DOGE is setting up X accounts to accept messages of fraud in various Government agencies. Saw a HUD one and IRS one earlier and now this one

“The government is going to give out 350 billion dollars for people to pay their bills!” See embed below.

EV incentives.
Solar incentives
Wind incentives
Cash for Clunkers (Elon can go back that far)
Medicare/Caid
Political Slush/Hush Fund
Flights for African/Asian 20yo male 'asylum seekers'



Also.....that Ask Lesko guy from 20 years ago that said you could start your own bookstore or coffee shop with federal loans and grants. He was trashy.

If he only knew there was 4.7 trillion out there just walking around without a home.

Get it out of regular pump gas and change the laws that require smaller motors for “better gas mileage”. Let’s get back to the strong V8s in trucks and get rid of the turbos and superchargers.

Sell the ethanol for those who want racing fuel because it increases horsepower.

Can we get rid of DEF and regen systems in new tractors please? It’s expensive, and they don’t have power worth a shite.

I want to go back to raw diesel power like this

DEF has already become a huge industry. Lobbyists will not allow it to die but getting rid of DEF would bring down the cost of consumer goods a ton.

Why do we need 3 grades of unleaded, why do we need a winter and summer blend?

Why do I need DEF in my diesel.

Made the mistake of buying a diesel Range Rover. Love the ride, but not only do I have to use DEF, but I have to use their special DEF or else the sensor detects the difference and I have to go pay the dealership to drain it and refill it.

100% Stout. We use more energy to distill ethanol than we get back from it. A total scam. It is just one shining example of kickbacks perpetrated on us in the name of renewable energy.

This times 100! Also would be nice if they brought back real off road diesel. In 2014 the epa made offroad diesel the same sulfur content as regular diesel. Instead of a cheaper alternative for heavy equipment it's now just regular diesel dyed red for no damn reason.

I've had to learn how to defeat all the regeneration bullshite and def systems on our heavy equipment. It's way more than just the cost of def...it's the entire reliability of the machine and serviceable lifespan.

It was bad enough when they did it to cars and trucks. Doing it to heavy equipment is a major factor in running up costs.
