Left angry about losing waste and fraud?

 Blaze:

...

“Why do they hate you so much?” Cruz asked.

“If DOGE was ineffective, if we were not actually getting rid of a bunch of waste and fraud – and a bunch of that fraud, I mean, from what we’re seeing, is overwhelmingly on the left. It’s not zero on the right, but these NGOs are almost all left-wing NGOs that are being funded, for example. So they hate me because DOGE is being effective and DOGE is getting rid of a lot of waste and fraud that people on the left were taking advantage of,” Musk responded.

“The single biggest thing that they're worried about is that DOGE is going to turn off fraudulent payments of entitlements — I mean everything from Social Security, Medicare, unemployment, disability, small business administration loans — ... to illegals. This is the crux of the matter. This is the thing why they really hate my guts and want me to die,” he continued. “By using entitlements fraud, the Democrats have been able to attract and retain vast numbers of illegal immigrants.”

“And buy voters,” Cruz added.

“And buy voters — exactly,” Musk agreed. “They basically bring in, I don’t know, 10-20 million people who are beholden to the Democrats for government handouts and will vote overwhelmingly Democrat.”

“It’s an election strategy,” co-host Ben Ferguson chimed in.

“Yes, and it doesn’t take much to turn the swing states blue,” Musk said.

“Elon Musk is right,” says Liz. “The reason that all this anger and vitriol and violence is being aimed at him is because he is under the direction of President Trump rooting out where the corruption festers.”
...

DOGE is apparently uncovering how Democrat spending is primarily responsible for not only waste fraud and abuse but also for the ever-growing national debt.  Rolling back that wasteful spending is a good start in getting the deficit under control and many Democrats are not willing to do it.  If Democrats cannot win elections without buying votes then they need to change their agenda.  Musk is a really smart guy and we should give him an opportunity to turn things around when it comes to government spending.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
