I still want to know what happened with the 20 million dead people that Musk said were getting Social Security payments. His DOGE gang couldn't find any. So are they still getting their checks?
Elon Musk's DOGE wasted more than $21 billion in just six months. Other studies have found that in the long term it may cost the government more than it saved, while resulting in millions of deaths.

Does ICE now meet the criteria to be considered a secret police force, like the Gestapo?
Political science says yes.

No country has ever been destroyed by migrants just wanting a better life for their family.

Today, 85 years ago: The peak of the "Miracle of Dunkirk," with ~ 70,000 British troops evacuated.
The successful rescue at Dunkirk allows Britain to survive in 1940, which makes possible allied victory later.
Lesson: You need to survive your Dunkirk before you can attack and win on your D-Day.
