The Western Journal: DOGE Reports Cuts of $1B per Day - If True, DOGE Could Have 75% of $2T Cuts by End of Trump's Term
The newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under President Trump reports saving approximately $1 billion per day by halting unnecessary hiring and improper payments. While this is seen as a positive start, DOGE aims to increase savings to over $3 billion daily.
Achieving $3 billion in daily cuts could lead to significant annual savings, but it would still fall short of the $2 trillion annual reduction promised by Elon Musk. Despite the challenges of reforming a vast federal bureaucracy, any cuts are viewed favorably by taxpayers.

The Western Journal: Don Jr: If Dad's Opening Guantanamo for Illegals, Why Not Alcatraz, Too?
Donald Trump Jr. suggested reopening Alcatraz to house criminal illegal immigrants in response to his father's announcement about using Guantanamo Bay for the same purpose. The president stated that the facility has capacity for 30,000 detainees, focusing on the most violent offenders.
While Trump Jr.'s comment was likely made in jest, it underscores the administration's commitment to addressing illegal immigration and deporting dangerous individuals. The president's plan aligns with previous statements about targeting criminal aliens, indicating a serious approach to immigration enforcement.
