If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

DOGE personnel should have their accessibility to systems and buildings lifted and to have their passports seized. Ankle monitors would be a good idea as well.
