Video: This Is Real! Obama Created a ‘DOGE’ Department in 2011 – And Guess Who He Put in Charge?
Hold onto your hats, patriots—this isn’t AI, it’s a jaw-dropping, laugh-out-loud truth bomb from 2011 that proves President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) isn’t new, but Obama’s version was a colossal flop. Video from @mazemoore on X (here) shows Barack Obama announcing his own “DOGE” department—the Campaign to Cut Waste—back in 2011, and guess who he put in charge? Joe Biden, with Obama quipping, “Nobody messes with Joe.” 😂 It’s a must-watch, and conservatives are having a field day.

Obama’s DOGE aimed to hunt down misspent tax dollars, as detailed in White House archives, but it crashed and burned—because Biden ran it into the ground. Posts on X are buzzing, with users pointing out Biden’s “relentless focus” promise flopped, leaving $17.6 billion in savings unverified and waste unchecked. Meanwhile, Trump’s DOGE, led by Elon Musk, has slashed $2 trillion in federal fraud, proving real leadership. Obama’s video, alongside clips of Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer preaching waste cuts in 2010, is a goldmine for Trump’s 2025 agenda—perfect ammo to expose Democrat hypocrisy.

Mark Van der Veen offers some of the most analytical and insightful writings on politics. He regularly opines on the motives and political calculations of politicians and candidates, and whether or not their strategy will work. Van der Veen offers a contrast to many on this list by sticking mainly to a fact-based style of writing that is generally combative with opposing ideologies.

A Democrat Politician never saw a tax dollar they couldn’t spend some how or give away for more power.
Or, launder back to their own bank accounts…………
That’s right!!! NOBODY messes with Joe, because Joe messes himself.
So for all you Overly “Educated” people with Zero Common sense. It seems once again those you look down on who do have Commons sense were “RIGHT” once again. Your “Education” may mean you are somewhat Smart at the Field you were …“Educated” in. That However doesn’t mean you have a Higher IQ than those you act like and consider are less than You. This is why I have always said Give me a Trade School Educated Person who can Troubleshoot and Solve Problems over a Degree’d College/University Person any day of the Week. Why? Because the Trade School Persons Work is the Proof of their Degree. Unlike the “Educated” College Person, Trade Schooled cannot hide behind their Degree or “Education” when they Fail like we see all across this country. All a Degree means pretty much anymore, is how much and how well the “Educated” swallowed all the Stupid Marxist Indoctrination. That’s how you get the saying: Some Ideas are so Stupid, it would take an “Educated” person to Believe them! Show some Respect for those you consider Less than. They have Life experience while most of you “Educated” don’t!
Thank you. I’ve been trying for years to get that idea in a concise, crystalized statement. I hope you don’t mind if I borrow it.
