We thought the veil had irreversibly slipped when he bragged about sexual assault on camera.We assumed he had no more chances when he attempted a coup.We believed that 34 criminal convictions (and another 17 pending) would matter.It never mattered. It just shifted the goal posts.Even on this specific issue; it didn't make a difference to his supporters when we learned that Kremlin representatives had met his campaign officials in Trump Tower and offered to help get him elected.

This allowed DOGE to bypass traditional bureaucratic obstacles and immediately begin operations without requiring new legislation or congressional approval. The Origins: Obama’s 2014 Agency During the Obama administration in 2014, a lesser-known agency was created with a broad mandate to modernize government operations, streamline efficiencies, and reduce wasteful spending. The agency was originally positioned under the Executive Office of the President (EOP), meaning that it had direct ties to the White House but had minimal visibility or major operational impact. Key Features of the 2014 Agency: Already had a budget allocated from discretionary executive funds Came with regulatory authority over gov... less
