The richest man in the world stole over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money.
He was not dead.

DOGE reminds me of a homeowner who buys an old house, then starts working on it by hacking out all sorts of stuff without bothering to figure out how any of it works. So they end up ruining things that were perfectly fine, and spending lots of times repairing the damage they did.
Pretty sure the goal here is to just ruin stuff, then point to the mess and use that as an excuse to cut even more.

republicans claim that government doesn't work
when republicans get elected they break government and say 'see, we told you it doesn't work'
when Democrats get elected they try to fix what republicans broke
republicans block everything Democrats try to do to fix what republicans broke and blame Democrats for not fixing what republicans broke
republicans claim government doesn't work
wash, rinse, repeat - and still people vote for republicans

Oh yeah, they slash funding then a year later they say "X agency took this long to do this! It's failed" Then when someone suggests fixing it you get "Throwing money at it won't solve the problem" (Which someone had a great answer to- "seems to be what they do with the Pentagon")
