Fascism is not right wing. It's still left wing. It's just in opposition to Marxist socialism.
yeah well since Stalin was in power anything Stalin Opposed was ' Fascism '
Trotsky who was TO THE LEFT of Stalin was a fascist. Then later Hitler and Mussolini = Fascist
all this was picked up in the 1920's / 30's by American Communists / Socialists and carried on by they leftist media
Tik History does a nice autistic break down of the history

A frequent claim made by the USDS “resistance” is that DOGE has rendered sensitive personal information insecure. For example, the site includes this by “Anonymous.”
This heavy-handed fear mongering neglects to mention one very important datum. USDS was doing an awful job of securing government data. During the last year of the Biden regime, there were at least 11 major data breaches involving Personally Identifiable Information (PII) held by these government agencies: Department of Health and Human Services, Department of the Treasury, Department of Justice and the Department of the Interior. The breaches involved millions of Social Security numbers, names, email addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers, dates and places of birth, biometric data, medical records, ad infinitum.
In other words, the claim that your PII was more secure before the advent of DOGE is nonsense. But most of what you will read on “We the Builders” is just old fashioned kvetching. The latest post on the site, contributed by “Publius,” rages about an email sent from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) that goes as follows: “Please reply to this email with a list of approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager.” It stipulated a deadline of “this Monday at 11:59 p.m. EST,” and warned against sending classified information. This outraged “Publius” because it arrived shortly following this X post:
Publius defiantly declares, “First of all, we don’t take orders via X. Second, let’s get practical. There are 2 million federal employees. Elon and his operatives aren’t going to read 2 million emails this week. Let’s assume it takes 2 min to read each email, that’s 66,667 hours of reading!” Publius clearly isn’t the brightest bulb in the circuit. This X post and the subsequent email from OPM was a classic “pulse check.” In other words, DOGE just wants to find out how many of our dedicated civil servants are actually engaged enough to know that their superiors want to know what they do all day. A pretty safe bet would be about 20 percent or so.

There are, without a doubt, hardworking, conscientious federal bureaucrats. They do not include the people who created ‘We the Builders.’

Dem Gov. Under Fire for Paying Cabinet Members Sweet Bonuses in 2024
According to records obtained by the Free Press under Michigan's Freedom of Information Act, Whitmer paid over $145,000 in bonuses to 15 of her cabinet members and department directors in 2024 as part of a "performance pay" program for high-ranking civil servants that has since expanded to include political appointees.
This unusual move has raised questions about whether these bonuses were intended to incentivize political loyalty, aligning appointees with Whitmer’s Democratic agenda instead of allowing them to function independently or focus solely on their official duties. Critics argue that the payments could be considered a strategy to strengthen her influence within the state’s Democratic Party.
Records show that Whitmer appointees, many of whom already earn salaries exceeding $200,000 annually, received bonuses nearing five percent. The bonuses were first disclosed in January when two Michigan State Police unions filed an ethics complaint regarding a bonus exceeding $10,000 awarded to MSP Director Col. James Grady. At that time, a Whitmer spokeswoman refused to answer whether other department directors, "unclassified" appointees serving at the governor's discretion, had also received bonuses.
