Government spending UP even after DOGE. They saved nothing but destroyed much. It will take a long time to rebuild what was broken. We may never know the true toll in treasure and lives.
Federal agencies are rehiring workers and spending more after DOGE’s push to cut
Eight months after the Department of Government Efficiency effort to shrink the federal workforce began, some agencies are hiring workers back — and spending more money than before.

Imagine you are in a post-apocalyptic world with zombies. There is a spray you can use to ward off zombies. It works well, but is short-acting.
Someone made a new spray that is more long-acting. You want to test it out to see the difference.

That was obvious when we saw the language. A lot of it is about the Danish study he tried to get retracted, even though it was actually very impactful and well done. Study authors and others have debunked RFK Jr’s take on that study, but now his mistaken interpretation is on the CDC site.
RFK Jr. revealed that he personally ordered the CDC to change its website to push the widely debunked claim that vaccines and autism are linked
