeah but the take of an actual journalistoc source is going to be better
