Someone actually pre-drafted a #FOIA request for you to send directly to #DOGE so that you can find out what personal information of yours that ketamine-addled doofus has. Here's a link to it. Happy hunting.

We'll say it again because certain people need to hear it: pay for federal workers accounts for just 4.3% of the budget.
If the federal government were to fire every single worker, it would only reduce government spending by less than 5%.
What DOGE is doing is just cruelty.
