Billionaire Marc Andreessen supports Elon Musk’s DOGE. He says the United States in on track to ADD A TRILLION DOLLARS to the deficit EVERY 70 DAYS
“One of the reasons people in Washington are so cynical is because they know all the bullsh*t. We're adding a trillion dollars to the national debt every 100 days right now. And it's compounding, and it's now passing the size of the Defense Department budget, and it's compounding
-
Pretty soon it's going to be adding a trillion dollars every 90 days
-
and then it's going to be adding a trillion dollars every 80 days
-
and then it's going to be a trillion dollars every 70 days.
And then if this doesn't get fixed, at some point, we enter a hyper inflationary spiral and we become Argentina or Brazil”

Over the last decade, Americans have been slandered, fired, charged, and even jailed for simply voicing their opinions.
That ends today.
I am announcing the closure of the @StateDept's Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference, formerly the Global Engagement Center (GEC), which cost taxpayers more than $50 million per year and actively silenced and censored the voices of Americans they were supposed to be serving.

BREAKING 🚨 The US State Department has just placed all 30 full-time staff at the Global Engagement Center’s remnant known as R-FIMI on leave, eliminated all 50 full-time staff positions and delivered a notice to Congress ending R-FIMI’s existence and $65 million in funding 🧵👇

This historic development today was made possible by @SecRubio and Acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy @DarrenJBeattie, as part of a complete restructuring of the State Department’s activities and capacities to prevent the abuses and weaponization of the past.
-
The development today is the State Department’s initiation of a RIF (Reduction In Force) that will permanently end the positions at GEC / R-FIMI, so there is no more reshuffling of positions or simple renamings of the office to carry out the same malign censorship efforts.
-
While GEC was formally sunset late last year after a showdown in Congress to deny its reauthorization, the Biden State Department got around this by putting GEC’s staff and operations under a new name: the Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference office (R-FIMI).
-
Last month, @SecRubio and Acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy @DarrenJBeattie terminated 100+ contractors that R-FIMI worked with, which formed a deep partner web between censorship operatives in the private sector and the muscle of the US gov’t to go after speech.
-
But in gov’t, it’s easier to terminate a contractor than a public employee. The structuring of today’s move as Stage 1 of a RIF to eliminate the office and dissolve the office entirely prevents the possibility of bureaucratic delays that come from contesting firings.
They can run, but they can’t hide.

CENSORSHIP: The agency that silenced many of us here on 𝕏 is no more. Secretary Rubio has notified Congress that he has eliminated all full-time staff positions and 100+ contractors at the State Department's CFIM formerly known as the Global Engagement Center - the State Department's Censorship Agency.
