    (X) Doubt

    DOGE won’t be able to do anything because it’s a fake office made to keep Elon happy enough to fund Trump. It won’t last a year before Musk and Trump hate each other because two narcissists like that can’t share a space.

    He can recommend ending DST all he wants, but nobody will have to listen to him.

      There is already a push for this though. Not eliminating DST, but making it permanent. This is just DOGE trying to take credit for something that could potentially already happen. Like how the GAO already exists and DOGE is just citing reports the GAO already has done. Nothing says efficiency like putting two people in charge of a program that is duplicating what another agency already does.

      Agree. DST is set by an act of Congress, and it can only be changed by an act of Congress.

      I don’t know, do you really have any faith in this Republican congress not to just rubber stamp everything that Trump and his man behind the curtain tells them too?
