    That’s interesting, because this is another clear case of total fabrication. I will skip the $135bn figure, produced by an influence NGO and once again counting paid leave, to focu…

    DOGE was met with worldwide media outrage in the first weeks of its creation, and scorched earth legal tactics by the opposition. The people involved, even the lowest employees, go…
