A doge meme. From the Department of Health and Human Services. Many lame.
When cable news picks up the @HHSGov Doge, its going to strike a lot of people who have never seen Doge as confusing and idiotic. #backfire

And that’s after millions of premium increases and canceled insurance policies. This aggression will not stand.
.@HHSgov You've already ruined our economy and our health insurance. Don't ruin Corgi puppies for us too. It's all we have left.

A 20-person @HHS committee spent two months creating, reviewing, editing, censoring, finalizing and approving that #DogeCare tweet.

.@HHSGov can't get stars to push the agenda so you resort to memes. It's not even the right dog!
