Measure Twice And Cut Once
While the Department of Government Efficiency looks to tighten the belt on spending, Americans are noticing the speed at which they're working towards making cuts. Former Congressman Garret Graves (R-LA) notes that although DOGE's effort seems aggressive, the U.S. is on an unsustainable financial trajectory.
Through DOGE's recent work, they have uncovered the Biden administrations misuse of taxpayers' dollars, which Garret argues that just because it has merit doesn't mean it needs funding from U.S. taxpayer dollars.
Uphill battle: President Trump has announced that he wants to eliminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency due to its alleged inability to help those recover from major disasters. To avoid potentially being cut, FEMA must find ways to sustain itself more efficiently and cheaper.
