We need a DOGE to eliminate fraud, waste and abuse

Of course, trump using that name did the opposite - both directions, cutting and spending. Oh, look, JD Vance had a birthday. "While Congress slashed healthcare to give billionaires a tax break, JD Vance took a trip out to Ohio for his birthday. He made the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers raise the water levels of a river so he could have a nice kayaking trip." At least he didn't have a hundreds of millions military parade.

JD Vance went kayaking for his birthday. Secret Service had the river level raised

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Vice President JD Vance’s security detail had an Ohio river’s water level raised last weekend to accommodate a kayaking trip he and his family took to celebrate his 41st birthday.

The U.S. Secret Service said it requested the increased waterflow for the Little Miami River, first reported by The Guardian, to ensure motorized watercraft and emergency personnel “could operate safely” while protecting the Republican vice president, whose home is in Cincinnati.

But critics immediately blasted the action as a sign of the vice president’s entitlement, particularly given the Trump administration’s focus on slashing government spending.

Richard W. Painter, who served as chief White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush, said on X that “it’s outrageous for the Army corps of engineers to spend taxpayer money to increase water flow in a river so @VP can go canoeing when budget cuts to the National Park Service have severely impacted family vacations for everyone else.”

Had to get the water level above the bullshit level.

Well, there's a reason one of Trump's first moves was to fire all the inspector-generals.

Another "power" which needs to be changed when we've passed the tenure of Trump.
