President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency is doing the inflation reduction Congress has refused to tackle for decades.
More than a dozen judges in the last month have issued near-immediate restraining orders banning President Trump from acting as the nation’s chief executive. A large number of these judicial orders strike actions from Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a cost-cutting initiative led by fellow tycoon Elon Musk.
The administration may not temporarily freeze discretionary U.S. taxpayer funds to ensure all payments comply with the policies that Americans elected Trump to enact, judges have ruled. It may not put federal employees on leave for insubordination or buy out their contracts to save Americans money, other judges ruled.
Fourteen Democrat state attorneys general sued Trump, Musk, and DOGE on Feb. 13, alleging that the president choosing his own subordinates and aides is unconstitutional. Their hilariously overwrought language shows Musk and Trump are joyously bouncing around inside Democrats’ mental OODA loops:
In recent weeks, Defendant Elon Musk, with President Donald J. Trump’s approval, has roamed through the federal government unraveling agencies, accessing sensitive data, and causing mass chaos and confusion for state and local governments, federal employees, and the American people.
I am one of the American people, and I live out in the hinterlands known as the Midwest. I can assure you that “the American people” are not in “mass chaos and confusion.” Neither are our state and local governments. The mail is coming on time. The road crews are keeping that winter sleet driveable so we can attend work and school. The grocery stores are stocked. I walk my neighborhood every day, and there’s no “chaos” except the unhealthy and nauseating smell of secondhand illegal weed. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
