...and I'll go on the record, here and now, that I couldn't agree with these actions more.
So, if he does this...and not just for a minute, actually either helps their eradication and/or massive changes for the better...
...kudos to the man, and all who participated. The dnc rode the optics train so long and hard on this that it made me want to puke forever.

Wait, we failed to protect our QB in big games, again?
MAYBE THERE'S A LESSON HERE.

Not sure why you're surprised. He did the same during his first term. We sponsor something like 45% of the funding for the UNRWA which is really just a Hamas front organization. Relief is coordinated by the UNHCR for everywhere else in the World except Palestine..but they need a "special" organization? Keep the aide up to Gaza but move in some UN troops to distribute it via UNHCR so the funds don't go to Hamas to rebuild it's terror operation.
Between the Biden decisions to restart funding for the UNRWA, loosen sanctions and release frozen funds to Iran and the $1B gift of weapons to Afghanistan during the withdrawal, the US was the largest financier of terror in the World during the Biden Administration...and it wasn't even close.

I'm aware of all that, and called out sleepy Joe and his dumbass fan club for their fence-walking BS. My concern is how much is done for attention, and how much is noise for yet more optics...because, let's face it, 45/47 can and will do essentially anything for attention.
So, I applaud this action...but, will also be watching the future, as he's trying to make the inevitable "deals" with the Arab states whose money he openly covets.

He also cut departments that were investigating his smirking un-vetted, un-elected little weaponized appointee and his years' of complaints regarding racism and more at his facilities.
GOSH, how shocking!

Please provide evidence of this with non rambling and coherent proof. This is simply you, using your language to belittle actions that should have been taken before they ever started. Nothing you posted (that I can understand) makes any sense because everybody I know agrees that they’re finding spending that should have never been put in place.

You just can't help yourself, can you?
It's ok, I'll be assured your actions are also my doing any time, now...!

Awwww...using Trumplestilskin's personal news agency as a "source" despite them being busted for carrying his BS previously?
I'm absolutely certain that DOGE is going to find plenty of obvious pork and waste to cut, and crow about...
...but, they've already made some MASSIVE errors, much of what they're doing seems to have jumped right past legality, and VIP'S Big Boy seems determined to dig into our most sensitive data...despite not being elected or vetted for anything like that level of access, and plenty of recent history as a complete loon whose rants would cost his companies billions.
His post on X about "our personal shit" was a special moment in unprofessionalism.
He, and the orange assclown, both need to be accountable for trying to jump past rules/laws in their personal bids for power.
