  DOGE asserted it would save $2 trillion.

The ketamine must have been particularly active that day. Look at the US budget, then look at the bits you can't touch (Medicare, Social Security, income security, veterans, etc), and try and figure out where you're going to save $2 trillion on what's left.

Mind you for an administration that just makes shit up as required it's par for the course.

Maybe the news has distorted a bit after crossing the Atlantic, but waren't there substantial outrages after the bits that couldn't be touched had in fact been touched?
