    Fun fact, the US gov already has a government efficiency division and it’s called the Government Accountability Office. But I do enjoy the irony of Trump’s government having two efficiency departments.

        You can escape your dash so it doesn’t become a bullet.

        - like so

        \- you need only add a backslash beforehand.
        Same for *other* formatting.

        An efficiency department that apparently needs two leaders, as well. Sounds…inefficient.

      Also I love that the efficiency department has two leaders. Can’t get more efficient than that

      In NZ, David Seymour at least axed the old Productivity Commission (which his own ACT party founded) to create his new Ministry for Regulation.

      Apparently they didn’t like the answers they got out of the previous version.

          Apparently they kept saying things like ‘long-term investment is important and private companies are bad at that’, ‘worker productivity is harmed by poor health and education’, ‘strong urban planning is necessary’.

    The acronym of the new department - DOGE - coincides with the name of the cryptocurrency Dogecoin that Musk promotes.

      this was musk’s play all along, his ‘quid’ to the ‘pro quo’ of spending a couple hundred million of his money to put that shitstain back into power.

            He’s addicted to ketamine. When that stops working, which it will, he’ll either OD or switch to stimulants like Trump and Hitler.

            People with antisocial personality disorders tend to not like classical psychedelics as much as they let on. As it tends to be a humbling experience. Which is scary when you think the world revolves around you.

    I can’t say 100% of america but 50% of america is actually watching and supporting a 2.0 version of my country 90 years ago.

        No, she’s already been tapped to be UN ambassador.

        I guess the UN delegates need a laugh too.

    As proven from that “your meme game is strong” clip Mush is immune to any sort of self reflection.
    I suppose that’s fortunate. If anyone else were appointed by Trump to a government position named after a meme cryptocurrency the amount cringe generated could sterilize a continent.
