George Santos: Here Comes the DOGE Report in the South Shore Press

The newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has taken Washington, D.C., by storm over the last three weeks. 

As the Trump administration pushes for much-needed transparency in federal taxpayer spending, Democrats watch as their schemes are exposed for the world to see. With each new revelation, outrage spreads across the country.

DOGE’s mission is to identify and eliminate wasteful government spending, ensuring taxpayer dollars are used efficiently and transparently. 

By exposing corruption and mismanagement, DOGE aims to restore public trust and hold officials accountable—something Americans have long demanded from their government.

This reminds me of when critics attacked Elon Musk for spending $44 billion on Twitter (now X), arguing that the money could have been used to solve world hunger. 

By that same logic, we’ve now seen over $100 billion uncovered as wasteful government spending enough to solve world hunger twice over, with money to spare.

 Meanwhile, homelessness in the U.S. is estimated to affect between 250,000 and 3 million people, and experts suggest it would take roughly $20 billion to solve the crisis. So, I ask: why haven’t we done this?

The hypocrisy on display in Washington, D.C., is staggering. 

If only Democrats fought as hard to end homelessness and hunger as they do to fund projects like gender studies, we might see real change. Instead, their priorities seem misplaced.

That’s why it’s time for Americans to pay close attention to DOGE and ensure nothing gets swept under the rug. Here at The South Shore Press, we’re committed to keeping you informed. 

That’s why I’m proud to announce “The DOGE Report” a special weekly column where Deborah Williams will break down the latest developments and what they mean for you, our valued readers.

The time to rise to the occasion is now, and we’ve gladly taken up that torch. Stay tuned”we’re bringing you the facts, unfiltered and unafraid!

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
