Let's see....USAid was gutted because it was a waste to feed kids in Africa, which is wasteful spending. Space X has $20 billion in contracts, $12 billion which has yet to be spent, and the DoD and NASA, two big departments that provide that funding, have already been "audited" and cuts made, but not a dime was cut from Space X, which includes funding to explore building a colony on Mars. If hungry kids in Africa are wasteful spending, the money to research growing food and feeding kids on Mars should be equally wasteful. Also, I'm not sure of the progress that has been made on Leon's recommendation that the $2 billion, 15 year contract to upgrade the ATC system that was awarded in 2023 to Verizon be terminated and given to Starlink instead.
And for those of us who are curious about the methodology used in these audits and a detailed breakdown of these savings only have the DOGE "wall of receipts" to prove anything. This is basically screen shots of computer screens and even some of those aren't available. So no realy proof is available. But we should trust a guy who tells us the Full Self Driving is just 6 months away...as he has done in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. And it's still being beta tested on roads near you.
