Seeing people get excited about DOGE's findings is textbook propaganda. This info was always available, but certain people only care because it's being shared via a bullhorn and tailored to make a certain side is winning. Maddening stuff to watch play out and see how much we're all just sheeple.

This country is so cooked, man. Cashless society that wants to charge you 3% to use cards. That's on top of fees to get your own money out when you do need cash, etc. Very frustrating
