Melanie D’Arrigo @darrigomelanie.bsky.social · 14/12/2024A quick way for DOGE to cut over $1.3 Trillion in spending: Gun safety laws save $557 billion. Universal healthcare with Medicare for All saves $650 billion. Ending fossil fuel subsidies save $20 billion. Cutting contractor profit from the military budget saves over $80 billion. Start there. 33783255
Dawn @dawnddurante.bsky.social · 17/12/2024You are making too much sense. They can’t handle that. 020
TJones (Formerly FightFor46) moving 🦋 @thundxrcloud.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Fossil Fuel Subsidies 😞 Here… let us give you billions of dollars while you make billions more and destroy the planet! 🫠 050
Friedo @friedo90423867.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Then give all the land back to the Indians and send all the immigrants who call themselves Americans back to the lands of their great-grandparents. Problem solved! Irony off. 021
Friedo @friedo90423867.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Dissolve the entire Congress and the Senate and send all politicians to the unemployment office, better yet, disband the entire government, that will save 10 trillion dollars. 010
notsmirkingnick.bsky.social @notsmirkingnick.bsky.social · 27/12/2024Strange how no-one has yet asked you to cite the source(s) of those figures in order to make an assessment of their veracity. It's almost as if Bluesky is the place leftists go to avoid challenge. 000
wbrind.bsky.social @wbrind.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Make orange dictator pay for his own golf games. Sick of my tax $$ making him money. 021
Bathsheba in Blue @bathshebablue.bsky.social · 16/12/2024M4A would not save money. Cmon. The idea that we can cut $2T from the budget period is nonsense, so I’m not sure why you’re giving Elmo an assist on that lie. 000
HammHawk @hammhawk.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Something tells me that’s not where they’re gonna start. They’d rather cut the stuff that makes people’s lives better… 021
Nathan @nathantyson.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Some may label that Progressive but I label it Common Sense & for the people. 000
Jason Tiedje @peaceendspoverty.bsky.social · 16/12/2024The Department of Defense has failed every audit all other departments passed the Pentagon appears to have ,at a minimum, lost the entire SUPPLY OF MONEY. EVERY dollar cent. Ruble pound euro ryki yuan yen circulating. And it's unconstitutional (see NDAA) 000
Califlower 😎💙 @califlower1.bsky.social · 14/12/2024This list is too rational and sane for it to be put in place. Wish it wasn’t so. 020
stoneface58.bsky.social @stoneface58.bsky.social · 15/12/2024First there is no department of DOGE,Trump can’t start a new bureaucracy without a super majority of congress. Elon and vivick are not elected officials so stop with the bullshit! 160
Risto 🇫🇮 @ristox.bsky.social · 14/12/2024When democrats get into power again it would be good time to look how much money Musk gets from taxpayers and perhaps cut everything. Lot of money to be save right there. 0132
detroit-denny.bsky.social @detroit-denny.bsky.social · 17/12/2024How would they get their kickbacks that’s their bread and butter 000
Max @maxphantasmart.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I can’t wait til they start cutting all those evil socialist things that MAGA are gonna end up acting all betrayed and hurt over being removed… 🙄 010
Rerun @rerun201.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I would also end subsidies to corporations whose CEOs are billionaires. 290
Fuck this timeline 🫘 @anonymousnow.bsky.social · 16/12/2024Not to mention paying congressional per diem that is being abused. And PPP loans that were forgiven for elected officials. 162
jimrissmiller.bsky.social @jimrissmiller.bsky.social · 15/12/2024Pretty sure that’s not what they have in mind. 😊 010
Bowiegrrl🍩 @bowiegrrl.bsky.social · 16/12/2024I hate Doge and agree on 100% on gun safety, but your other claims are completely inaccurate and made up. M4all would cost 3 trillion at a conservative estimate. Cutting fossil fuels subs would hike costs a great deal. And cutting the military is ridiculous. 310
Alan Howe, Democracy promoter, anti-fascist, Cassandra @alanhowe.bsky.social · 16/12/2024I see others cower and capitulate to the fascist demagogue, but I am committed to doing everything I can to keep Putin's saboteur out of the White House and to save our Democracy. If we do not stop Trump he will stop us. Join me. Read share, and support the plan. www.dailykos.com/stories/2024...dailykos.comWe Can Stop TrumpWelcome to the resistance. I have a proposal for you for action at the end of this essay, but it will make more sense to you if first we talk more about “kompromat.” You will note that the word sounds... 021
Xel-Há 🇨🇦 🎗 @gxelha.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I like these options as a starting point. But what about all the subsidies Elon receives for his companies? 040
Max 🇺🇸 🌐☯ @maximumeffort433.bsky.social · 15/12/2024Gun safety laws are gun safety laws, Republicans will never pass gun laws. Medicare for All would require Republicans to raise taxes, Republicans will never raise taxes. Cutting fossil fuel subsidies looks like environmentalism, Republicans hate environmentalism. But maybe in 2028. 020
Jack @imnotjack.bsky.social · 17/12/2024I like you, you have good ideas. But please explain gun safety laws and how they save 550 BN please 000
