Democrats on the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations yesterday released a jaw-dropping report attempting to document the scope and scale of financial waste, personnel upheaval, and human suffering caused by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency and Elon Musk’s giddily uninformed strike force of Peter Thiel acolytes. In all, the Democrats, led by Richard Blumenthal (CT), estimated DOGE cost the government $21.7 billion. “DOGE-generated waste could also have easily funded monthly food assistance for the 5.3 million families losing an average of $146 in monthly food security assistance ($9.3 billion per year) under the new budget; or it could have been used more broadly to support the 40 percent of taxpayers that will see a net increase to their taxes as a direct result of the Trump tax plan,” the report contends.

“There are so many extraordinary people serving this country,” she told Colbert. “But the system itself is failing to defend the principles we stand for.” Before diving into the politics, Harris eased into the conversation with a grin. When Colbert welcomed her back to the public stage, she quipped, “Well, I’ve got some things to say… and you’re safer than Twitter.” The audience roared. Harris confirmed she will not run for governor of California and, for now, has no plans to re‑enter electoral politics. Her decision, she said, was less about strategy and more about refusing to participate in a structure she believes is fundamentally dysfunctional. “It’s not about sparing myself,” she explained. “It’s about recognizing that this system — as it is — is not working.”
