US Elections (& Politics) :)

Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins has initiated significant spending reforms within the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). He recently announced the cancellation of a $178,000 contract with Politico Pro, writing, "Ran across a $178,000 contract VA had with Politico and we promptly canceled it. That money can be better spent on Veterans health care!" Collins has eliminated nearly 60 positions focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, resulting in savings exceeding $8 million annually.

I guess his podcast and radio show are gone huh? I listen to about 6 podcasts trying to fill the void Limbaugh left, none are as good as him for me but I listen to Bongino much more than the others. Good news and bad news, he will be great at this new job but we will sure miss his podcast & radio shows. Hopefully Dan can update us today.

Edit: I saw this on Real Clear Politics:

"Bongino’s decision to accept the high-profile FBI post will force him to divest from his conservative media empire and leave his viewers, what he refers to as “Bongino Army,” without a go-to general. The conservative media personality stands to lose tens of millions of dollars by leaving his show even for one year."

Trump needs to give a State of the Union address and scold those in Congress for trying to pass a bloated government. He can point out that he is trying to cut costs and save things like Social Security while these clowns are doing the opposite.

Serious question:

Is anyone tired of all this WINNING yet?

The policy and personnel changes are great but it's all just lip service until arrests and prosecutions of the bad actors take place. Until that happens, nothing will deter things from swinging back the other way in the future..

and it can swing back FAST. I see this like all these NGO's and unsupervised unaudited agencies and departments are like meth-addicted wackjobs... and the "meth" they crave is MY TAX DOLLARS. You can't cure an addict overnight, and they will slip right back into their addiction at the drop of a hat.

Lester Holt is stepping down this summer! The supposed news anchor who stated you don't need to provide both sides of a story, only the one HE thinks should be told. POS.. good riddance.

My ass had value too, until YOU BASTARDS worked it to death! Shed those crocodile
tears as we have for so long. When you are done with your "cry", put on some "Big Boy"
cloths and go to work like the rest that you have not beaten to death.

Rome was not built in a day or a month. Have to start somewhere.....

 

[TonyR]

Yes, you are correct, it did have value...to YOU!

And people bitchin' about prices not coming down!
For God's sake, people.....Biden had 4 years to get it this inflated....at least give Trump a fourth of that to bring it down some!

If unchecked most of us can put on weight slowly, maybe as fast as 60 lbs. in 4 years. What responsible doctor do you know would try to get you to lose even 20 pounds in 5 weeks?

I can imagine the fired federal workers applying and asking in the interview if they can work from home.
