Summary
Vivek Ramaswamy, recently appointed to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has proposed defunding federal programs that lack current congressional authorization.
This could affect programs like veterans’ healthcare, NASA, and early education initiatives, which still receive funding despite expired authorizations.
Ramaswamy argues that cutting these programs could save billions, and he’s committed to targeting expenditures that “don’t advance the interests of American citizens.”
DOGE, co-led by Elon Musk, aims to curb government spending, with Musk estimating potential cuts of up to $2 trillion.
Is it really a political hand grenade? Seems like majority of vets vote red no matter what.
Nah, they’re observant. They have to be. They’re trained to be. They may be young and dumb, but they’ll see shit like this. Trust me, I’ve been there. The young ones may vote red but the older ones dont. And that matters in the military.
I’d like to believe you, but 65% red is a pretty high number. https://responsiblestatecraft.org/veterans-vote-trump/
That’s in the face of nearly every military leader that had contact with Trump saying he was unfit, Trump having that weird campaign event at a cemetery, etc.
