Please stop saying it saved money until you understand the value of what was cut. They are downsizing, and if the stuff getting cut had real value, its not a saving.
DOGE says it has saved $55 billion in federal spending so far, but its website only accounts for $16.6 billion of that

A fun thing to do with this supposed Napoleon quote is to do a google search to see what forums it appeared on with this exact wording before 2022. I'm no computer whiz, so maybe I messed up, but the only hits I got were these two...for Stormfront, a neo-Nazi forum.

If you want to do something about USAID, a very easy thing is go find your state in this folder of state-by-state cuts, and share it widely. If you still have a Twitter account, share it on there. Anywhere you have followers. These cuts are going to take billions and billions out of the US economy.

I wince at people calling every single thing a distraction. Even if it is a distraction it’s still
1) a thing that is actually happening
2) a thing that is hurting people
3) a thing that also needs to be fought and illuminated
“It’s just a distraction”feels so dismissive.

Re: "distractions":
Most people I know are capable of paying attention to more than one thing at a time.
You're trying to decide for other people what they should or shouldn't focus on.
One person's distraction may be another person's health or safety.
