One of the First Things Elon Musk, Vivek Plan to Cut Under DOGE
Sarah Arnold

Federal funding for the country’s largest abortion provider may have had its hey-day after President-elect Donald Trump tapped Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut wasteful spending on useless programs such as transgender and woke DEI— with funding for abortion clinics the first to go.

In a joint Wall Street Journal op-ed, Musk and Ramaswamy outlined their plans to cut funding from Planned Parenthood— the nation’s largest abortion clinic.

The two Trump-appointed cabinet picks suggested they are eying everything from "$1.5 billion for grants to international organizations to nearly $300 million to progressive groups like Planned Parenthood.”

In response, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America Alexis McGill Johnson called Musk and Ramaswamy “unqualified fanboys and agents of chaos.”

Music to my ears.  To end the federal government subsidizing the Democommie Party via Planned Parenthood is long overdue.  Much of that money ends up back in the pocket of corrupt Democommies' campaigns to maintain the status quo.  I say not one dime for this murder machine affecting genocide on a daily basis for decades.

                               NOT ONE DIME!!!!

In my entire life, I can not think of one person who my opinion of has so drastically changed. (Elon Musk)

In a period of 10-15 years, he IMO has gone from a left wing subsidy grabbing POS to a man who might have one of the biggest hands in saving this country.  Talk about a tale of Redemption.

Contrast oratory skills of 18 y.o. Vivek versus 60 y.o cackles.

Why the taxpayers have to foot the bill for any so-called research grants is beyond me.

... Legislators did not add their names to any earmarks in the FY 2024 DOD Appropriations Act, but they again added the most anonymous earmarks of any bill. The 107 anonymous earmarks in the legislation equal 86.3 percent of the 124 anonymous earmarks spread across all of the FY 2024 appropriations bills.

$1,945,275,000 for 54 anonymous earmarks for health and disease research under the Defense Health Program (DHP), which is an 8.3 percent decrease in cost from the 56 earmarks worth $2,121,460,000 in FY 2023, and the third highest ever earmarked for the program. The amount earmarked in FY 2024 for the DHP represents 25.6 percent of the total of $7.6 billion in DOD earmarks.  ...

CAGW

And the list goes on and on.

... For more than 20 years, Northwestern University researchers received National Institutes of Health money to watch hamster fights. The project reportedly received more than $3 million over the course of the project and $306,000 in 2015 alone. Some of those experiments involved injecting hamsters with steroids, then putting another hamster in the cage to see if the drugged rodents were more aggressive when protecting their territory.  ...

The clown act in Washington must end.  The corrupt mainstream media will fight viciously to preserve the status quo, but this work needs to be done.

I believe folks intent on balancing the budget could do so in one month's time. The end of pork in Washington is long overdue.  And more importantly, a plan to begin paying down the national debt must be implemented and sustained for however many years needed to vastly reduce the national debt.

Trump is right about NATO too.  If the countries of Europe are not going to pay for their defense, the USA must end supporting these fools.  Particularly Germany, the richest country in Europe that only contributes 50% of their obligation.  I say close half the USA military bases in Europe now.  Time to end the nonsense.

The USA has troops in 140 countries.  I do not believe it is in the best interest of the American people to have this footprint throughout the world.
