I've always been interested in history, especially the Roman Empire. Recently, I learned about burnt scrolls from Pompeii that no one could read. A competition was launched using CT scans to find writing in these scrolls, and I was eager to participate. I’ve been working on this project during my free time, using my laptop and some extra computers. After many hours of searching, I received a message about a new piece of the scroll. When I analyzed it, I discovered three Greek letters, marking the first time we detected writing. The word found was "prophoros," meaning purple, which was exciting because it has meaning. This project, aided by modern AI, is allowing us to read entire paragraphs from the scrolls, and the attention it has received has been overwhelming yet rewarding. The support from the University of Nebraska has been crucial in encouraging bold thinking in my work.

Speaker 0: So I've always been interested in history. Growing up, I learned Latin. I was never that good at it, but I was always kind of into that sort of stuff. Read a lot about the Roman Empire and things. And one day, I was just listening to a podcast back in March.
It was with Nat Friedman. He just kind of got on the podcast, explained, like, there are these burnt up scrolls that were buried in the Pompeii eruption. No one knows how to read them, but some professors have created CT scans of these scrolls, and they uploaded the data on the Internet as a competition to see who could find writing inside of these scrolls. And when I heard that, I was just immediately, like, oh my goodness. This is such a cool project.
I have to work on this. I just went home from work that day at the end of the day, and I've been working on it evenings and weekends ever since. I run most of the things from my laptop. It's just a normal MacBook. Don't worry.
But then I've just got, like, 5 surplus computers in here. This is what I do most of my work from. The Wake School and just the University of Nebraska as a whole has provided a great educational background where I can then, you know, take these skills that I've learned and apply them to problems like this. I just spend hours upon hours staring at flattened pieces of the scroll like this, trying to find these patterns which are, part of the writing. At the start of the challenge, we had not been able to find any writing at all within these scrolls.
There are 100 of these scrolls that are from the mansion. We've scanned a couple of them, and no one had been able to find any writing in them using these methods. Late one Saturday night, I was sitting at a party at a friend's house in Omaha, and I get a text from another person on the challenge team, and he says, hey, I've just uploaded this new kind of piece of the of the scroll. You should take a look at it. I remotely accessed my computer, I type into it like, please run the algorithm on this new piece of scroll.
And then I just kind of start it. I pull out my phone again, just nonchalantly like, hey, I wonder how that went. And there are 3 Greek letters on the screen. The letters I'd never seen before. It was, really cool because it's like, oh my goodness, like we actually detected new writing in the scrolls using AI.
That was the moment I realized like this is actually gonna work. Like we were probably going to read the scrolls. And I completely freaked out. My friends were there and I was cheering, jumping up and down. You know, screaming, crying, all the stuff.
I, you know, took a picture of the results and I sent them to my mom. She called me and she's like, hey, these look great, you know. It was a really special moment. Yeah. So this is the the word that I actually found.
It's right here. It's the word prophoros, which translates to purple. It's the first word we found in the scrolls. It was reviewed by a committee of kind of Greek scholars, but it's the word purple. And I'm glad it's not the word in or the or and that we found first.
We actually found, a word that has meaning. This would not be possible without modern AI and modern scanning text techniques. People wanted to read these books for 100 of years, and this seems like the only way that's where it's really possible to do that. Now we're reading entire paragraphs from the scrolls, and hopefully, we'll be able to read the entire book and read the hundreds of other books that were buried in this condition as well. When we found this first word, you know, we went public with it.
And I think everyone has been very pleasantly surprised by the amount of attention it's gotten. As a college student, it's definitely been overwhelming in the best way possible. But it's been really cool to get to kind of, you know, talk about my findings and, you know, share what I wanna do in the future with so many people. So it's been overwhelming in the best possible way. The University of Nebraska does a really good job of encouraging their students to think boldly, and I think that's played a pivotal role in my, work on this project.

I’m keeping an eye on the Democrats who are vocal about Musk and DOGE. These career politicians, earning between $174K and $400K, have net worths in the tens of millions, which raises questions about their accountability. I’ve listed their estimated wealth, and it’s clear they’re upset because Musk and DOGE are shining a light on waste and corruption. If they’re truly transparent, they shouldn’t be worried. Their reactions suggest they have a lot to explain.
@Sassafrass_84 - Sassafrass84
Keep an eye on them. 👇 These are the Democrats screaming the loudest about Musk and DOGE. I don’t want to hear another peep from these career politicians throwing tantrums over accountability. These are the same people who’ve been living large off taxpayer dollars while pretending to fight for "the little guy." Their salaries range from $174K to $400K, yet somehow their net worths are in the tens of millions. How does that math work? Spoiler: it doesn’t. Audit them all, DOGE. Let’s see how deep the swamp really goes: • Ilhan Omar: $83M • Chuck Schumer: $75M • Elizabeth Warren: $73M • Adam Schiff: $60M • Jamie Raskin: $20M • Hakeem Jeffries: $17M • Cory Booker: $14M • Jasmine Crockett: $10M These are the people crying foul because Musk and DOGE are exposing waste, fraud, and corruption. They’re not mad about accountability—they’re mad because the spotlight is finally on them. If you’re worth tens of millions on a public servant’s salary, you better believe we’re going to ask questions. And if you’ve got nothing to hide, you shouldn’t be worried. But judging by the meltdowns, it looks like they’ve got plenty to explain.

They didn't necessarily tell us what we needed to hear.

American tax dollars funded various projects last year, raising questions about their effectiveness. Examples include grants for drag shows in Ecuador, a butterfly study in Germany, and a Sergeant Pepper's exhibit in Brooklyn. Other projects involved a smart toilet study, research on colonial Mexican soundscapes, and a study on seatbelts and helmets in Ghana (despite existing US data). Funding also went to a Yoko Ono art installation, a Napa Valley walking trail, a Hawaiian farmers market, the Metropolitan Opera's fire suppression system, and a study of Parisian butchers' private language. Additionally, taxpayer money supported a climate futurism conference using the parable of the sower and a study on influencing climate change skeptics. Nearly a billion dollars was spent on border facilities, averaging around $500 per person crossing illegally. Ultimately, the question remains: are these the best uses of taxpayer money?
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: 50 different examples and just try to ask the question, is this the best way to be able to spend America's Dollars? And again, we've all got different perspectives and different ideas on it. I'm just asking a question. For instance, last year, the State Department did a grant to Ecuador to host 12 drag shows in Ecuador with American tax dollars. Now, may have different opinions in this room on drag shows.
I'm just asking the simple question. Is the best use of American tax dollars to actually fund drag shows in Ecuador with US tax dollars? I don't believe that it is. Last year, we actually did a different funding with through the state department that, was actually done. Actually, this was the National Science Foundation.
Excuse me. Strike that. It seems like a state department thing. National Science Foundation last year did a study of butterflies in Europe. So we funded with American taxpayer dollars a butterfly study in Germany where we paid a Swedish scientist to study butterflies in Germany.
I'm not real sure why American tax dollars that was the best use of that, but that was one of the grants that was done last year. Last year, there was also a, NEA grant that was done to set up a display in, Brooklyn for the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band, which by the way is not even an American band. And I'm not sure why we had to pay a federal tax dollars to be able to do that. My simple question is always, why are tax dollars being taken out of Oklahoma to be able to do that? Always popular, we had an almost, well, $350,000 grant to study smart toilets was one of the grants that we actually paid for with our federal tax dollars last year.
We also had a grant that was done studying colonial Mexican soundscapes. I'm sure colonial Mexican soundscapes are fascinating, but we paid for a researcher to travel to Mexico and then to be able to write a series about the sounds of colonial Mexico and how they could be used to be able to influence communities. We, last year, did a study on helmets and seat belts in Ghana To be able to study whether seat belts and helmets were effective for saving lives in Ghana. Can I just go and answer that question for free? Seat belts and helmets are a good idea.
They save lives. Free. I can go ahead and give you that advice. How do I know that? Because we've already spent millions of dollars in other studies here in The United States.
But instead, we spent money in Ghana studying helmets to see if they're actually a good idea there. And amazingly, they discovered, yes, they are. There was also a grant that was done last year. I've got to just walk this one through. This was at the Springfield Museum of Art in Missouri.
There was a grant to be on a display, an installation of the exhibit in the museum called Yoko Ono mend piece. Now let me just read this to you. It's a simple white room where shattered cups and saucers are placed on a table, and participants are asked to mend the fragments together using common household items like twine, glue, scissors, and tape, and the resulting works are displayed on nearby shelves as evidence of the power of collective action. Again, I'm not opposed to fixing broken saucers in a public place and displaying them. All I'm asking is why did Oklahomans work overtime last year to pay their tax bill to fund doing the Yoko Ono white room where people fixed broken saucers?
I I don't have a good answer for that yet, by the way. I'm still trying to be able to get that. If you like wine country, great. You help pay for it. One of the highest income areas in the world is Napa Valley, California.
1 of the highest income areas in the entire world. The good folks of Oklahoma helped pay for a wine pedestrian trail through Napa Valley because apparently, Napa Valley didn't have enough cash to be able to pay for the eight mile walking trail through wine country, some of the most expensive real estate in the entire world. So the taxpayers in Oklahoma had to pay for that wine country tour trail. If you like traveling to Hawaii, enjoy the trip. When you get there, if you go to a farmers market, you'll find out that you helped pay for that farmers market because the farmers market in Hawaii received $3,400,000 to be able to fund the farmers market.
If you go to New York City and pay a very high dollar ticket to get into a private location in the Metropolitan Opera to be able to watch the opera, you will feel safer, I'm sure, when you go to the Metropolitan Opera because almost three quarters of a million dollars was given to the Metropolitan Opera in New York to help them install a new fire suppression system with federal tax dollars. If you like traveling to Paris and you go to a butcher shop in Paris, you may be fascinated to know. Since the thirteenth century, apparently, butchers in Paris have come up with their own private language. It's like a super secret private language among butchers in Paris. Fascinating for the French to study, but unfortunately, the American taxpayers paid for a study of French butchers private language for fear that it is diminishing and fading away.
So the American tax dollars paid for this study in France to study the secret language of butchers in Paris. Can't tell you why. You may know the story of the let me see if I can pull this out. The parable of the sower. It's a very famous biblical story, the parable of the sower.
Well, this particular version of the parable of the sower was actually a little bit different. What your tax dollars paid for is actually an event that was done to teach climate futurism and to be able to use the parable of the sower from the Bible, but to reteach a new religion called Earthseed using the biblical story of the parable of the sower and talking about humanity's destiny to be able to leave Earth for other planets. It wasn't the writing of the book. It was a conference for teachers to make sure teachers know how to be able to teach this new version of the parable of the sower and about the religion of Earth seed to their kids. That was done with your tax dollars.
Not leaving Ghana alone, there was also a study that done in Ghana last year. Not only did one on seat belt studies and helmet studies in Ghana, we also did an interview project that was almost $200,000 in Ghana to interview taxicab drivers and truck drivers to ask them about how difficult driving has become with climate change. If it's harder to drive now in Ghana based on climate change, your tax dollars paid for that. And if you don't like that I'm discussing anything on climate change and you may disagree with that, Well, perfect. Because there was also a fund that was done with your tax dollars in the National Science Foundation to study how to influence people that disagree on the issue of climate change with a study that was done for $400,000 while the study on pluralistic ignorance gaps in climate change and to be able to determine how to speak to people as the study says who are ignorant on climate change and to be able to reeducate them on that.
So if you disagree on this issue, we're also studying how to be able to re educate you on this issue. Last year, we also spent $991,000,000 on soft sided facilities, those are called tents, along our border in Mexico. Now best estimates on this, there's about 2,000,000 people illegally across the border last year. So if you run the numbers on it, we spent somewhere around $500 a person on the tent facility they were processed through just to travel across the border. Listen.
We've got differences of opinion on lots of issues. I'm respectful of that. I understand that people of Oklahoma don't think like people in other areas of the country. I also understand not everybody in Oklahoma thinks the same way, and I'm respectful of that. But I've yet to find anyone that wants their tax dollars wasted.
People literally work overtime to be able to feed their families. They're working two and three jobs. And in April, when they pay their taxes, they want to know when to roads and infrastructure and national security. And what we reveal in Federal Fumbles is, yeah, some of that was done, but also some of it was done because we lacked oversight.

One example involves a woman who walked away with approximately $30,000,000. This is particularly notable in USAID. We're investigating the source of this wealth. Perhaps they are skilled investors, but it seems more likely that this wealth accumulation is occurring at the expense of the organization.

Why do you think they love multibillionaire George Soros, who has used the various instrumentality of the government to acquire radio stations, who spends tens of billions of dollars throughout the years, he and his son to influence our government, to insinuate themselves in governmental decisions, to elect prosecutors who refuse to prosecute and so forth. That's their sugar daddy. That's their guy.
But when it comes to Elon Musk, they want him criminally investigated. They believe he doesn't have any role in anything and so forth and so on. Do you see this as complete hypocrisy?
Speaker 1: Complete hypocrisy. And what Elon is doing is heroic. You used the word, in the opening monologue. Exactly right. This is an heroic effort.
He is bringing common sense and transparency and sunlight to the federal government, to to the bureaucracy, to what many of us refer to as the deep state. And this is what he and I were talking about, just on Monday night at his office. I said, Elon, I am so excited about what you are doing, what you are uncovering. I I said, you think of this as a scientist and a data analyst. I think of it as a constitutional law attorney and historian.
Elon, what we are going to be able to do through this effort is restore the original intent of the framers of the constitution. What they had in mind is a small federal government that was closely monitored and had heavy oversight by the duly elected representatives of the people. The challenge we've had here in recent decades is that members of congress, these representatives, have not been able to do that job well. The oversight job has been hindered because the deep state and the bureaucracy has not turned over the data. They wouldn't give us the information we were seeking.
We didn't know all this because it was hidden. Now Elon has cracked the code. He is on the inside of the belly of the beast, Mark, and he is he is unveiling and revealing all these things that we knew intuitively were happening, but we didn't have the evidence. This is a game changer. It is truly revolutionary, and we're gonna restore, ultimately, through this process, the federal government to the original intent of the founders, and that's what has the the big government, socialist, liberals, and Democrat party apoplectic because they're afraid of what the final result of this is gonna be, and it's very exciting for the people.

Having to tiptoe around DEI, hauled into HR for jokes, canceled for an opinion, watching Black Lives Matter light us on fire. A guy wearing a dress raped a girl in the girl's bathroom, and the girl's dad got arrested for raising his voice. A DEI bureaucrat at the Department of Justice making 6 figures who's gonna get a buyout with an eight month severage deal, they're not a victim.
CNN's putting spot shadows on feds like their lives are in danger.
Speaker 4: What is the general feeling across government amongst your fellow federal workers right now?
Speaker 5: Grief. They're angry, many that are confused, but all kind of grieving in their own way.
Speaker 4: How does it feel to be targeted for the work that you're so passionate about? It's okay. You could take your time.
Speaker 5: It actually makes me proud of the people that I've worked with and the things that we've done.
Speaker 0: CNN's spot chatting a woman who's worked from home, and now she's crying because she doesn't wanna go back to the office? This is insane. CNN just laid off hundreds of employees to cut costs because their books aren't balanced because no one's watching them. No one's interviewing fired CNN staff, not even Don Lemon. Getting fired isn't a war crime.
I've been fired four times, and thank God because it turned out alright. Since when has CNN cared about people losing their jobs? They didn't weep when Biden waxed the Keystone Pipeline Workers. CNN's been trying to get everybody fired at Fox for years. If CNN doesn't like what you say, they call your boss, they call your advertisers, They try to bankrupt you and boycott you.
Random Americans who crack jokes on Facebook. CNN was putting them on blast, trying to get them canceled. CNN cheered on Biden for firing army officers who didn't get vaxxed. Guys who are willing to die for this country. CNN said, good.
Get them out of here. CNN's boss can lay off people. Why can't Trump? Bill Clinton fired almost 400,000 federal workers. That wasn't a constitutional crisis.
The government had to slim down. Bill and Newt cut the fat, balanced the budget, and Democrats are acting like we're witnessing a genocide.
Speaker 6: Let me remind you who set the house on fire. It was y'all. It feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty and hand it over to someone who is unelected.
Speaker 0: Fire Elon Musk. Elon Musk took control of our country's financial nuclear codes.
Speaker 7: House Republicans have allowed billionaire Elon Musk and his gang of thieves to enter the US Treasury Department, fire the people entrusted with secret private information about Americans, and give them that access.
Speaker 0: Elon Musk is destroying our federal government. He feels he bought himself a president.
Speaker 8: Now we've got Donald Trump and his co president, Elon Musk, and they're just running a wrecking ball through it.
Speaker 0: Democrats wanna audit you for a $600 Venmo payment. But when Elon audits the trillion dollar government, they're ready to storm the castle. Why are Democrats shocked? We're putting the government on a diet. Trump and Musk campaigned on it and won on it.
Speaker 5: We're gonna be very open and transparent and be very clear about this is what we're doing. Here are the issues. The this is this is the the math for what what's being spent and and what, you know, and and we're we're gonna make it we're gonna make the spending lower. And if if somebody's got a better idea for how to make the spending lower, we're tell us. But but if we don't, we're gonna bankrupt the country.
Speaker 9: I will create a government efficiency commission task with conducting totally eliminate fraud and improper payments within six months. This will save trillions of dollars, trillions.
Speaker 0: Democrats aren't surprised this is Trump's agenda. They're surprised he's able to execute it because after years of incompetence, no one thought anyone was capable of doing anything in Washington. Elon says there's a way to know when you're over the target.
Speaker 5: One of the things I remember from the PayPal days was that, you know, who complains the loudest, is the fraudsters. Okay? So, like, the so so when when somebody was trying to commit fraud or PayPal, where we would see the most amount of righteous indignation, like, it would be like immediate over the top righteous indignation was from the fraudsters, not from honest people. Because honest people are like, oh, I think there's something wrong with my account. I guess I wonder what's wrong.
Let me inquire. And and but the fraudsters will come at you immediately. The the this is it's like a it's like a tell you that that someone's actually doing fraud because the level of of sort of foe outrage is way over the top.
Speaker 0: Elon doesn't care about bad press. He's trying to save the republic. It's good cop, bad cop. Trump's the good cop. He's the bad cop.
Speaker 9: We're catching him left and right. We're catching him. We're catching him to a point where they don't know what the heck is going on. They can't believe they're getting caught. And I have great respect for the people that are doing it.
Elon Musk is helping us on it, and he's pretty good. He's pretty good.
Speaker 0: The government's been robbing us blind. We've been writing checks, 6,000,000 for tourism in Egypt. Like, Egypt needs help with that. They have the pyramids. We should be spending money on cleaning up California so that tourists can vacation in California.
Two million to help the BBC value the diversity of Libyan society. We're bribing the BBC to cover Libya better? Why? A million for a gay group in Armenia. There it is.
We paid 20,000,000 for Iraqi Sesame Street. You paid for Bert and Ernie in Baghdad. Weren't we just bombing these people? Now we're paying for their Muppet shows? We're sick.
There is something sick with us. You also paid for an Irish DEI musical.
Speaker 10: On behalf of ambassador Cronin, it is an honor to welcome all of her guests to Deerfield tonight for this important event. Increasing access to opportunity and equity is a cornerstone of the Biden administration, and we're so proud to play a small part in that here.
Speaker 0: This is a government theft ring. We spent $2,000,000 for trans surgeries in Guatemala. I'm gonna go out on a limb. One Guatemalan dude got breast implants, and we probably kicked back the rest of the cash to a crooked Guatemalan politician and the corrupt liberal CEO of the group they laundered the money through. Because all this money we're spending, we could have turned the whole world trans.
We could have made every man a woman and every woman a man with this kind of money. Do you really think it costs 20,000,000 to produce an episode of Sesame Street? You could hire Tom Cruise to play Oscar the Grouch for that money. Check this. Biden paid nearly $5,000,000,000 to unnamed foreign sources.
Whoever's getting our money is so shady, our government can't even put it in writing. They just call it aid. I bet a lot of this money is to bribe foreign officials to win bids for American companies or to bribe foreign politicians just to have in our pockets or just to subsidize far left foundations. Most of the people getting money from these grants aren't in the country. They pump it into overseas organizations, and then we never see them.
Any liberal with an international women's studies degree can launch a five zero one c three, apply for a government grant, and spin it off into a left wing piggy bank. USAID paid $235,000,000 to the National Democratic Institute. K. Well, that sounds benign. No.
Millions of that money went to executive compensation, meaning salaries for all the liberals with no skills. I bet most of that money didn't go to supporting democracy. It went to supporting liberal lifestyles. Democrats have been sucking off the teat of government for decades, and Trump caught them. As one Trump insider says, you bring USAID to heal and you end the Democrat gravy train.
USAID is just the beginning. You start peeling back at the layers of every agency, and all you find out is pork that winds up in the wrong people's pockets.
Speaker 11: The White Coat Waste Project exposed more than $10,000,000 in taxpayer funds that were spent creating transgender mice, rats, and monkeys. The Biden Harris administration spent 2,500,000.0 taxpayer dollars, 2 point 5 million taxpayer dollars to study the fertility of trans gender mice. We spent over a million dollars, to find out if female rats receiving testosterone therapy, were more likely to overdose on a date rape drug.
Speaker 0: One of those multimillion dollar studies was at the University of Michigan. How much do you wanna bet? A Democrat wants to go to a game at Ann Arbor. Front row seats. Anyone from the Biden team wants to land at Ann Arbor.
Here's an office, a campus, an apartment, and a no show job with benefits. Governments fed the pigs so much it turned into a hog. You know what happens to hogs? They get slaughtered. And the American people love a good butcher.
Speaker 12: This political party, the Democratic party have lied to us about everything. What the last several weeks have proven to us all is that this was a part this is a cadre of criminals and losers and spoiled children of affluent parents
Speaker 7: who were more
Speaker 12: concerned about looking good than actually doing good. Now we come to USAID being probably the largest money laundering operation in American history. Congratulations, Dembs. You've outdone you've outdone even Bernie Madoff.

I’ve been following the shocking developments in Romania, where the Constitutional Court annulled 9 million votes in the recent election. The judge behind this, Elena Simina Tănăsescu, has ties to Soros-backed NGOs, raising concerns about foreign influence in our democracy. Other judges have similar connections, including endorsements from U.S. figures. It feels like a power play by globalist interests to maintain control. Meanwhile, I’m hopeful that figures like Elon Musk will help expose the deep web of NGOs and the corruption that has long been hidden.

Wait til @elonmusk and @DOGE expose the deep web of NGOs and global foreign interference Tax payer money wasted to spread global agendas Decades of bureaucracy has created a veil over fraud and corruption That veil is FINALLY being lifted
reSee.it AI Summary
I'm gearing up for @DOGE to expose the fraud in Washington. @elonmusk and 'Big Balls' discovered millions of tax dollars wasted on projects in Kosovo, Egypt, and more. The left and media aren't happy about cutting waste; they're more focused on defending government excess and censorship.
@JesseBWatters - Jesse Watters
Get ready — @DOGE is forklifting the fraud out of Washington. @elonmusk and ‘Big Balls” found millions of your tax dollars going towards recycling in Kosovo and Egypt, a women empowerment hub, voter confidence in Libera, voter turnout in India, and “social cohesion” in Mali. The left and the media aren’t taking any of the waste-slashing well. The media’s not defending the taxpayers — they’re defending our bloated government and German censors instead.
Video Transcript AI Summary
Doge is uncovering massive fraud, triggering panic among Democrats who fear their misuse of power will be exposed. We're talking trillions potentially saved by cracking down on fake identities used to steal taxpayer benefits. Remember when Biden hired 87,000 IRS agents and then had the IRS audit Hegseth? Now, we're auditing the auditors, upgrading outdated software.
We're also scrutinizing questionable spending like millions on gender equality hubs, strengthening political landscapes in Bangladesh, and voter turnout in India and Liberia. Why are we spending so much money on other countries' elections?
While we're cutting headcount and saving money, the media is busy defending the indefensible like Germany's censorship and wasteful government spending. The left is defending the indefensible and the Democrats have become so toxic that Politico is warning them to stay out of the way.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Even the holiday weekend couldn't slow Doge down. There was a huge exodus over at the National Archives for snickety librarians were getting Doge'd silly. The Dewey Decimal System's next. It was pink slip city at the FDA, Medicare, and Medicaid, and the IRS is on deck.
Speaker 1: These are foreign nationals who come into The United States, they use fake Social Security numbers, they use fake identities to steal billions in taxpayer benefits. There's no way to know until Doge gains full access exactly how much money we're talking about. But over a ten year normal budget window, you could be talking about saving over a trillion dollars by clamping down on massive fraud in our tax and entitlement systems, including, again, those carried out by organized fraud and theft rings.
Speaker 0: Biden hired 87,000 IRS agents, gave them guns, and were getting ripped off to the tune of a trillion bucks. Because Biden had his sights set on America's real enemy, Pete Hegseth. Right before inauguration day, Biden's IRS audited Pistol Pete. Biden's son's a tax cheat, and he's auditing Hegseth, the incoming defense secretary who doesn't have enough on his plate keeping America safe. So now Elon and Big Balls are going to audit the auditors and upgrade the software because they're using programs from the nineteen sixties.
Democrats are hysterical that Elon and Big Balls are opening up the books because they assume Elon will just abuse their power like they did and audit their political enemies. You remember, like, Lois Lerner? And then she fried 24,000 emails so congress couldn't investigate. Democrats leaked Trump's tax returns to Maddow. Maddow's, like, waving them live on TV.
That's a felony. And they're worrying about Musk? Democrats are already in prison for doing what they're accusing Musk of. Whose tax returns is he gonna leak? Hunters?
He didn't file any. Almost a thousand people have full unmasked access to taxpayer data. 20 of them are student researchers. Basically, interns have access to your tax returns. Democrats don't care.
They only care when the guy who has access might find fraud. Like all good detectives, Doge is following the money. Next up on the list, Fort Knox, home to the largest gold reserve in the country, and we go years without sending inspectors in. How much gold does Fort Knox hold? Only one way to find out.
This all happening while massive amounts of gold bullion are being flown in from London vaults. It can't all be because judge Janine's going jewelry shopping, can it? Dozers are still sniffing out the bacon. Here's what they found this weekend. 35,000,000 for a gender equality and women empowerment hub, a girl hub where women hang out and pump each other up.
Sounds like a sorority. 29,000,000 to strengthen political landscape in Bangladesh. That is so generic. It could be anything. Strengthen the political landscape.
It's vague for a reason. Doge says we spent 21,000,000 for voter turnout in India. Now imagine if the Indian government spent $21,000,000 for voter turnout in America, and Trump won. When they do it, it's election interference. When we do it, it's strengthening the political landscape.
1 and a half million for voter confidence in Liberia. What are we doing? Giving pep talks to Africans before they cast ballots? You got this. We got this.
It's gonna work this time. Why are we spending so much money on other countries' elections while we're still counting votes in California? Those also found 14,000,000 for social cohesion in Mali. Mali is run by mercenaries and plagued by ancient ethnic warfare. Not to mention landmines, torture, sexual violence, and child marriage.
I'm sure that 14,000,000 is just what Mali needs to be socially cohesive. And 2,000,000 to help Kosovo and Egypt recycle. We don't even recycle here. What are we? Just buying them blue bins?
We just bombed the bejesus out of Kosovo, and now we're telling them to recycle. A new report says the government's already nearing a trillion dollars in the hole for the year. Democrats should not fight this. Their boys, Bill and Al, were for Doge before Doge was cool.
Speaker 2: Mister president, if you wanna know why government doesn't work, look behind you. The answer is at least partly on those forklifts. Is this the way it has to be? Well, the good news is that it doesn't have to be this way. We can cut it dramatically.
We can downsize government by 12%, reducing the bureaucracy by 252,000 positions.
Speaker 0: Doge is forklifting the fraud out of Washington. So what are Democrats doing? Sheryl Crow says she's selling her Tesla and donating the money to NPR. And RINOs are roaring at Democrats to do something.
Speaker 3: So I just like to see somebody wake the hell up and get excited about the fact that your country is under assault. They're bare they're not at the gate anymore. They're in your bedrooms. They're in your living rooms. They're in your businesses.
They're got they got your data, dumbass. They got all your stuff. Elon Musk has his tentacles in everything you're doing, not just off of x, but now he's in the treasury department. He's in the labor department. He's in the department of homeland security, and nobody seems to give a damn.
So that's all I want somebody to show that they care enough to get off their fat ass and say something about it.
Speaker 0: What Steele is saying is the Democrats believe the government's theirs. It's not your government. It's theirs. To them, it's like Doge is auditing the DNC. So this is just another Watergate.
They're acting like Trump didn't win the election, and he has no right to run the government. Instead of defending the taxpayers, the media is defending the government. Here's sixty minutes.
Speaker 4: People are really scared. I think that, you know, twelve days ago, people knew where their next paycheck was coming from. They knew how they were gonna pay for their kids' daycare, their medical bills, and then all gone overnight.
Speaker 2: All gone overnight for Christina Drai and Adam Dubard fired this month in the chaotic shutdown of foreign aid.
Speaker 0: They're not looking for competency. They're not looking for if you're good at your job. They're looking for pure loyalty tests. And if you don't give it, you you will be punished. There was no process.
Speaker 2: No one explained to them why they were being relieved.
Speaker 4: To my knowledge, they received an email. And then if they didn't leave the building, they were escorted out of the building.
Speaker 0: These people got generous buyouts. Eight month severance. I'm sorry. But did CVS interview the fired Keystone Pipeline workers? The fired army officers who refused the needle or black Americans who lost their job to migrants?
No. That one lady was Samantha Powers' speechwriter. She's no random civil servant. She's the top flack for the USAID chief. Just last week, this same lady told ABC she was pocketing her pride flags.
The networks are using the same victim over and over.
Speaker 5: Which was in the building. We started we took down our pride flags. We took down I took out any books I felt would be incriminating. No one was talking. We heard they started taking transcripts automatically of all of our Google Meets.
We they unplugged the news in the little kitchen galleys. It didn't feel good. And then Saturday, all of the websites went down, and then I lost complete access to my computer.
Speaker 0: Sixty Minutes is CBS's premier investigative unit, and they never mentioned the 20,000,000 for Iraqi Sesame Street or sex changes in Guatemala or DEI operas or all the dough spent on failed coups. Never mentioned it. We're 36,000,000,000,000 in debt. We're cutting headcount just like media organizations do to balance their books, just like Clinton and Gore did. Last week, Vance was in Germany and told the chancellor to knock off the censorship and step up their NATO spending.
And the American media sided with the Germans and called Vance Hitler.
Speaker 6: He was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide, and he met with the head of a political party that has far right views and some historic ties to extreme groups. The context of that was changing the tone of it. And you know that, that the censorship was specifically about the right. No.
Speaker 7: I have to disagree with you. Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide. The genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocidal because they hated Jews and they hated minorities and they hated those that they they had a list of people they hated, but primarily the Jews. There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. There was none.
Speaker 0: It was illegal to criticize the Nazi government. It was against the law to tell a joke about Hitler, and he had a dumb mustache and one testicle. Couldn't joke about it. Newspapers were shut down. Books were burned.
Radio stations were censored. Free speech didn't trigger the holocaust. CBS's crack research team's too busy editing the Kamala interview to learn that. On the same day, CBS celebrated an armed raid in Germany because a guy posted a cartoon.
Speaker 8: It's 06:01 on a Tuesday morning, and we were with state police as they raided this apartment in Northwest Germany. Inside, six armed officers searched the suspect's home, then seized his laptop and cell phone. Prosecutors say those electronics may have been used to commit a crime. The crime, posting a racist cartoon online. And it's a crime to insult them online as well?
Yes. If somebody posts something that's not true, and then somebody else reposts it or likes it, are they committing a crime?
Speaker 9: In the case of reposting, it is a crime as well because, the reader can't distinguish whether you just invented, this or just reposted it.
Speaker 0: Germany is letting migrants into the country who are committing gang rape, and they have cops kicking down doors over a cartoon. CBS is defending Germany, a country who started two world wars that cost millions of lives and who tariff our automobiles quite unfairly, I might add. They're defending a country who boos our national anthem, Canada. Trump renamed the Gulf Of Mexico the Gulf Of America, and the media is defending Mexico. The media is defending the IRS.
The media is defending cockamamie spending like millions for Egyptian recycling. Trump has the left defending the indefensible. The Democrats have become so toxic that Politico's warning them to just stay out of the way. Quote, despite this intense daily barrage of negative reporting, Trump's drive to slash the size of the US government remains one of his most popular policies, and there's no sign of it stopping anytime soon. Trump's in the driver's seat, and Democrats are getting lapped.

Reducing fraud & waste of your tax dollars by a trillion dollars in 2026 is possible
reSee.it AI Summary
I'm sharing insights on why Elon Musk is making waves. It turns out that Democrats are allegedly laundering taxpayer money through NGOs, and there's a plan to use DOGE to trace this money back to its origins. Politicians are profiting from systemic fraud, and it's time someone took action. The process involves taxpayer funds going to NGOs, creating a loophole that allows money to flow back to corrupt politicians. I'm determined to connect the dots and expose this corruption. Supporting Elon Musk and DOGE's mission is crucial for the change we need.
@Ultrafrog17 - Green Lives Matter
If you are wondering why Elon Musk is over the target, this clip explains it all. Democrats are money laundering YOUR taxpayer money through NG0s and they are planning on using DOGE to follow the money to the source of the crime. Politicians are becoming wealthy off systematic fraud and theft and we have known this for decades but now someone is finally doing something about it. If this is shut down, their entire system of corruption will be severely hampered. "What happens is your tax payer money is sent to various organizations which then send it to NGOs. Effectively, there is a giant fraud loophole. The government can send money to an NGO which is then no longer governed by the laws of the United States. I'm highly confident that a bunch of that money then comes back to the United States and lands in the pockets of the (corrupt politicians)... There is a lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress. I'm trying to connect the dots. How did they become rich? How did they get 20 million while they are earning 200 thousand a year. Nobody can explain that. We are going to try and figure it out. And certainly, stop it." This is the kind of change we have been looking for. We must support Elon Musk and DOGE's mission now more than ever.
Video Transcript AI Summary
Taxpayer money is sent to government organizations, then to NGOs. If it's a government-funded NGO, it's effectively just the government.
A fraud loophole exists because the government can send money to an NGO that is no longer governed by U.S. laws. The money is sent overseas to one NGO, then through others.
The speaker is highly confident that some of that money returns to the U.S. and enriches certain people. There are strangely wealthy members of Congress, and it's unclear how they accumulated millions while earning comparatively little. The speaker aims to investigate this and prevent it from continuing.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: There is a massive amount of corruption, it is circuitous. So what happens is there's money that obviously, it's your taxpayer money that that is then sent to various government organizations who then send it to to NGOs, which which an NGO is a nongovernmental organization, obviously, if it's a government funded nongovernmental organization, it's just an organization. It's just the government. And effectively, there's a giant fraud loophole, which is that the government can send money to an NGO that is then no longer governed by the law laws of The United States. So they'll they'll send the money overseas to one NGO, then it'll go through a bunch of a bunch of them.
And then I'm highly confident that a bunch of that money then comes back to The United States and lands in the pockets of the people you just mentioned. But it is a circuitous route. It's not like it it doesn't go directly. But let's just say that there's a lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress where I just can't I'm trying to connect the dots of how do they become rich while earning how they get $20,000,000 if they're earning $200,000 a year. It sounds that's how how do nobody can explain that.
So something's yeah, we're going to try to figure it out and and certainly stop it from happening. So

DOGE just confirmed what many suspected - there’s a tremendous amount of waste, fraud, and abuse in our government. Including voter fraud, using illegal immigrants, under Biden. https://t.co/7dRAypSX1j
Video Transcript AI Summary
Doge's revelations allegedly expose significant waste, fraud, and abuse within the US government. Antonio Gracias claims the Biden administration's policies link illegal immigration, voter fraud, and Social Security. He alleges a surge in Social Security numbers being issued to non-citizens, facilitated by administrative offenses at the border and a system that defaults to "max inclusion" for benefits.
Concerns are raised about non-citizens registering and voting, potentially impacting elections. The Heritage Foundation estimates a net fiscal deficit of $14-15,000 per unlawful immigrant household annually.
Doge's findings also highlight government waste, including the NIH's 700 disparate IT systems and a billion-dollar 10-question survey. There are twice as many active government credit cards as employees, and archaic systems hinder efficiency. $4.7 trillion in government spending is reportedly untraceable due to optional rationale fields.
Elon Musk claims that cutting waste, fraud, and abuse could improve government benefits. He alleges Social Security fraud is preventing legitimate recipients from receiving benefits. Doge aims to cut a trillion dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse and improve government services. The speaker emphasizes the need for technological solutions and accountability to address the national debt crisis.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: The last few days of revelation from Doge have given us extremely specific details that confirm what many of us have suspected for a while now. The US government is full of waste, fraud, and abuse. So first, let's talk about the fraud. Today, Antonio Gracias, a self made billionaire and friend of Elon Musk, walked us through exactly how under the Biden administration, illegal immigration, voter fraud, and Social Security are linked. I want you to watch this.
Speaker 1: We started at the top of the system mapping the whole system of Social Security to understand where all the fraud was, and there's a lot of great people there that showed us really a lot of waste. And so that came with a big list of stuff they're working on. You've heard some of already. But this is what jumped out at us. When we saw these numbers, we're like, what is this?
In '21, you see 270,000 people goes all the way to 2,100,000 in '24. These are noncitizens that are getting Social Security numbers.
Speaker 2: Yeah. This this is a mind blowing chart.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Just this this literally blew us away. Like, we went there to find fraud, and we found this by accident. This number, what this is, is when you come in the country, if you're illegal, there's a couple ways to come in. You come in through a port of entry, and you can tell them you're afraid.
You'll get they'll give you an asylum asylum case. Get an interview, then you get in. That's one way to do it. Another way to do it is to just go to the border. Literally, this happened.
I talked to border patrol myself. Elon was there too. I went to Laredo, and I went to Brownsville. Elon went to Eagle Pass. You walk up to a board patrol officer, and you tell them you wanna come in.
They have a couple of choices. They could charge you with a misdemeanor or a felony under $13.25, or they can make an administrative offense, like a parking ticket, basically. They were told to do that, make an administrative offense on the last administration. And you go walk across the border, they do what's called a release of your own recognizance, and they give you an NTA, a notice to appear, which to appear to judge. The wait times on judges are like average six years.
Look at Guroc, you'll see it on immigration judges. There's only 700 of them. This is 5,500,000 people. Okay? So what happens then?
Once you're in the country and you've got asylum through one of these pathways, we map the whole thing out, you can apply for a work document. You file a seven six five. It's the work form. You get this form called the seven six six. That's the authorization.
And then Social Security Administration automatically sends you in the mail your Social Security number. No interview. No ID.
Speaker 2: This is worth, like, just reiterating. It it it's not that it's not people sometimes think that under the Biden administration that that he was simply asleep at the switch. He wasn't asleep. They weren't asleep at the switch. It it it was a massive large scale program to import as many illegals as possible, ultimately to change the entire voting map of The United States and disenfranchise the the American people and make it a permanent, deep blue, one party state from which there would be no escape.
Speaker 1: Look. If I hadn't seen this myself, I'm not sure I believed it. I went through it myself and mapped it. And Elon is right. This is true.
The defaults in the system from Social Security to all of the benefit programs have been set to max inclusion, max pay for these people and minimum collection. That's what's happening. We found 1,300,000 of them already on Medicaid as an example. We've gone through On every benefit program we went through, we found groups from this particular group of people, this 5,500,000 people, in those benefit programs. And then what was really, really disturbing us was why.
We're asking ourselves why. And so we actually just took a sample and looked at voter registration records, and we found people here registered to vote in this population. Yes.
Speaker 2: And who did vote?
Speaker 1: And and we found some by sampling that actually did vote, and we have referred them to prosecution at the Homeland Security Investigation Service. Yeah.
Speaker 0: Okay. So what does this mean? Let's break down exactly what we were just told. Step one. So you notice that spike on the chart that Antonio had up?
That shows that the Biden administration allowed people to enter the country illegally in increased numbers prior to the twenty twenty four election. Whether it was by design or incompetence is a question, but what is not a question is that there were increased numbers of people entering the country illegally prior to that election. Step two, the administration gave many of those illegal immigrants a light slap on the wrist instead of a misdemeanor or a felony. And, effectively, they got to stay here for years without consequence. And the way this works is that those illegal immigrants, rather than being turned away, which would be the ideal thing, or getting charged with a felony, they essentially just got an administrative offense, which is like a parking ticket, and they would just have to show up at a court hearing that might not happen for a long time, maybe even years, because the court system is so overwhelmed.
It takes years for the case to be heard. And in the meantime, that illegal immigrant gets to just stay in the country. Step three, them a Social Security number so that they can get Medicaid and other benefits using taxpayer money. And here, the rejoinder is often, oh, well, they don't get full benefits, and they pay taxes. Yeah.
Illegal immigrants do pay some taxes. That's a fair point. But it's not as much as they receive in benefits. The Heritage Foundation estimated that the average unlawful immigrant household receives about $25,000 in government benefits and services while only paying about $10,000 in taxes. So that's an annual fiscal deficit of around 14 to $15,000 per household.
So now that these people are in the country, step four, remove voter ID requirements at a state level so that citizenship can't be verified. I live in California. I experienced this directly. In fact, funny story, on election day, I literally tried to show my ID and had it refused. I was like, let let's see.
Maybe this is just like an Internet thing. Like, you know, surely, I can't I literally cannot not show my ID. Nope. That's exactly what happened. I tried to show my ID and had it refused.
And on top of that, we've seen explicit moves to allow noncitizens to vote. In 2021, the New York City Council allowed approximately 800,000 noncitizens, specifically lawful permanent residents, but noncitizens to vote in municipal elections like mayor and city council. They passed a bill that would allow this provided that they had resided in the city for at least thirty days. Now the law never took effect because it was challenged immediately, and it was finally struck down on March twentieth of this year, twenty twenty five. But it shows the Democrats' willingness to extend voting rights to noncitizens.
Imagine if he had been in power. Do you think they might have extended that right even further? It's worth contemplating. And then there's the issue of, well, did some noncitizens and, in fact, illegal immigrants vote in the twenty twenty four election? Because according to Antonio, they found outright evidence of illegal immigrants actually voting in that election.
He found a significant portion of his Social Security numbers that were given to illegal immigrants also were registered in the voter rolls. A step five is illegal immigrants now vote on a smaller scale in states where voter ID isn't required. And how would voter fraud work? Because, look, I think a lot of time people are saying, it's ridiculous. There weren't millions of illegal immigrants voting.
You don't need millions. You don't need a massive amount of voter fraud to swing an election. In the twenty twenty election, two key swing states, Arizona and Georgia, were won by roughly 22,000 votes respectively. That is a tiny amount considering the tens of millions of votes that are cast. So if that had happened at sufficient scale in a few key swing states, step six would have been you just win the election.
And with that power that you have over the executive branch and maybe over the legislative branch, you give citizenship to illegal immigrants so that they can vote on a larger scale. And that's what the Biden administration tried to do in 2021 with The US citizenship act. That act would have given illegal immigrants an eight year path to citizenship. So you allow illegal immigrants into the country. You let them stay here longer than they should because you give them a court date that is gonna be years in the future because the judicial system is overrun.
You give them benefits. They stay here. You give them citizenship. Guess who they're gonna be loyal to? The same people who let them in.
Step eight is now presidential elections are just like California elections, just different shades of blue. And as someone who lives in California and just had to evacuate his home due to the LA fires, I see what happens when your state goes so deep blue that even when disasters happen, you still get to hold on to power. If that sounds conspiratorial to you, so be it. Maybe it's just gross incompetence and a bunch of disconnected events. But here's the thing.
Extreme incompetence is indistinguishable from genuine malevolence. And even if you dispute that all of this was planned intentionally, what can't be disputed is that all of this was happening simultaneously. So intentional or not, it is an attack vector that needs to be closed. And anyone who exploited that attack vector at any scale needs to go to prison because it's treason. That's the biggest fraud bombshell.
But I mentioned fraud, waste, and abuse. So now let's talk about the waste and the abuse. Because Thursday, Elon and the Doge team did an interview, and they detailed some of the most insane findings from Doge's efforts so far. Here's a compilation of some of the wildest findings. The NIH has nearly 700 different IT systems.
Most of them don't talk to each other.
Speaker 3: There's 700 different IT systems today at NIH.
Speaker 4: Seven hundred different IT systems.
Speaker 3: IT software systems.
Speaker 2: They don't connect.
Speaker 3: They can't speak to
Speaker 2: each other.
Speaker 4: They say they don't talk to one.
Speaker 3: They have 27 different CIOs. And so when you think about making great medical discoveries, you have to connect the data.
Speaker 4: Time out. Time out. You said 27 different chief information officers?
Speaker 3: Correct. Correct.
Speaker 2: Most of them are nontechnical.
Speaker 4: So there's a lot there.
Speaker 2: So what
Speaker 3: saying? 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 benefits, that are preventing people from preventing research from happening, that are, extremely vulnerable to fraud, and we're fixing it.
Speaker 0: Our government spent a billion dollars implementing a 10 question survey.
Speaker 2: 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 a 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 0: There are twice as many active credit cards than there are government employees. There's over 5,000,000 government employees and twice as many credit cards. And the process for retiring government employees literally involves processing files in an underground mine. Like, that's how archaic our systems are. And that means that even if you're genuinely trying to lay off many government employees quickly so that you can improve government efficiency, you can only do that at a rate of about 10,000 employees a month due to, I kid you not, limitations on how slow the elevator is that goes up and down into this mine.
Crazy. This is on top of earlier findings like finding out that $4,700,000,000,000 of government spending over the last several years that the treasury department has issued is untraceable. We don't even know how that money was spent or why it was spent. Because the field where government's employees are supposed to mark how that money was spent was optional instead of being mandatory. Many of you have either worked in corporate life or maybe you're you still work in the corporate world.
I used to be in the corporate world. There was no situation where I was allowed to spend the company's money without it having explicitly detailed rationale in a modern digital system where I could be held accountable. So just think about this from first principles. If the government doesn't have accountability because, first of all, even the president can't fire the majority of government's employees. They have a ton of civil service protections that protects their jobs.
Having a government job is one of the most secure jobs you can have in the world, which is great for the employees, but for the people who are paying those employees who, functionally, we are the boss, not only do we not have transparency, we don't have levers of accountability. Because even if things and funds are mismanaged, what can we actually do about it? I mean, the elected representatives are barely accountable to us. What about the unelected public servants? So do I think that majority of government's employees are corrupt?
Absolutely not. There's definitely some bad apples, but I think a lot of them are just caught in a system that is not accountable. It's not incentivized to be effective. It's not incentivized to be efficient, and it's just not serving the American people. So it's basically like a company that has been running a multitrillion dollar debt for years, but the company can never shut down.
There's never any accountability. It's madness. So what's a high level takeaway here? Right now, we will focus on the government fraud, waste, and abuse. The thesis is that there's enough of that for Doge to be able to reduce government spending by a trillion dollars.
Democrats are complaining that this means removing tons of benefits and services that Americans rely on, but it is obvious that there's tremendous amounts of waste in the government. And in fact, as a result, Elon has made the opposite claim, that we can cut a trillion dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse and actually make government benefits and services better. For example, I want you to see what he just said about Social Security fraud stopping people from currently receiving their Social Security benefits. Check this out.
Speaker 2: 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.
It's because of of all the the fraud loopholes in the Social Security system.
Speaker 4: 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 4: Alright. I wanna
Speaker 2: emphasize that point and and and and let the record show that I said this, and the it will be proven out to be true.
Speaker 0: There's more than just waste in the government. There's outright fraud. Many people have been victims of identity fraud and have someone who's stolen their Social Security number and identity getting checks that they should be getting. So if we can solve a lot of these problems, we get a better government, not just a smaller one. And don't you guys want a smaller, better government?
And on another note, you know, it's very easy to focus on the federal layoffs. And my heart goes out to any federal government employee who has lost their job. Because on a human level, it doesn't matter what all the abstract conceptual reasons are. Losing your job is a scary thing. It's very scary.
Now I'll note that less than one percent of the people who were laid off did not receive some sort of severance. Many of those packages were eight months severance, which is actually really generous in the corporate world. So these people are not just having the table flipped over and told, okay. Good luck. But it's still a traumatic experience to lose your job, and I totally get why some people are just emotionally distraught over it.
But at the end of the day, the point of the government is not to provide people jobs. The point of the government, among other things, is to create an overall ecosystem where everyone has jobs and their needs met, but not be bigger so that we have more people in government. Like, that's not how we're supposed to be doing this thing. So, yeah, that's what the efficiency effort requires. Like, yes, we do need to be laying people off.
If a hundred people are doing a job that one can do, or if we have 700 different IT systems when we could replace them with five. And on a final note here, you know, before Elon entered the picture, it seemed like everyone agreed that there's a ton of waste, fraud, and abuse in the government. And it reminds me, just like before Trump ran for president the first time, everyone agreed that politicians were corrupt and there's a swamp that needed to be drained. But somewhere along the line, people became so fixated on the people who are solving the problem that they seem to miss the enormity of the problems those people are solving. And another thing that's being revealed here is how much of this problem isn't simply a matter of slashing budgets.
A lot of it is about outdated software and complicated money trails. So what does that actually mean? A lot of this is actually technological, technical, and coding problems, and that's why Doge is so revolutionary. We've had five major efforts to create government efficiency since 02/2001. In fact, there's a great clip from 2011 of Obama announcing a Doge like effort to bring government efficiency headed by your buddy Joe Biden.
So it's no wonder it wasn't so successful. Right? And none of those efforts, none of those five efforts have produced more than $25,000,000,000 of savings. So for all the things that people complain about Doge for, having a bunch of self made billionaires involved and young genius coders involved, those things that they're critiquing are actually Doge's strength. The bureaucrats have not been able to solve this problem for the last twenty five years.
Many of these problems can be solved with just better systems. It's not about cutting some money here and cutting some money there. You need to rearchitect these entire systems. So if Elon, the most successful technologist in the world, surrounded by a bunch of other geniuses who have made billions of dollars by delivering billions of dollars of value and solutions to humanity's problems, like one of the cofounders of Airbnb. He's involved.
If these people can't solve this problem, who can? Joe Biden? AOC? Bernie Sanders? Who who's gonna solve this problem?
Do you trust any of these politicians to solve this problem? So you don't have to like Elon. You don't like to have his approach. You don't like to like the fact that a bunch of 20 year old coders are in the Social Security Administration databases. But if they don't solve the problem, I don't see who else can.
So I hope that detractors of Doge and Elon see this, because a lot of the fears that they have about his influence are vague and general, and they're risks that are worth keeping in mind. It's important to have guardrails around anyone, and I understand the concerns, but a lot of these are vague general concerns that fall away when you realize just how wasteful our government is and know the specifics of how they're wasting our money. And you can do your part to help people who are in fear and talking about vague things like oligarchy and fascism just to focus on specifics and ask them, hey. Are any of these things that Doge has uncovered things that you want your money going toward? Any of these things.
Okay. So you have general fears about the people. Do you have any specific concerns about the specific problems that they've uncovered? And better yet, do you have an alternative? Do you have a different point person you can point to in the world and say, yeah.
They'd be better equipped to solve these problems than Doge. If you don't have a better solution, then stop focusing on the people and start focusing on the bigger problem because we have approaching $37,000,000,000,000 of debt, a consistent $2,000,000,000,000 deficit. We basically have a national credit card that we are running up the balance on, and our interest payments are now over a trillion dollars a year. If we don't get to figure this out, we're gonna be talking about more than layoffs. In fact, we're gonna be talking about more than a recession.
We're gonna be talking about a second great depression. So if we don't have great solutions to that, it's time to stop complaining. So if you're watching this, the best thing that you can do as a citizen is share this info with people who don't know. In a vacuum of information, fear is what thrives.

Speaker 0: Very much. Great job.
Speaker 1: Lovely lot. Well, thanks to your fantastic leadership, this amazing cabinet, and the very talented Doge team. I'm excited to announce that we we we anticipate savings in FY 2026 from reduction of waste and fraud by $150,000,000,000 And I mean and some of it is just absurd, like people getting unemployment insurance who haven't been born yet. I mean, I think anyone can appreciate whether I mean, come on. That's just crazy.
So, yes, some of these things if you ask me like, well, how are you going to find ways in Ford in the federal in the government? I'm like, well, actually, just go in any direction. That's how you find it. It's just it's very common. It's as the military would say, target rich environment.
So I think we're doing a lot of good and an excellent collaboration with the cabinet to achieve these savings, and it'll actually result in better services for the American people. And then we're gonna be spending their tax dollars in a way that is sensible and and fair and good.
Speaker 0: And your people are fantastic. In fact, hopefully, they'll stay around for the long haul. We'd like to keep as many as we can. They're great. Smart.
Sharp. Right? Finding things that nobody would have thought of. Very computer savvy.
Speaker 1: Yeah. We're we're we're working with Howard to get the that's the Trump gold card operation.

Video Transcript AI Summary
Doge is effective at eliminating waste and fraud, which overwhelmingly originates from left-wing NGOs. These NGOs are funded and exploit loopholes, but Doge is preventing them from taking advantage.
The biggest concern is that Doge will stop fraudulent entitlement payments, including Social Security, Medicare, unemployment, disability, Small Business Administration loans, from going to illegals. This is the core reason why people are against Doge.

Speaker 0: If those was ineffective, if we were not actually getting rid of a bunch of waste and fraud and a bunch of that fraud I mean, the fraud risk we're seeing is over overwhelmingly on the the on the left. Mhmm. I mean, it's it's there's it's not zero on the right, but these NGOs are almost all left wing NGOs that are being funded, for example. Yep. So they they hate me because Doge is being effective, And Doge is getting rid of a lot of waste before that they were that people on the left were taking advantage of.
That that's that's that's where it comes out to. And and the the the single biggest thing that they're that they're worried about is that Doge is is gonna turn off fraudulent payments of entitlements. I mean, everything from Social Security, Medicare, you know, unemployment, disability, swampers, administration loans, turn them off to illegals. This is the crux of the matter. Yep.
Okay. This is this is the this is the thing that why why they really hit my guts and want me to die.

I observed @elonmusk facing significant backlash, with both his companies and personal life under attack, as he championed @DOGE. It's striking to see him become a target for legacy media. Additionally, I'm disheartened by Republicans in Congress abandoning meaningful spending cuts, betraying their voters.

.@elonmusk took massive incoming — including attacks on his companies as well as personal smears — to lead the effort on @DOGE. He became public enemy #1 of legacy media around the world. To see Republicans in Congress cast aside any meaningful spending reductions (and, in fact, fully fund things like USAID) is demoralizing and represents a betrayal of the voters who elected them.

I know this may get suppressed, but it’s time. Musk promised DOGE would save $1T; the final claim was $214B, yet the independently verifiable amount was under 5% (excluding costs). The churn cost about $135B, including firing 17 inspector generals. They didn’t touch the un-audited $850B Pentagon or Elon’s $38B contracts, and DOGE employees caused data privacy breaches. Musk also donated $290M to Trump, then had regulators shut down and secured ~$6B in new defense contracts—costing taxpayers more than it saved.
@leahfiles - theleahfiles
This will probably get suppressed, but I don’t care. It’s time. Elon Musk promised DOGE would save taxpayers $1 TRILLION. But, it actually just paved his path to become a trillionaire. Let’s follow the money. - “Claimed savings”: Final DOGE claim was $214B saved. The independently verifiable amount was less than 5% of that, not including the actually costs. Costs - The firing-and-rehiring churn cost ~ $135B. - Week one: 17 inspector generals fired who return $26 per $1 spent and catch the very things happening right now with the Trump family ventures, Elon’s ventures, AI, etc. - They didn’t touch the $850B Pentagon budget that has never passed an audit. - Also untouched were the $38B in government contracts flowing to Elon. - Data privacy breaches by DOGE employees And before you say that he worked for free, he did not have to file a financial disclosure because he "worked for free". This looks more like a workaround. Elon donated over $290M to Trump’s campaign. The morning Trump was sworn in, Musk's companies faced $2.37B in legal exposure across 11 federal agencies. Then he was handed power over those same agencies. Inside the first quarter, six of the regulators investigating Elon’s companies were cut, closed, or told to stand down. So, he spent ~$290M to elect Trump and he left office with his cases dead and SpaceX ~$6B RICHER in NEW defense contracts. That is not a Department of Government Efficiency. And as someone who was on the inside when this all went down, the strategy behind finding these contracts was incredibly inefficient and just caused defense contractors, such as Booz Allen Hamilton, to merely change their name from consulting to technology. It merely caused word changes in contracts. Contracts that are bloated and should be cut, weren’t even looked at. And in the end, it cost tax payers exponentially more than it saved, including data privacy, Just want to call out the reality of how Space X and this shady IPO even came about.
