Again
It's your own post that quotes NYC comptroller Brad Lander calling it fema money.
Your a self righteous, obnoxious, combative twit with no desire to engage in civil discussion. Have a good day.

"this is money that the federal government previously disbursed for shelter and services and is now missing."
To whom was this fema money going to for shelter and services? Illegal immigrants? I'm not aware of any recent disaster in NYC that would require fema's assistance.

Obviously fraud, waste and abuse isn't something that started under Biden, but why have previous administration's, both Republican and Democrat, not give it the attention it deserved?

I don’t know. There is precedent with marijuana laws though.
I do mostly agree that as long as they don’t interfere……
I am reminded of sheriffs not enforcing laws they didn’t agree with, like gun laws and covid restrictions. No right wing fervor was noted over law and order then, so I’m not seeing where there should be fervor over this.
Because Trump is a petty and vengeful man?

Apparently state’s right are a one way street?
Do you know is states have the discretion to not enforce federal laws? I don't know. Personally, I think as long as states don't actively impede federal agencies from doing their job. The whole thing sucks. Interesting times.

I watched the hearing on CSPAN3. Did not learn anything, very disappointed. There were four witnesses there, three pro DOGE, one anti-DOGE, not many questions asked of them, mostly grandstanding. We have some congressmen, and women, that are truly pathetic. It's sad that these are the people we elected to govern us.

DOGE needs to look into the VA. Specifically, their efficiency in processing claims and criteria used to determine if something is service connected. Not saying everyone should receive a 100% VA rating but there are some disparities I have seen when you compare two former service members' ratings given their occupation specialty, operational history, and time in service.
It's all dependent on what's in your medical records. Many soldiers don't like going to sick call because there's a stigma attached to it. Also, the process of getting a sick call slip signed, getting to sick call and waiting in line could take the whole morning, too much hassle for some.

This is funny.

If it’s not including high worth congressmen and senators its not targeting the right places.
Agreed. I'd guess a 50/50 split between the parties on corruption.

I don't know if all these congressmen in the video are lying. I suppose they could be, hopefully we learn something from tomorrow's hearings.

Everything @DOGE does will be published for the world to see.
Let the public judge for themselves.

This can't end well...

This is interesting, I wonder how it plays out on appeal.

Ah, the sweet taste of radical right wing propaganda. When it comes to a thirst for confirmation bias, nothing quenches it better than a steaming pile of radical right wing propaganda. Yummy.
I didn't mean to trigger your TDS. pace yourself, it's going to be a long four years.

I agree with everything you said. I'm astonished his approval rating is so high, and I wonder what it represents, if anything.

This is apparently breaking news. I certainly hope it is inaccurate.

I’m speechless. This is second and third tier nation stuff. Goes against every business ethics class and training session I have ever taken.
I really, really hope I get embarrassed into taking this post down.
I share your concerns. I did read something in there about rewriting some of the language, so maybe it's not being scrapped altogether? Scrapping it seems batshit crazy, even for Trump. I can't believe his approval rating is so high.

Correction, not shut down. Paused while it goes through the courts. And the administration is certainly making noise around ignoring the courts.
I read today that court enforcement would be the jurisdiction of the US Marshals….. who are under the executive branch and now headed up by a Trump loyalist.
Lots to be concerned about.
Thank you for correcting me on the bolded Weave. Also, I appreciate the civil discussion.
