If you believe the allegations from DOGE, you assume that the government have suddenly had a massive honest streak, while also holding the belief that the entire government is corrupt. That is a contradiction.
Any sudden airing of wrongdoing is either a distraction from something far worse or freeing up corrupt money that was going to someone elses buddies to go to your buddies instead.

I think there is a misconception. The DOGE has a legal authority to subpoena any civil agent that withholds spending requests. They didn't become honest, They are threatening Peggy in accounting with a lawsuit for non-compliance. I think Elon is autistic enough to do this kind of thing for efficiency. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They aren't allegations. They are literally publishing the receipts
As slowly as I can.
They just created a government agency with ultimate power over all other government agencies to root out corruption, with 0 elected officials and no oversight.
They made a few token sacrifices to the public of people who were already no longer politically expedient for their plans, so you are cheering them on.
I'm saying a government agency with ultimate power over all other government agencies to root out corruption, with 0 elected officials and no oversight has always been a key step in the process of turning a democracy into a dictatorship.
Not alarming at all from a guy who said at a campaign rally "Just vote for me one more time and you'll never have to vote again"
I'm not supporting any of the crimes that have been called out. I'm saying you still don't hate the government enough.
