The first 100 days

Where were you when I was doing it under Bush?

If you were so worried about it then.... why do you suddenly stop now? Just because it aligns with your ideals of small government you don't care anymore?
Not sure I was posting on the crossfire board back then. I certainly don’t recall you bringing up legislating through EOs if I was. My position on the subject doesn’t change based on the party doing it. Bad precedent is bad precedent.

Neither of us were.. this is case of the royal we. My point is that you're not the only person who has pointed out the dangers of executive overreach and had it fall on deaf ears going back several administrations.

I think we can both agree the office of the President has become more powerful over the past 25 plus years. We can also probably agree this isn’t a good trend
 
we need more than career place holders.
You mean guys that sit in chairs with their arms folded, twiddling their thumbs while the real ‘adults’ do the important business?

Guys that spend more time on the golf course than they in the office?
 
A new executive order: "Only the president or the attorney general can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the Law is"....

Ridiculous savings claims continue.

Earlier this week, it was discovered that DOGE somehow added a couple of zeroes when claiming to have cut one ICE contract worth $8 billion. In actuality, the contract was worth only $8 million. Even as DOGE’s accounting discrepancies are uncovered, the total savings touted by DOGE on its website remains at $55 billion—and that number becomes more dubious with every passing day.

Knowing your disdain for deficit spending, I assume you’re thrilled about every penny saved and thus not borrowed

Who the fk cares about 55 billion, and it probably being half fake. 55 billion is not pennies on the dollar, it ia .0275%. That is not even a third of a percent. They are going to have to show a whole lot more than that to amount to anything. In reality it is probably a lot closer to .015 than it is to .0275. And what damage have they done to achieve this monumental savings. You slough off the damage, but they saved a damned farthing for the trouble.
