Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was chosen to lead a new House subcommittee that will work with the planned Department of Government Efficiency run by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. The House panel will reportedly be called the Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency—allowing it to also carry the DOGE acronym.


“I’m excited to chair this new subcommittee designed to work hand in hand with President Trump, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and the entire DOGE team,” Greene said in a statement. Her subcommittee, she added, would lead to the dismissal of government “bureaucrats,” and “provide transparency and truth to the American people through hearings.

that answers to a fake department. The less involvement that imbecile has in official government business, the better it is for the rest of us.

And what happens to defectives, Elon? They are rounded up by the Gezpacho and sacrificed for the good of the Turd Reich jean pool.

If you are really serious about cutting government waste, you will tell EmptyGreene to sit down and shut up. Also, never wear sleeveless clothing again.
If you can accomplish this one thing, it is guaranteed cut the government’s expense for barf bags significantly.

A real movement would have picked someone respected and well known for being a process mover. Instead they picked a self interested social media influencer well known for being hated among congress.

Let the in-fighting begin.
