If DOGE had built a reputation of rooting out fraud instead of being a government arsonist I think we would be having a very different conversation.
That’s a leap (if I’m being charitable). I think you could state that most people don’t trust DOGE, especially given DOGE’s apparent lack of concern for the American’s they are technically working in service of. I don’t believe DOGE has the capability of identifying fraud, let alone have the desire to stop it.
DOGE's actions have actually increased service provider fraud quite dramatically across all agencies, because the existing fraud prevention processes have all been circumvented.
Taking into account the increased costs DOGE has imposed on government agencies, DOGE's net "savings" to date are an estimated negative 100 billion for 2025 alone (meaning, that when all is said and done, DOGE will have caused the government to spend at least $100 billion more than it would have if DOGE had done nothing at all) and negative $500 billion for the remainder of Trump's term if their "cuts" are extended.
DOGE is what happens you put technoidiots in charge of things they know nothing about and think that technology is the magical solution to every problem.
