The Fork Led to a Ditch
Read more . . . →DOGE paid 144,000 federal workers $6.7 billion to sit at home and do nothing. That was the efficiency plan. A 435 percent spike in paid administrative leave. Six times the salary cost of the year before. The program was called “Fork in the Road,” and it was sold as a way to trim the fat. The GAO just showed everyone what it actually trimmed: seven billion dollars from the treasury, for the privilege of having fewer people do the work. Then the agencies started rehiring. Over 20,000 new hires by June, same kinds of roles they’d just paid people to...

Soft Landing
Read more . . . →One of them got a parachute. The other got a box. He floats in a pressed suit under a gold canopy. The cardboard box next to him is doing terminal velocity toward whatever’s left down there. It held a desk lamp and fifteen years of tenure. The landing was decided long before either one jumped.

Thirty Billion and a Soccer Ball
Read more . . . →The US and China just released their big tariff deal. Seventy-seven items get relief. The list includes fireworks, Christmas ornaments, tableware, and soccer balls. That’s the headline from the summit: you can buy a cheaper soccer ball now. Meanwhile, tariffs have cost the average American household over $2,500 this year. Congratulations, you got about nine percent back. Mostly in ornaments. This is the cycle. Break something big, fix something small, hold a press conference. The Supreme Court ruled the IEEPA tariffs unconstitutional back in February. Didn’t matter. Trump kept collecting and now wants a standing ovation for agreeing to stop...

Secondhand Clout
Read more . . . →The resale market hits different when the product was already worthless new. Five bucks gets you the checkmark somebody paid eight for. They’re on velvet like antique watches, and the guy behind the counter isn’t fooling anyone. Every pawn shop tells the same story: someone needed the cash more than the symbol. Verification used to mean something. Now it means you had a credit card and a moment of weakness.
