A Conservative PM admired by Trump won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Can you figure out one of the reasons why he did?

Elon Musk’s team of young DOGE disruptors have been unmasked, much to the ire of the billionaire and other MAGA figures.

One is a 19-year-old college freshman and heir to a popcorn fortune. Another was hosting Model UN sessions in 2019 and a third was given money by his parents to invest in stocks while at his high school in Silicon Valley.

The world’s richest man lashed out at an X account which suggested the six young men, who now have access the Treasury Department’s payment system, among other things, should be “paid a visit” by FBI agents.

“You have committed a crime,” Musk fired back at a comment from the account Monday, shortly before the post in question was removed for allegedly violating the platform’s rules.

Musk appeared to soften his stance on the men being identified later Monday, writing it was “time to confess” that the “media reports saying that @DOGE has some of world’s best software engineers are in fact true.” But he was wrong—not all the group are even “software engineers.” Three do not even have degrees. And one who does is trying to cash in on his new job by charging people to read his Substack entry which boasts, “Why DOGE: Why I gave up a seven-figure salary to save America.”

Musk’s team of youngsters, as first reported by WIRED on Sunday, is Akash Bobba, 21, a student at the University of California, Berkeley; Edward Coristine, 19, a student at Northeastern University in Boston; and Ethan Shaotran, 22, who said in September he was a senior at Harvard.

The ones who actually have degrees, or at least have left college, are: Luke Farritor, 23, who attended the University of Nebraska without graduating; Gautier Cole Killian, a 24-year-old who attended McGill University; and Gavin Kliger, a 25-year-old who attended Berkeley;
>>
The group’s relative lack of experience—especially no previous positions in government work—has Democrats crying foul they were granted access to sensitive records while remaining largely in the shadows, away from public scrutiny.

All six desperately tried to cover their digital tracks recently, almost all of them deleting LinkedIn profiles, X accounts and even Facebook.

Gavin Kliger’s LinkedIn lists his employer as the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, where he is a “Special Advisor to the Director.” His old jobs include a brief stint as an engineer at Twitter in 2019 and, most recently, as a senior software engineer at Databricks, a cloud software company, for five years—which, he claims, gave him a seven-figure salary.

Kliger is already making a name for himself in his new role. He was named Monday by The New York Times as the person who blasted out a staff-wide email to USAID workers that ordered them to work from home as the agency is scrutinized by DOGE and the Trump Administration—a correspondence that underscores just how much power Musk’s team of young engineers may hold.

But what Kliger really wants the world to know about is his belief in male MAGA warriors Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth’s brilliance, using his Substack to post about them both. Gaetz, who was investigated over allegations of teenage sex trafficking, was, according to Kliger, a victim of “the deep state.” Hegseth, a serially unfaithful former Fox News star accused of sexual assault, drunkenness, and receiving lap dances while in uniform, was, he wrote “the warrior Washington doesn’t want but desperately need.”

Kliger, whose Cornell graduate father is an attorney for Experian, appears happy to monetize his DOGE experience: he has made the entry about DOGE on his Substack for $12-a-month subscribers only.
>>
Shaotran penned an essay for Business Insider last summer where he detailed how he “balances his startup with full-time studies.” He is the founder of Energize AI, a scheduling assistant for professionals that was awarded a $100,000 grant from OpenAI in 2023.

He said last year that he was a senior at Harvard University. Prior to that, he graduated in 2020 from Gunn High School in Palo Alto, California.

An online profile says he was “working on autonomous vehicles” in Harvard University’s Edge Computing Lab—perhaps where he caught the eye of Musk, who is obsessed with developing self-driving vehicles at Tesla.
The Dropout Who Reads Roman Scrolls

Farritor, meanwhile, was a co-winner of a $700,000 prize last year after he used AI to partially decipher a 2,000-year-old charred papyrus scroll from Pompeii—part of the Vesuvius scrolls—that had stumped scientists for centuries.

Farritor interned for Musk’s SpaceX prior to winning the challenge. He told The Free Press he dropped out of college to begin working for the Silicon Valley entrepreneur Nat Friedman, the former CEO of GitHub and Xamarin.

His dad, Shane Farritor, is a mechanical engineering professor who joined the University of Nebraska in 1998.
The Popcorn Heir Shaking Up D.C.

Coristine, the group’s lone teenager, has a résumé that includes a summer internship at Neuralink, Musk’s brain-computer interface company. Online sleuths unearthed that his father appears to be Charles Coristine—the businessman who purchased the once-failing snack company LesserEvil in 2011 and has turned it around to reportedly rake in over $100 million a year.
>>
WIRED reported that Coristine is listed in internal Office of Personnel Management records as being an “expert,” so the scope of his work within DOGE is particularly vague. Sources told the website that Coristine “has appeared on calls where workers were made to go over code they had written and justify their jobs.”
The Model UN Organizer

Another so-called OPM “expert,” according to WIRED, is Bobba. His since-deleted LinkedIn said he was an investment engineering intern at the Bridgewater Associates hedge fund, with previous internships at both Meta and Palantir, which was founded by the Republican mega-donor Peter Thiel.

A number of people sung Bobba’s praises online after he was identified as a DOGE staffer, including one X user who posted in his defense Monday that he is “one of the smartest dudes I’ve ever met.” But he has come a long ay in a short time: In 2019, he was organizing the local model United Nations near his home in Princeton Junction, New Jersey. His father is a computing science academic.

He graduated from West Windsor Plainsboro High School, a public school, in 2021. He spoke at commencement and submitted his remarks to be highlighted. Back then, he urged his classmates to “appreciate the complexity in life.”

“We live in an age where simplicity reigns supreme, where 30 second TikToks and 280-character tweets come to define our identities,” he said. “This increasing willingness to simplify even the most complex narratives into sensational tidbits, perpetuates misinformation and in the process divides the communities, families, and relationships we cherish. What’s the solution, you might ask? Seek discomfort.”
>>
They’re In D.C.’s C-Suite

WIRED reported, citing sources, that Bobba, Coristine, Farritor, and Shaotran “all currently have working GSA emails and A-suite level clearance at the General Services Administration, which means that they work out of the agency’s top floor and have access to all physical spaces and IT systems.”

Killian, meanwhile, has an email directly with DOGE and is a reportedly a “volunteer.”

The website reported he graduated high school in 2019 and more recently worked as an engineer at Jump Trading, which specializes in algorithmic and high-frequency financial trades.

The MAGA world has been up in arms about the engineers being identified, which some have equated to doxxing.

TPUSA’s Charlie Kirk was among those rushing to attack WIRED and defend the young engineers.

“Remember when Wired was focused on cutting-edge technology and how young college dropout founders could change the world?” he posted to X. “Not anymore. Now, they’re doxxing DOGE employees and whining that they are too “young” and ‘inexperienced’ to reform America’s government.America’s experienced expert class have led this country to ruin. Young geniuses with a startup mentality could save it.”

The U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr. threw his support behind Musk on the matter, writing to him Monday he would “pursue any and all legal action against anyone who impedes your work or threatens your people.”

There have been a flurry of threats against the young DOGE engineers online. Musk reshared a post on X that included screenshots of nasty Reddit comments that included one calling for the men to be shot.

DOGE has seemingly grown in power by the day. The department, created via an executive order on day one of Trump 2.0, was recently granted access to restricted parts of the General Services Administration buildings and access to IT systems which houses sensitive information like addresses, contact info, and even social security numbers
>>
Chuck Schumer is among the politicians on the left who have criticized DOGE, with his most recent remarks coming on Monday.

“Before our very eyes, an unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government,” he said, adding that DOGE gaining access to sensitive info is “like letting a tiger into the petting zoo and hoping for the best.”
>>
>>1381204
Shadow government seems like a really stupid thing to call this - shadow governments do not regularly post tweets (or is it xeets now?) about their activities. Plus the DOGE team has been directly created by an elected official (the President) who during his campaign mentioned plenty of times that he would be creating the DOGE to do exactly what it is doing now.
>>

>>
>>1381212
>shadow governments do not regularly post tweets (or is it xeets now?) about their activities
The thing is we have no idea what they're actually doing. We know they're heading into government facilities and demanding access to data. We know Musk is CLAIMING they're cleaning up government spending. But we have no idea what they're actually doing with that data. We have no idea about their decision making process or how they decide whats worth it to cut. They're using their own servers so there's no oversight or records of what they're doing.

And most notably, no one on DOGE was properly checked or confirmed. This is an organization making decisions for the entire government where not a single part of it was subject to any kind of oversight at any stage of its creation.
>>
>>1381227
I think the big issue is that a large hunk of the American public no longer trusts the normal oversight & approval process. The normal government bureaucracy has done an exceptionally poor job of convincing the public that things are running smoothly and there is not a lot of waste. That loss of trust in the bureaucracy is a good hunk of why Trump won; for better or worse they trust the DOGE team Trump assigned more than the normal system.
>>
>>1381204
How the fuck is this a shadow government? It's a gang of publicly known zoomers who are dismantling all the inefficient, needless boomershit in the federal government.

>>1381241
and we're about to fuck around and find out. I see literally no possibility where this doesn't end in someone stealing a millions or billions, either money directly or info worth the same amount. You cannot entrust this level of clearance to people with no confirmation or background checks.

I'm sorry, but is that any different from the normal operations of any of these departments?

You have literally no idea what any unelected bureaucrats decision making process is when they choose to do something, and 99.99% of the time you don't even know there is a decision being made.

This is just being widely talked about by the media.
>>
>>1381204
>>1381242
“shadow government”: when the extremely famous rocket and EV guy is openly put in charge of cutting waste and corruption.

not shadow government: when the president is a senile kid-sniffing pants-shitter and you have no idea who was actually running the country for the past 4 years.
>>
>>1381245
I'm sure that's exactly what you think, schizo. You also thought there were going to be concentration camps 8 years ago.
But I'm sure some random nobody will have their identity stolen at some point and make baseless accusations that it was one of these boomers, and you will slurp it down happily, anything to reinforce your beliefs of some grand conspiracy theory
>>
>>1381251
Normal bureaucrats usually have to be confirmed. They have background checks. Especially if they're getting anywhere near the level of sensitive data these goobers are.

I mean for fucks sake, Musk made an active effort to prevent people from even knowing their fucking names. I think we should have a bit of scrutiny for people who are literally walking into government buildings, defying all normal laws and protocol, and leaving with the personal information and social security numbers of anyone who has ever applied for a US federal job, don't you?
>>
>>1381254
>It's a grand conspiracy theory to think it's a bad idea to give random college grads unlimited access to the US treasury and the personal info of millions of people
>>
>>1381256
How do you know they weren’t given a background check? Just because they tried to keep their employees identities confidential doesn’t mean they weren’t vetted for the job like any other job.
>>
>>1381256
Again, there is little trust in the people running the background checks, or doing the confirmations. Just because an unelected bureaucrat says someone has a clean record doesn't mean it is true. People trust Trump & Elon to hire good auditors more than they trust the existing bureaucrats. That is the problem the existing bureaucracy is facing; they really need a way to get back that trust with the public.
>>
>>1381262
Considering Musk refuses to release any info on them or their credentials, and they're complete unknowns due to being fresh out of college (at most), i don't see any evidence of a background check. Even the white house admitted they don't know, and if THEY don't have any idea, then I'm going to assume it's because it wasn't even done in the first place.
>>
>libshits whining about background checks
Remember when you guys appointed and then defended a literal cross dressing troon who got all his women's clothing from stealing luggage at airports?

This is a black hole calling the kettle black. Shut up forever.
>>
>>1381267
With that logic I should be able to go the the FBI or CIA and demand to see who their undercover field agents are. There are good reasons why some people’s identities need to be concealed, especially since DOGE is trying to help uncover corruption. Naturally rooting out corruption might require someone to go undercover or unnoticed to find the evidence.

It's a shaow government because the people in question (and currently stripping it for parts) are unelected and unvetted. Its not about whether their identities are known or not, though its telling that Musk has tried to keep their identities hidden.
>>
>>1381281
Pointing out your obvious hypocrisy isn't name-calling. There's no reason for these zoomzoom wallet inspectors (who are all adults by the way) to have their identities hidden.

It's because of radicalized partisan shit bags like yourself and your pals
>>
>>1381287
They’re not looting the treasury, that’s retarded and I’d like to see proof of it. And their identities were kept confidential likely because lunatics like you would immediately attack them and try to undermine the work of DOGE, and because (as I said before) uncovering corruption sometimes requires someone to go under the radar to find the evidence.
>>
>>1381291
Your arguing with a literal retard. He sees rage bait on his blue sky feed and on his discord and he starts spouting baseless conspiracy theories.

haven't exposed shit, and 'saved billions' is something you have to see long term. If it turns out the "unnecessary" things they cut WERE needed and now we have extra issues due to it, they didn't save shit.

Any company or country can 'save billions' if they just stop spending anything. Doesn't mean it's a good idea.

This whole "Nobody elected elon musk!" angle from democrats is sooo bad, nobody elected the previous treasury clowns either or the 80.000 irs clowns or the alphabet soup frauds and in fact the doge has more legitimacy if you care about that.
One of they key pillars of trumps campaign was the creation of a department of goverment efficiency led by elon.
This is exactly what people voted for, not some kind of surprise twist! And nothing about doge is illegale so stop crying. The fact that you clowns actively are against a department of goverment efficiency is just because its trump doing it is beyond stupid.
But then again you are the people who pick bad over good everytime.
Elon musk is a billionaire who has been appointed by trump to clean out corrupt bureaucratic bloat. George soros is a billionaire who funds politicians whos policies routinely result in increased murder and poverty... and for some reason, "progressives" applaud the latter but are literally threatening to storm the white house over the former.

Ok, and Ben Carson is one of the best surgeons of our time. Trump gave him an official position and he spent four years doing literally fucking nothing and repeatedly trying to defund his own department, only for congress to tell him off because doing so would fuck everyone over.

I don't get this idea that being a genius in one field translates to being a genius in another. If the kid fucking hyperoptimized a company to make record profits at half the cost, maybe you had a point. But he didn't, he made a program to translate scrolls. Really cool and really good, but how does that translate over to the ability to decide which parts of a budget are expendable and which departments need to be cut?

Life isn't an RPG where there's an intelligence stat that determines everything. I can't put the worlds leading marine biologist in charge of military planning and expect him to be just as good there as he was in the field where he had all his accomplishments. People specialize in different things and those skills don't transfer over. Especially not here, where he's not even doing any programming like he was for his primary achievement.

Hey, dicktard. Educate yourself before posting stupid articles. You arrogant dumbfuck piece of human dog shit.

This post is absolutely false. I know because I've studied government in depth over numerous years. You are a lib of the worst kind...a stupid lib!

You don't even use your real name. Well goddammit I'm The Great Poot! More fucking hardcore than your granny's best boner. And I regard all of the people on 4chan as the fine, wonderful children I never had. And I enjoy watching them grow into outstanding, responsible, inventive human beings, planting seeds of achievement into the wind.

So I say unto you Mr. (Or Ms.) Hotshot, fuck you!

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck thee! Fuck brethren and sethren of ye democratic upper crust. You are not even worthy of being called crust you are just one of the crumbs. Aha!
You stink like a fucking pig! You got that, dinky doodles? PIG!

I thank you for your time.

Maybe wait to see how the dismantling of USAID affects things before rejoicing. You have to wait to see the effects of a budget cleaning before you celebrate.

Oh, and I'm sure its not a coincidence USAID was also investigating Musk's Ukraine Starlink program when he started coming down on them. Fancy that.

There are a lot of retards that work at the federal govermen basically doing nothing, everyone knows that fact and doge is basically there to weed them out because we are soo deep in the debt spiral that it just has to be done... empty "make work" jobs are a luxury we cant afford anymore at least not for a while.

given the millions they spent on foreign lgbt programs its fair to say they're either insanely incompetent or straight up embezelling funds and now mad someone's investigating.

I’m hearing that USAID was giving funding to Politico, Reuters, the BBC, others and now they’ve lost a good chunk of their operation costs and will have to layoff staff and make cuts or go bankrupt now. USAID was literally funding the leftist media apparatus against us so I’m glad it’s gone. USAID is also likely funding all sorts of leftist NGOs pushing unfettered mass immigration and gay sex, and I can’t wait to see these organizations to fall apart now that the money faucet has stopped.

I'm just a slight bit suspect if we weren't even supposed to know their names, nevermind their actual positions.
>>
>>1381378
So why do they need the social security info of everyone who ever applied to a federal job and unrestricted access to the US treasury if their job is just to look at programs and decide if they should be cut or not? Seems like you could accomplish that with publicly accessible knowledge on US grants.

There's also the fact cutting aide programs is going to absolutely gut our soft power and encourage every nation we're stopping aid to to side with China over us, but hey don't think about that too much.

Right, so you don’t know what’s going on and you’re this upset about it. Sounds like you’re just looking for excuses to be mad. You’re going to look really retarded if it turns out these guys are just data analysts or something and nothing they did was out of the ordinary.

I know we have unconfirmed and unsupervised college grads accessing the sensitive data of millions of americans and the us treasury without proper clearance or oversight. The first response when these goobers rolled up to get it was to block them from doing so because they had absolutely no legal clearance to do so, and then the people who did their jobs got fired because Musk decided the rules don't apply to his guys.

they look at ledgers and compile suspicious and wasteful government spending doesn't take a genius

to see how they they pocketted and to prevent them from altering or deleting data why do you think they locked out all the usaid employees from tampering with evidence.

Did you look at the aid programs that are getting cut they're just plain as day embezellment
>>
>>1381388
Oh please produce the list. I'm curious.
>>
>>1381387
What do you mean they were unconfirmed? Unconfirmed by who, Congress? Not every position in Trump’s executive departments needs to be confirmed by Congress. Can you imagine having congressional hearings for a front desk secretary at DOGE. And the president is the supreme authority over who gets security clearance, Elon Musk could have easily gotten these guys security clearances to handle sensitive data. It’s not unusual. Hell, we have contractors handling American’s private information all the time, and you think a basic security clearance is out of reach for these young men?
>>
>>1381392
What was the hiring process? Do they have proper background checks? What is their actual experience in the positions they're being entrusted.

Shit like this. These are a bunch of fresh out of college interns being handed a position with access to highly sensitive financial and personal data, and we know fucking nothing about them. Hell, we weren't even supposed to know their names.

hard to find specifics you'll have to find them one by one on the doge twitter.since outlets are all on the elon is hitler's general stance.
https://x.com/DOGE
so far 600million spent by the pentagon on sushi each year,
230k per month by air force on fcking keurig coffee pods 1280$ each.

Most of the usaid contracts have been asinine retarded stuff like 1million for a contract called “Gender X initiative marker"
45million for Burma DEI scholarship
there was one that was several millions to promote LGBTQ+ in Syria that got shut down it's actually insane how much utterly stupid amounts of money gets wasted.

If you google "Integrating LGBTQI+ Considerations in USAID's Resilience" and look at the usaid site it says it was shut down and the people were put on administrative leave starting tomorow lol
>>
>>1381394
Actual evidence of this? Any actual financial documents submitted to a court of law? I don't trust Musk's fuckass twitter account. I want actual, documented evidence of the things you're saying that aren't from someone who has every reason to make it the fuck up, that actually hold up in a courtroom when it comes to allegations of embezzlement.

In case you retards didn't know, you can't just hand the government and powers of the presidency over to whoever is also in your cabinet. The people elected YOU, not the guy you're working with, and the president does not have unrestricted power either. Musk's actions violate the separation of power and the constitution because he is a private citizen beholden to no due process or confirmation who is given power on par with, if not exceeding, congress itself.

White House Cuts Politico Funding Amid Conspiracy Claims
Last updated
8 minutes ago
Recent revelations indicate that Politico, a political journalism outlet, has been receiving significant funding from the U.S. government via USAID for subscriptions, totaling around $8 million.

aside from the fact that they advertised it on their site and doge now has a list of contract after contract that's being cancelled. Anon if you're too stupid to think 600million on sushi a year and 1280$ for a 10cent cup is normal pricing you should just go to reddit. No one's being charged with embezzlement yet its just obviously a clear sign when money is spent on items with insanely inflated cost.

Pentagon has around 27k employees. you're telling me its normal for the government to be spending 22k on average on sushi for each employee a year.

They just terminated 8million in spending to politico thank god fuck that site

Because I absolutely believe everything Musk posts.

See the problem with not having any oversight is, I have no guarantee you're actually telling the truth either. Every single one of these could be another "50 million condoms to gaza" thing that turns out to be a massive bit of bullshit. And before you point out "oh but we were sending condoms to places!", that was part of global efforts to prevent the spread of HIV. Something that, actually, is pretty fucking good to do.
>>
>>1381400
Last time I checked the vice president doesn't have power on par with the president himself, in addition to actually being on the ballot. And executive branch employees have higher ups who ARE confirmed and elected by congress. Not in this case, where we now randomly have an entire department wielding absolute power over our budget that is subject to nothing save Trump himself, even though not even Trump has the power of the purse.
>>
>>1381396
Donald Trump has used his executive authority to delegate a job he wants done in the executive branch to Elon Musk. That is not Elon Musk in control of the government as Trump has the authority to remove Elon from his position and cast him aside at any time. I am very satisfied with the job Elon is doing right now, and I am very satisfied with this presidency.

Yes, I’m certain they were hired fairly, had background checks, and graduated top of their class. You people are just making a big stink about this because you want to use every opportunity possible to cause friction and hinder this administration from doing what the people voted for.

"What is DOGE, exactly?
Trump didn't create a new Cabinet-level department with DOGE, but rather renamed the previously existing United States Digital Service, which was created under former President Barack Obama."
>>
>>1381407
The spending bills Congress have been passing for the last decade or so do not say how the funding MUST be used, instead they simply put money into an agency’s account which the receiving agency has the authority to spend however they need (makes it a lot easier to embezzle and commit fraud that way). Now that Trump is in charge of all the executive agencies and their accounts, he gets to direct those funds however he wants. So if he wants to sit on those funds and say fuck you, no money for that, then it’s his authority to do so. Thank Congress they played so fast and loose with the money, because now they can’t do anything about it.

Pretty sure he killed the US Digital Service which was a pretty shitty dept anyway and renamed it's dead husk.

It's true but with how much he's warped it from the original department, it's effectively a new one.

Actually, that's because they started stealing personal information and people get pissed when you have a bunch of zoomers stealing their social security numbers. And yes, stealing, because they had no legal right to access it.

Best you can do is find some activist judge (similar to trumps last term) to put a pause to it to slow everything down which then gets overturned later again.
Of course checking the payrolls of your own employees is not under the purview of the DoJ. judges playing politics during a trump presidency are risking their careers but yeah thats the best you can do a activist judge slowing shit down temporarily.

They’re not “stealing” any data. DOGE has been given the executive authority by the president himself to audit these cesspits, and they are now using that legal authority to go through all the treasury’s records for waste and wrongdoing. How else do you expect an audit to be done? And if the data they’re working with is classified or private then why do you expect them to show it to someone like like you in the first place?

First of all, their job isn't to audit. It's to advise. They're an advisory group. Secondly, they don't have legal authority. Trump didn't give them any clearance so much as he suspends anyone who gets in their way. They're effectively brute forcing their way through every safety barrier meant to ensure the info they're stealing does not wind up in bad hands.

I want to know why they need the info of every federal worker. I want to know why they need full access to the US treasury. I want to know why they refuse to even confirm their members have been background checked and they're downloading this to computers that've been properly secured, since they won't even do so to the agencies they're demanding the data from.
>>

>What makes you people think they aren't stealing any data

>Musk is another of those people who got exposed as being a piece of shit, so he pivoted to the right
The moment you people considered him "a piece of shit" was the moment he posted on Twitter his famous post with an image depicting him left of center, and then over time the American left running to the far left, shifting the overton window left and causing him to become center of right without changing any of his political views.

I personally realized he was fucking shithead when he accused a diver of being a pedophile because he got to a group of children trapped in a cave before Musk could make a fuckass robot to do it. Long before we knew any of his political opinions.

Coincidence that when people start proving themselves to be pieces of shit, they suddenly take a hard right pivot, right?
>>
>>1381528
I don't think it shifted to the left though, you're just imagining how I feel.

At the time when musk posted it, I do believe it shifted to the left. I also believe that pendulum effect occurred this year, and the right swung far to the right to counterbalance the left.

So no, I don't think it's shifted to the left, but you're happy to believe whatever helps you huff that Copium, crazy person

This whole phenomenon is simple psychology, actually, it's like empathy almost, people tend to imagine possibilities as if they were in the other person's position.
Conservatives see people hired to clean up government spending and they trust them because they think "hey, that's a worthwhile endeavor, if I was given that job I'd try very hard at doing the best I could"
Where's democrats see this happening and they think "hey, that's an easy way to rip off a bunch of people, of I had that sort of power nobody could stop me from embezzling every last dollar out of the US Treasury"

Here you go anon, a list of the political donations of SBF and Alameda Research.

https://www.opensecrets.org/donor-lookup/results?name=Sam+Bankman

Although it's mostly Democrats and Democratic organizations, there are also several donations to Republicans and Republican groups. And its not as if liberals tried to defend SBF when he was exposed, unlike Republicans who'll defend grifters while they empty their pockets.

Good. Veterans get too many benefits as is. They are already rewarded for their time in service with good pay and health care. That is fair. What is unfair is that those benefits persist after they leave. They should have to suffer on the health insurance and college loans the rest of us normies get. Not to mention that the Veterans Affairs is an absolute moneysink. Get rid of benefits and pensions for new recruits is a no-brainer. Maybe start off with giving them a lumpsum for rejecting benefits, than phase it out over time. As smart as Elon is though, he's a little clumsy sometimes, so he might try to stop the flood of vet gibes all at once, which will only give more ammo to the hysterical libs.

It's funny how when the government has to get cut, it's always the little guy, but when the big guy needs a bailout our subsidy, he gets oodles of tax money thrown at him. Never mind raising taxes on the rich. That would simply be unacceptable. Even just closing loopholes that allow them to offshore wealth and/or pay an overall lower percentage of their income is preposterous. But the rich get to suckle at the teat of government while crafting a predatory system on the other end to squeeze all of us.

I'm no communist. American capitalism is great for commodities. It's why we always get the newest tech at cheaper rates than anyone else.

The food is actually cheaper than what you'd find at a Euro market, but also way more unhealthy and worse tasting. They're screwing us.

>The average American who hires a tax preparer to file even a simple return will spend more than $200, according to industry estimates.

>This year, however, taxpayers have more options than ever to avoid that expense.

>Or maybe not. The most noteworthy new program for free tax-prep, IRS Direct File, came under fire this week from Elon Musk, who posted on X Monday that the service had been “deleted.” Democrats and Republicans in Congress are battling over its future.

>However, 18F, a digital consulting team that worked on Direct File within the General Services Administration (GSA), remains operational, according to its website. Instead, Musk may have been referring to the group's X account: The page has been taken down, according to multiple media reports.

-----------------------------

>Direct File is a new IRS program that allows millions of Americans with uncomplicated taxes to file returns at no cost.

>The IRS says 30 million taxpayers qualify to use the free service this year: pretty much anyone with a relatively straightforward return. The Direct File site will help you decide if you are eligible.

>“Above all, our goal is to improve the experience of tax filing itself and help taxpayers meet their obligations quickly and easily,” said Danny Werfel, the now-former IRS commissioner, in a statement.
WASHINGTON, DC - APRIL 05: People use IRS Direct File at the Internal Revenue Service Building on April 05, 2024 in Washington, DC.

>Direct File works on mobile phones, tablets and regular computers, guiding taxpayers through a step-by-step process for completing their returns. The program is designed to help you maximize your refund.

>Though Direct File sounds innocuous enough, the program has seeded controversy. Private tax preparation companies lobbied against it. Republican lawmakers have urged President Trump to kill the program, citing concerns over the IRS acting “as both tax collector and tax preparer.”

You can't be this stupid. There is no way the IRS direct file is in the taxpayer's best interest. I'd rather pay for H&R Block and have the safety of mind that I'll get every cent I am owed. Government shouldn't be in the business of filing your taxes to begin with. IRS shouldn't exist to begin with.
>>
>>1381659
The IRS are the ones who decide how much you owe in the first place, there's literally no reason to not just direct file with them for free instead of paying a middleman. That's how it works in first-world countries.
>>
>>1381657
>So how is this a benefit to us?
Cuase I get to see libtard tears. But you know, you should try to be less of a retard and learn how to file on your own. Or just get TurboTax or someshit. It's not that hard. Stop expecting the government to make things easy for you. That's retard logic.

I'd trust them more than the IRS to give me a return that's in my best interest. They're professionals at what they do, they will give you the best legal return/deductions with no worries of penalties etc. Most of the people posting here can file for free on TurboTax, freetaxusa, etc anyways. Furthermore, everyone has the ability to do their own taxes via for zero cost. The IRS, private companies and states have ZERO obligation to provide free assistance. So that is all above and beyond.

The real story isnt even that its that usaid was literally used to fund a entire paralle reality and pushed it not just on the US but tried to push it on the whole world.

Democrats via USAID bought off media,
pushed advertiserv boycotts on x and rumble as narrative control,
funded opposition groups in foreign lands to formet revolutions,
funded lawfare against the the trump administration etc
people focus on the stupid money laundering "hurr dance therapy for my guinea pig for 100.000k" stories but thats not even the real fucked up story.

A certain savings scheme in the Third Reich, so people could buy what Hitler ordered Ferdinand Porsche to design & manufacture for under 1000 Reichsmarks. Those who did paid several RM a week for stamps placed in a stamp book, but missing so much as one week's payment meant the whole thing was null & void: with no refunds.
Not one person got what those who had full stamp books paid for: a KdF-wagen. All those Reichsmarks kept by the state.
Who was the Fuhrer of that state which ripped off it's own people? Hitler. A dictator.
Another dictator 80 years later that rips off its own people: Trumptards.

Yeah, we know how this works. You take a tweet out of context and blow it out of proportion. Let’s see his tweet then.
>>
>>1381868
Don't care.
>>
>>1381870
Can't. Musk deleted his account to save face.

Though the fact this dude's statements were made on MUSK'S OWN SITE makes the lack of background check pretty fucking obvious. If he didn't even check out his account, what else could he have missed about the other hires?
>>
>>1381870
Not him but do you not think the fact that he already quit because of it might indicate his guilt?
>>
>>1381871
He cared enough to quit, so....
>>
>>1381874
I think a cost-benefit analysis was made and they decided it was easier to let one employee go than letting you people entangle DOGE in some cancel culture bs to prevent it from completing its audits
>>
>>1381876
Don't care. The work is continuing with or without this dude.
>>
>>1381885
Actually, they're now down to only 1 person who can access the treasury data.
>>
>>1381893
So is the work continuing or not? It sounds like it is. Wouldn't be surprised if doge just gets auth from the judge to replace the second person with one of their backups in the meantime
>>
>>1381885
>>1381894
>the work is continuing
There is no "work", it's five fratboys who have no idea what they're doing making shit up.
>>
>>1381895
>There is no "work"
Really? The mainstream media seems think otherwise. They've reported that these people are using ai to parse large volumes of records to identify trends and inefficiencies.

Have you considered writing in to mainstream news publications informing them that your headcanon is more factually accurate than their investigations?
>>
>>1381895
I don’t think the web of spending and kickbacks that we’re learning about from USAID is not “made up”
>>
>>1381898

Cool ancient meme grandpa

Who is "we're" and why do you think being gullible and believing random tweets is "learning"?

You can bury your head in the sand all you want, boomer. Nobody cares about your misinformation you're spreading. I really don't care. You people are mentally unwell and the only person your tricking is yourself
>>
>>1381900
Well like >>1381898 says. Literally no one in the media or authority is denying these programs exist. Why should I listen to you saying they’re not?
>>
>>1381898
>They've reported that these people are using ai to parse large volumes of records to identify trends and inefficiencies.
Source on this? Trusting an AI to determine government funding sounds like a terrible idea.
>>
>>1381902
When your idea of "the media" is from the 1970s, no one takes you seriously.

Alright, show me a story from your hugbox that proves me wrong. I’m always open to hearing from other sources.

Was that published in the 1970s or are you just insane?

Faggot.

You can find 5 stories exactly like that on /pol/ right now. Go back there.

Wow. Way to say "I don't have an argument"

What's it like being in your shoes right now? You just keep acting like a salty defeated poor little man with more than a hint of crazy.
It's very unbecoming

Why don't I just post a tweet since you easily-deceived morons think that's a valid news source.

Who complained about mainstream media? Are you talking about the post that said your claims are contrary to mainstream media? Is that the post that caused you to *histrionically screech" about mainstream media?

Sure, post anything that proves USAID is not handing out kickbacks and wasting a shit-ton of money, because it is. Just don’t assert it without any kind of evidence.
>>
>>1381946
...you know they have to prove it WAS giving kickbacks, right? You can't declare someone committed a crime because they aren't giving you evidence they didn't.

I'm accusing you of having been the real mastermind of Trump's assassination attempt over the summer. Post anything that proves you weren't giving that guy directions.
>>
>>1381954
>Millions of dollars going to Politico
>Politico only ever writes nice things sucking the Biden administration’s dick
Sounds like a kickback for favorable news coverage, and taxpayer money (my money) should not be funding it. Clearly unethical.
>>
>>1381957
>>Politico only ever writes nice things sucking the Biden administration’s dick
where do you people get this shit from?
>>
>>1381957
Politico literally was given a damaging leak from Trump's campaign and refused to post it lol.
>>
>>1381959
You gonna show me that or are you just making it up? If that’s true still doesn’t mean Politico wasn’t in the bag for Democrats as all this funding shows. It’s more likely there was legal liability for posting whatever it was they got and they didn’t want to get sued.
>>
>>1381962
Not him but the fact that you don't remember what happened last July says more about you than it does about politico
https://www.politico.com/news/2024/08/10/trump-campaign-hack-00173503
>On July 22, POLITICO began receiving emails from an anonymous account. Over the course of the past few weeks, the person — who used an AOL email account and identified themselves only as “Robert” — relayed what appeared to be internal communications from a senior Trump campaign official. A research dossier the campaign had apparently done on Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, which was dated Feb. 23, was included in the documents. The documents are authentic, according to two people familiar with them and granted anonymity to describe internal communications. One of the people described the dossier as a preliminary version of Vance’s vetting file.
>>
>>1381251
It actually is.

The Treasury isn't some opaque monstrosity. Prior to the Trump admin altering sites or outright taking them down, the Treasury actually posted some information on what they do. For stuff not immediately publically available, any Tom, Dick, or Harry could file a FOIA and find out.

No, you won't be able to find out specifics on CIA black site funding, but there is loads of juicy stuff that isn't secret.

Source: I'm a USFS employee who has the joy of responding to FOIAs. Sometimes they are from legit orgs, like SELC wanting to make sure we aren't terracing mountains again (yep, the FS used to do that). Sometimes they are from Cletus and Jim-Bob who are convinced that the rabies vaccines their state wildlife department air drops to keep rabies from, you know, fucking killing people again in one of the most horrible and insidious ways possible, is actually the USFS dropping poison pellets to kill all of the deer so that real mountain men starve and move away and then the USFS can claim the mineral rights (which they don't actually have; I checked) under their property...for reasons?

I shit you not, I had to respond to that this year. Can I sue someone for lost brain cells?

It was that poorly written and insane.
>>
>>1381963
Oh yeah that story, so what? Like I said, not publishing the hacked information is not a show of support for Trump, but a decision to not risk getting sued in court.
>>
>>1381969
Not just hacked information, but anon is upset that politico wasn't distributing material stolen by Iran. The material didn't even harm trump, it wasn't newsworthy, but anon thinks that because they didn't publish information hacked by Iran from trump, that they are a partisan organization.

He's an idiot, anon. Call him one and move on with your day
>>
>>1381972
>Politico are partisan hacks who were paid to prop up the Biden/Kamala campaign!
>but they also didn't want to post damaging leaks that could hurt Trump and help Biden/Kamala!
Looks like cognitive dissonance to me
>>
>>1381973
I neither think nor claimed either of those.
I think politico is rather politically neutral
But feel free to imagine me however is convenient for you
>>
>>1381969
It's funny how the GOP narrative has changed from it being fake to it being unimportant minor data.
>>
>>1381976
They're still mad about the Hunter laptop story turning into a nothingburger.
>>
>>1381973
Clearly if you were put in charge of Politico you would run it into the ground. Any news organization worth a damn will have lawyers reviewing their liability for publishing hacked information. Because if they accidentally post state secrets, then the US government will come down on their ass.
>>
>>1381979
JD Vance's vetting file is not "state secrets" lol
>>
>>1381980
Trump's russia dossier is though

There’s an old joke: an American spy and a Soviet spy are sitting at a bar. The American says, “I really admire your propaganda outlets—it's incredible, and really puts forth your government’s message.” The Soviet replies, “Ours is good, but only one is better: your’s.” The American spits out his drink, “What!? We don’t have propaganda in America!”

That's a positive. We need less people who have been brainwashed by the leftist academia. Fire all those knownothingknowitalls with a bachelors and up. Get real people in there. People who are like you and me. This admin has been everything I've wanted to see so far. From opening up camps in el Salvador for the enemy within to hiring /ourguys/ from /pol/.

even Brazil already has a government maintained application for easy tax report filing, which comes pre filled with info reported by your banks and property holders, available on mobile and pc, and that exists for many years, also it's a completely free app development by the federal gov. The us government is very outdated tech wise
