Yeah, it looks like when everything is now hyper effective and all unnecessary spending was already cut, thanks to DOGE and BBB, there is no problem spending few millions on Shuttle moves, Ball rooms etc... /s

btw. Where is DOGE now ? Was it self-optimized to 0 employees now - like when there is no cost cutting needed anymore - than cost cutting agency is the most ineffective part of the government ;-)

Ball room is privately funded btw.

Privately extorted funding, that is.
