So, you would like another independent non-government entity with full access so they can evaluate DOGE? Like a DO(DOGE)E?

That shouldn’t be necessary. Just literally any independent source corroborating the claims. I would also be immensely interested in that.

Yes. Exactly. It's checks and balances.

The 'right' are all about being open. If something is being cut, or fired, then publish those finding openly. Make the data public, for open review.

Funny how all of a sudden "we need to keep what we are doing secrete" is a fine argument.

Otherwise you are just putting in place a new 'Deep State'. Guess that is fine and dandy now.

It’d be cool if we still had the independent IGs in place to make sure everything’s on the up-and-up. That would definitely make me feel better about this.

But one of the first things Trump did was fire a bunch of them. Blatantly illegally, because of course that’s how he’d do it.
