Why DOGE Is Succeeding

Just weeks into DOGE’s fight against the Deep State, it’s obvious that Musk’s brainchild operates more like a tech startup—fast, agile, and focused on delivering results. I mean, just look at Team DOGE—instead of bringing in career bureaucrats or Washington insiders, he handpicked young engineers from Silicon Valley, Austin, and even Eastern Europe, all under 30 years old.

One of them, a 24-year-old Estonian coder, developed a fraud-detection algorithm that flagged over $2 billion in illicit transactions for private banks. Another, a 26-year-old AI specialist, helped optimize Tesla’s supply chain automation. Then there’s Luke Farritor, who created an algorithm capable of reading text from carbonized ancient scrolls, winning a $250,000 prize from the Vesuvius Challenge.

[The rolled-up scrolls were burned up during the Vesuvius inferno in Pompeii. They are but scrolls of ash. The remains look like black, charred hot dogs which fell to the bottom of a firepit. One professor ran them through a CT scan and revealed layers of burned paper. Ink on the burned paper didn't burn as fast as the paper, leaving a trace of an image. Luke applied AI to detect the difference between paper and ink and found the Greek word "purple." He believes AI will now be able to reconstruct all the words hidden within the ash-like paper.]

Notice a DOGE pattern? No Beltway insiders. No political appointees. Just young, hyper-competent tech professionals leveraging AI and automation (to cut through waste faster than any government watchdog ever has).

Another key strategy? Publicity. DOGE isn’t waiting for agencies to act—it’s making its findings public before legal challenges can even be filed. Instead of quietly reporting waste to the White House, DOGE posts its discoveries directly on Musk’s X platform, putting agencies on defense immediately.

Ruling Class Self-Interest: More War

Colonel Douglas MacGregor predicts a continuation of the Iran war soon, once all sides have replenished missile stocks.

"Washington’s political class manifests much less regard for the long-term strategic interests of its own citizens—their security and prosperity. As a result, Washington pays an exorbitant price in reputation and treasure for policies that confront Palestinians with the choice of death or expulsion from their homelands.

"Assumptions of tacit acceptance or rapid capitulation are implicit and dangerous.

[The Muslims will not 'do a deal.']

"When Hitler was briefed on the expected Soviet reaction to Operation Barbarossa, Major General Ernst Koestring, a Prussian officer fluent in Russian from a family that had lived in Moscow since the reign of Catherine the Great, advised: “Initially, German forces will advance rapidly. The various peoples on the Soviet periphery will likely welcome the German forces. Resistance will be weak. But when the Germans advance into ...
