DDS

"Elon Musk's DOGE committee hasn't been able to turn up any serious evidence of fraud, waste, or abuse yet." – Ryan Grim, Counter Points, Feb 6th

There has been something percolating in the air these last few days that stinks the stench of TDS, otherwise known as the famed and original virus known as Trump Derangement Syndrome. Or,could it be the newer mutated strain, EDS, known as Elon Derangement Syndrome. While these are definitely the floating viruses now, I'm afraid they will count a 3rd strain to accompany them. Please allow me to christen and identify the newest strain of public illness that put a stranglehold to a select group of the American public: DDS, or "DOGE Derangement Syndrome." DDS broke in the public in the last three weeks and has steadily spread amongst the masses ever since, but only those who already have comorbidities, i.e. TDS or EDS or even if unfortunate enough, a combination of both. I say this with all due respect to those who have contracted the virus, because there is hope. Maybe this article could help you solve for the illness and overcome it.

On January 14th, @DOGE first broke the news to the public on X that according to http://usaspending.gov USAID using using taxpayer dollars to fund foreign aid with three cited examples, of what would turn out to be a few mere grains of sand from the infinite desert of riches beyond anyone in the general public's knowledge. That was a $40 Billion supermassive black hole of government spending and intelligence machinery the likes of which feels more like the Spectre Organization from James Bond meets the Illuminati.

So, line item one, day one, inside an Executive Order, we have that now shuddered underneath the State Department with Secretary of State Marco Rubio handling the transition of its authorities and accessibilities worldwide, coupled with the president's 90-day pause on all foreign aid. This organization is responsible, on the books, for forking over $1 million to Eco-Health Alliance, which then allocated some of this funding to bolster research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), which, through it's well known gain-of-function researching, pumped up bat viruses and then ultimately leaked COVID-19 all over the place. This thing is so fantastically destructive it's been cited for: – Connections in conjunction with CIA with the impeachment of President Trump in December 2019 – Internews Network, a government-funded 501(c)(3), a supposed non-profit with ties to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The World Bank and the Clinton Global Initiative, where most of it's funding come from a USAID bag of $480 million, and the CEO makes $500k. They work with 4,000+ outlets to “train journalists” and “tackle disinformation”. It's been linked to numerous examples of internet censorship and rallying all around for advertiser boycotts on X as well as other social media platforms. – Funneled through USAID $5 Billion going back to the the 90's and another $1 billion injection in 2014 to the Ukrainian protests and uprising, Victoria Nuland, the lead U.S. point person for Ukraine's Revolution of Dignity, establishing the provisions of non-lethal assistance to the Ukrainian military and border guard and ultimately flipped the government from pro-Russia to Pro-west i.e., United States. This is a microwaved explanation of how we ultimately arrived at the Russia/Ukraine war today. Any one of these threads can be pulled to a haunting degree of diabolically unfathomable meddling and international destabilizing all for the personal gain of.... Uh... Americans? Civilized everyday taxpayers?

The American people asked Obama to put Joe Biden as the head of Ukraine Policy, and then threaten Kyiv to withhold a $1 billion loan unless the prosecutor after his son, Hunter, for the Burisma Scandal, was fired? Did the American people ask to be targeted by their own money in the form of countless NGO's that ultimately turned their guns right back on the homeland for intent censorship and election rigging? Was it for barrels of crude oil? No, rare earth minerals? No, uh, footholds in which territory? Or, I mean, elections that favor the west for economic expansion and global commerce?

At this time of that most fantastical - as in characterized by fantasy- quotable opening quote, DOGE had saved the American public approximately $50 Billion dollars in excess, aggressive or fiscally uninhibited spending and complete financial misallocation of taxpayer money.

That's being rather polite about it, to be polite where the courtesy is most certainly unnecessary, like how one party prefers to frame the homeless in America under the nomenclature "unhoused" cleaning up the public perception, thus watering down the complete severity of the problem altogether and successfully drawing funds to combat it going unnoticed, but I sincerely digress... My ADHD even attacks in written form. This is also an enormous story of waste, fraud and abuse, but for another time, otherwise please see the literary doyen Michael Shellenberger who has written countless pieces on California's, and other's failure to provide on this.

Some of the more choice line items that DOGE has discovered and put away are as follows:

– Again, USAID, uncovered as nearly an entire organization completely dedicated as a Deepstate octopus for the entire American foreign Intelligence Community. See anything

Mike Benz has been putting out every fifteen seconds for the past three weeks. let alone his entire professional life.

– $9mm, including contracts for “Central American gender assessment consultant services”, “Brazil forest and gender consultant services”, and the “women in forest carbon initiative mentorship program.” – 150 thousand some-odd subscriptions to the New York Times given to various federal agencies and workforces totaling approximately $2 Million. – $1.5mm to a single contractor at the Dept of Education to “observe mailing and clerical operations” at a mail center.” (that sounds like a Sam 'Ace' Rothstein "Food and Beverage Manager" kind of thing, this could be honestly be a movie in itself)

"In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary: 'Come again?'" – Bricktop It's unknown to me if that means it's literally a 'single person' or a single contractor, as in complete third-party company's payroll, which would make (slightly) more sense but still a extravagant amount of money considering the average mail processor, otherwise known as a PSE Sales & Services/Distribution Associate, can be found at any local post office branch averages around $21 an hour depending on the city. That's around $43k a year, so... they needed (this is in addition to their office and mail clerks already employed) 39 more specialized mail overseers? It's worse if they needed just one person for those duties, for whatever the reason, when the Postmaster General of United States Postal Service made a reported salary $430k in 2021, including -checks notes - a "performance bonus" of $75k?

Again, these are verified figures against unverified specifics, but, as we pull the thread on the sweater, does this look like its going to hold together and keep you safe in all this federal fiscal ferocity?

Asian, Hispanic, democrat, republican, independent, short, tall, fat, skinny, medium, Ozempic, intelligent, slow-witted, Adderall, average, rich, middle-class, low-income, working student, retiree drawing benefits, city/state/fed worker, military, man, woman. Everyone. All of us, we got had, duped, bamboozled, played, and we didn't even know the game had started. What is being done is something that dectuples down on the 1982 budget review by the Grace Commission authorized by President Reagan in Executive Order 12369. He told them to "work like tireless bloodhounds.... leave no stone unturned to root out inefficiency." The report explained "With two thirds of everyone's personal income taxes wasted or not collected, 100 percent of what is collected is absorbed solely by interest on the federal debt and by federal government contributions to transfer payments. In other words, all individual income tax revenues are gone before one nickel is spent on the services that taxpayers expect from their government."

This is more dire now than ever before with a trillion dollars of debt being added every hundred days, we are spending beyond what's literally available, essentially overdrafting the debit account until those blessed cows do in fact come home.

This kind of truly revolutionary change is a president saying what he was going to do on the campaign trail, getting in, and then doing all the exact things the American public voted him in for. Lots of promises get made, but Trump continues to fill every one of them, just take a look back at his Week 1.

Insurrection Barbie has a tremendously detailed breakdown of the entire week. Elon is Trump's efficiency expert in DOGE, the hatchet man of federal financial frivolity. tasked with rooting out wasted money, missing money and corrupted federal agencies with people engaging in all sorts of graft, theft and hoarding and lying. Even more so than our own elected government officials, every time DOGE or he does anything, they transparently put it out there for everyone to see, nothing in the shadows, nothing behind closed doors, nothing inside a SCIF, everything is behind a glass case for all to see live. For all to react to live, for all critique and lambast or jeer or cheer or debate or correct or provide details and insights to, or questions or even Community Notes for.

@X, together with @DOGE, @elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump's EO's, are changing the landscape of the country faster than anyone could have really though possible. A government teardown, a completely medically-necessary emergency surgery, a rebellion from the entrenchment in the muck of the swap and the tentacles of the octopus, needs to become reality. Government accountability and efficiency has become a paramount function. This kind of bullrushing of top-down changes hasn't ever been tried in my lifetime, and I'm very excited about the distinct possibilities and very clear evidence that things can finally turn around with a mandate from the people to the commander and then delivered back to the people in what vice president JD Vance explained, "This is the new normal. Expect this rapid-fire, breakneck pace to continue for 4 full years." Reciprocity.

And remember, this is a temporary posting, this expires July 4th 2026, it's made to be a broadsword and scalpel that self-destruct. Even now, earlier today federally downsize, a small government and powerful economy with focus not on global expansion and conquering, but homeland strengthening with international attention being brought to us, not us to them. James Madison was a believer in this as well. It reminds me of Thomas Jefferson's response in a letter to Madison in regards to Shay's Rebellion, an uprising of Massachusetts's farmers against government taxation and foreclosure, post-Revolutionary War. “I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and is as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.”
