Yep. Massie wanted the DOGE cuts and others in the BBB, and the MAGA dipshits cried for weeks.

Well Rog the reason why I criticized Massey for voting against it is because he does things for show. I also knew Republicans in Congress would never vote for real cuts but I absolutely believe Trump would agree to real cuts, that’s the difference. You keep believing Trump is the problem but Trump didn’t flood the nation with millions, Republicans did. Trump initiated DOGE to find waste, Republicans rejected them and yet you continue to blame Trump for issues Republicans created.

According to your influencers.

But when Massie did exactly what you people pretend you want Congress to d o, you vilified him.

Do you know why? Because your Orange leader loves debt. You people have been effectively gaslight by the trojan horse.

I believe the Abolish USAID Act was introduced in early 2025. Fricking crickets from Trump/Johnson.


Hey HEY!! The NPCs were supposed to have forgotten ALL ABOUT the alleged USAID demolition and assumption Congress took care of business. But NOPE. (Where are the Praetorian Cultists demanding action?! What a bunch of phonies.)

All we ever see is more legislative and policy sleight of hand magic tricks. The GOP and Trump will never do anything substantial with respect to justice and cleaning out the rat infestation.

Who is the leader of the Republican party?

Who has the majority of Congress?

What youre seeing is an abject failure in leadership, and youre blaming the wrong people.

Our orange leader loves debt? So the trillions in debt created well before Trump is the fault of Trump? This is why you are an emotional clown. Name another president who has shown any willingness to cut anything and actually enforce immigration. You can’t yet clown around as if there are dozens

Massie is doing the work Trump and Johnson's puppet-GOP regime wont do.

These MAGA cultists are nothing phonies, hypocrites and Gatekeepers for maintaining the status quo. How do they keep on justifying and defending anti-America, Dem-lite policies?

It’s hilarious to watch him ramble. Roger is a bit delusional and unfair but funny.

No the 8 trillion he pushed on you is the fault of Trump.


As well as everything in that Covid Relief bill he signed that allowed election shenanigans and people to quit work.

Yep. Massie is one of the few fiscal conservatives left, and MAGA hates him for it.

If he can pass a bill in 72 hours he has failed when he hasn’t fixed this during his time he’s been in office. If you’re going to have standards hold everyone to the same standard you expect.

Lmao…we tried to tell you that DOGE doesn’t have the authority to eliminate funding.


DOGE always reeked of an unauthorized operation.

Elon and DOGE's stated mission of locating and eliminated bureaucratic waste and exposing USAID, dissolving for corruption was a lie from the beginning.

It was about using AI to Data mine and harvest EVERYONE and EVERYTHING.

They'll never admit any of it. The check is always in the mail with this guy.

Trump is above all else is a Salesman. He's Mr Haney on steroids. (On just whose behalf he peddles policies and agendas is the question and another story)

As someone else mentioned, USAID was abolished as a standalone agency with some aid redirected to the State Department. From what I understand, the existing aid was vetted by Rubio as actual humanitarian aid. Whether or not you trust Rubio, that’s up to you.

But I’d like to know where this guy is getting the $41 billion figure? Is that simply the existing aid that Rubio consolidated into the State Department? As much as we need to be skeptical about the government, we need to be skeptical of unverified claims on the internet.

They've forgotten all that. The feral reserve was told to print up "free" money to millions that flooded the zone. With little oversight.

How many people got conditioned into being idle, not working forever? And it was all unnecessary. (And some say, planned)

People and small businesses have never recovered from what was "The Reset". Trump's 2020 absurd unnecessary, panicky policies was a big reason 2025 has evolved (predictably) into a runaway economic and employment trainwreck.

Trump wanted more money given out as welfare than Democrats.

What would happen if all Americans decided tomorrow to stop using dollars as currency? Would the government send all of us “aid” like they do these other countries as a bribe to use these dollars in an effort to keep the dollar as the global reserve currency? I mean, America First and all...

ETA: Obviously this will never happen. Just tossing out a hypothetical to ponder.
