Caroline Sunshine On The Future Of DOGE Post-Musk 'Ethos Should Remain In Our Federal Government'
Trump 2024 Campaign Deputy Communications Director Caroline Sunshine joins Fox Across America With guest host Paul Gleiser to give her take on Elon Musk's departure from the Department of Government Efficiency, and the impact he's had on highlighting wasteful government spending.
'I think DOGE's mission and ethos will remain. I know that Doge has staffers now in every agency in the federal government, but I think it's a lesson sometimes in humility, I guess is the lesson I would say for our listeners in that, I know we all know that the bloat and the spending in our government is bad and it's wasteful and it's corrupt and we think we have a full picture of just how bad it is, but I promise you, however bad you think it is it's 10 times worse. And what you're seeing, Elon came in with the goal of two trillion they've been able to do far less than that. It's just hard to grasp the enormity of the waste, fraud and abuse that exists in our government and the way that it is structured, and I have seen many a brilliant businessman, many a brilliant mind sort of be humbled at thinking they can apply the same ethos and the same logic that they use in their very successful private enterprises and apply that to the federal government and think that they can get the same result. Sometimes it works. Sometimes what you find is you've got a cutaway even more fat than you think. So I'm optimistic about the future of DOGE. I think that ethos should 100% remain in our federal government, and in our administration. And it's something the administration should double down on over the next four years, because I believe that's how long it's going to take to get this done and do it and do it right. Thus is the nature of the Leviathan of our government.'

Former Detroit home of Rosa Parks in line for historic district designation
A proposal is pending for the former Detroit home of Civil Rights Movement activists Rosa and Raymond Parks to be named a local historic district. The Detroit City Council Planning and Economic Development Standing Committee will hold a public hearing to consider the proposal. The designation is intended to honor the flat in the 3200 block of Virginia Park Street where Civil Rights activists Rosa and Raymond Parks lived for 27 years. "Their activism in Detroit helped shape the Civil Rights Movement," the Detroit Historic Designation Advisory Board said on its social media post. A public hearing, which is part of the designation process, will begin at 10:35 a.m. June 26 at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center on Woodward Avenue. Detroit's local historic districts are meant to be associated with people or events that are a significant part of Detroit's history, or have artistic or historical significance. Once a local historic district is established for a site, any exterior alterations to the building must go through the Historic District Commission. Rosa Parks, who was already active in the Civil Rights Movement, became known for her refusal to follow the Jim Crow-era laws in Montgomery, Alabama. Specifically, she refused to give up her seat on a bus and move to the back of the vehicle on Dec. 1, 1955. Her arrest in that incident helped spark the Montgomery bus boycott. After the boycott, Rosa and Raymond Parks moved to Hampton, Virginia, and then settled in Detroit. He died in 1977. She died in 2005.
