Just because it's part of the government doesn't mean it can do whatever it wants. Especially since none of its members are elected representatives.
I don't know, just google "doge illegal". I don't feel like "DOGE is operating extra-legally" is a particularly contentious fact.
- slt2021 2y agoDonny is elected and doge is basically implementing what donny has promised to voters all along I dont see discrepancy or conflict here, would you expect donny auditing expenses by himself exclusively ?
- thrance 2y agoAs per the US constitution, removing funding for federal agencies requires congressional approval. What DOGE is doing has not been approved by Congress. DOGE has removed funding for federal agencies, such as USAID. It follows from these three premises that DOGE is acting unconstitutionally. There, I spelled it out for you. You must understand, just because Trump is president does not make him a king, although the GOP is very much pushing for that. He is still supposed to abide by the law.
- slt2021 2y agoI will wait for the Supreme court decision to clarify this. What DOGE is doing is uncovering waste and running PR campaign, they do it for few more weeks, and Congress will be unable to reject DOGE's proposed cuts to federal agencies - because taxpayers are getting more and more angry at what kind of waste is being uncovered
