Cutting government spending and freebies, even if they are illegal or going to illegals, will put a knife to the throat of the economy. Government spending accounts for much economic activity so cutting of the freeloaders may have dire consequences. Maybe they DOGE the economy into depression and what evolves is CBDCs or something else ethereal.

Bureaucrats spending time doing nothing all day making $75-100K have no skills other than being lazy and thievery. They will go far in the homeless communities.

I agree that the round up and deportation process will not be easy, quick or inexpensive. I think it must be done, just in case there is a future for the US. Trump says all illegals will be deported. Even those here for years. I have no source, but I estimate that close to 10 percent of the population is made up by illegals. Many will self deport as the government goodies dry up.

Down the road, another lengthy process, how much money will be recovered that hasn't been spent? How much will be recovered that has been spent (little, I think)? How much is missing (much likely stolen)? There is probably enough money missing to cover the national debt of 36+trillion. Unbelievable. Will Musk and his DOGE geeks actually recover enough to make a $5000 payment to taxpayers? Shouldn't that money be put on the debt?

Is anything happening in the Swamp via MAGA real or is it another bread and circus show?
