When will DOGE be credible?

March 28, 2025
Life and politics

The interview at FOX sounded good. In the early 1990s, I was looking to expand my small business. I checked the SBA loan option; it smelled of corruption, so I passed. From what I have heard since then, almost everyone interacting with the SBA had the same impression. Why did everyone pretend no one knew? I am leaning toward DOGE's conclusions. However, I will patiently await criminal charges in the cases of loans given to children or seniors over 100 years old. When those who committed these frauds are in prison, DOGE will be credible.
