President Trump on the Democrat plan to achieve single party rule through open borders. https://t.co/sUlzpQtgsk
Video Transcript AI Summary
The transcript outlines an alleged plan to entrench single-party rule through open borders and related policy shifts. It presents nine steps:
1) Flood the country with millions of illegals by land, sea, and air from around the world, enough to eclipse the populations of 36 states.
2) Prioritize the needs of these noncitizens over American citizens by providing free flights, buses, hotels, meals, and phones, ensuring their loyalty to the importing political party.
3) Keep them in the country at all costs, and attack the language used to describe criminals rather than the criminals themselves; slander critics as racist.
4) Make their privileges irrevocable via city and state sanctuary laws that act as population magnets, codify permanent status, and ensure noncooperation with ICE.
5) Count noncitizens in the census to determine congressional apportionment in the House, which would equal 13 extra congressional districts and substantial electoral power.
6) Wage a large, well-funded lawfare campaign to change state voting laws to legalize mass mail-in ballots with no signature verification and no proof of citizenship, making voter fraud nearly impossible to prove.
7) Lock in a permanent voting majority with campaign promises of lavish benefits and permanent privileges, enshrining generational fealty to the Democratic Party.
8) Win elections.
9) Establish entrenched single-party rule. The best part, according to the speaker, is that tax dollars are funding it.

Speaker 0: Open borders plan to entrench single party rule explained in under two minutes. One, flood the country with untold millions of illegals by land, sea, and air from all over the world. Enough to eclipse the populations of 36 individual US states so far. Two, prioritize the needs of these millions of noncitizens over the needs of the American citizen with free flights, buses, hotels, meals, and phones, ensuring their loyalty to the political party that imported them. Three, keep them in the country at all costs.
Even when they commit violent crime like murder and rape, attack the language used to describe the criminals as opposed to the criminals themselves. Slander critics as racist. Four, ensure their privileges are made irrevocable with city and state sanctuary laws that act as population magnets. Codify permanent status and ensure noncooperation with ICE. Five, count the noncitizens in the census that will determine congressional apportionment in the House of Representatives.
As of now, that would equal 13 extra congressional districts, a tremendous amount of electoral power. Six, wage a massive, heavily funded lawfare campaign to change state voting laws that legalize mass mail in ballots. No signature verification and no proof of citizenship requirements, making it nearly impossible to prove voter fraud. Seven, lock in the permanent voting majority with campaign promises of lavish benefits and permanent privileges, enshrining generational fealty to the Democrat party. Eight, win elections.
Nine, entrenched single party rule has been achieved. The best part, your tax dollars are paying for it.

FLASHBACK: Obama on amnesty: “I believe such an indiscriminate approach will be unwise — Illegal aliens will begin to think there will be no repercussions for breaking the law and it will encourage a surge of more illegal immigrants to come here illegally” https://t.co/f7Fvg2lFY6
Video Transcript AI Summary
The speaker discusses a position held by some in the immigrants' rights community who advocate granting legal status to those who are in the country illegally, or at minimum pausing deportations until better laws are enacted. This view is often framed in moral terms, emphasizing compassion and the idea that people should not be punished simply for trying to earn a living. The speaker acknowledges the sincere humanitarian impulse behind this argument but asserts that such an indiscriminate approach would be unwise and unfair.
First, the speaker argues that granting legal status or suspending enforcement without regard to existing laws would send a problematic signal. It would suggest to people who are considering coming to the country illegally that there will be no consequences for that decision. The speaker warns that this could lead to a surge in illegal immigration as fewer barriers or penalties are perceived to exist, encouraging more individuals to attempt entry or stay despite being in violation of the law.
Second, the speaker emphasizes the existence of a global queue or waiting process for legal entry. By offering widespread legal status or de facto amnesty, the policy would overlook or sideline the millions of people around the world who are currently waiting their turn to come to the country through legal channels. This aspect highlights a sense of fairness and order in immigration policy, underscoring that legal pathways and timelines are in place for a reason and should be respected.
Third, the speaker reiterates a fundamental principle about national sovereignty and governance. The United States, like all nations, has the right and obligation to control its borders and to establish laws governing residency and citizenship. This point frames immigration policy as a matter of sovereign rights and societal rules that nations set to maintain order, security, and the integrity of their legal framework.
In sum, the speaker presents a cautious stance against broad, indiscriminate legalization or halting deportations, arguing that such measures would be unwise and unfair, could encourage more illegal immigration, would disregard the legal processes that many people are patiently awaiting, and would conflict with the nation’s right and obligation to regulate entry and residency.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: For example, there are those in the immigrants' rights community who have argued passionately that we should simply provide those who are illegally with legal status or at least ignore the laws on the books and put an end to deportation until we have better laws. And often, this argument is framed in moral terms. Why should we punish people who are just trying to earn a living? I recognize the sense of compassion that drives this argument, but I believe such an indiscriminate approach would be both unwise and unfair. It would suggest to those think thinking about coming here illegally that there will be no repercussions for such a decision, and this could lead to a surge in more illegal immigration.
And it would also ignore the millions of people around the world who are waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately, our nation, like all nations, has the right and obligation to control its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship.

Doge revealed that immigration granted work authorization documents to illegals just five months after their asylum applications. This allowed them to work while awaiting asylum decisions, sometimes for years. The immigration department mailed them Social Security numbers without interviews or proof of identity.
According to Doge, 270,000 new aliens received Social Security numbers in 2021, 590,000 in 2022, 964,000 in 2023, and 2,100,000 in 2024. Doge also found that 1,300,000 aliens are receiving Medicaid and that millions obtained driver's licenses. Doge claims some registered and voted. The speaker contrasts this with claims that Musk is destroying Social Security and cutting Medicaid, arguing he is weeding out those who don't qualify.

Speaker 0: Fox to reveal what's really going on. Doge exposed our immigration asylum disaster. That was the tip of the iceberg. Now, here's the story. Doge has found that immigration gave a work authorization document to illegals just five months after they filed for asylum.
That document allowed them to work while they waited to hear whether their asylum request had been accepted or denied. So, they could work as an illegal knowing it would take years before their case was heard. The immigration department mailed them a social security number. No interview. No proof of identity.
They put it in the mail. Here's your number. In 2021, Doe says 270,000 new aliens were issued Social Security numbers, 590,000 in 2022, '9 hundred and '60 '4 thousand in 2023, and 2,100,000 in '24 right before Biden left office. Doge also discovered that 1,300,000 aliens are now receiving Medicaid. Millions received driver's licenses.
Some registered to vote and Doge says some actually did vote. Try and square that against Democrat claims that Musk is destroying social security and cutting Medicaid. He's not destroying. He's weeding out people who don't qualify. Who is really guilty of misinformation in this case?
It is not Elon Musk.

Elon Musk: “Mass immigration is insane and will lead to the destruction of any country that allows unfettered mass immigration — That country will simply cease to exist... A country is it's people, not it's geography. This is a fundamental concept.” https://t.co/EdWJ4rMjR1
Video Transcript AI Summary
Mass immigration will destroy any country that allows it, causing that country to cease to exist. This is due to the numbers: with 8 billion people in the world, even a few percent moving to a country of 50 million, 60 million, or even 350 million, would change it fundamentally. A country is not its geography, but its people. If the people of Italy were teleported to the United States, it would still be Italy. Conversely, if a large number of people from elsewhere were teleported to Italy, replacing the original population, the geographic region would no longer be Italy.

Speaker 0: The mass immigration is insane and will lead to the destruction of any country that allows unfettered mass immigration. That country will simply cease to exist. At the end of the day, it is a numbers game, a numbers situation. If there are 8,000,000,000 people in the world and let's say you're a country of, you know, 50,000,000, 60 million or, you know, for a medium sized country, but even for a country like The United States which is three fifty million, given that there are 8,000,000,000 people in the world, it only takes a few percent of the rest of the world to move to the country to where it is no longer that country. A country is not its geography, a country is its people.
This is a fundamental concept that is really obvious. And if if you took the the people of Italy and and you teleported the the the people of Italy to say some part of The United States, it would still be Italy. But if you teleported a bunch of people from some other part of the world to Italy where they're telling people no longer because they've been teleported to America, then the geographic region would no longer be Italy. It would be that other country. A country is its people, not its geography.

Bret Baier’s full interview with Elon Musk and @DOGE: https://t.co/7KmRs8UJq2
Video Transcript AI Summary
Doge aims to cut the deficit by $1 trillion by reducing waste and fraud, targeting a 15% reduction in federal spending. Astonishingly, billions are wasted casually, like a billion-dollar charge for a simple online survey. Doge aims to cut waste by $4 billion daily and publishes findings on doge.gov for transparency.
A key project involves digitizing the government retirement process, currently a paper-based system housed in a mine with 400 million documents. The goal is to transform it into an online system, processing retirements in days instead of months.
Doge is also addressing IT issues, including outdated systems and cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Social Security is a focus, aiming to prevent fraud and improve service, after discovering 40% of calls to change direct deposit information are fraudulent. The team is working to ensure the solvency of the American government.
The federal government has 4.6 million credit cards for 2.3 million employees, and the team is working to reduce the number of cards. There is only one bank account used to disperse all monies that go out of the federal government. The team is working to apply public company standards to the federal government.

Speaker 0: Disparate.
Speaker 1: Thanks for having us and doing this. I know there's a lot of interest in this. You know, first, let me start with you, Elon. What are the what are the budgetary savings goals, and and how much do you think you've achieved so far?
Speaker 2: Our our goal is to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars. So, from a nominal deficit of 2,000,000,000,000 to try to cut the deficit in half to 1,000,000,000,000, or looked at it in total federal spending to drop the federal spending from 7,000,000,000,000 to 6,000,000,000,000. We wanna reduce the spending by eliminating waste and fraud, reduce the spending by fifth 15%, which seems really quite achievable. The government is not not efficient, and there's a lot of lot of waste and fraud. So, we feel confident that a 15% reduction can can be done without affecting any of of the critical government services.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to all the guys
Speaker 2: making it better.
Speaker 1: And talk to all the guys here about the specifics. But for you, what's the most astonishing thing you found out in this process?
Speaker 2: The sheer amount of waste and fraud in the government. It is astonishing. It's mind blowing. Just we routinely encounter wastes of a billion dollars or more casually. You know, for example, like the simple the simple survey that was literally 10 question survey that you could do with SurveyMonkey cost about $10,000 was the government was being charged almost a billion dollars for that.
For just the survey? A billion dollars for for a simple online survey. Do you like the national park? And then there appeared to be no feedback loop for what would be done with that survey. So the survey would just go to nothing.
Speaker 1: It was like a time. You technically are a special government employee, and you're supposed to be a hundred and thirty days. Are you going to continue past that, or do you think that's the what you're gonna do? Or Well, I I
Speaker 2: think we will have accomplished most of the work required to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars within that time frame.
Speaker 1: So in that time frame, a hundred and days. And and the process is a report at some point, a hundred
Speaker 2: days or Not really a report. We we are cutting the waste and fraud in real time. So every day like that passes, our goal is to reduce the the waste and fraud by $4,000,000,000 a day, every day, seven days a week. And so far, we are succeeding.
Speaker 1: And we're gonna talk of the specifics, but there there obviously are Doge critics who are reading all kinds of stuff. Obviously, lawmakers on the other side of the aisle are attacking you. And he they characterize the approach as this, fire, ready, and then aim. And how do you approach that? How do you respond to that?
Speaker 2: Well, I I do agree that we actually wanna be careful in the cuts. So we want to measure twice, if not thrice, and cut once. And, actually, that is that is our approach. They may characterize it as shooting from the hip, but it is anything but that, which is not to say that we make we don't make mistakes. If we were to approach this with the standard of making no mistakes at all, that would be like saying you someone in baseball's gonna bat a thousand.
That's impossible. So when we do make mistakes, we correct them quickly, and we we move on.
Speaker 1: Some people say this shouldn't take a rocket scientist. Steve Davis, you are a rocket scientist. Used to be. Yeah. Know.
And now, essentially, you're the chief operating officer of Doge, day to day operations. Fair to say?
Speaker 3: Yeah. Part part of the Doge team.
Speaker 1: What so how did you end up here? What's the biggest challenge you see?
Speaker 3: The reason I'm here, which is probably for many, is that I think the goal is incredibly inspiring. I think most of the tax payers in the country would agree that in order to have the the country going bankrupt would be a very bad thing, and therefore, the country going not bankrupt is a good thing, that all of us are willing to kind of put our lives on hold in order to do. I think the thing that's special right now is we actually believe there's a chance to succeed, that there's an administration that's supportive, and a great cabinet and just a great group that will actually make success a possible outcome. And I think that's given the inspiring mission and given the, nonzero chance of success, it it was worth down.
Speaker 2: I just just like to sort of re upsize that point. The success of those is only possible with president Trump and with the outstanding cabinet that he selected. It would be impossible without the support of the president and the cabinet.
Speaker 1: But you're finding the money. I mean, it's big numbers. Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah. Like Elon said, the minimum impulse bid is often a billion dollars. So for example, the $830,000,000, which was the online survey, that's an enormous amount of money. That wouldn't have been found if the Doge team wasn't working with it, in that case, the Department of Interior. But then taking it one step further, Doge then publish publishes these things on our website for maximum transparency.
So now the general public it would have been impossible for the general public to have seen that. Now anyone can just log in to doge.gov anytime and see these payments as they're not yet in real time. They're close, but they'll probably be in real time within the next few weeks.
Speaker 1: But the process still involves congress. Right? At some level?
Speaker 2: We're trying to keep congress as informed as possible, but it it the law does say that money needs to be spent correctly. It should not be spent fraudulently or wastefully. It's not contrary to congress to avoid waste and fraud. It is consistent with the law and consistent with congress, and we've seen actually great support at least from the Republican side of the of the house and occasionally some Democrats too. You know, it's nice to see people cross the aisle once in a while.
But usually, when they attack Doge, they never attack any of the specifics. So they'll they'll say what we're doing is somehow unconstitutional or legal or whatever. We're like, well, which line of the cost savings do you disagree with? And they can't point to any. And we list them all on on doge.gov and and the doge handle on x.
And you'll see just outrageous things, one outrageous thing after another.
Speaker 1: Joe Gabbian, besides Elon, you're one of several billionaires here, cofounder of Airbnb, and you wanted to help out.
Speaker 4: I bumped into Anthony Dewan probably back in February, and they told me something about a a mine that was dealt with retirement. And they said that he needs somebody to help out to fix retirement in the government. I I love the challenge, I jumped on board. And it turns out there is actually a mine in Pennsylvania that houses every paper document for the retirement process in the government. Now picture this.
This this giant cave has 22,000 filing cabinets stacked 10 high to house 400,000,000 pieces of paper. It's a process that started in the nineteen fifties and largely hasn't changed in the last seventy years. And so as he dug into it, we found retirement cases that had so much paper, they had to fit it on a shipping pallet. So the process takes many months, and we're gonna make it just many days.
Speaker 1: Will it be digitized or how
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
Speaker 5: So this will be an
Speaker 4: online digital process that will take just a few days at most. And I really think, you know, it's an injustice to civil servants who are subjected to these processes that are older than the age of half the people watching your show tonight. So we really believe that the government can have an Apple Store like experience, beautifully designed, great, easier experience, modern systems.
Speaker 1: Because right now, it's by hand.
Speaker 2: Yes. The the the retirement process is all by paper, literally with people carrying paper and manila envelopes in into this gigantic mine.
Speaker 1: So they can't retire more than a certain number every month?
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 5: About about 8,000 a month.
Speaker 2: That that that's how we the reason we discovered it was we were saying like, well, let's encourage voluntary retire retirement. That's the most you could be that could they could do is 8,000 a month. And and even don't know what circumstances it can take six to nine months just to just to have your time and paperwork processed, and they often get the calculations wrong. So like, well, why would it take so long to retire? And they're like, well, because of the mind.
You're like, what do mean a mind? What's a mind got to do with retiring? And that's where we discovered that all the retirement stuff is done by still done by paper in a process that looks identical to what occurred in the nineteen fifties. Like, we took a snapshot of the mind when it first started in the fifties to today. It looks the same.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. So how long do you think it'll take take to turn over?
Speaker 4: We're working as fast as we can. Probably next couple of months, we'll have this this overhauled. And, you know, I really think, again, like, why are we subjecting our federal workers to processes that they actually have to go through a training just to retire from the government. There's a whole training program that people have to go through in order to retire. I I think we can do better for them.
Speaker 1: Aram Mogadasi, a Doge engineer. Yeah. You go into these places, one of the more than a dozen engineers, first people to go into the agencies and view the computer datasets. Tell me what you're finding. And for people who don't understand how that process works, explain it for them.
Speaker 0: Yeah. I'll say the first thing that got me really excited about Doge was learning basically, the state of government computers. By some estimates, government IT costs about a hundred billion dollars, and it's funding systems that are over 50 years old in the case of something like Social Security or the IRS. So really critical systems are are old. They cost a lot of money to maintain, and, they could be the the efforts to improve them are often very delayed.
So I I thought I'm a software engineer, that that maybe could make a difference here, and, that's that's really what inspired me at a high level.
Speaker 1: There's lot of history about Social Security and a lot of words about it from here's what Democrats have been saying about
Speaker 3: It's absurd that Elon Musk is trying to eliminate billions of dollars from Social Security.
Speaker 0: Elon Musk and president Trump have set their sights on cutting Social Security.
Speaker 1: Their goal is clear, destroy Social Security from within. You're in the building. I mean, you're in the computers. What's happening there? What are you doing?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 0: It doesn't line up with my experience on the ground. And I'll say the two improvements that we're trying to make to Social Security are helping people that legitimately get benefits, protect them from fraud that they experience every day on a routine basis, and also make the experience better. And I'll give you one one example is at Social Security, one of the first things we learned is that they get phone calls every day of people trying to change direct deposit information. So when you want to change your bank account, you can call Social Security. We learned 40% of the phone calls that they get are from fraudsters.
Speaker 1: Forty percent?
Speaker 0: That's right. Almost half.
Speaker 2: Yes. And and they they steal people's social security is what happens. Is they they call in, they say, they claim to be a retiree, then they they and they convince the post the Social Security person on the phone to change the where the where the money is flowing. It it actually goes to some fraudster. This is happening all day every day.
And and then and then somebody doesn't receive their Social Security is because of of all the the forward loopholes in the Social Security system.
Speaker 1: How do you reassure people that what you all are doing is not gonna affect their benefits?
Speaker 2: No. In fact, what what we're doing will help their benefits. Legitimate people, as a result of the work of Doge, will receive more social security, not less. Wanna emphasize that. As a result of the work of Doge, legitimate recipients of social security will receive more money, not less money.
Speaker 1: Alright.
Speaker 2: And and and and let the record show that I said this and the it will be proven out to be true. Let's let's check back on this in the future.
Speaker 1: So it's Washington Post. The Social Security Administration website crashed four times in ten days this month because the servers were overloaded, blocking millions of retirees and disabled veterans from logging into their online accounts. Freaked people out. Is it is that gonna change?
Speaker 2: Yes. We're gonna make sure that the website stays online.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, but is it a result of going in there No. Or something you're doing?
Speaker 3: It's No. No. The the amount of issues that were the social security system are are enormous. As an example, there are over 15,000,000 people that are 20 that are marked as alive in the social security system.
Speaker 1: And that's an accurate figure.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: Correct. 15,000,000.
Speaker 3: Correct. This has been something that's been identified as a problem. Again, preexisting problems since February at least from an IG report. So there are some great people working at the social security administration Social Security Administration that found this 02/2008 and nothing was done. And so 15 to 20,000,000 social security numbers that were clearly fraudulent were floating around that can be used only for bad intentions.
There'd be no way to use those for good intentions. And so what one of the things the Doge team is doing is carefully and very methodically looking at those and making sure that any fraudulent ones are eliminated.
Speaker 1: Brett Smith, working at HHS, and obviously another element is Medicare and Medicaid, NIH. What are you finding?
Speaker 6: Yeah. Well, I'd say there's a couple of things we're really committed to in our work at HHS. Number one, making sure we continue to have the best biomedical research in the world. And number two, making sure which president Trump has said over and over again that we 100% protect Medicare and Medicaid, but there's a lot of opportunity. So if I take NIH as an example, today, if you're an NIH researcher and you get a hundred dollar grant at your university, today, you get to spend 60 of that and your university spends 40 of that.
The policy that we're proposing to make is that you get to spend 85 of that and your university spends 15. So that's more money going directly to the scientists who are discovering new cures. Another example at NIH is today they have 27 different centers. They got created over time by congress and they're typically by disease state or body system. There's 700 different IT systems today at NIH.
Speaker 1: Seven hundred different IT systems.
Speaker 2: IT software systems. They don't connect.
Speaker 6: They can't speak to each other.
Speaker 1: So they don't talk to one.
Speaker 6: They have 27 different CIOs. And so when you think about making great medical discoveries, you have to connect the data.
Speaker 1: Time out. Time out. You said 27 different chief information officers?
Speaker 6: Correct. Correct.
Speaker 2: And most of them are nontechnical.
Speaker 1: So there's a lot there.
Speaker 6: There's a there's a lot of opportunity. It will make science better, not worse.
Speaker 2: And when I say that our job is tech support, I really mean it. Yeah. We have to fix the computers. If the computers can't talk to each other, you can't get research done. If the computers can't go stay online, people won't receive their social security.
So what we have here are a bunch of failing computer systems that are preventing people from receiving their their benefits, that are preventing people from preventing research from happening, that are, extremely vulnerable to fraud, and we're fixing it.
Speaker 1: And does that include AI? Does that include kind of changing the system overall? That's, I guess, what people are afraid of is they don't know
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: What this is all looking like, and is it gonna affect me in the long term?
Speaker 2: It's gonna affect them. It's gonna affect people very positively. So the the changes that we're doing here will ensure the solvency of the American government, of the American of of The United States Of America. This is what this is what we're trying to do is ensure that people do receive their benefits in the future. And you can only receive your benefits if the if the if the country is operating in a in a healthy and competent way.
Speaker 1: Anthony Armstrong, Doge, office of personnel management, Morgan Stanley banker, m and a guy. Yeah. You know money, and this is a lot of money sloshing around.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of money sloshing around. It's a lot of money sloshing out the door. And if you look at the federal government and the way the workforce works, it's really a one way ratchet over decades.
Speaker 1: You It's only going up.
Speaker 5: It's only going up. You never you never take it away. So that leaves you with duplicative functions. It leaves you with overstaffing, and it leaves you with functions in the wrong places. So a couple of examples, duplicative functions.
Brad mentioned 27 CIOs. If you had kept going with Brad, he probably he would talk about the communications office. I think you've got forty forty distinct communications offices in HHS. Yeah. 40?
Yeah. Yeah. And that's not unusual by by the way. Multiple offices like It's like anyone healthy. This is not about the employees there.
There's many many hardworking, well meaning people who who took jobs. These jobs were out there. They applied for them. They took them. They're doing what's there.
It's just that they're duplicating the effort of 40 offices. So you've got that. You've got over staffing. A good example of over staffing would be the IRS has got 1,400 people who are dedicated to provisioning laptops and and cell phones. So if you join the IRS, you get a laptop and a cell phone, you're provisioned.
So if each of those IRS officers or employees provisioned two employees per day, you could provision the entire IRS in a little more than a month. So 12 times a year
Speaker 2: 1,400 people whose only job it is to give out a laptop and a phone.
Speaker 5: Right. The the whole IRS could be handled once a month. So that doesn't that doesn't make any sense. And president Trump's been very clear. It's scalpel, not hatchet, and that's the way it's it's getting done.
And then once those decisions are made, there's a very heavy focus on being generous, being caring, being compassionate, and treating everyone with dignity and respect. And and if you look at how people have started to leave the government, it is largely through voluntary means. There's voluntary early retirement. There's voluntary separation payments. We put in place deferred resignation, the eight month severance program.
So there's a very heavy bias towards programs that are long dated, that are generous, that allow people to exit and go and get a new job in the private sector. And you've you've heard a lot of a lot of news about rifts about people getting fired. At at this moment in time, less than point one five not 1.5, less than point one five of the federal workforce has actually been given a riff notice.
Speaker 1: So So they've selected if they're a leader.
Speaker 2: It it is Basically, almost no one's gotten fired That's what we're saying.
Speaker 1: Tom Krausz, working at treasury, you are having access to the payment system, oversees all the outgoing payments. Essentially, payments were going places we didn't know where they were going. Right?
Speaker 7: Yeah. Unfortunately, that's the case, Brett. You know, as an ex CFO of a big public tech company, really what we're doing is we're applying public company standards to the federal government. And it is alarming how the financial operations and financial management is set up today. There is actually really only one bank account that's used to disperse all monies that go out of the federal government.
Speaker 1: Time out. One bank account.
Speaker 2: It's a big one.
Speaker 1: It's a
Speaker 3: big one. It's a
Speaker 7: big one. One. A couple weeks ago, had $800,000,000,000 in it, but it's the the treasury general account. So when you hear, you know, some of my colleagues here, what they're talking about in terms of the fraud, you have to ask, well, why is this allowed to happen at a financial level? Well, it's actually quite simple but alarming.
The treasury up until now, and thanks to president Trump, we're fixing this. In fact, there's an executive order that he just signed, the other day, which is protecting America's bank account because it really is the taxpayers' money. One, we're changing the culture. The culture has been not a lot of caring and not a lot of commitment to doing what's right relative to financial operations. There's a $500,000,000,000 of fraud every year.
There's hundreds of billion dollars of improper payments, and we can't pass an audit. The the consolidated financial report is produced by treasury, and we cannot pass it on. We have material weaknesses. What that means is that if I was a public company CFO, I would effectively be removed. I couldn't file financial statements.
I couldn't issue securities. Can't on. Can't it on.
Speaker 2: Right. The the federal government cannot pass an order. It's impossible. In fact, the the in order to pass an order, you need the information necessary to pass an order. You need to have the payment codes.
You need to have the payment explanation, and you need to have a person you can contact to understand why that payment was made. None of those things were mandatory Yeah. Until until just recently, just a few weeks ago. In fact, maybe last week?
Speaker 7: Yeah. We're serving 580 plus agencies. And up until very recently, effectively, they could say make the payment and treasury just sent it out as fast as possible. No verification. And so what we're doing is what any household would do.
But imagine you're a household, you have a bank account, everyone has an ATM card connected to that account, everyone has a checkbook connected to that account. It's not just your children. It's not just your parents. It's your in laws. It's your extended family.
And they all can go to the account and disperse funds. No questions asked. No justification. No verification.
Speaker 1: Tyler, Hasson, interior department, you're a form former oil company CEO. You're reviewing contracts before they're approved for funding. What what are you finding?
Speaker 8: Well, Elon and Steve kinda stole my thunder a little bit, but I actually found that customer service survey contract. I actually have an example of one right here. I could have done this in high school. And I I found it
Speaker 2: It's that bad.
Speaker 8: I found it on the weekends because under the Biden administration, there was no departmental oversight within the Department of Interior whatsoever. None. We are now reviewing every single contract, every single grant. And when things come to my attention that don't make sense, I'm bringing him to secretary Bergam, and he has been fantastic. He's he's a businessman.
He's very supportive of Doge. It's been wonderful
Speaker 2: to work with Is
Speaker 1: the battle between government of decades and decades of buildup and business, which you guys are, is that like a train hitting each other? I mean, it it seems like it's pretty disruptive. Well, this is a revolution.
Speaker 2: And I think it it might be the might be the biggest revolution in government since the original revolution. But at the end of the day, America is gonna be in much better shape. America will be solvent. The critical programs that people depend upon will work, and it's gonna be a fantastic future. And but are we gonna get a lot of complaints along the way?
Absolutely. You know, one the things I learned at PayPal was the you know, who complains the loudest and the with the the most amount of fake righteous indignation? The fraudsters. That's it's a tell. You know these NGOs that are crazy?
Like the the $2,000,000,000 to Stacey Abrams NGO that basically didn't exist and suddenly gets $2,000,000,000 awarded from the federal government. She has why. And there are many such cases like that.
Speaker 1: I think that most people, common sense wise, would say the fraud's gotta end.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: They're concerned about the 94 year old mother who skips a check or somehow doesn't get what she's supposed to get.
Speaker 2: Right. And what we're trying to say is actually the that that the 94 year old grandmother is is actually, as a result of Joe Doge's work, going to get her check. She's not going to be robbed by fraudsters like she's getting robbed today. And the solvency of the of the federal government will ensure that she continues to receive those social security checks that Medicare continues to work without which we're all doomed. And the reason we're doing this is because if if we don't do it, America's gonna go insolvent.
We're gonna go bankrupt, and nobody's gonna get anything.
Speaker 1: Why are you guys all doing it? I mean, you can pipe up, but it you don't have to be here. Right? I mean, you don't you don't have to be doing this.
Speaker 7: I have four blessed with four beautiful children, my wife and I, But we have a real fiscal crisis, and and this is not sustainable. And what's worse, back to my children and everyone else's children, is we are burdening them with that debt, and it's only gonna grow.
Speaker 1: Steve, there's not a lot of hierarchy here. You guys are kind of all approaching it in different, you know, silos, but with the same kind of goal. Right? I mean,
Speaker 3: this is really Silicon Valley private sector colliding with government. Yeah. Exactly. And we're headed in a bad path, but then the chance of success exists. And just the one that just is in my head right now, which is a fairly mundane one, but I think is very illustrative is credit cards.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
Speaker 3: There are in the in the federal government around 4,600,000 credit cards for around 2.3 to 2,400,000 employees. This doesn't make sense. Right. And so one of the things all of the teams have have worked on is we've worked with the agencies and said, do you need all of these credit cards? Are they being used?
Can you tell us physically where they are? I hope they're getting frequent flyers. Actually, on a different note, the rewards program the federal government has is actually not very good. It costs. That's a whole other It's a negotiation.
Right. Yeah. Exactly. But so far, the teams have worked together, and they've reduced it from 4,600,000.0 to to 4,300,000.0. So So we're taking we're taking it easy.
Speaker 7: Yeah. But but
Speaker 2: clearly, there should not be, you know, more there should be more credit cards than there are people.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Joe, middle level employees, are they seeing a benefit to being empowered by taking out bureaucracy? I mean
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I mean, I think what you're seeing is taking the best Silicon Valley in the business world and bringing it into the government. We're bringing the best practices and the best methodologies. And people are inspired, right, especially on the retirement process, which I can speak to. They've been trying to modernize and get off of paper since early two thousands, very unsuccessfully.
Every attempt has gone over budget, and been canceled, because it hasn't been successful. And so, you know, I showed up and I feel like I'm here because it's an interesting problem. We can use design to solve it and good engineering and really create a better experience for everybody.
Speaker 2: They were we're talking about elementary financial controls that are necessary for any company to function. So, like, if if these can if if if the federal government if if if a commercial company operated the way the federal government does, then it would be go immediately go bankrupt. It would be delisted. The officers would be arrested. And the changes we're putting in place will enable the federal government to pass an audit.
It will enable enable taxpayers to know where the money is going and know that their hard earned tax tax dollars are being spent well. But the ways that the government is defrauded is that the computer systems don't talk to each other. So if the computer systems systems don't talk to each other, then it you you can you can exploit that gap and and forces exploit that exploit that gap, take advantage. If, for example, there were over $300,000,000 of small business administration loans that has been given out to people under the age of 11.
Speaker 3: Well, actually, to add to this, 300,000,000 under the age of 11 and over three hundred million to over the age of 120.
Speaker 1: Definitely Small business loans.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 2: The the oldest American is a hundred and 14. So it's safe to say if their age is 15 or above, they're they're fake, or they should be in the Guinness Guinness Book of World Records. And we we should not be giving out loans to babies. So the youngest recipient of a small business administration loan is a nine month year old, which is a very very cautious baby we're talking about here. So obviously, it was just fraudulent.
And what they and and they do terrible things. They actually will see that a a kid's been born. They will steal that kid's social security number and then take out a loan, and and leave that kid with a with a bad credit rating. There was literally a baby. The terrible things are being done is what we're saying.
And how? We're stopping these terrible things.
Speaker 1: And you can stop it?
Speaker 4: I mean Well, we are stopping
Speaker 2: The reason this is happening
Speaker 5: is because the the two systems are not talking to each other.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 5: Right? And so you don't know at the small business administration that you're giving a loan to a nine month old, which happened in one case, because you're not cross referencing that with the social security administration data that has birth dates. So that very, very simple fix Yes. Eliminates tremendous fraud. And and that there are multiple systems across the government where the systems are not speaking with one another.
And if you just solve that simple problem, you would solve a huge amount of fraud.
Speaker 1: Are you surprised? One of ways
Speaker 2: that like, one one of the the key tricks that the fraudsters pull is that they will use the fact that someone is mocked as live and as as sort of just that that Social Security number is mocked as live in Social Security, and then then get disability and unemployment insurance for a dead person. Because the databases don't talk to each other, all they got was from Social Security is like, is this person alive? Yes. They're not they're not alive. It's falsely marked person is falsely marked as alive in social security, but they didn't but but that first a fraudster can now get unemployment and disability for from a dead person.
This is happening all the time at scale.
Speaker 1: Are you surprised at some of the legal efforts and some of the judges that have weighed in? There's about eight or 10 now of these cases that are at least temporary holds. They're being challenged by the DOJ. Right. Are you surprised by that pushback?
Speaker 2: Well, it's the the DC circuit is notorious for having a very far left bias. And when you look at the people close to some of these judges, who who who are where are they working? Are they working at these NGOs? Are they getting the the other ones getting this money? Does that seem like system that lacks corruption?
It sounds like corruption to me.
Speaker 1: Last thing. Do you guys all see this as a patriotic duty? I mean, is that really what this is about? It's essential. Very
Speaker 8: much. I do. A %. I I was running five businesses in Houston, and and I left that. I left great people to do this.
And my wonderful wife said, go for it. And here I am. But I I feel like this is me giving back to the country.
Speaker 2: If if we don't do this, we're sunk. The ship unless unless this exercise is successful, the ship of America will sink. That's why we're doing it.
Speaker 1: Well, gentlemen, I really appreciate the time today. And hopefully, it took some of the myth and mystery out of Doge and what's happening behind the scenes.
Speaker 2: Thank you.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller on @DOGE’s Audit of the IRS: “We are talking about performing a basic anti-fraud review to ensure that people are not engaging in large scale theft of federal taxpayer benefits.” https://t.co/cD3nYOAUPh
Video Transcript AI Summary
I want to assure taxpayers that we are not randomly sifting through their private records. We're performing a basic anti-fraud review to prevent large-scale theft of federal taxpayer benefits, such as billions in child tax credits paid to illegal aliens.
The IRS has been weaponized against the American people for years through politically based audits and leaks of taxpayer information. We are restoring neutrality, ethics, and security controls at the IRS. A major project involves upgrading IT systems to protect taxpayer information from theft by criminals or foreign governments.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Can you give assurances to people who faithfully pay their taxes in this country? The doses are just going to go randomly sifting through the records and maybe come across the personal private records of a lot of Americans.
Speaker 1: I can give absolutely a % insurance. I give you complete and total assurance on that point. We are talking about performing a basic anti fraud review to ensure that people are not engaging in large scale theft of federal taxpayer benefits. I mean, for example, we pay billions of dollars a year in child tax credit payments to illegal aliens, billions with a b. So these are systematic programmatic reforms that we're talking about here.
And as far as protecting the secret the secrecy of tax records, the IRS has been weaponized at the career level against the American people for years now. This has been one of the most invasive arms of the federal government, engaging in capricious and politically based audits, leaking taxpayer information for political reasons. We are restoring the neutrality. We are restoring ethics. We are restoring security controls at IRS.
In fact, one of the big projects that DOSIA is gonna be working on is upgrading IT systems and software so that our taxpayer information cannot be stolen by criminals or foreign governments.

If someone killed your pet, you'd want revenge too. The situation with the squirrel is outrageous. In America, the government can invade your home, take your pets, and even kill them. If they can do that to animals, what could they do to people? The squirrel had a loving bond with its owner, and it was clearly a pet. It's legal to have exotic pets in Texas, so why kill the squirrel? Some people even celebrated its death, which is absurd. Most compassionate people find this terrible. We need to stand up for our rights and vote for change, even if it’s just for the sake of a beloved pet.

Speaker 1: No. It's Why
Speaker 0: would you kill that cute little squirrel that was obviously a pet and trained from the time it was a baby? Yeah. If you see the interaction that guy has with that squirrel, it was wonderful.
Speaker 1: It was really cute. Yes. Absolutely. The the there's it it was just obviously it was a blood pet pet squirrel, and raccoon too, and doing no harm, and the the the government comes in, barges into the guy's house, takes his pets, and kills them. And, you know, I I think this should this should really get people out there mobilized, frankly, because, you know, everything you say that, like, the John Wick movie where John Wick's, like, you know, he he he wants to he just wants peace, like, you know, in in the in the John Wick movie.

Yeah. There was nothing wrong with that. And in Texas, it's totally legal. You can have a fucking zebra out here. You can have whatever you want.
And that's the argument for freedom. What the fuck is wrong with you? Why are you killing that squirrel? It doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then to add insult to injury, there were a bunch of people on the left who were, like, actually posting that they're glad that's MAGA squirrel got killed, which is fucking

Video Transcript AI Summary
All Americans are concerned about the high number of illegal immigrants entering the country. These individuals often take jobs that could be filled by citizens or legal immigrants and place a burden on public services. Our administration is taking strong action to secure the borders by hiring more border guards, increasing deportations of criminal aliens, and cracking down on illegal hiring practices. We aim to expedite the deportation process for illegal aliens arrested for crimes and improve identification of illegal workers, as recommended by the commission led by former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan. While we value our immigrant heritage, it is essential to uphold our immigration laws and prevent their abuse.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: All Americans, not only in the states most heavily affected, but in every place in this country are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers. That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by borrowing welfare benefits to illegal aliens. In the budget I will present to you, we will try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal aliens who are arrested for crimes, to better identify illegal aliens in the workplace as recommended by the commission headed by former congresswoman Barbara Jordan.
We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop it.
