Nobody thinks doge is a law enforcement agency. Their job is to find it and turn it over to authorities who will then go after these people. Specifically coming from doge findings, they've found absolutley nothing to date..
OK, so on average, how long do you think it takes for evidence of fraud to be collected, the case researched/prepared and arrest warrant to be issued?
And lets keep in mind that finding the fraud is not the same as documenting the level of detail required to press charges against individuals.
So just spitballing, how long should that process take? Because I know of instances of people getting prosecuted for fraud and money laundering and it took years to build the case before charges were pressed.

They are still there. They are trying to become even more entrenched and permeant. The problem is they didn't find what they thought they'd find as far as waste.
The real problem is Congress and has been for awhile.

I don't think that's fair but he does operate in a way where he fails until he succeeds. He is constantly making mistakes and correcting course, like a software developer hammering out code. The thing with Elon is that you have to determine if his north star on the topic aligns with yours. If it does he will eventually get the results you want.
Nah, he just blatantly lies. Not sure of the statue of limitations, but a soros winning DA in 2027 might toss him in jail. He's lied considerably more than the Nikola CEO.

I think the same thing every resonable person thinks, in the first 120 days they would've presented something that's actually fraud.
Everybody else has stopped making so many excuses for them (which is another reason why they've gone quiet). It's not clear why you're still carrying so much water for them despite absolutley pitiful results (and an overall increase in spending to boot).
But if you wanna keep telling yourself you're getting free beer tomorrow, be my guest.

That is a very accurate observation.

And then We the People don't hold Congress accountable.
Then, we show Congress how upset we are, but reelecting them.
And around and around we go.
...at this point, I truly believe that only the naive actually think that things will ever change. The establishment has spent 70 years building this system, and it's now just the way things are. Get used to it, and prepare for collapse. Istanbul was once the capitol of the Byzantine, Roman and Ottoman empires. Everything falls eventually.

Elon was distracted by DOGE. Now he is back to managing his companies. He doesn't care about DOGE anymore. He's a businessman trying to drum up business. Like he was just in the Middle East drumming up business wasn't he?

Because a lot of government employees that work from home are not busy enough with their government job that they occupy their government time with hobbies or other jobs.
Again, their superiors are at fault here. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is lazy and never addresses any actual problems. In fact, more problems are being created every day by these tactics.

They have, multiple times. You seem to be stuck on social security data that was released that were never claimed by DOGE to be fraud.
Go look around. Plenty of contracts with fake companies they have posted.

Yeah, because the tech guru worth half a trillion $$$ needs to get kickbacks from the US government to keep his plane gassed up.

They aren't even doing that. They are proclaiming that fraud and abuse exists, but they haven't shown evidence of anything.
Name one person found by Doge to have defrauded the US government in any specific way.

Sauces please.
Again, actual fraud (breaking the law) is what we're looking for.

Imagine if the left had been this vigilant about verifying that the 2020 election truly was "the most secure in our nation's history" instead of taking some career bureaucratic flunky for his word... or holding out for actual scientific proof that the injectable bioweapon was actually as safe and effective as the marketing blitz double-pinky swore that it was.

Money legally appropriated by Congress and spent within the parameters of Congressional and Executive fiat is fraud? How?

What are the examples of fraud?
Not legally appropriated waste you disagree with. That's not fraud.
Not some huge appropriation with "trust me bro" implications, either. That theoretically could be fraud but you have no evidence to support the allegation.
And don't rely on "common sense", please, to fill in the gaps.

You think? Because shite started changing real quick after Elon had his public falling out with Rubio and Donald had to make a public statement. After that it was Donald who said things were going to change, and things changed.
