U.S. Loses Last Triple-A Credit Rating
Moody’s Ratings downgraded the U.S. government, citing large fiscal deficits and rising interest costs.
www.wsj.com
If you want to understand how good a job DOGE is doing in reducing the deficit, just ask the bond market. The US is now no longer trustworthy enough to deserve it’s triple A rating. Are we great again yet?
Seems to have happened to a lot of people... 🙃

Ouch, pass the 🍿 . Problem is that Elon and DOGE already illegally broke into all the government systems and consolidated all the data into the DOGE master database, so guess who gets all that data when the DOGE-Father is fired? Elon was just a tool and a fool.

Yep, all of DOGE's work is eclipsed by 4.5 Trillion tax break that Trump's Big Beautiful Bill gives back to the rich and the debt just keeps growing. The reality of his folly of supporting Trump is finally sinking in. He was just a tool for Trump all along.

About right. Plus while we currently spend more of our tax money on interest payments for our debt than we spend on the entire US military, those interest costs are going up.

Just wait till the MAGA voters realize they are not getting the $5000 checks from all the savings DOGE never produced.
Three swing state voters are suing Elon Musk, claiming he stiffed them on promised payments. The MAGA crowd is turning on itself nothing like buying votes and forgetting to pay up. Most of them still feel entitled to their million dollars.

Republicans realize they will lose mid terms with Trumps budget, but how do they still give 4.5 Trillion to the rich without increasing the deficit? DOGE was supposed to be the answer but they saved less than 100B by most accounts, so they can no longer use that reason.

Another lawsuit to uncover the deceptions of DOGE. If they were really working on deficit reduction, why would they take so many steps to hide? They use Signal instead of Slack so their messages disappear. They are deceptive about their org. Legally required responses to FOIAs are ignored.

Hmm... more details on the firing of Elon's pick for IRS leader. My guess is that Elon wanted Shapley because he would let Elon and DOGE into the data and to revamp the IRS systems. Elon and DOGE are all about the data, not deficit reduction, and the IRS data is at the heart.

Per FOIA law, all government agencies are required to be transparent, except of course the DOGE.
Why?
Well they say they are not an agency, except of course when they need to steal our data, then they make themselves employees of whatever agency they are infiltrating.
