Bill Maher criticized Elon Musk and DOGE for not addressing military spending cuts, highlighting the Department of Defense's inadequate reduction of $580 million from a $900 billion budget. He pointed out the inefficiency of the defense budget, which comprises 47% of discretionary spending, and questioned the necessity of numerous military bases and programs, suggesting a need for significant reforms. Maher also called out the Department of Homeland Security as a bloated bureaucracy, arguing for a more efficient approach to security measures post-9/11.
Americans support the idea of downsizing the federal government but disapprove of how Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are implementing these cuts. Polls show a majority oppose the mass firing of federal workers and believe the actions are harming the country, despite some backing for the initiative itself. President Trump has acknowledged the negative perceptions and shifted responsibility for downsizing to Cabinet secretaries, advocating a more measured approach.
