The massive bloat in government spending allows politicians to hide their pet projects. For example, Stacey Abrams' climate group, with a revenue of only $100, is slated to receive $2 billion. There's outrage over Elon Musk's team accessing IRS data, yet the Biden administration allowed 53 unpaid researchers and students full access to the American people's data at the IRS. They're okay with waste, fraud, and abuse as long as their special interest groups are funded and their ideology is promoted, regardless of the will of the American people. Our country can't survive this. We are thankful that Donald Trump and his team are saying enough is enough and will begin the process of restoring a constitutional republic.

Government waste is everywhere, in every department, program, and contract. To tackle America's 36 trillion dollar debt, we need to examine all areas. On the oversight subcommittee, we'll investigate government-funded media like NPR, which spreads propaganda. We'll also scrutinize grant programs that fund projects like sex apps in Malaysia and toilets in Africa, programs that don't benefit Americans. I also want to address the Pentagon about their missing billions and failed audits.

We're going to run the federal government like a business: money in, money out. We'll focus spending on what advances America's interests. That's our goal. Anything else is fear-mongering by the left, who lack a real message and are, frankly, deranged.

For the last couple of weeks, Democrats have been attacking those who are exposing wasteful spending instead of focusing on stopping the spending. This underscores the fundamental difference between the left and conservatives. The left thinks bureaucrats are smarter than the American people. I'd rather trust the 77 million people who elected President Trump to identify the dumb things that taxpayer money is going towards. They're attacking the people President Trump put in charge. You can't question the bureaucrats, even though the smartest bureaucrat, Dr. Fauci, was wrong about many things. They even tried to set up a disinformation governance board to tell us what we can and can't say. I'll trust the guy elected by 77 million Americans to focus on stopping the stupid spending. We have a $36 trillion debt. We should pass Mr. Siskamani's bill again this year.

Trump says the administration removed wasteful items from the budget, which upset Congresswoman Ocasio Cortez and the socialist wing of the Democratic Party. They took out items that existed under President Biden and are demanding they be put back in. Examples cited include: $3,000,000 for circumcision and vasectomies in Zambia; $500,000 of American taxpayer money for electric buses in Rwanda; $3,600,000 for pastry cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti. I kid you not. $6,000,000 for media organizations for the Palestinians; $833,000 for transgender people in Nepal; $300,000 for a pride parade in Lesotho; $882,000 for social media and mentorship in Serbia; $4,200,000; $4,200,000 for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex people in the Western Balkans and Uganda. The congresswoman and the socialist wing threaten to shut down the government till we get this back in. The fight is about putting this back in the bill.

The same Democrats who said we couldn't fix the border are now seeing border crossings down 95% in just one month. We've uncovered $100 billion in waste, Sean. Think of what we could do for suffering Americans, our schools, healthcare, and infrastructure with that money! Imagine four years of these kinds of savings once we get into the rest of the agencies. Nobody thought giving millions to Guatemalan programs was a good use of funds. The possibilities are endless, and the American people are finally seeing what's possible. We are going to unleash all of that. I couldn't be prouder of what we are doing.

"You may assert there's no waste in the Pentagon. You may assert there's no waste in treasury." "If you agree there is corruption, why are you not celebrating the cuts, the reforms that are being instituted?" "The taxpayers fund it. They pay for it." "The illegal aliens he brought in from Venezuela, from Haiti, from Nicaragua, they are not doing farm work." "Are in our cities collecting welfare." "They funnel money to their cronies all over the world through a swampy network of NGOs, nongovernmental organizations." "What Democrats are saying is they oppose democracy itself." "We and president Trump are on the side of democracy."

Democrats were invited to participate and bring witnesses, but they chose not to, likely because USAID's spending is indefensible, like $2 million for sex change surgeries in Guatemala and $3 million for girl-centric climate change initiatives. If USAID has unspent funds, can the President impound them? Auditing spending is essential oversight. We're uncovering waste, like $4.8 million for social media influencers in Ukraine. Forcing a social agenda, like LGBT issues, on conservative countries harms diplomacy. We're finding this waste because we have a president with the courage to oversee USAID. The CFO of FEMA was fired for spending $54 million on luxury hotels for illegal aliens. The Lincoln Riley's killer was put up in a luxury hotel in New York. Can the President impound funds, or should we rescind them through Congress? A pause in funding for an audit is just good government.

Biden's USAID has wasted taxpayer money on questionable projects: $1.5 million for DEI in Serbia, $2 million for sex changes in Guatemala, $6 million for tourism in Egypt, and $15 million for contraceptives in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. This spending is alarming for American taxpayers. President Trump aims to stop such funding, addressing issues like USAID's support for Hamas. The urgency for change has never been clearer, especially after blocking funds that could aid terrorism. The backlash from Democrats and media against figures like Elon Musk shows their discomfort with these reforms. Musk's efforts align with Trump's mission to eliminate wasteful spending and restore accountability in government.

Government waste is everywhere, in every department, program, and contract. To tackle the $36 trillion national debt, we need to examine all areas. As part of the oversight subcommittee, we will investigate government-funded media like NPR, which spreads Democrat propaganda. We will also scrutinize grant programs that fund projects like sex apps in Malaysia and toilets in Africa, which do not benefit Americans. Furthermore, we need to question the Pentagon about their inability to account for billions of dollars annually and their repeated audit failures.

Unelected judges are attempting to control government spending, violating the separation of powers. This is happening to people like Elon Musk, a great man, and it's outrageous. People work hard and pay taxes, only to see their money spent on things like $2,000,000 for sex changes in Guatemala. This will stop. We're fighting back against agencies like USAID. This is happening daily, but the DOJ is prepared to defend these cases. We are committed to carrying out President Trump's agenda.

We're streamlining the federal government, and already over 40,000 federal bureaucrats have taken buyouts, saving taxpayers millions. Elon Musk and his team are cutting bloat, and Secretary of State Rubio has significantly reduced USAID staff. The media is calling this the "Trumppocalypse," while Democrats express concerns about the speed and precision of these changes, worrying about psychological warfare and retribution. But many feel that it is about time after years of tiptoeing around DEI and seeing our money wasted. Democrats are now criticizing government audits, yet they're shocked when we address wasteful spending, like millions on foreign projects. We're putting the government on a diet. Fraudsters complain the loudest when someone is actually doing something about fraud. We're exposing government theft, like millions spent on trans surgeries in Guatemala and studies on transgender animals, because the Democrats have been sucking off the teat of government for decades.

I've issued a deadline for agencies to submit waste reduction plans. Failure to comply will result in tech support intervention, which is essentially what my team is doing – fixing outdated government computer systems. We aim to find a trillion dollars in savings to prevent national bankruptcy. Every agency will have a "mini Elon Musk" to justify spending. We're freezing government credit cards for 30 days and doing a pulse check via email to see if employees are real and responsive, we suspect some are dead or even fictional. Some people are upset with our aid to Ukraine which has been spent on things like fashion shows, wine, and cheese puffs. Providing money to LGBTQ individuals in Serbia is also coming under fire. Some are questioning the loyalty of Elon Musk because of this. The Biden years proved we don't even need an active president, because institutions are running everything behind the scenes.

Joe Biden has wasted a trillion dollars in less than three years, causing inflation that hurts working families. To stop inflation and save the economy, we need to cut spending, but not at the expense of American families and seniors. The president should have the power to refuse unnecessary spending, as Thomas Jefferson did. The Impoundment Control Act of 1974, which curtailed this power, is unconstitutional and needs to be challenged. When I return to the White House, I will fight to overturn this act and use impoundment to save money. This will not affect national defense, Medicare, or Social Security. The funds saved can even be used to strengthen Medicare and Social Security. Impoundment will also help control spending and eliminate the deep state and globalists from our government. It's a pro-growth, pro-American, and pro-freedom policy that only I can accomplish.

Let's put aside the fear mongering. No one in the Trump administration has advocated using Social Security money for other purposes. However, there are real questions about spending. The other side calls funding pauses illegal, but pausing spending for a month isn't impoundment. This is a separation of powers issue. I voted against repurposing money for the wall. When money was stopped at USAID, $2,000,000 was found for sex changes in Guatemala. Should a president be able to execute their policy? The bureaucracy is unmovable and skewed towards spending more. Should we spend millions on things like girl-centric climate change in Brazil or microaggressions among obese Latinx individuals? Scrutiny is good. I want the discovery of waste to lead to permanent change. The minority party likely won't want to cut funding for things like sex changes in Guatemala. If we can save money, like $200,000,000 on an aircraft carrier, we should do a rescission package and fill our $2,000,000,000,000 deficit.

The American people are tired of their tax dollars being wasted. For the first time, this president is committed to restoring accountability at every level of the federal government. If you agree there is waste, abuse, and corruption, why are you not celebrating the cuts and reforms that are being instituted? We are saving Americans billions of dollars and ending the theft, waste, grift, and corruption. We are stopping American taxpayer dollars from subsidizing a rogue federal bureaucracy that has been relentlessly weaponized against the American people. We care about this issue. The American public overwhelmingly supports what President Trump is doing.

The DOGE program is targeted at bureaucrats. Take the Department of Education, for example. They have a budget of about $280 billion a year, but less than 25% goes to educating students. The other $220 billion goes to bureaucracy, consultants who donate money back to Democrats, NGOs—it's money laundering. You can find this in almost every agency. The brilliance of DOGE is not that he is cutting spending, he doesn't have the authority to do that, we do. I want him to create a report, going agency by agency, identifying programs we shouldn't fund, and attaching a number to it. We then put a preamble on the front of that report and say every agency's budget will be cut by X amount as shown in the report, and none of those programs can continue.

We are halting all grant funding to NGOs that facilitate illegal immigration. Millions of taxpayer dollars have been misused to support this issue, and we are reevaluating how these funds are spent to ensure they strengthen our country and enhance safety. Many NGOs operate not only in the U.S. but also in Mexico, encouraging illegal immigrants to cross the border. Initially, I viewed NGOs as charitable organizations, but I've come to see that some function as shadow governments, using taxpayer money for actions the federal government cannot legally undertake. This has compromised our national security, and we will no longer support these operations with federal funding.

Under president Biden, they were spending $3,000,000 for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia; we took that out. The congresswoman says, we're gonna shut down government till you put that back in. We found $500,000 for electric buses in Rwanda and $3,600,000 for pastry cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti—again, we took it out. Ocasio Cortez and the socialist wing of the Democratic Party say we gotta put these back in or shut the government down. They demand: $6,000,000 for media organizations for the Palestinians; $833,000 for transgender people in Nepal; $4,200,000 for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex people in the Western Balkans and Uganda. We took all that out; it upsets Ocasio Cortez, and they threaten all other Democrats to shut down the government till they get what they want.

We're announcing that we've halted all grant funding to NGOs that facilitate illegal immigration. It's shocking how much federal money has been misused in this way. I've taken action to reevaluate these funds to ensure taxpayer dollars are used to strengthen our country and keep it safe. We need to scrutinize how federal grants are utilized. No more money will be spent to undermine our nation. We will uphold President Trump's commitment to secure our border, remove those here illegally, and ensure taxpayer funds are not used to support this situation.

Republicans should not cut Medicare or Social Security to pay for Biden's spending. Biden has wasted trillions on the Green New Deal and opened our borders to migrants from prisons and mental institutions. Our border is now the worst in the world. Instead of burdening American families and seniors, we should cut spending on corrupt foreign countries, mass releases of illegal aliens, left-wing gender programs in the military, climate extremism, and waste fraud and abuse. We must save Social Security and not let the Democrats destroy it.

I'm uncovering fraud by showing how money isn't reaching its intended destination but is instead being diverted, which goes against what Congress intended. Uncovering fraud should be viewed positively, and it's puzzling why anyone would defend it. We're working to address waste, inefficiency, fraud, and the weaponization of agencies. A prime example is USAID, which misuses taxpayer money to promote unwanted ideologies and destabilize foreign policies. It is common sense to stop funding these things. We aim to address this issue across all agencies, ensuring taxpayer dollars are used responsibly and effectively.

Secretary: Today, we are announcing that we have stopped all grant funding that's being abused by NGOs to facilitate illegal immigration into this country. It's amazing to me the hundreds of millions of dollars that have been spent by the federal government that has been sent to NGOs to facilitate this invasion of our country. I have taken action to stop that funding, to reevaluate it, and to make sure that we're actually using taxpayer dollars in a way that strengthens this country and keeps us safe. People are curious how grants given out by federal agencies are utilized, and that evaluation needs to be done. We're not spending another dime to help the destruction of this country. We're going to follow through on what president Trump promised, to secure our border, depart those who are here illegally and committing criminal actions, and ensure taxpayer dollars aren't spent to assist it. Speaker: And, Madam Secretary, I don't think people fully understand the role that NGOs play in facilitating illegal immigration. I want to share these numbers up on the screen: we spend over $380,000,000 in 2024 for sheltering and service programs for illegal immigrants. But the vast network of NGOs that help facilitate it through Panama, through Mexico, and make it a landing spot here in the United States is a massive contributor to illegal immigration. So what you're telling us today is that now stops? At least the federal funding of that stops? Secretary: Yes. The Department of Homeland Security has stopped spending those dollars to fund those NGOs. What’s been revealing is that many of these NGOs actually have infrastructure and operations set up in Mexico on that side of the border, telling illegal immigrants to come to them, and they will get them across the border. So they're not just operating in the United States. They're operating outside of the United States to help make it easier for those who want to break our laws. And while I was one of those Americans years ago when somebody said NGO to me, I thought, oh, that's amazing—a nonprofit telling somebody about Jesus or spreading faith and charitable work, helping people less fortunate. Then I realized over the years it's been perverted into this shadow government. An NGO is sometimes an operation that does things the government cannot do, can't legally do, so they create an entity to use government dollars, taxpayer dollars, to do something that the federal government isn't allowed to do—to perform a shadow government operation that has recently been used to undermine our country's national security.

President Trump promised to review federal spending, and that's what Musk is doing. Some Democratic colleagues are upset about this review, but it's necessary. For four years, the focus has been on who should pay more taxes, while Republicans are asking where the money went. Examples of questionable spending include $520 million for ESG investments in Africa and $45 million for DEI scholarships in Burma. Democrats are not defending this spending but are instead focused on process and authority. Musk has the president's backing to examine these expenditures. It would be beneficial to compile this spending into a booklet and publicly address each item, challenging Democrats to defend it, which they likely cannot do.

The American people are sick of the lies, cheating, and spending. We're seeing the climax of living beyond our means, fueled by the dollar's reserve currency status. The country is bankrupt, morally and financially, with moral bankruptcy leading to abuse of power. Some in Congress want to cut back spending, but there are loopholes. Congress is not doing its job by passing appropriation bills. Trump is asking Republicans to vote for a bill that largely maintains current spending levels, with an additional $8 billion for military spending. They are always trying to kick the can down the road, they are not cutting spending. The whole system is massive, abused, and immoral. It's going to take some time to fix this issue.
