I don't want to make too much of this episode me just like, ugh.

So top line thoughts, does Justin Fox think he succeeded in reducing federal spending during his six months working at Doge?

Before we get into the details of his workflow, let's find out.

Do you know that the deficit did not go down at all?

Then it was 25 bucks.

Also, I feel like in this there is a there's an aspect of like the cruelty is the point.

That was so dismissive.
