The Goat Pen

Michelle King, a 30 year SSA employee and acting commissioner put Leland Dudek on leave after she found out he helped DOGE understand how the SSA system worked.

At 4:30PM he posted Linkedin he was being put on administrative leave.. Within 3 hours, Michelle King was fired and he is now acting commissioner until Trump appoints his successor.

FAFO bureaucrats . Trying to fire one of the people who has been a civil servant dedicated to finding waste and fraud because you don't want to be audited. I hope that woman struggles to find a job.

More of this - all day, every day

Damn straight

30 year federal employee? And not just employee, head of an agency? She won't need to find a new job, she'll be getting more in retirement and benefits than most people ever make working...

Dudek…

Hedge, no one here wants to take away her pension. We want to take away her power. With no more power, she can do no more damage. Banish her and her pension checks to Orlando's Villages for the next 30 years. Instead of being a government VIP, she can have VD.

so Zelensky tells Europe is the US cuts off his money supply they need to cough up 250B

and yesterday we see this



so Europe is pissed because America will no longer pay for or die for war on their doorstep while they focus on social issues like arresting people for silently praying

Munk said something about mailing us checks. I would like to know more about this development

Great news about Ukraine. Even some of the smarter Dems get how far astray we’ve gone with these forever wars that drain all our money.

Oh, there's going to be a lot more than bureaucrats finding out. I hope this guy and his family struggle to find a job too b/c, well, they actually voted for this. FAFO indeed. But I wholeheartedly agree with your last sentence: More of this - all day, every day. And it's coming...

all these soundbites you post but no context

why is the guy losing his farm based on a Biden era $240K subsidy? Is he not solvent as a farmer on his own - shocking as a first generation cattle farmer at the age of 27.

He is in hock up to his ass I bet.

"we aren't in the business of giving out money and I don't know what $5,000 will do for you."


Now I do agree, they should pay the debt down with any money saved by Musk, but for this skank to get on TV telling the American people they shouldn't get it is off the rails

There were some Republicans saying that about covid stimulus. Fuck all them bitches and pay me, goddamnit!

Never did get a stimulus check.

"all these soundbites you post but no context"

I'll give you some context buddy, I doubt there's another sector or group of people who get more governement handouts than farmers. Can't wait to watch them howl if and when some of that starts to dry up. Like you said, I hope they all have to struggle to find jobs when they can't make it farming anymore. More of this, all day, every day!! You're under some delusion that only liberals are getting government money, I'm going to LMAO listening to Trump voters whine when they realize they're the real welfare queens...

I don't believe you hedge. I don't. I am calling you a liar.

If it was Obama, or Harris, or Clinton, or that anonymous unaccountable cabal of bureaucrats who were running the show for Biden that were making these calls and investigating these agencies, you would be supportive and gung ho. You would be laughing at these farmers. You would be loving every second of what is happening because for the first time, you would think that the federal government was looking out for the little guy. Instead, it is Trump so you are bellyaching. That is the only reason why you are posting the bullshit that you post. You are being a disingenuous lying asshole,

You don't believe that I'm LMAO at Maga chuds who were getting fistfuls of government money who are now whining b/c they're getting the rug pulled out from under them? You don't know me very well...

I am laughing at people who get fist fulls of government money. I don't care what their politics are. YOU care. This is entirely political to you.

That is what makes you disingenuous.

THE deported....



Look at all those helpless asylum seekers, just women, children, and elderly! Oh wait...

"I am laughing at people who get fist fulls of government money."

Yeah, me too. Esp Trump voters who for some reason thought they were so independent but are now realizing they were the real welfare queens all along. FOFA. Reminds me of the definition of a libertarian: Libertarians are like house cats: absolutely convinced of their fierce independence while utterly dependent on a system they don't appreciate or understand...
