Imagine getting a surprise check from the government! Some people are talking about a possible $5,000 payment from money saved by a group called DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency). It's a big, exciting idea, but let's look at the facts.
- President Trump and Elon Musk have discussed this idea.
- The money would come from savings DOGE makes by cutting government spending.
- DOGE needs to save $2 trillion to make the $5,000 checks possible.
- Even if DOGE saves the money, Congress would have to approve it first.
- Many experts aren't sure if this will really happen.
