Daily Mail Online reports that Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, is leading DOGE’s aggressive plans to set up a new ‘DOGE Caucus’ in the Senate. It sounds like she’s fully onboard. She came up with 22 ways Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy can use the DOGE to trim down the government. It would slash $1 trillion immediately. She met with Elon, Vivek, and the incoming Treasury Secretary Howard Lutnick.
Ernst’s first bill is the Remote Act, which would use software to monitor employees’ remote work. It would also monitor bureaucrats’ computer use and require agency reports on the adverse impacts of telework. Only 6% of bureaucrats go into the office full-time.
What is the percentage of deadbeats? Taxpayers want to know.
It will also collect the network traffic that workers generate.
I favor a bill mandating they go to work except under special and rare circumstances. Ernst’s ideas are good but it looks like it creates more bureaucracy when they could just demand they show up for work and then check to see if they have enough work.
Ernst’s data will provide key information on how to get D.C. back to work.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., was tapped to chair a new congressional subcommittee and assist DOGE effectively.
Mike Mulvaney said he tried to do the same thing, but the House, Senate, and most agencies were against him.
This perk certainly assured Democrats of their votes:
New Senate investigation finds just 6% of federal workers show up to work in person.

We also need to fire deadbeats. An 1883 law made it impossible to fire them. That has to go.
Study finds just 6% of government workers come to the office full time.
Meanwhile, the BLS reports government workers make fully 40% more than the average American pays their salary.
How did it get this bad?

How about we get back to what the Federal Government is supposed to do. Get rid of any and all people that are not involved in that.

After reading the article about Joni Ernst campaigning against Hegseth, can’t help but suspect this bill is the shadow to keep the slackers on the payroll!
JONIE, your kidding right?
“Ernst’s first bill is the Remote Act, which would use software to monitor employees’ remote work. It would also monitor bureaucrats’ computer use”
LAUGHING
THAT WILL NOT WORK – RINOs WILL VOTE FOR THAT IMMEDIATELY
Planning on monitoring electronically if the cursor is moving? They need to do better than that, there’s devices the simulate the mouse is busy. Buy one here for $20.

Stop working at home completely. Production improves immediately.
Thousands have been sold, they’re already using them!
“You’re fired! Get the hell ought of here. . ” lol – Trump
So Trump wants to play the game of demonizing certain groups of people. Picking winners and losers. It sure wasn’t the average worker who racked up $35 TRILLION in government debt. So you’re saying people working remotely don’t do enough work? How about auditing all of Congress? No, that will never happen. I agree that waste and incompetent employees need to be fired and gotten rid of but lets start with the big bucks the Pentagon spends building weapons of war and giving billions away. I’m tired of seeing the little guy get fucked all the time and this time will be no different.
There’s been plenty of research on remote working and how productivity is less. Musk found out when he axed 80% of the workforce and it improved the company’s operation.
The government’s payroll is over 270 Billion Dollars.
Time to get ought of those pajamas, set the glass of wine down and get back to work. That goes for EVERYONE. The big bucks are no exception. Sh*ts going to hit the fan and I can’t wait.
That’s a good idea, starting with Congress, etc. Plus let’s keep the slackers on the payroll for good measure. We wouldn’t want to upset the slackers! LOL
Interesting post, but dn’t keep your tongue stuck in your cheek.
I’m stupid Peter, what does that mean? Laughing
There are many job positions, as where I worked, that require the person to essentially ‘justify’ their positions every couple years or so. That would be a good start.
