New Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)

[freeloader]

Last night, they passed the CR bill, which included around $100 billion in new spending. This was passed under suspension of the rules, requiring a two-thirds vote to pass the House.

A few items were cut from the original bill, including:

• $3 billion for building a new football stadium in D.C.
  
• Pay raises for Congress
  

I would have liked to see them also cut the $12 billion allocated for new submarines, which we don’t need.

We’ll take this as a win, considering DOGE blocked the first bill and secured some small cuts. It’s going to be a long battle against the establishment to achieve any significant spending reductions.

I thought the win was cutting trillions of dollars from Social Security and Medicare?
