Summary
At the first meeting of the DOGE Caucus, a new congressional group focused on government efficiency, Republican Rep. Greg Lopez stated that cuts to Social Security and Medicare are likely “on the table” as part of debt reduction efforts.
The caucus, led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to slash government spending, raising concerns among advocacy groups about potential attacks on anti-poverty programs.
Critics, including Social Security Works, warn the caucus may push for privatization and benefit reductions.
This comes despite Trump’s prior commitment to protect these programs.
If DOGE doesn’t touch US Military spending (they won’t), it’s more bullshit than the TSA
What’s going to happen is DOGE will cut $5 trillion from the programs, and then there will be a $4 trillion in tax cuts that impact only the rich in someway or another, and an additional $1 trilion for the military.
0 money is actually going to be saved from this. Realistically it’ll be negative and cost money, not even 0.
