Duval leaders are doubling down on DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), with a newly filed resolution requesting the state-level DOGE team audit the county's budget.
In a unique request to the city council of Muskogee, Oklahoma, Councilman Traci McGee proposed the creation of a "Double Doge" cryptocurrency to be used as a form of payment for city services, aiming to boost the local economy and attract tech-savvy individuals. Inspired by the popular Dogecoin cryptocurrency, which features the Shiba Inu dog from the "Doge" meme, McGee suggested that the city could benefit from the growing interest in cryptocurrencies. The proposal, which also includes plans for a "Doge Day" festival to promote the currency, has sparked both interest and skepticism among residents and city officials, with some questioning the practicality and stability of using such a volatile digital currency for municipal transactions.
