An order has been established to create the Department of Governmental Efficiency (DOS) to ensure timely implementation of policies. This initiative addresses delays in governmental processes, which can take months to approve. Recent examples highlight the slow response to rulings, such as a Supreme Court decision made six months ago that remains unaddressed. The treatment of individuals involved in the January 6th events has been harsh, with significant sentences handed down. There is ongoing consideration regarding the sentences of two Washington police officers who faced jail time for their actions during that incident, and there is a desire to provide them with leniency.

An order has been established to create the Department of Governmental Efficiency, known as DOS, which will hire around 20 people to ensure implementation. There is a significant issue with delays in approvals, as seen with the January 6th hostages, where processes can take weeks or months. Despite a favorable Supreme Court ruling six months ago, there has been no action. The treatment of individuals involved has been harsh, with brutal handling by judges and prosecutors. Regarding the sentencing of those who assaulted police officers on January 6th, there is a review of cases involving two Washington police officers who faced five-year sentences for their actions, and considerations are being made to offer them leniency.

Elon and DOGE decimating USAID🤣 https://t.co/4qx1b5CPd5
Video Transcript AI Summary
Okay, team, we need to address some serious budget overspending. I'm talking millions on bizarre projects like body positivity initiatives for captive Haitians, glitter bombs for Saudi Imams, and chocolate fondue for Ukrainian Hebrews.
And it doesn't stop there: McFlurries for Pakistani furries? Kool-Aid fountains for North Korean accountants? Abortion on demand for Japanese pandas?
Some of these programs are getting cut, including those Iraqi slumber parties and destigmatizing marijuana in Uganda. Sausage male dancers for Australians with COVID, gender-fluid Iraq zodiac lessons, high-speed trains for Ukrainian hermaphrodites, and sex changes for polar bears. Even Saudi Arabian easy bake ovens are in question.
And lastly, we're cutting free handgun ammunition for all USAID positions.
Now, a word from our sponsor, Hollow, the prayer app.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Okay, people. We've discovered some incredible abuses of the budget. I mean, really, where are you getting off with these insane expenditures? $10,000,000 spent on body positivity for Haitians in captivity, 8,000,000 on glitter bombs for Saudi Arabian Imams, and $9,000,000 on chocolate fondue for East Ukrainian Hebrews.
Speaker 1: They have just as much a right to chocolate fondue as anyone, you Nazi.
Speaker 0: Well, I'm sorry, but it it has to be cut
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: If you cut 10,000,000
Speaker 4: from the CFEUH budget, what's next? Cutting our $3,000,000 budget
Speaker 5: to give free McFlurries to Pakistani furries?
Speaker 0: Well, now that you bring it up
Speaker 6: Oh, come on.
Speaker 0: Oh, wow. Wow. That's, yeah. No. We're definitely cutting that.
Speaker 1: This is insanity. You're letting our budget get cut by literal babies.
Speaker 0: Because even an infant can balance these books better than you. I mean, come on, people. Come on. 50,000,000 taxpayer dollars for Kool Aid water fountains for North Korean accountants, abortion on demand for pandas in Japan, a thousand packs of Smarties for Iraqi slumber parties.
Speaker 4: If you touch any of the Iraqi slumber party budgets, I will shoot you myself.
Speaker 0: I'm sorry, but it has it has to go.
Speaker 2: This is clearly a slippery slope
Speaker 7: to canceling our program to destigmatize marijuana for Latinx folks in Uganda.
Speaker 0: Your budget for that is 9,000,000. And frankly, I think you can do it for 8.
Speaker 1: You genocidal freak.
Speaker 0: We also definitely need to cause
Speaker 8: Please not. Sausage male
Speaker 6: dancers for Australians with COVID cancer.
Speaker 0: Yes. Well, while we're at a squirt, we're going to trim. Teaching zodiac for a more genderfluid Iraq, a high speed train for hermaphrodites in Ukraine, welfare benefits for aboriginal feminists, and the 12,000,000 you are spending on sex changes for polar bears. This this just says sex changes for polar bears. It it doesn't even rhyme.
Speaker 9: It didn't mean to rhyme. It was important that I felt
Speaker 10: it didn't mean to rhyme.
Speaker 11: The only program left in my department is 12,000,000 to buy IUDs
Speaker 4: for corgis and police.
Speaker 0: Yeah. We're going to reduce that. Oh, Edward, one thing. I really think we need to be spending at most half as much as we currently are on easy bake ovens for Saudi Arabian covens.
Speaker 1: I don't wanna live. I don't wanna live. I don't wanna live.
Speaker 11: Don't do it. You have so much to live for. Like what?
Speaker 0: If it's promoting alternative fuels to Afghani polycules, I I have bad news for you. Oh, and lastly, we cut all funding for free handgun ammunition for all USAID positions. Testing one, two, three. Okay. Hollow ad take one.

“THE PUBLIC VOTER FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP, THE PEOPLE VOTED FOR MAJOR GOVERNMENT REFORM, AND THAT’S WHAT THE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET.” - @elonmusk responds to criticism of how he is running DOGE. President @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/UG9iWlFBWs
Video Transcript AI Summary
My critics, including many Democrats, accuse me of orchestrating a hostile, non-transparent government takeover. However, the public clearly voted for major government reform, which is exactly what they'll get. We're committed to transparency; our actions are posted on X and our website. We're implementing simple, basic checks and balances to ensure taxpayer money is used responsibly and correctly categorized. This isn't about individual judgment calls; it's about systemic improvements. Concerns about conflicts of interest, particularly regarding my past federal contracts, are addressed through our commitment to transparency and the implemented checks and balances. All our actions are public.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Your detractors, mister Muskelet I've what? Including a lot of Democrats.
Speaker 1: I have detractors? You do, sir. I don't believe it.
Speaker 0: Say that you're orchestrating a hostile takeover of government and doing it in a non transparent way. What's your response to that criticism?
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, you couldn't ask for a stronger mandate from from the public. The public voted, you know, that we we do have a majority of the public vote voting for president Trump, won the house, won the senate. The people voted for major government reform. There should be no doubt about that. That was on the campaign.
The president spoke about that at every rally. The people voted for for major government reform, and that's what people are gonna get. They're gonna get what they voted for. And and a lot of times that, you know, people that don't get what they voted for, but in this presidency, they are gonna get what they voted for. And that's what democracy is all about.
Speaker 0: Mister Vasquez, the White House says that you will identify and excuse yourself from any conflicts of interest that you may have. Does that mean that you are are in effect policing yourself? What are the checks and balances that are in place to ensure that there is accountability and transparency? Well,
Speaker 1: we we actually are trying to be as transparent as possible. In fact, our actions we post our actions to the the Doge handle, on x, and to the the Doge website. So all of our actions, which are are maximally transparent. In fact, I don't think there's been I I don't know the case that where where, an organization has been more transparent than the Doge organization. K.
And and so, you know and and the kind of things we're doing are, I think, very, very simple and basic. They're they're not we're we're you know, what I mentioned, for for example, about treasury, just making sure that that payments that go out, taxpayer money that goes out, is categorized correctly, that the that the the payment is explained, that organizations on the do not pay list, which are takes a lot to get there, that actually are not paid, which currently they are paid. These these are these are not individual judgment decisions. These are about simply having sensible checks and balances in the system itself to ensure that taxpayer money is spread well. So it's got nothing to do with, like, say, a contract with some company of mine at all.
Speaker 0: But if there is a conflict in of interest when it comes to you, yourself, for instance, you've received billions of dollars in federal contracts when it comes to the Pentagon, for instance, which the president, I know, has directed you to look into Yeah. Are you policing yourself in that? Is there any sort of accountability check and balance in place that would provide any transparency for the American people? Well, all of our actions are are, sec.

Video Transcript AI Summary
Our administration's primary goal is restoring democracy by fixing the broken feedback loop between the people and the government. An out-of-control, unelected bureaucracy holds excessive power, undermining the will of the people. We must also address the massive national deficit; its interest payments alone surpass the defense budget. We're finding shocking waste, fraud, and abuse—billions of dollars in improper payments, often lacking basic oversight. Simple controls like payment categorization and verification would drastically reduce this. We're working with agency heads and the President to implement common-sense reforms, increasing transparency and ensuring taxpayer money is spent responsibly. We are committed to fiscal responsibility and economic growth, benefiting all Americans. While we strive for transparency, mistakes will be made, but we will correct them promptly.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: So the, at a at a high level, if you say what is the goal of those or or and and I think a significant part of this of our presidency is to restore, democracy. This may seem like, well, are we in a democracy? Well, if you don't have a feedback loop, okay, we'd have to if you if you sorry.
Speaker 1: So I tell
Speaker 0: you gravitas can be difficult sometimes. So, if if there's not a good feedback loop from the people to to to the government, and if if you have rule of the the bureaucrat if the bureaucracy is in charge, and then then what meaning does democracy actually have? If the people cannot vote and have their will be decided by their elected representatives in the in the form of the president and and the senate and the house, then we don't live in a democracy. We live in a bureaucracy. So it's incredibly important that we close that feedback loop.
We fix that feedback loop and that the public, the public's elected representatives, the president, the house, and the senate decide what happens as opposed to an a large unelected bureaucracy. This is not to say that there aren't some good there are good people who who are in the federal bureaucracy, but but you can't have an autonomous federal bureaucracy. You have to have one that's responsive to the people. That's the whole point of a democracy. And so
Speaker 2: and if you if you looked at this if you asked looked
Speaker 0: at founders today and said, what do you think of the way things have turned out? Or We have
Speaker 3: this
Speaker 0: unelected, fourth unconstitutional branch of of government, which which is the bureaucracy, which has, in a lot of ways, currently more power than any elected representative. And this is, this is not something that people want. And it's it's not it does not match the will of the people. So it's just something we've gotta we gotta fix. And then we also gotta address the the deficit.
So we've got a a $2,000,000,000,000 deficit. And if this if we don't do something about this deficit, country's going bankrupt. I mean, it's it's really astounding that the, the interest payments alone on national debt exceed the defense department budget, which is shocking because we've got a lot we spend a lot of money on defense. But and and if that just keeps going, we're essentially gonna back up the country. So what what I really wanna say is, like, it's not optional for us to sit to reduce the federal expenses.
It's essential. It's essential for America to remain solvent as a country, and it's essential for America to have the resources necessary to provide things to its citizens and not simply be servicing vast amounts of debt.
Speaker 1: And also, could you mention some of the things that your team has found? Some of the crazy numbers including the woman that walked away with about 30,000,000, etcetera?
Speaker 0: Well, we we we are we do find it sort of rather odd that, you know, there there are quite a few, people in in in bureaucracy who who have a ostensibly a salary of a few hundred thousand dollars but somehow manage to accrue tens of millions of dollars in net worth, while they are in that position, which is, you know, what what happened to USAID. We're just curious as to where it came from. Maybe they're very good at investing. They, in which case, we should take their investment advice, perhaps. But, just there seems to be mysteriously they cut they get wealthy.
We don't know why. Where did it come from? And, I think the reality is that they're getting wealthy at taxpayer expense. That's that's the that's the honest truth of it. So, you know, we're looking at, say, we we we would just if you look at, say, say, treasury, for example, basic controls that should be in place, that are in place in in any company, such as making sure that any given payment has a payment categorization code, that there is a comment field that describes the payment, and that if it if a payment is on the do not pay list, that you don't actually pay it.
None of those things are true currently. So the reason that departments can't pass audits is because the payments don't have a categorization code. It's like just a massive number of blank checks just flying out the building. So you can't reconcile blank checks. You've got common fields that are also blank, so you don't know why the payment was made.
And then we've got this truly absurd, a do not pay list, which can take up to a year for an organization to get on a do not pay list. And and this we're talking about terrorist organizations. We're talking about, known fraudsters, known aspects of waste, known things that do not match any congressional appropriation. It can take up to a year to get on the list. And even what's on the list, the list is not used.
It's mind blowing.
Speaker 2: So so what what we're talking here, we're
Speaker 0: we're really just talking about adding common sense controls that should be present, that that haven't been present. So you say, like, well, how could such a thing arise? That's that seems that seems crazy. The when you understand that that, really, everything is geared towards complaint minimization, so that that then you understand the motivations. So if people receive money, they don't complain, obviously.
But if people don't receive money, they do complain. And and the fraudsters complain the loudest and and the fastest. So, then when you understand that, then then it makes sense. Oh, that's why everything just they approve all the payments at treasury. Because if you approve all the payments, you don't you don't get complaints.
But now now we're saying that, no. Actually, we we are gonna complain. If if money is spent badly, if the if your taxpayer dollars are not spent in a sensible approval manner, then that's not okay. Your your tax dollars need to be spent wisely on the things that matter to the people. I mean, these things like, it's just common sense.
It's not it's it's it's not draconian or radical, I think. It's it's really just saying, let's look at each each of the expenditures and say, is this actually in the best interest of people? And if it is, it's approved. If it's not, we should think about it. So, you know, there's crazy things like just cross examination of Social Security.
And we've got people in there that are 50 years old. Now do you know anyone a hundred and 50? I don't know. Okay. This they should be on the Guinness Book of World Records.
They're missing out. So, you know, that's the case where, like, I think they're probably dead. It's my guess. Or or they should be very famous. One of the two.
And then there's a whole bunch of Social Security payments where there's no identifying identifying information. Well, like, why is there no identifying information? Obviously, we wanna make we wanna make sure that people who deserve, to receive Social Security do receive it, and that they receive it quickly and accurately. Also, another another crazy thing. So, you know, one of the things is, like, we're we're trying to sort of right size the the federal bureaucracy just to make sure this obviously, needs to there needs to
Speaker 2: be a lot of people working for federal government, but not
Speaker 0: as many as as currently. So we're saying, well, okay. Well, let's if if people can retire, you know, with full benefit benefits, everything, that that would be good. They can retire, get their retirement payments, everything. And then we were told this is actually, I think, a great anecdote, because we were told the the most number of people that could retire possibly in a month is 10,000.
We're like, woah. Why why why is that? Well, because all the all the retirement paperwork is manual on paper. It's manually calculated, then written down on a piece of paper, then it goes down a mine. And, like, what do you mean a mine?
Like, yeah. There's a limestone mine where we store all the retirement paperwork that look and you look at pictures at a picture of this mine. We'll post some pictures afterwards. And this this mine looks like something out of the fifties because it was started in 1955. So it looks like it's like a time warp.
And then the the speed the the limiting factor is the speed at which the mine shaft elevator can move determines how many people can retire from the federal federal government. And the elevator breaks down and then sometimes, and then you can't nobody can retire. Doesn't that sound crazy? There's, like, a thousand people that work on this. So I think if if we take those people and say, like, you know what?
Instead of working in a in a mine shaft and, carrying Manila envelopes to, you know, boxes in a mine shaft, you could do practically anything else, and you you would add to the the goods and services of The United States, in in a more useful way. So anyway so I think, you know, that's an example. Like, at a high level, if you could say, like, how do we increase prosperity is we get people to do to to to shift from roles that are low to negative productivity to high productivity roles. And so you increase the total output of goods and services, which means that that there's a higher standard of living available for everyone. That's that's the actual goal.
Everyone's very quiet, brother. I said you don't have to nobody is quiet?
Speaker 2: You're detractors, mister Moskovic. I have
Speaker 4: to what?
Speaker 2: Including a lot of Democrats.
Speaker 0: I have detractors? You do, sir. I don't believe it.
Speaker 2: Say that you're orchestrating a hostile takeover of government and doing it in a non transparent way. What's your response to that, criticism?
Speaker 0: Well, first of all, you couldn't ask for a stronger mandate from from the public. The public voted, you know, we we have a majority of the public vote voting for president Trump, won the house, won the senate. The people voted for major government reform. There should be no doubt about that. That was on the campaign.
The president spoke about that at every rally. The people voted for for major government reform, and that's what people are gonna get. They're gonna get what they voted for. And and a lot of times that, you know, people that don't get what they voted for. But in this presidency, they are gonna get what they voted for.
And that's what democracy is all about.
Speaker 4: Mister Busk, the White House says that you will identify and excuse yourself from any conflicts of interest that you may have. Does that mean that you are in effect policing yourself? What are the checks and balances that are in place to ensure that there is accountability and transparency? Well,
Speaker 0: we we actually are trying to be as transparent as possible. In fact, our actions we post our actions to the the Doge handle, on x, and to the the Doge website. So all of our actions, which are are maximally transparent. In fact, I don't think there's been I I don't know of a case that where where an organization has been more transparent than the Doge organization. And and so, you know, and the kind of things we're doing are, I think, very, very simple and basic.
They're they're not we're you know, what I mentioned, for example, about treasury, just making sure that that payments that go out, taxpayer money that goes out is categorized correctly, that the that the the payment is explained, that organizations on the do not pay list, which are takes a lot to get there, that actually are not paid, which currently they are paid. These these are these are not individual judgment decisions. These are about simply having sensible checks and balances in the system itself to ensure that taxpayer money is spent well. So it's got nice to do with, like, say, a contract with some company of mine at all.
Speaker 4: But if there is a conflict in of interest when it comes to you yourself, for instance, you've received billions of dollars in federal contracts.
Speaker 3: When it comes
Speaker 4: to the Pentagon, for instance, which the president, I know, has directed you to look into
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Are you policing yourself in that? Is there any sort of accountability check and balance in place that would provide any transparency for the American people?
Speaker 0: Well, all of our actions are are fully public. So if you see anything, you say, like, wait a second. Hey. You know what? That doesn't that seems like maybe that's, you know, that there's a conflict there.
I I I felt like people are gonna be shy about saying that. They'll say it immediately.
Speaker 4: Including you and yourself.
Speaker 0: Yes. But it transparency is what builds trust. Not simply somebody asserting trust. So not somebody saying they're trustworthy, but transparency so you can see everything that's going on. And then you can see, am I doing something that benefits one of my companies or not?
It's totally obvious.
Speaker 1: And if we thought that we would not let him do that segment or look in that area. If we thought there was a, lack of transparency or a conflict of interest. And, we watch that also. He's he's a big businessman. He's a successful guy.
That's why we want him doing this. We don't want a an unsuccessful guy doing this. Now one thing also that, Elon hasn't really mentioned are the groups of people that are getting some of these payments. They're ridiculous. And we're talking about billions of dollars that we've already found.
We found fraud and abuse. I would say those two words as opposed to the third word that I usually use. But in this case, fraud and abuse. It's abusive because most of these things are virtually made up or certainly money shouldn't be sent to. And you know what I'm talking about.
It's crazy. So, but we're talking about, tens of billions of dollars that we've already found. And now a judge is an activist judge, wants to try and stop us from doing this. Why? And why would they wanna do that?
I campaigned on this. I campaigned on the fact that I said government is corrupt, and it is very corrupt. It's very, very, it's also foolish. As an example, a man has a contract for three months, and the contract ends, but they keep paying him for the next twenty years, you know, because nobody ends a contract. You get
Speaker 3: a lot of that. You have a
Speaker 1: contract that's a three a three month contract. Now normally, if you're in a small it's in in all fairness, it's the size of this thing is so big.
Speaker 0: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But if you have a contract and you're in a regular business, you end the contract in three months, you know it's a consult. Here's a contract for three months, but it goes on for twenty years. And the guy doesn't say that he got money for twenty years. You know? They don't say it.
They just keep getting checks month after month. And you have various things like that. And even much worse than that, actually, much worse. And I guess you call that incompetence maybe.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It could be corruption. It could be a deal's made on both sides. You know, where I guess the money he kicks I think he has a lot of kickback here. I see a lot of kickback here.
Speaker 0: There's a lot of kickback.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Tremendous kickback because nobody could be so stupid to give out some of these contracts. So he has to get a kickback. So, that's what I got elected for. That and borders and military and a lot of things, but this is a big part of it.
And I hope that the court system is gonna allow us to do what we have to do. We got elected to to, among other things, crimes, all of this fraud, abuse, all of this this horrible stuff going on. And we've already found billions of dollars, not like a little bit, billions, many billions of dollars. And when you get down to it, it's gonna be probably close to a trillion dollars. It could be close to a trillion dollars that we're gonna find.
That will have a quite an impact on the budget. And and you'll go to a judge where they handpick a judge and he has certain leanings. I'm not knocking anybody for that, but he has certain leanings. And he wants us to stop looking. How do you stop looking?
I mean, we've already found it. We have a case in New York where a hotel has paid $59,000,000 50 9 million because of because it's housing migrants, illegal migrants. All illegal, I believe.
Speaker 0: And and they were being paid twice the normal room rate at a %
Speaker 1: occupancy. Unbelievable. So it's
Speaker 0: a racket.
Speaker 3: Ask a question. If you
Speaker 0: said If if I may sort of just, going for the president's comments, at a at a high level, okay, well, what how how do what what are the two ingredients that are really necessary in order to cut the budget deficit in half from 2,000,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000,000? And it's really two things, competence and caring. And if you add competence and caring, you'll cut the budget deficit in half. And and and I fully expect to be scrutinized and get a, you know, a daily proctology exam, basically. My soldiers camp out there.
So it's not like I think I can get away with something. I'll be scrutinized nonstop. And, but with support of the president, we can we can cut the budget deficit in half from 2,000,000,000,000 to one, and then with deregulation, because there's a lot of sort of regulations that don't ultimately serve the public good. We need to free free the builders of America to build. And if we do that, that means, I think, we can get the economic growth to be maybe 4%, maybe 5%.
And that means if you can get get a trillion dollars of economic growth and you cut the budget deficit by a trillion, between now and next year, there is no inflation. There's no inflation in '26. And if the government is not borrowing borrowing as much, it means that interest costs decline. So everyone's mortgage, their car payment, their credit card bills, any hit their their their student debt, the the monthly payments broke. That's a fantastic scenario for the average American.
I mean, imagine they they go down the grocery aisle and the prices from one year to the next are the same. And their and their their, you know, their mortgage, their all their debt payments dropped. How great is that for the average American?
Speaker 1: We had no idea we had no idea we're gonna find this much. And it's open. It's it's not, like, complicated.
Speaker 2: It's It's not simple, which I did.
Speaker 1: It's like a
Speaker 2: lot of work. Yeah.
Speaker 1: You can't believe it. A lot of work. A lot of smart people involved. Very, very smart people. But, it's you're talking about anyway, maybe $500,000,000,000.
It's crazy the kind of numbers you're talking about. You know, normally when you're looking at something, you'll find you're looking for one out of a hundred. Here, you're almost reversing it. You look for one that's good.
Speaker 0: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And you can look at the title and you say, why are we doing this? Why are we doing that? And the public gets it. You know, the public gets it. You've seen the polls.
The public is saying, why are we paying all this money? This is for years this has gone on.
Speaker 3: I'm assuming most president Trump, I don't
Speaker 1: Senator Yeah. Go ahead. Wait. Go ahead.
Speaker 3: Senator Rand Paul today said that doge cuts will ultimately need a vote in Congress. Do you agree with that? Is that the plan? I I
Speaker 1: really don't know. I I know this. We're finding tremendous fraud and tremendous abuse. If I need a vote of Congress to find fraud and abuse, it'd be it's fine fine with me. I think we'll get the vote.
Although there'll be some people that wouldn't vote. And how could a judge wanna hold us back from finding all of this fraud and finding all of this, incompetence? Why would that happen? Why would even congress wanna do that now congress? If if we do need a vote, I think we get a very easy vote because we have a track record now.
We've already found billions of dollars of abuse, incompetence, and corruption. A lot of corruption.
Speaker 4: If a judge does block one of your policies, part of your agenda, will you abide by that ruling? Will you comply
Speaker 3: with this?
Speaker 1: Abide by the courts, and then I'll have to appeal it. But then what he's done is he slowed down the momentum, and it gives crooked people more time to cover up the books. You know, if a person's crooked and they get caught, other people see that and all of a sudden it becomes harder later on. So
Speaker 0: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The answer is I always abide by the courts, always abide by them, and we'll appeal. But appeals take a long time, and I would hope that a judge if you go into a judge and you show them, here's a corrupt situation. We have a check to be sent, but we found it to be corrupt. Do you want us to send this corrupt check to a person, or do you want us not to give it and give it back to the taxpayer?
I would hope a judge would say, don't send it. Give it back to the taxpayer.
Speaker 0: Yeah. If I can add to that, what we're finding is that a bunch of the fraud is not even going to Americans.
Speaker 2: So I think we can all
Speaker 0: agree that if there's gonna be fraud, it should at least go to Americans. But a bunch of the fraud rings that that are operating in in The United States and taking advantage of the federal government, especially in the entitlements programs, are actually foreign fraud rings. They're operating in other countries and actually exporting money to other countries. We should stop that.
Speaker 3: Mister Musk
Speaker 0: And and this is big what big numbers? Talking about a 200,000,000,000 a year. Serious money.
Speaker 3: Missus Musk, you said on x Yeah. That an example of the fraud, that you have cited was $50,000,000 of condoms was sent to Gaza. But after fact check this, apparently, Gaza in Mozambique, and the program was to protect them against HIV. So can you correct the statements? It wasn't sent to Hamas, actually.
It was sent to Mozambique, which makes sense why condoms was sent there.
Speaker 0: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And how can we make sure that all the statements that you said were, correct so we can trust what you're saying?
Speaker 0: Well, first of all, some of the things that I say say will be incorrect and and should be corrected. So nobody's gonna bat a thousand. I mean, any you know, we we will make mistakes, but we'll act quickly to correct any mistakes. So, you know, if if the the I'm not sure we should be sending 50,000,000 bells worth of condoms to anywhere, frankly. I'm not sure that's something Americans would be really excited about.
And that that is really an enormous number of condoms, if you think about it. But, you know, if it if it went to Mozambique instead of Gaza, I'm like, okay. That's not as bad, but still, you know, why are we doing that?
Speaker 3: Not too much. Can you talk a little bit about how closely you're working with agency heads as you're directing these cuts? Do they have the how much input do agency heads have when you're making these decisions?
Speaker 0: Yeah. We work closely with the agency heads. And, yeah. So so there there is a there are sort of checks in place. So it's not as I was just going in and doing things willy nilly.
In it's in, partnership with the agency heads. And, and I check really with the president to make sure that, you know, this this this is what the president wants to have happen. So, you know, we we talk almost every day, and and I I, you know, I I double check things to make sure is this something, mister president, do you want us to do this? Well, well, then we'll do it.
Speaker 2: USA USAID has been one of your main targets. Are you concerned at all that some of the cuts or that shutting that agency altogether may lead to diseases or other bigger problems starting in other countries that then come to to The United States?
Speaker 0: Yeah. So that that's an interesting example. So that's something where we work closely with the state department, and, secretary Rubio. And we have, for example, turned on funding for Ebola prevention, and for HIV prevent prevention.
Speaker 2: You left that?
Speaker 0: Yes. Correct. And and and we are we are moving fast, so we all make mistakes, but we'll also fix the mistakes very quickly.
Speaker 4: So Do you think that's a worthy cause? USAID?
Speaker 0: I I think that there's some worthy things, but but overall, if you say what was the bang for the buck, I would say it's it was not very good. And there was far too much of what you said I had was doing was influencing influencing elections in ways that I think were dubious and do not stand the light of day.
Speaker 3: I think I just
Speaker 4: have a follow-up to the, the the Pentagon contracts. If you have received billions of dollars in contracts from the Pentagon, and the president's directing you to look into the Department of Defense, is that possible
Speaker 0: to are going to do at at the president's request.
Speaker 4: Does that present a conflict of interest for you?
Speaker 0: No. Because you'd have to look at the individual contract and say first of all, I'm I'm not the one, you know, filing the contract. It's people at SpaceX or someone who will be putting for the contract. And I'd like to say, if if you see any contract where the the where it was awarded to SpaceX and it wasn't by far the best value of money for the taxpayer, let me know because every one of them was.
Speaker 2: The president said the other day that you might look at treasuries. Could you explain that a little bit? What kind of fraud or and that question goes to both of you. What kind of fraud are you expecting to see or do you see right now in US treasuries?
Speaker 0: Yeah. I I think you mean the the treasury department as opposed to treasury bills. Or,
Speaker 2: You also reference treasuries on Air Force One
Speaker 1: the other night. Go ahead.
Speaker 0: Well, the as I mentioned earlier, really the the first order of business is to make sure we're actually collecting sorry for this. Although my son might might enjoy this, but he's he's sticking his fingers in my ears and stuff. So it's a bit hot to hear sometimes. Hey. Stop that.
So, no. The stuff we're doing with with the Treasury Department is so basic, that you can't believe it doesn't exist already. So so so, for example, like I mentioned, just making sure that that when a payment goes out, it has to have the payment categorization codes. Like, what type of payment is this? You can't just leave the field blank.
Currently, many payments that the field's left blank. We and you have to describe what's the payment for, some basic rationalization that also is left blank. So this is why, you know, the Pentagon when's the last time the Pentagon passed an audit? I mean, decade ago maybe. I or whatever.
Really? And we wanna just in order to actually pass audits, you have to have financial information that allows you to trace the payments. So, you know, and and and once in a while, the the the the treasury has to test to pause payments, if it thinks the payment is going to a fraudulent organization. Like, if if a if a company or an organization is on a do not pay list, we should not pay it. I'm sure you would agree.
Like, if it's quite hard to get on that payment, let let me do no pay list. It means that this is someone that is just it's like dead people, terrorists, known fraudsters, that kind of thing. We should not pay them. But currently, we do, which is crazy. We should stop that.
Speaker 3: We're not gonna buy transactions.
Speaker 1: And by the way, hundreds, thousands of transactions like that. You know, we have a big team. And for the sake of the country, I hope that the person that's in charge and the other people that report to me that are in charge are allowed to do the right thing. Namely, make sure everything's honest, legitimate, and competent. But we're looking at just, when you look at USAID, that was that's one.
We're gonna look at the military. We're gonna look at education. They're much bigger areas. But the USAID is really corrupt. I'll tell you, it's corrupt.
It's incompetent and it's really corrupt. And I can't imagine a judge saying, well, it may be corrupt, but you don't have the right. You got elected to look over the country and to, as we say, make America great again, but you don't have the right to go and look and see whether or not things are right that they're paying or that things are honest that they're paying. And nobody can even believe there's other people, law professors, they've been saying, can't how can you take that person's right away? You're supposed to be running the country, but we're not allowed to look at who they're paying it to and what they're paying.
We have massive amounts of fraud that we caught. I think we probably caught way over a lot of billions of dollars already in what? Two weeks?
Speaker 0: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And it's gonna go, to numbers that you're not gonna believe. And, much as I said, much is incompetence and much is dishonesty. We have to catch it. And the only way we're gonna catch it is to look for it. And if a judge is gonna say you're not allowed to look for it, that's pretty sad for our country.
It I don't understand how it could even work.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. Ram, can you personally guarantee that
Speaker 1: Which one?
Speaker 4: The buyout program offered to federal workers? Can you personally guarantee that the workers who opt in to resign now will be paid
Speaker 3: through September?
Speaker 1: Money, but, they're getting a good deal. They're getting a big buyout. And what we're trying to do is reduce government. We have too many people. We have office space.
It's occupied by 4%. Nobody showing up to work because they were told not to. And then Biden gave him a five year pass, some of them, 48,000 of them, gave him a five year pass that for five years, you don't have to show up to work. And
Speaker 3: and let
Speaker 1: me tell you, this is largely much of this stuff is because of Biden. It's his fault. He allowed this country what he did on our border. What he did on our border is almost not as bad as what he did with, all of these contracts that have come out. It's it's a very sad day when we look at it.
I can't even believe it. But many contracts just extend and they just keep extending, and there was nobody there to correct it. And, that that cannot be I can't imagine that could be held up by the court. Any court that would say that the president or his representatives, like secretary of the treasury, secretary of state, whatever, doesn't have the right to go over their books and make sure everything's honest. I mean, how can you have a country?
You can't have anything that way. You can't have a business that way. You can't have a country that way. Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you.
We'll be at the White House tonight at about 10:00. If you wanna come over, you can say hello to Omar.
Speaker 3: Did you
Speaker 4: guys do anything in return?
Speaker 1: Not much? No. They were very nice. We were treated nicely by Russia, actually. I hope that's the beginning of a re relationship where we can end that war and, millions of people can stop being killed.
They've lost millions of people. They lost in terms of, soldiers, probably 1,500,000 soldiers in a short period of time. We gotta stop that war. And I'm interested primarily from the standpoint of death. We're losing all those soldiers.
And then not American soldiers, the Ukrainian and Russian soldiers. But but you're probably talking about a million and a half. I think I think we gotta bring that one to an end. K? Thank you.
Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Thank you, Robert. You, Robert.

The goal is to restore democracy by fixing the feedback loop between the people and the government. An unelected bureaucracy shouldn't have more power than elected representatives; it must be responsive to the people. We also need to address the $2 trillion deficit to avoid bankrupting the country. Reducing federal expenses is essential for solvency.
We've found odd instances, like bureaucrats with inexplicably high net worths. Basic payment controls are missing, leading to unauditable expenses. Payments lack categorization, comments, and proper "do not pay" lists. We're adding common-sense controls to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely. There are Social Security payments going to people over 150 years old or with no identifying information. We also want to right-size the federal bureaucracy by encouraging eligible people to retire.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: We'll take some questions. Elon, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Sure. So the, at a high level, you say what is the goal of Dojo or and I think a significant part of this presidency is to restore democracy. This may seem like, well, are we in a democracy? Well, if you don't have a feedback with FX, we'd have to sorry, gravitas can be difficult sometimes. So if there's not a good feedback loop from the people to the government and if you have rule of the bureaucrat, if the bureaucracy is in charge and then then what meaning does democracy actually have?
If the people cannot vote and have their will be decided by their elected representatives in the in the form of the president and and the senate and the house, then we don't live in a democracy. We live in a bureaucracy. So it's incredibly important that we close that feedback loop, we fix that feedback loop, and that the public, the public's elected representatives, the president, the house, and the senate decide what happens as opposed to an a large unelected bureaucracy. This is not to say that there aren't some good there are good people who who, are in the federal bureaucracy, but but you can't have an autonomous federal bureaucracy. You have to have one that's responsive to the people.
That's the whole point of a democracy. And so, and if if you look at the if you ask to look the founders today and said, what do you think of the way things have turned out? Or what we have this unelected, fourth unconstitutional branch of of government, which which is the bureaucracy, which has, in a lot of ways, currently more power than any elected representative. And this is, this is not something that people want, and it's it's not it does not match the will of people. So it's just something we've got to we've got to fix.
And we've also got to address the the deficit. So we've got a $2,000,000,000,000 deficit. And if this if we don't do something about this deficit, country's going bankrupt. I mean, it's it's really astounding that the, the interest payments alone on national debt exceed the defense department budget, which is shocking because we've got a lot we spend a lot of money on defense. But and and if that just keeps going, we're essentially gonna bankrupt the country.
So what what I really wanna say is, like, it's not optional for us to sit to reduce the federal expenses. It's essential. It's essential for America to remain solvent as a country, and it's essential for America to have the resources necessary to provide things to its citizens and not simply be servicing vast amounts of debt.
Speaker 0: And also, could you mention some of the things that your team has found, some of the crazy numbers, including the woman that walked away with about 30,000,000, etcetera?
Speaker 1: Well, we we we are we do find it sort of rather odd that, you know, there there are quite a few, people in in in the bureaucracy who have a ostensibly a salary of a few hundred thousand dollars but somehow managed to accrue tens of millions of dollars in net worth while they are in that position, which is, you know, what what happened to USAID. We're just curious as to where it came from. Maybe they're very good at investing. They, in which case, we should take their investment advice perhaps. But, just this seems to be mysteriously they they get wealthy.
We don't know why. Where does it come from? And I think the reality is that they're getting wealthy at taxpayer expense. That's that's the honest truth of it. So, you know, we're looking at, say, well, we just if you look at, say, Treasury, for example, basic controls that should be in place, that are in place in any company, such as making sure that any given payment has a payment categorization code, that there is a comment field that describes the payment, and that if it if a payment is on the do not pay list, that you don't actually pay it.
None of those things are true currently. So the reason that departments can't pass audits is because the payments don't have a categorization code. It's like just a massive number of blank checks checks just flying out the building. So you can't reconcile blank checks. You've got comment fields that are also blanks.
You don't know why the payment was made. And then we've got this truly absurd, a do not pay list, which can take up to a year for an organization to get on the do not pay list. And this we're talking about terrorist organizations, we're talking about known fraudsters, known aspects of waste, known things that do not match any congressional appropriation can take up to a year to get on the list. And even what's on the list, the list is not used. It's mind blowing.
So so what we're talking here, we're really just talking about adding common sense controls that should be present, that that haven't been present. So you say, like, well, how could such a thing arise? That's that seems that seems crazy. But when you understand that that really everything is geared towards complaint minimization, so that that then you understand the motivations. So if people receive money, they don't complain, obviously.
But if people don't receive money, they do complain. And and the fraudsters complain the loudest and the fastest. So, then when you understand that, then it makes sense. Oh, that's why everything just they approve all the payments at Treasury because if you approve all the payments, get complaints. But now now we're saying that, no, actually, we we are going to complain.
If if money is spent badly, if the if your taxpayer dollars are not spent in a sensible and approvable manner, then that's not okay. Your your tax dollars need to be spent wisely on the things that matter to the people. I mean, these things, like, it's just common sense. It's not it's it's it's not draconian or radical, I think. It's it's really just saying, let's look look at each each of the expenditures and say, is this actually in the best interest of the people?
And if it is, it's approved. If it's not, we should think about it. So, you know, there's crazy things like just cursory examination of Social Security, and we've got people in there that are 50 years old. Now do you know anyone 50? I don't.
Okay. This they should be on the Guinness Book of World Records. They're missing out. So, you know, that's a case where, like, I think they're probably dead. It's my guess.
Or or they should be very famous. One of the two. And then there's a whole bunch of Social Security payments where there's no identify identifying information. Well, why is there no identifying information? Obviously, we wanna make we wanna make sure that people who deserve, to receive Social Security do receive it.
And that they receive it quickly and accurately. Also another crazy thing. So, you know, one of the things is like we are trying to sort of right size the federal bureaucracy just to make sure this obviously needs to there needs to be a lot of people working for federal government, but not as many as currently. So we're saying, well, okay, well, let's if if people can retire, you know, with full benefits, benefits, everything, that would be good. They can retire, get their retirement payments, everything.
And then we were told this is actually, I think, a great anecdote, because we were told that the the most number of people that could retire possibly in a month is 10,000. We're like, well, why why is that?

Elon’s DOGE initiative has reportedly saved taxpayers $982 million by eliminating wasteful spending in the Department of Education. This includes cutting $881 million from 89 contracts for unnecessary studies and $101 million from DEI training grants. Trump highlighted the shocking level of waste and signed an executive order for federal agencies to collaborate with Elon’s team to combat fraud and abuse. In response, D.C. bureaucrats are protesting to protect their positions, but the focus remains on delivering results and returning funds to the American people.

🚨🇺🇸DOGE SLASHES $982M IN WASTE—EDUCATION BUREAUCRATS PANIC Elon’s DOGE just saved taxpayers $982 million by cutting wasteful spending in the Department of Education. A staggering $881 million was axed from 89 bloated contracts, including unnecessary studies on “teaching strategies” and “educational trends.” Another $101 million was saved by eliminating DEI training grants. Trump: “Nobody had any idea it was that bad, that sick, and that corrupt.” Trump signed an executive order directing all federal agencies to work with Elon’s team to root out waste, fraud, and abuse. Meanwhile, D.C. bureaucrats are in full meltdown mode, staging protests to “Save the Civil Service.” But the truth is clear—Trump and Elon are delivering real results, cutting waste, and putting money back where it belongs: with the American people.

People are angry at Elon Musk for exposing financial issues, but shouldn't we be more concerned with what politicians are doing with our money? Whether you like Musk or not, the money he's uncovering affects everyone, so gratitude might be more appropriate than hate. I believe Doge is beneficial for America. The level of corruption is mind-blowing.
People are acting emotionally instead of logically. How can politicians accumulate wealth far exceeding their salaries? Instead of questioning Musk's position, consider the bigger picture: Many of us support him, and he's working to improve America's financial standing.

Speaker 0: So you mean to tell me that people are mad at Elon Musk for finding all of this money, but nobody is mad at the Democrats for losing, for stealing, for spending, for laundering this money, or whatever they've been doing with it. See, the reality of it is, whether you like him or not, the money that Elon Musk is finding belongs to you too. So you should be thanking him instead of hating him. And call me crazy, but Doge is one of the best things that has happened to America in a very long time. The corruption that goes on in that office is deeper than you can imagine.
And it's so crazy because a lot of people are moving with emotion right now that nobody is using logic and asking their self the simplest of questions such as how are these people net worth way more than their annual salary and their only politicians? See, a lot of people are not gonna ask their self their questions because they're so busy in their feelings asking who voted for Elon. Well, obviously a lot of us voted for Elon, which is why he's in office doing a hell of a job making America wealthy again.

In under a month, the Department of Government Efficiency has already saved over $55 billion, and this is only the beginning. We're targeting trillions of dollars in waste, which will lead to significantly lower inflation and interest rates. This will also bring down payments on mortgages, credit cards, and car loans, while boosting the stock market. I believe the stock market is going to perform exceptionally well. Our strategy involves rapidly growing the economy by dramatically reducing the size of the federal government, a necessary step for our nation's prosperity.

That's nothing compared to the numbers that you're talking about. Right? We're ending trillions of dollars in waste, and it'll mean much lower inflation, lower interest rates, lower payments on mortgages, credit cards, car loans, and much higher stock markets.
I think the stock market's gonna be great. In other words, we will rapidly grow our economy by dramatically shrinking the federal government, and we have to do it.

Here's a glimpse at some wasteful spending I've uncovered. We're talking $22 billion from HHS for housing and cars for illegal immigrants, and $45 million for diversity scholarships in Burma. Millions more are going towards initiatives like sedentary migrant inclusion, LGBTQI+ promotion in Lesotho, and indigenous empowerment in Central America.
I've also found $8 million allocated to making mice transgender, $32 million for a left-wing propaganda effort in Moldova, and $10 million for male circumcision in Mozambique. There's nearly $2 billion tied to a decarbonization committee, plus millions more for fish monitoring, voter confidence in Liberia, and illegal alien hotel rooms in NYC.
Other questionable expenditures include vegan climate action in Zambia, social change in Uganda, public procurement in Serbia, learning outcomes in Asia, and a record-breaking $101 million in DEI contracts at the Department of Education.

Speaker 0: Just listen to some of the appalling waste we have already identified. $22,000,000,000 from HHS to provide free housing and cars for illegal aliens. $45,000,000 for diversity, equity, and inclusion scholarships in Burma. Forty Million Dollars to improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants. Nobody knows what that is.
$8,000,000 to promote LGBTQI plus in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of. $60,000,000 for indigenous peoples and Afro Colombian empowerment in Central America. 60 Million Dollars. 8 Million Dollars for making mice transgender. This is real.
$32,000,000 for a left wing propaganda operation in Moldova. Ten Million Dollars for male circumcision in Mozambique, Twenty Million Dollars for the Arab Sesame Street in The Middle East. It's a program. $20,000,000 for a program. $1,900,000,000 to recently created decarbonization of homes committee headed up, and we know she's involved.
Just at the last moment, the money was passed over by a woman named Stacey Abrams. Have you ever heard of her? A $3,500,000 consulting contract for lavish fish monitoring. $1,500,000 for voter confidence in Liberia. Fourteen Million Dollars for social cohesion in Mali.
Fifty Nine Million Dollars for illegal alien hotel rooms in New York City. He's a real estate developer. He's done very well. $250,000 to increase vegan local climate action innovation in Zambia. Two Million for social and behavior change in Uganda.
Fourteen Million Dollars for improving public procurement in Serbia. Forty Seven Million Dollars for improving learning outcomes in Asia. Asia is doing very well with learning. You know what we're doing. We should use it ourselves.
And $101,000,000 for DEI contracts at the Department of Education. The most ever paid, nothing even like it. Under the Trump administration, all of these scams, and they are far worse, but I didn't think it was appropriate to talk about

Speaker 0: Now more of my interview with president Trump. Moving on to Doge, judge Theodore Chuang is a federal district court judge in Maryland, has ruled against the Trump administration's efforts, mister president, to shut down USAID, ordering the government, on an accelerated basis to basically reinstate the agency's statutory functions. Your reaction to this development?
Speaker 1: Look at the fraud that we've caught. We've caught so much fraud, so much waste, so many employees that never showed up to work, and we have a judge from a very liberal state who ruled like that. So bad for our country.
Speaker 0: So I guess they closed the department. They're gonna have to reopen the department.
Speaker 1: It, I guess. Not I guess. I guarantee you. We will be appealing it. We have rogue judges that are destroying our country.
Speaker 0: Well, do you believe that at this point, given the totality of these lawsuits, it's a cavalcade of lawsuits, that your administration could be further hampered, your agenda could be slowed down. They're throwing monkey wrenches at you with these judicial rulings.
Speaker 1: Well, we have to go through an appellate process. That takes a long time. We have a judge that
Speaker 0: Do you have time?
Speaker 1: We have a judge. That's the point. We have time. We're gonna be making a lot of money because of tariffs. The good news is we've got it on we're going to very soon be on an even keel.
We're gonna be taking in a lot of money, The Trump card, the gold card, whatever they wanna call it, it's okay with me. Whatever's gonna sell better is fine with me. It'd be nice to get a piece, but I don't get a piece. Okay? I get nothing out of it.
All I do is wanna make this country successful again. We're taking in tremendous amounts of money. We have car companies that are building here who, six months ago, we're gonna build in Mexico, massive plants. They're building them in The United States. We have Honda.
It's going to Indiana. We have them opening up in Michigan. It's amazing what's happening.
Speaker 0: But judges for federal judges, district court judges, to order a sitting president to reinstate fired employees that you're the chief executive officer of The United States. You you order that these were agencies
Speaker 1: to be reviewed. Employees, many of whom didn't even report to work, many of whom were scamming this country. And you you see the same thing. Could read them off, and I did during various speeches. I read off deal after deal after deal, all big scams.
And we have a guy that wants to make a name for himself. You know, in many cases, they're just grandstanders. They wanna make a name for themselves. So we'll appeal it, and hopefully, we will meet with reasonable appeals. You know, I've won great cases on appeals.
Speaker 0: Yeah. Well, some of the maybe people weren't fired. Maybe they were temporarily put on suspended. So we'll see how this plays out, but he's very unhappy with what happened at USAID.
Speaker 1: Well, he shouldn't be. You know what he should do? He should really look at where the money went. They don't ever do wanna do that. You know, the Democrats always talk about, oh, our constitution's been violent.
The one thing they never talk about is where did these billions of dollars go? They never wanna look because when you see where the money went and the scams, it's you don't even have to see anything. Just look at the heading and the scam that they've created, and a judge like him will never look at that. They'll just say, oh, you wanna it sounds so nice. USAID.
Isn't it beautiful? But it's a whole big scam, Laura. And a judge like that is so bad for our country.
Speaker 0: Well, it'd be interesting to see whether you're able to shrink the size of this government. Every Republican president has claimed a desire to. Even Obama said we have to find waste, fraud, and abuse, but you're doing it the judges are trying to stop you.
Speaker 1: We're it. By the way, we're doing it at levels never seen before.
Speaker 0: Lunatics are setting fire to Teslas all across the country. Another horrible incident happened in Las Vegas last night. The FBI is on the scene investigating, and there is an ongoing investigation being led by Pam Bondi. In in in what you've seen so far, do you consider what's happening an act of domestic political terrorism against one of your allies?
Speaker 1: So Elon is a patriot. And, again, I I hardly knew Elon until the, you know, election. And he turned out that he liked me better than he liked these radical lunatics that were in it, better than Kamala, better than Joe, you know, because he's an intelligent person. He like and he backed me, and he went, and he got very much involved. He thought he actually would go around saying if Trump doesn't win, our country is over.
Speaker 0: But do you consider this an act of domestic terrorism?
Speaker 1: I think I think so. Why? I think that if and when they catch the people, and I hope they do, the good thing is they have a lot of cameras in those places, and they've caught some already having to do with that. I think that you will find out that they're paid by people that are very highly political on the left.
Speaker 0: Meanwhile, it's because of Elon Musk. Everything he did with SpaceX that those astronauts, stranded for nine months, they're finally coming home. Mister president, your reaction to what's unfolding.
Speaker 1: So when I came in office, I said, Elon, we gotta get them out. Do you have a rocket ship handy? How many people have a rocket? And Biden left them up. He abandoned them.
You know, we could have done this sooner, but Biden didn't want to because he was embarrassed by what happened. So they were up there. They were supposed to be there for a few days. They were there for many months. And now they're coming back.
But think of it. Elon's able to do that with his genius, and you have people that hate it. And I really believe these are people that hate our country. It's a big problem. But, you know, they don't there aren't so many of them.
There are many more that love our country, and they love our country now more than they have maybe ever in their lives. There's never been a movement like MAGA, like America First, call it, whatever you wanna call it. This is the greatest movement in the history of politics.
Speaker 0: What's the next stop for the astronauts? Are they gonna be coming to the White House?
Speaker 1: No. They're gonna number one, they have to get better. You know, when you're up there and you have no no pull in your muscle, you have no gravity, you can lift a thousand pounds like this. They have to get they have to get better. It's gonna be a little bit tough for them.
It's not easy. You know, they're up a long time. And when they do, they'll come to the Oval Office.
Speaker 0: We have a Fox News alert. President

The speaker is advocating for a US taxpayer refund due to information released by the Department of Government Efficiency, claiming Elon Musk and Doge revealed there are over 60,000 federal employee millionaires. The speaker states that when Joe Biden took office in 2021, there were approximately 70,000 federal employee millionaires, but by September 2024, that number more than doubled to 55,334, and is now estimated to be around 60,000. The speaker questions how this increase occurred, given the average federal employee salary is $86,000. The speaker notes that even the highest-paid federal employees, such as medical officers and cybersecurity personnel, earn around $250,000-$260,000 annually. The speaker expresses distrust in federal agencies and opposes paying down the deficit under these circumstances.

Speaker 0: Hi. People keep asking me why I am insisting that US taxpayers get a refund from our federal government. It's because of the information that's coming out of the Department of Government Efficiency. Today, Elon Musk and Doge released the information that there are now over a 60,000 federal employees that they think are millionaires. When Joe Biden got into office in 2021, there were only about 70,000.
But in just four years' time, that number more than doubled. They said by September of twenty twenty four, there were a 55,334 millionaires, more than double millionaires in four years. And then by now, they are assuming or estimating it to be about a 60,000 millionaires. As a taxpayer, I want to know how it happened and why did it happen. The average salary for the for a federal employee is only $86,000.
How do you take $86,000 and then all of a sudden, you become a millionaire? And that many people to become millionaires. Do you know how odd that is and how almost impossible that is? The highest paid people in the federal government are people that work in the what they call the medical officers, and those people only make about over 200,000. So you're talking about the medical offices and then people in cybersecurity, they all average about $2.50 or $260,000 a year.
But now in just a four year period of time, we are supposed to believe that they had an extra what is that? Over 70,000, 80 thousand, I'm sorry, people that became millionaires that work for the federal government. Because of that, because we are still sending our money to all of these agencies that none of us look it does not appear that we can trust any of them. It is so mind boggling to me. And they want Americans to just sit here and not say a word and say, let's just pay down the deficit.
I do not trust

Video Transcript AI Summary
Speaker 0 recalls the initial excitement and caution around Dogecoin, noting some people were euphoric while others were more cautious about its potential to cut spending. He asks David about the early perception and whether there was fear of losing work or reducing government.
Speaker 1 says it was a funny situation because it happened right before the election. He invited Dr. Paul on his show, A Neighbor's Choice, and describes an idea to challenge the “deep state” on Halloween by asking Dr. Paul to help Elon Musk cut $2,000,000,000,000. He explains he asked Dr. Paul if he’d be willing to help, and Dr. Paul responded politely, not seeking a job but willing to help if asked. This led to Elon Musk expressing interest in bringing Ron Paul on board with Doge, generating a big reaction on Twitter, with memes and images, and people saying they would support changes if Ron Paul helped Doge. After the election, however, there was no follow-up, and Speaker 1 suggests Doge did not become the dog that hunts.
Speaker 0 adds a cautious tone, saying he doesn’t like to be overly optimistic or pessimistic, but felt compelled to be cautious about Doge due to momentum from large spending, special interests, and the sacredness of liberty within democracy. He wished well but urged waiting to see what happens, noting the momentum might not last.
Speaker 2 notes the weekend exclusive that Doge does not exist with eight months left on its charter, highlighting acrimony and negative commentary about Ron Paul’s involvement. He emphasizes that Ron Paul did not intend to join any administration and would help any party that wanted to actually cut government. He suggests it’s easy to become black-pilled about the situation. He contends the president has been captured by DC, describing Gaza, a bloodbath in Gaza, Venezuela, and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war as ongoing issues. He asserts that Doge was massively popular and that Trump rode that wave into the White House with libertarian support, but as Trump veered away from that stance, his numbers dropped despite claims of improvement on Truth Social. He argues Trump’s declining numbers are evident in major polls, and that the deep state influenced the situation, with the deep state running DC.
Overall, the discussion centers on the rise and decline of Doge’s political relevance, Ron Paul’s involvement, Elon Musk’s role, and the broader political environment including Trump’s trajectory, foreign conflicts, and the influence of the “deep state.”

Speaker 0: You know, there is something in the news that I think you know a little bit about and paid a little bit of attention to, and you had the right understanding when it was started when a few people got euphoric about it. But there were a few that were a little more cautious about, you know, Doge. You know? Now how what was it gonna do? Was it gonna cut spending?
And it it was something that it was easy to be cynical if you came from a libertarian view. But, David, do you remember that that event when it was started? Tell me, were you super excited? I'm gonna be out of work. There won't be anything to talk about.
Government's gonna be cut way back. What are we gonna do? Well,
Speaker 1: I tell you
Speaker 0: that.
Speaker 1: You know, I tell you what, it was a funny story because it was right before the election, and I asked to have you on, doctor Paul, on my, show, A Neighbor's Choice. And I said, okay. What am I gonna talk about? They and you said you're available for your team said he was that you'd be available for Halloween. And I thought, I I got an idea.
I'll give the deep state a real fright on Halloween. I'll see if I can get doctor Paul to say he'd help Elon. Let me see if I can get a a yes out of you. So I had you on, and I said, hey. Elon wants to cut $2,000,000,000,000.
I think we know the one guy who'd hold him accountable to that. That'd be you, doctor Paul. Would you be willing to help? And, of course, you were very polite and, you know, you said, well, you know, I'm not looking for a job, but I'd be glad to help if he asked. And, all of a sudden, we put that out on Twitter and boom, it's blowing up all over, becomes the number one trending topic.
Your name is going all over Twitter. And Elon finds it and says, I'd love to have Ron Paul join Doge too. And all of you all of a sudden, it's a huge sensation. And he's posting funny memes and images, and people are saying, you know, I wasn't gonna vote for Trump, but if Ron gets to help Doge, then I'll crawl through glass to see that happen. So a lot of people were absolutely thrilled and actually made a big impact.
But, unfortunately, when I saw that they didn't follow-up after the election with you, I said, you know, I think Doge is not gonna be the dog that hunts after all. You know?
Speaker 0: You know, I I never like to be overly optimistic. I I never want to leave everything very down, trodden, and then the world's coming to an end. People should have hope. But in this case, when this came out, I I really, really had to be cautious. I mean, I wished him well, and I'm sure a lot of good libertarians did because there were some good things in there.
But I remember expressing this to many people, may have even on the program, that let's wait and see what happens because there's too much momentum. The momentum is there because the the treatment is so horrendous, and that is when you have all this spending and all these special interests and and this this sacredness sacredness of liberty of democracy. Anybody who can put a majority together can get what they want and the wars that were going on. So I was rather pessimistic, but I kept encouraging it. But it seems like it's not gonna last forever.
It didn't didn't seem to you that it was doing so well at the beginning, then it sort of faded away quick quickly, but they were trying to close the door and not have us notice.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, mean, the reason we're talking about it is it came out over the weekend. Exclusive DOAGE doesn't exist with eight months left on its charter. You know, there's a lot of acrimony and recriminations about it and, people with negative comments and saying, oh, you know, why why did Ron Paul sign on to this? But, you know, what people don't understand, like you like, David said from the beginning, you weren't joining any administration. You would help any any any party that wanted to actually cut government.
And so, Mayne, I think it's easy for us to sit back and be black pilled about the whole thing. Gosh. What could have been? And indeed, the president, unfortunately, has been captured by DC. He's been sucked into the vortex of endless foreign adventures.
He calls them peacemaking, but it's peacemaking with warships. So, you know, we've got Gaza. We've got we've got a bloodbath in Gaza. We've got Venezuela. We've got the ongoing Ukraine Russia war, on and on and on.
And, unfortunately, as both of you gentlemen know, two things. One, Doze was massively popular. And, David, you're right. I mean, he rode that wave. President Trump rode that wave into the White House.
That in libertarian support, rode that into the White House, because it was massively popular. And now that he's veered away from that, look at his numbers. His numbers are in the tank. Despite what he says on Truth Social that his numbers are better than ever, someone underneath that post over the weekend posted the every one of the major polls, and he's down double digits. So it's unpopular to do what he's doing.
He should have listened to Elon. Should He have listened to Ron Paul. He should have gone the Doge route. It's not completely his fault. Congress has a huge role because that's where it hit a brick wall.
But the you know, president Trump does carry a lot of weight, and he could have pushed a lot through if he'd focused on it. But sadly enough, the deep state got him. The d state runs DC.
