Oh wait, the “Department of Grift Everyone” is doing exactly that?

Fitting that DOGE went to war with the people working at the Insititute of Peace.

I swear this guy really thinks he's going to go down in history as the next Ghandi or something, his mind must be on a whole different level of dipshit.

Well, gifting oneself a 500 million dollar building for free certainly is efficient

The judges need to get their act together. We all see the playbook, they all see the playbook. If the judicial branch wants to have any value in six months, it needs to issue Temporary Restraining Orders and lock up people who ignore them, and it needs to do this on the scale of days or weeks, not months.

Otherwise it's the same bullshit outcome. The judges rule in favor of the fired employees but it's too late to undo everything. As we always expected. Jesus fuck, sigh. What a legacy to leave behind.
