Ramaswamy Proposes DOGE Cuts, Including Veteran Healthcare Funding
Vivek Ramaswamy, newly appointed head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has proposed a radical cost-cutting measure: defunding federal programs that lack congressional authorization. This includes programs like veteran’s healthcare, NASA funding, and early education initiatives, which together receive over $500 billion annually despite expired authorization. Ramaswamy, along with DOGE co-leader Elon Musk, are aiming to reduce government spending by $2 trillion, and are seeking high-IQ individuals willing to work long hours to achieve this goal. Despite the potential impact on essential programs, DOGE is committed to eliminating wasteful government spending, claiming that programs without congressional approval are a clear example of such waste.
