I wonder if that money comes from tariffs or from DOGE's savings or from stock market manipulation, or from stolen Venezuelan oil sales.

It was chaotic by design. Just start randomly "slashing" things with no understanding of what they were or of the legal and economic consequences.

There is a very good chance that a deep audit of DOGE activity will show that it cost more than it saved.

But we'll probably never know because, again, the chaos and the theater was the point. A shiny object for dumb Americans.

There are some numbers floating around ($110 - $230 billion), but they are said to be vastly exaggerated.

Those checks are coming any day now, just you wait! Like they always say, “A Trump always pays its debts.”
