This woman also said, “You violated the law, you are not entitled to due process," because she apparently doesn’t know what due process is.
If I never came to this dark corner of the leftist space and checked everyday for updates, I’d never know this stuff occurred. Sucks that it just kind of floats here for a minute before disappearing in the ether
You can get your yt algorithm to show you this kinda stuff. Subscribe to meidas touch, the bulwark, now this is impact and sam sedar. Theres several others but those jump to mind the algo ahould fill in the rest. Hell even aoc has her own channel. These guys are doing what the media should be doing.
The Media is worried about getting slapped with an “Anti-DEI” executive order if they mention anything Non-Trump
Here in Finland, Kristillisdemokraatit also has dude who thinks that DOGE is good and we should get something alike to oversee our government efficiency.
The idea itself is not the bad thing. It’s the people carrying it out and what they’re doing about it that’s bad. It just doesn’t affect the people who should be affected because they are the ones who are doing it.
In Germany, for example, we should also be downsizing, but instead we are adding more and more pointless authorities etc. that are paid for doing nothing…
So I definitely don’t want to defend America’s approach. Because it hits the wrong people. But the basic idea itself is not the real problem. It’s just a shame that Europe is also turning to the right and would directly abuse such a system to strengthen its own power.
It sounds really bad to me. The implication behind efficiency is that if it’s inefficient then it can be stopped. It’s a question of control / funding. (Auditing for efficiency is already a thing in societies, DOGE is not that.)
It’s like a government within a government. A super institution that sits above the others and decides budgets and policy.
This super institution would need expertise in all things related to self governance. When this super institution audits education how will it know what is efficient unless it has that domain specific knowledge? And then economics, and then engineering, and then social planning, and so on.
I think governmental efficiency stems from a society that values efficiency. Creating a super institution to rule them all is something else.
I mean in terms of government in a sane world efficiency wouldn’t mean cutting things just because they don’t turn a profit but instead just means trying to improve the efficiency with which the government handles citizens issues
I don’t even deny the negative aspects, which is why I directly emphasized that the whole thing would be directly abused. In other words, that something like this should not be allowed. I’m really only talking about the basic idea and if the whole thing were really to be used against corrupt politicians etc. The thing about the super institution etc. and this extreme fool’s freedom is of course wrong. As I said, I also think the way the whole thing is implemented is wrong.
It’s not that it hits the the wrong person, but that it is being applied blindly without regard to whether it hits the wrong people, on the assumption that there is waste without even looking for it and worst of all on the assumption that agencies implementing policy they have a personal disagreement with are all “waste, fraud and abuse”. And to top it all off, most of these firings are illegal through executive overreach, union busting, lack of any sort of due process or human respect, and implemented through a national security breach violating government privacy and security policies.
We can not vote these people out soon enough
They also booed her response to the Signal blunder as she said she would not call for resignations, among other things.

With a the yelling and her accent, I’m not sure that I comprehended any of her answers. It’s quite clear that most in the room didn’t like them.
Are they going to say that somehow the liberals crowded the place so there was no one there to back her up?
Some are doing republican only town halls ಠ_ಠ

To which I’d say, in that case the
conservativesfascists were too unmotivated to counter them.
To any narcissistic politicians reading this: Your town hall will be different. You’re smarter and a better speaker than the others. It’ll be fine!
The avalanche of incidents seemingly started after President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January.
Are you fucking serious, Newsweek? “Seemingly”??! You’re not even going to stretch your neck out to identify the most obvious fucking element in the entire story.
Christ these corporate news sewers are pathetic.
Please somebody tell me I’m not the only one who thought she had a large red horn
That’s cool n shit, but they shouldn’t be able to walk the streets.
Nothing is more disgusting than watching people carry water for trump.
This, the whole media is complacent by calling Democrats a “Party struggling to be relevant”, and claiming Trump is “So popular!”
When these town halls prove the exact opposite
How can anyone say the word “DOGE” and not feel like a complete tool? I swear, Elon was that guy that was still saying “NOT!” well into the 90’s.
Could not have happened to a dumber bitch.
Why is she wearing a cone? Wait nevermind.
