any real source that isnt the insane drivel of breitbart?
I still cant believe you are sucking down these lies. Full throating fascist nonsense.
Seems like if they were outright lying, then that'd be a great news story for another news org. All the news org would have to do is find the real numbers, then tell everyone how much of a liar Breitbart is.
But I don't see any doing that. So I'm on Breitbarts side on this!
Everyone look, this is a good example of how you end up like this. Homie don't fact check.
Are there Democrats posting real numbers to offset all of these "lies"? I haven't seen any, but I don't read every piece of news in the world, so if there are, I'm cool with seeing them.
Just post links here and also, post links to this sub. I'm totally fine with any numbers. I wanna see audits. From BOTH sides.
Because I think BOTH sides are fucking wasting money on shit and not telling us.
I don't trust the richest man on earth, especially unelected, especially in a fake department with less oversight than most. Ocams razor says he is cutting programs so he can give himself a tax cut. If we get anything other than a consolation prize for this I'd be extremely surprised.
I don't know if every program is pure non-corrupt stuff, but nothing in the article you posted made me think it was corrupt. People use drugs, if it is common for folks on testosterone to use certain drugs then it is reasonable to study the interaction. Maybe you are culturally anti-drug and don't even think it is reasonable to study. In that case I think you do you but abstinence only sex end has proven to lead to more pregnancy.
Maybe its about the animals, that I get, but also laws against animal testing are the way forward not some rando going in and "being a strong man for the people". That's dictator talk.
Again, I say that the dem politicians have more access that Musk does. Why aren't they just publishing/ording audits that show all the numbers, then explain the numbers. Then they can easily prove that Musk is lying or fucking shit up.
They are mum on the subject so far, other than saying he sucks. Why is that?
Publish the fucking numbers. This waste has carried on thru BOTH administrations. I didn't vote for Trump, but I love that this is happening.
I want the Democrats to publish the numbers and the reasoning behind it all. And I was reasons why any waste hasn't been found before this.
And if the Democrats have done this, which maybe the have I an I have overlooked it, then please send the links. Because I really wanna see the hard numbers and the justifications for all this shit.
What do you mean by "all this shit". Do you mean you want to understand the entire federal budget?
Edit: here's a start if you really want to try and do that https://www.govinfo.gov/app/collection/budget/2025
lol I want to know how Democrats justify some of this money being spent.
Wish I could help ya, but it looks like ya don't wanna be convinced. How do I respond to such a general dismissal? You give me too much to do.
I don't think your confusion is justification for ending the programs. I think the government needs to be more transparent, but I don't think we need to gut it first. I don't think gutting it is going to make it more transparent. Why shoot in the dark?
Sure, but to my point, how come the Democrats haven't printed an audit and justification for these numbers? They have more access than Musk.
If Musk is "lying" then it's very every easy to prove. And there are plenty of liberal-leaning news orgs that would be happy to prove the lies.
But how come that's not happening?! Were is the fucking audit?
And for the record, I don't even think he Republicans are doing enough. Musk brings up this numbers, which is a great start.
But I want numbers, I want names of the politicians who approved the numbers/budgets and I want to hear their justifications. Regardless of political party.
I don’t think your confusion is justification for ending the programs.
Well lots of people disagree with you. Which is why it's happening. You should be writing to your democrat politicians to start justifying the numbers for these programs so that at least the public knows the details.
I don’t think gutting it is going to make it more transparent.
Well, keeping them didn't help with the transparency either. Where are the democrat audits and justification for these numbers? Where are the names of the people that approved? I want answers from both sides of the aisle.
Until that happens, then fucking gut them. Cuz shit wasn't be done before. There seems to be a lot of fucking waste here. And not just military waste.
Post the numbers and the justifications for keeping them, then we can have a discussion.
That is mental sickness level.
Between their celebration of murdering babies before a baby can breath, their love of mutilation of human genitals, and addiction to mass injections, there really are some fanatical eugenicists.
