Can’t wait to see how DOGE makes life worse for the random service members having to deal with a massive tightening of the belt downstream only to watch the endless parade of money flowing out for more and more weapons continue.
If you told me this was actually from the George W. Bush Admin I’d believe you.

I have no doubt loan fraud exists, but just once it’d be nice when the government actually showed its work when describing all the fraud they’re allegedly finding.
Also, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say you’re not uncovering much waste here, so much as you’re finding unscrupulous parents willing to **** over their child forever and the government being too willing to oblige by not doing their jobs in screening the loans. Which, to Elon’s immense credit here, is worthwhile.

Why aren't they checking the emails? I believe it was thethe who said
"This exercise is to cut the clear waste in the form of employees who either aren't working or have a useless role."
Seems like it shows that the DOGE employee who's supposed to be checking these emails isn't working.
I think it’s pretty obvious it’s because DOGE is employing thousands of dead people.

What am I supposed to do with this information? A dramatic uptick in fraudulent phone activity is not a compelling reason to reduce staffing, and might actually be a reason to increase it so you can better manage workloads to allow for fewer agents rushing and falling for these scams, in addition to the increased competition for agent time against actual SS-holders with issues.

If you don't think that ensuring we continue to carry the biggest stick is important, you need to reevaluate how the world works.
There are a lot of things to be critical about concerning the Trump Administration. This isn't one of them. Our military looked weak the last 4 years and it indirectly led to 2 Wars and major instability in Western Europe and the Middle East.

How did our military look weak?
We used almost no resources and repelled russia's invasion of the Ukraine with no boots on the ground or even modern weapons.
Retreating from Afghanistan and leaving billions of dollars in equipment behind and killing 13 American troops in the process? You really can't say how that made the US military look weak?
And WE didn't do anything but give money and weapons in the Ukraine war. And it didn't thwart Russia at all. How often did Putin and Biden discuss peace talks publicly? Trump takes office and almost immediately we see peace talks begin in both Russia and Palestine. I guess that's just a coincidence?

Retreating in Afghanistan on a treaty signed by Trump. I guess BIden could have renegged on the deal. But then people would have called him a warmonger and blamed him for spending more money on Afghanistan.
You're showing a revisionist history. Before we started supporting Ukraine Russia was marching towards Kiev. With old us weapons Ukraine repelled russia back to their borders.
It's not shocking that Putin is content working with Trump who'll let him get everything he ultimately wanted. If you could put 2 and 2 together you'd realize BIden wasn't going to give in to Putin while Trump will. It's not a coincidence, Putin now has more men (and women) on the inside than ever, he doesn't care because now basically he gets to write the US peace treaty.
Leaving Afghanistan wasn't the issue, although the Treaty did not obligate us to leave once the Taliban broke their end of the agreement. It was the manner in which we left that was the main issue. And it was decidedly considered a disaster by everyone.
There is no revisionist theory regarding Russia. Russia consistently occupied over 20% of Ukraine territory at it's height of the War. According to the best data available, Russia currently occupies roughly 20% of Ukraine territory. But yeah, they totally have been repelled back to their borders.....

Back to whose borders ?
Who allowed Putin to take the Donbas and more?
Who allowed him to take Crimea ?
Did those two people hold office together?
That’s what I thought

How did they get that equipment? By defeating the Afghan Security forces. People act like we left fully stocked american bases there. That's not the case, it was the Afghan Security forces who were taken over by the Taliban. Your proposal to resolve this? Keep thowing billions upon billions of dollars to make war that clearly isn't wanted by the people of the country?
There is clear revisionist history.
