DOGE has found some low-hanging fruit (USAID) but they've also announced
other "fraud" that involves their misunderstanding of system default dates
and would indeed be "nothing to see here" if it were not so worrisome.

Just because it is "approved spending" doesn't mean it is not wasteful.
The Republicans have also approved many things that are a waste, too, I am
sure.  Hint - DOGE is also suggesting cuts to Defense spending, which is
typically not something Democrats race to spend money on.

Not really.  A lot of people voted for Trump because they were tired of
seeing their grocery bills go up and were tired of being unheared.  So far,
they've not received *any* relief at the grocery store.  Others voted for him
as the lesser of two evils... it was either him or someone who was completely
incompetent as VP.

Only the most partisan of Trump voters were looking for someone to "stick
it to the liberals/left/Democrats."  The rest just didn't want 4 more years
of what we already had.
