Are Trump and Musk looking for and eliminating waste, or for spending that runs counter to their agenda?

Wrecking the Department of Education
“Is “twisted” a good word for this, or is it too mild?
We’re talking about deliberating making our country more ignorant, more likely to elect a fascist dictator, and less capable of competing on the world stage.
Maybe “evil” is better.

Few People Shift Their Viewpoints on Trump
You and I may agree with the author of the meme here, but the typical Trump supporter is delighted that their leader has released 1500 cop-beaters from prison and is threatening to invade our allies.
I often ask Trump supporters if they see any gray area, i.e., if the president has done anything that is in any way morally questionable in their view. I’ve never gotten a yes answer, regardless of how outrageous the latest news is.
Of course, some of these people are typical MAGA idiots, but some are highly educated and extremely well-read. That’s how strong the pull is here.

It Was Only Recently That …
Until quite recently, the United States was an honorable country.
In particular, our presidents weren’t criminal bullies.

The Ultimate Shell Game–It’s Over Here! No It’s Not.
People speculate that Trump’s plan is to bombard the country and the rest of the world with enough outrageous stupidity that some of it sticks, and that it really doesn’t matter which part.
Re: the meme here, Trump is a convicted felon, and Netanyahu could be arrested any day by the International Criminal Court on numerous crimes against humanity. But here at home, Americans are worrying about Canada, Greenland, the Panama Canal, the destruction of American education, and climate change.
Where exactly should we be focusing our attention? It’s over here …. Oh wait.
What We’ve Become — In So Short a Period of Time
I guess the 25-year-old neo-Nazi who’s part of Elon Musk’s presidency wasn’t expecting to have to resign in disgrace like this. A pity.
Sorry for the sarcasm. What’s truly a pity is the moral cesspool that this country has become.
From today’s Wall Street Journal.

RFK Jr. Endangers Our Health and Safety, But Do We Really Care?
We all know that RFK Jr. has no understanding of science. But let’s be honest: ignorance of, or the outright rejection of science is par for the course at this point in American history–especially at the highest levels of government.
In just the first two weeks of his second presidency, Trump has already made great strides in replacing every scientifically competent federal government employ with a MAGA thug whose only qualification is his loyalty. Proficiency has no more relevance now than the color of the ties he wears, or the style of his shoes.

Lunacy Reigns Supreme
If we’ve learned anything in the short period of time since Trump’s second inauguration, it’s that there is no basis to expect rational thinking from the U.S. president. Lunacy is the order of the day, and if we expect anything else, we’ll soon be just as insane as he is.

Looking at the Demise of USAID
Here’s a gentleman who looks at the apparent demise of USAID in religious terms.
I would submit that the act is just as despicable when viewed through a secular lens.

Another Weird Phenomenon in America
The latest fad in American society seems to be denying the existence of things that clearly do exist.
If you hate/fear people of minority sexual orientations, that’s a shame, but it’s your own business. If you don’t believe they exist, or that they should disappear from the face of the Earth through some mysterious force, that’s just pathetic.
It’s like saying that lemons and oranges don’t exist.
