How DOGE cutbacks could create a major backlash
www.brookings.edu
Brookings Senior Fellow Elaine Kamarck explores the potential impact that DOGE-led federal cuts could have on Americans.
  • DOGE has been using AI systems to explore Social Security databases, but AI is prone to hallucinations.
  • Widespread cuts to the Food and Drug Administration could significantly undermine the government’s ability to identify the source of foodborne illnesses.
  • In its rush to shut down USAID, DOGE risks further harming the already fragile farm economy.
  • Reducing the CIA or FBI workforce in an era of asymmetric warfare, when threats to U.S. security can emerge from places most Americans have never heard of, may be, as intelligence expert David Ignatius put it, “the Trump administration’s most dangerous misstep.”

    Democrats right now are also showing to be absolutely terrible opposition party members. Only a few are constantly speaking up.

    Also might be just me but trump seems to be showing his age more to me in terms of appearance. His hair in particular is more white than ever to me.

      And Democrats have the gall to complain in private about how we want them to do something.
