EFFORTPOST Chuds are r-slurred and have small peepees; a longitudinal study of Dunning Kruger, Sociopathy and Magical Thinking

Illustration I: the delusional debt hawk

Mandatory spending consumes 84%-87% of total federal revenue ever year. This is the spending that occurs without congress doing anything, mostly in gibs to the elderly. This will reach 100% of federal revenue by 2031. Neither party want anything to do with cutting Medicare or Social Security so its clearly a tax problem, while the Democrats are usually as r-slurred as the Republicans I am fairly certain they are the ones pushing for higher taxes vs the group calling for lower taxes.

If the federal government simply stopped spending anything at all it would take 11 years to pay down the debt right now. The current law gap, without accounting for continued demographic catastrophe or new nonsense congress comes up with, and to zero the debt at the typical 75 year window would require average effective rates to increase by 50%.

Social Security/Medicare are not going to be cut and taxes are not going to increase substantially. We are all fricked.

Illustration II: the chad rag making all chads even stupider

The title mentions TD but the article is actually about congress. TD actually does almost no spending (just its own operational stuff) and instead acts to hold government accounts, an agency tells them to send money and gives a budgetary authority code. Clearly trying to shill for Elon fricking around in the fiscal service.

Anyway the piece of fiction is talking about a congressional rule created in 1974 to try and manage spending. Congress decided they were going to split the legal authorization for the government to perform a function with the funding of that function and then have their own congressional rule that appropriations can only happen for authorized functions. Fantastic idea except the rule lasted about 2 years before they decided they didn't like having to justify why every time they created pork. Naturally they left the underlying law in place so CBO have to waste time & money tracking & reporting to congress on unauthorized appropriations every year. The real waste is CBO having to prepare the report.

The article is trying to claim;

• Congress violating a rule that no longer exists is illegal.

• This has something to do with TD.

• The spending wasn't entirely known and already tracked thus requiring an audit. Its citing a CBO report from July 2024.

• Elon and is merry band of cucks is remotely qualified to perform a financial audit.

This is also Elon:

TD are not the accounting arm of the federal government. Each agency are responsible for their own payments, TD are outright legally blocked from doing more than ensuring a payment is paid out of the right budget to the payee the agency specifies. Im sure Elon doesn't know this, for he is also an r-slur.

Illustration III: chuds don't understand that sometimes offices change showing they have the temporal reasoning abilities of a dog

I have no idea what the IRS data they are talking about is but their oldest and latest 660 has the same mailing address, here is the 2001 form

They seem to mostly operate out of DC at 2000 M St NW Suite 850, Washington, DC 20036

The abandoned address is the one they were at when their record was created in FPDS. FPDS is explicitly not an accurate or primary source of address or contact data, thats not what its for or how it functions. Im sure the big data experts in the chudosphere will have a solution for normalizing data across hundreds of disparate systems that wont cost billions and billions of dollars.

Nope, not so much.

Illustration IV: chuds want government to spend at all advertisers equally, they should not care if they actively misinform people

I expect People's Daily and RT to receive immediate ad buys from all of the federal government.

Illustration V: wherein rona was China designed at the behest of USAid to interfere with US elections

Viruses don't evolve naturally and viruses are sentient thus perform electoral interference at the behest of USAid. Rona only impacted the US after all, no other countries in the world were impacted at all.

The actual thing the "article" is talking about is

In an effort to identify and respond to new zoonotic diseases before they spread to humans, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) established its Emerging Pandemic Threats (EPT) program. The EPT program consists of four projects: PREDICT, RESPOND, IDENTIFY, and PREVENT. The PREDICT project seeks to identify new emerging infectious diseases that could become a threat to human health. PREDICT partners locate their research in geographic 'hotspots' and focus on wildlife that are most likely to carry zoonotic diseases – animals such as bats, rodents, and nonhuman primates.

USAid was funding viral surveillances around the world. Bats are extremely common here as they act as viral wells.

A year ago there was a survey of experts on likely origins https://www.science.org/content/article/virologists-and-epidemiologists-back-natural-origin-covid-19-survey-suggests

77% probability to a zoonosis, 21% to the lab-leak

One-quarter of respondents seemed to be very sure about a zoonotic origin, giving it a probability between 96% and 100%

This is the classic rightoid conundrum

They think no evidence of something occurring doesn't mean its not occurring, just that we haven't found evidence yet but it totally must be occurring because some guy on Twitter told me it was. Its absolutely possible rona was created in a lab; there is no evidence that occurred, the genetic structure of the virus makes it very unlikely that occurred and the researchers not publishing any intermediate research before or during creation of the virus is very unusual.

Illustration VI: feeding people in countries where terrorist groups are active is supporting terrorism

This is more that letting people starve to death is not acceptable when you have the means to prevent it rather than soft power but ok.

Over the last two years, USAID had funneled $2.3 billion in "humanitarian assistance" to Omar's native Somalia. Last year it reported a request for $1.6 billion in aid and even with the Biden administration on the way out the door, it sent an additional $29 million in December 2024.

Somalia, along with other Islamic terrorist entities, including the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in Gaza, were among the top beneficiaries of USAID cash.

USAID boasted of having sent $2.1 billion to Gaza and the West Bank since the Hamas attacks of Oct 7. In 2024 alone, $917 million was programmed for the terrorist areas occupying Israel.

USAID provided over $3.7 billion to Afghanistan since the Taliban took over with $832 million in the previous fiscal year alone. The money was so unaccountable that USAID refused to cooperate with the U.S. Government's Afghan War watchdog tracking money going to terrorists.

Chud's think the US government just sends money to foreign governments as aid don't they? I also haven't seen the tiny ineffectual government of Somalia referred to as a terrorist before, that's chudtastic. Wait until they find out that both countries were exempted by Rubio from the shutdown. https://www.state.gov/emergency-humanitarian-waiver-to-foreign-assistance-pause/

Overwhelmingly aid to Somalia & Afghanistan is food & medical care. In the case of food this mostly takes the form of USAid buying surplus grain from US farmers, food aid has always been a giant gibs program for US farmers.

Illustration VII: media are all liars except when they agree with my feelings

I really love that top comment. Saying that totally unironically.

The media have spent decades destroying their own credibility and seemingly even with their industry going to shit they don't seem able to move from opinion mode to informational mode. I find it utterly hilarious that the chud response is not to create higher quality & more accurate news but instead to rely on batshit nonsense "journ*lists" who have no concept of fact checking and don't feel and ethical duty to tell the truth. I look forward to infowars reporting from the pentagon.

I want HBO to make a news show based around how this show represents coders to integrity to actually be.

Illustration VIII: we all love the constitution, except when it doesn't let things we want to do

Texas and a few other states have passed profoundly unconstitutional laws that try to criminalize people engaging in free association choosing not to associate. As defenders of the constitution I am sure chuds will be up in arms and calling for the immediate recall of those responsable.

Whoopsie, the first amendment was clearly written by communists anyway. We should kill that b-word.

Illustration IX: seal guy will totally fix a systems integration issue

Despite the constant claims otherwise the agencies that ultimately make up the branches of the DoD pass their audits. The issue is fundamentally that the headline branches can't globally audit all spending that occurs under them, its ultimately a systems & accounting integration issue. Currently the Navy are the problem branch, Army & AF have largely solved the problem. As with all spending its accounted for and is independently audited, you just can't get an accurate accounting from the Navy for all their spending and have to drop down a level or two. R-slurred and should absolutely be fixed but I look forward to Hegseth completely failing to fix it too.

The problem reminds me very much of https://federalnewsnetwork.com/it-modernization/2023/05/opms-new-approach-to-modernizing-retirement-services-is-all-about-small-bites/ FERS currently handles all retirement using a paper system under a mountain in PA. Two expensive rounds of attempted computerization have failed because unions wont allow changes that reduce headcount.

I see not evidence from Trump's first administration that he is even remotely the right person to tackle these issues. Fundamentally they require very substantial legislative changes that require bipartisan support. They require someone running the show who respects and listens to experts who can tell them what needs to happen so he can get that whipped. Congress have been incapable of doing that kind of work for decades and Trump's dementia clearly reduced his IQ from 80 to 12 but he still thinks its 9001.

Illustration X: guy who thinks economics peaked in 1908 and is 89 years old should lead an audit of the fed

https://www.federalreserve.gov/aboutthefed/audited-annual-financial-statements.htm are the audits of the regional banks and BoG.

has been a long term r-slur on this issue

This one is the one I am looking forward to the most because its going to kick off either a massive backdown or an economic shitstorm. A few possibilities;

• As an independent agency the fed have no reason to let Elon in the building.

• Daddy likely doesn't have the authority to fire any member of the BoG.

• Attempting to frick with the fed would cause immediate financial chaos. Them being boring as frick and stable is kinda the basis of worldwide finance.
