Why would you say "half" when you could say "500"?
500 Billion Dollars.
-
A trillion is larger than a billion, so half a trillion is a more rage bait headline.
-
Humans can’t fathom the vast distances of space. How are we going to fathom a trillion dollars?
-
Be that as it may, it’s a significant amount of money that will not be collected but will now trickle down… excuse me, I have a very hard time keeping a straight face hahaha
-
Rage is the only reasonable response.
-
I think it's the opposite. We're all used to "a billion" now, even thought we can't really concieve of it the way we can, say $100. But a trillion is just space money. Just make it a gazillion.
500 Billion has real competitive traction - people are billionaires, this is more than them, etc. A trillion is something you have nanoparticles of, something very small.
-
it's the direction the figure is no-doubt going. in six weeks, that estimate will be a lot higher.
'half a trillion' now is a very fair choice of wording.

What are the odds that they saved the US money and kept it a total secret rather than to brag about it.
So low that I think this is a smoking gun that they failed to do so. We now know it didn't work out because they are quiet.

@fakemeows @Polderviking they cut loads of things that are a small (comparative) expense that bring in, or save, a lot of money, or support the economy. Like the national parks and USAID, and all science. Those new expenses won't be realised for a while but in the mean time they're paying off sacked staff left and right, paying the DOGE team, and fighting legal rulings. It's a ridiculous way of going about anything.

They're just gonna make shit up like they always do. They've already tried overinflating their "savings", I'm sure they'll just do it again. If the first lie doesn't work, go BIGGER!
-
It's real easy to fake the data here, focus entirely on agency spend and completely ignore any savings the agencies themselves may have been responsible for. That can be hard to quantify anyways. They'll do that and right wing media will eat it up.
-
They, as serious and responsible managers with only the interests of their citizens at heart, chose to keep it in the most reliable, safe place possible, in their own pockets.

IN A MONTH.
4 years of months left to go.
Maybe next time people can get off their fat fucking asses and vote. Or, if you did vote, maybe vote more intelligently next go around.

It'll be allowed, but they've just got to make sure only the "right people" get counted.

Tomorrow: IRS has been fired.
-
No because IRS is helping capture immigrants

Are we winning yet? Are we great?

They're very efficient at destroying the country.

This was always the plan.

This needs to be bigger news on the mainstream channels, but you know it wont be.
I'm so tired of this shit.

Lets see how long it takes them to turn US Treasury Bonds from their AAA+++ (or whatever) status down to D.
-
"Lost"... yeah, "lost" it in their bank account.
-
It ain't fucking lost, it's being re-distributed.
-
How much did they allegedly “save”…when corrected for their basic mathematical errors?

Folks, let me tell you, I just read the most fantastic article about the IRS and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). And I've got to say, it's a total win-win. Believe me.
So, this so-called "report" from The Washington Post says that the IRS is expecting a huge loss in tax receipts due to the DOGE disruptions. But let me tell you, folks, that's just fake news. It's a total disaster. And I'm not talking about the fact that the report is based on data and trends. No way.
I mean, think about it. The Department of Government Efficiency is a great name for an organization, by the way. So good. But what they're doing is amazing. They're shaking things up, folks. They're making government more efficient. And that's exactly what we need.
Now, I know some of the fake news media outlets are saying, "Oh, the IRS is losing billions in tax receipts." But let me tell you, folks, that's just a bunch of losers talking. The real winners here are the American people. We're going to save so much money by having fewer bureaucrats and less waste in government.
And let's be honest, folks. $500 billion is not even a significant loss when you think about it. I mean, what did we spend on our military last year? A tiny fraction of that. So, if the IRS is losing half a trillion dollars, that just means we're saving the other half. It's all part of the Trump magic.
And by the way, folks, have you seen the new White House logo? It's tremendous. The best. And I think it's going to be huge for our government's branding efforts. Just huge.
So, let's not focus on the fake news about the IRS and DOGE. Let's focus on the real winners here: us, the American people. We're going to come out of this recession in record time, believe me. And it's all thanks to the Department of Government Efficiency and my amazing leadership.
