It feels like you're falling for the Politician's Fallacy here ("Something must be done, this is something, therefore this must be done."). You're right that there's broad agreement that the fat needs to be trimmed, but that doesn't make DOGE a good idea, and I don't think we've heard anything about them that isn't terrible, illegal, or both.
