It's far from perfect but gov agencies aren't measured by "profit" but mission. The "savings" equate to basically looting change in the couch, turning the heat to 65, the AC to 80, and showering weekly.

Another thing to know is that there are parallel systems that seem to be similar in agencies due to vendor lock-ins, congressional earmarks, and compatibility with other systems. So 4 LMSs might be due to one works with HR, one supports video content, one is internal, and one is for contractors.

I've not been looking closely but saw that the "waste" in some agencies includes software licenses which were "unused". Given that I am old, I remember when the US Government was the #1 pirate of PKZip, learning that an extra license is better than a lawsuit.

I'm sure that RFK Jr would say that Ebola has just as much a right to exist as a 5 year old child.

10 million dollars

10 million dollars

The Elon Musk backed pro-Russian candidate in Romania, Calin Georgescu has been arrested. Authorities raided him like the crook he is and found at least $10 million in cash and tickets to Moscow. He may have also bumped his head a little bit too.

Buckle in people. The next four years will be very hard. Buy non-perishable food and plant a garden. Get ready to both be jobless and help the jobless.

Spicy take: I hope they do EVERYTHING in Project 2025. I hope it radicalizes the generation who will take over and depose these tyrants with the weapons they have forged. The next 4 years are going to be HARD, be ready.

I've seen a child with tetanus, I've treated near fatal infections after chicken pox, and I've pronounced children dead from COVID whose parents refused to have them vaccinated.

We have lost our minds... and are about to lose so many of our precious children.

Me: Dr. Salk your vaccine will save so many children!

Salk: Well thank God

Me: Of course they will grow up

Salk: Well I hope so

Me: And get old

Salk: I guess?

Me: And eventually vote for lunatics who will try to stop your vaccine

Salk: what now

Me: And leave NATO

Salk: shit

well, all my loyal followers need to know that I passed my SANS GREM certification. My brain is mush, my body is weak, but I persevered and have recertified for the third time.

So I'm not 100% politics (sorry, not sorry) I'm working on recertificifying my SANS GREM cert and am knee deep in relearning assembly. As someone with an Art degree this is A LOT.

I didn't see this... I'm horrified. VOA was a bastion of spreading democracy and liberty throughout the world. It was our voice to the world, as US citizens. Now it's fox news international. Like when Trump bragged to the UN about beating HRC in the election. ๐Ÿคฎ

This is exactly what we need when Trump has RFK as the head of the HHS director. I for one welcome our new scary virus overlords.

Ford pardoned Nixon. GHWB pardoned the Iran-Contra crew. Clinton pardoned Marc Rich and his half brother. Trump pardoned Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, and Charles Fucking Kushner!

Joe Biden pardoning his own son doesn't come close to any of those truly controversial pardons. Get a grip.

One year later and I've got a more than 75% failure rate on the lights I only bought last year. So awesome throwing stuff away.

I think a lot of the US will have questions about limiting executive power after 2025, of course it will be too late, but the right discussion to have at any point. "At least we cemented the checks and balances before the GOP elected the clone they made from Hitler, Mussolini, and Franco."

Oh, just wait.. No one sounds like Trump, especially ice cream grandpa.

Democrats Weigh Dumping Jerrold Nadler for Jamie Raskin in House Judiciary Committee Some House Democrats want to oust aging committee leaders like Representative Jerrold Nadler in favor of younger lawmakers who they see as better suited to take on the president.

House Democrats are considering pushing aside some of their most senior leaders from top posts in the next Congress, driven by a worry that aging members are not up to the task of countering President-elect Trump and his loyal Republican allies in Congress.

"We Will Pass Those Tariff Costs Back To The Consumer," Says CEO Of AutoZone. Here's A Look At Other Companies Raising Prices - Columbia Sportswear (NASDAQ:COLM), AutoZone (NYSE:AZO)

We saw how big corporations that gobbled up competitors over the years had the power to pad profits under the cover of inflation.

Trump's tariffs will likely be the next shock they'll happily pass onto consumers.

The result? A massive transfer of wealth to corporate America.

It's the start of the holidays, traditions we have but like a game of telephone we're not sure why they are the way they are...turkey, stuffing, green bean casarole, or pumpkin spice macaroni. We just do it without question.

โ€œ70% the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting from meeting the drug demand in yours.โ€ - President Sheinbaum to Trump.

It's really put up or shut up time for democrats. Crying "no fair, you broke the rules" and doing nothing about it isnt why they're up there.
