Dang, Doge was so effective that even Politico is writing self-reflective articles 
"Many in Washington bristled at the public’s failure to register how strong the economy really was. They charged that right-wing echo chambers were conning voters into believing entirely preposterous narratives about America’s decline."
"And then I began to detect a second pattern inside and outside D.C. alike. Democrats, on the whole, seemed much more inclined to believe what the economic indicators reported. Republicans, by contrast, seemed more inclined to believe what they were seeing with their own two eyes."
"What we uncovered shocked us. The bottom line is that, for 20 years or more, including the months prior to the election, voter perception was more reflective of reality than the incumbent statistics."

No shit, Sherlock....
I have said this for years, as have millions of people: the professional politician class is siloed and insulated from the real world. They believe what they read, the media, the millions of reports and briefing, written by people who engage in groupthink and confirmation bias.
Given the current "trade war", this is relevant here.
Tulsi Gabbard approved. Give me Kash, give me RFK. Now.

Looks like Kash and RFK are gonna take a minute....
At least out of this week, yeah. I think it happens for both next week.
Are these the last two?
SECAF (crickets), SECNAV (crickets), SECARMY (advanced yesterday) are still pending.
Shot.

'Clawed back': DHS chief Noem secures eye-popping sum sent to NYC for migrant hotels
"It was never happening!"
"Ok, it was happening, but not the way you said it was."
"Ok, it is happening the way you said it was, but you're really the problem for noticing."
"Ok, it is happening exactly the way that you said but it was a good thing and what are you going to do about it?"

Seems like the ruling is stating there is no standing, because nothing's happened yet to demonstrate harm to union members. OPM will have to not follow through on the agreement for someone to sue.
Too bad you've gotta waive your legal rights if you resign.

There is no harm to union members, you're volunteering to leave.
I took a buyout in 2003. They are not new.
