Okay, people, we need to address these budget abuses! Millions are being spent on bizarre programs like body positivity for captive Haitians, glitter bombs for Saudi Imams, and chocolate fondue for East Ukrainian Hebrews. And don't even get me started on the McFlurries for Pakistani furries, which are getting cut. We're also cutting funds for Kool-Aid water fountains for North Korean accountants, abortion on demand for pandas in Japan, and Smarties for Iraqi slumber parties. Other cuts include destigmatizing marijuana in Uganda and sausage male dancers for Australians with COVID cancer. We are also trimming expenses for teaching zodiac to Iraq, high-speed trains in Ukraine, welfare for aboriginal feminists, and sex changes for polar bears. We are reducing spending on IUDs for Corgis, easy-bake ovens for Saudi covens, alternative fuels for Afghani polycules, and free handgun ammunition for USAID positions.

Congress is rushing to pass a $1.7 trillion spending package without balancing the budget. Examples of wasteful spending include $2.3 million on injecting beagles with cocaine, $700,000 studying how male parrots attract mates, $187,000 on studying if dogs help kids cope, and $118,000 on studying if a robot of Marvel's Thanos can snap its fingers.

We've stopped the $8,000,000 in taxpayer subsidies for Politico subscriptions. The team is working to cancel the payments immediately. Large organizations inevitably miss things. Claims of widespread waste and abuse haven't been substantiated with evidence. We haven't seen proof of the alleged misuse of funds.

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.

I looked into Norm Eisen's NGO, State United Democracies Center, which is full of prominent figures. This organization receives $17 million in private donations. After researching, the only thing I could find that they did with the money was produce a low-quality Muppet show. All the videos they created with these knockoff puppets have less than 200 views. It makes you wonder, with all those famous names involved, is that the best thing they could do with $17 million? The result is awful; Jim Henson would be rolling in his grave. They didn't even promote the videos with ads. So, where did the $17 million go?

American tax dollars funded various projects last year, raising questions about their effectiveness. Examples include grants for drag shows in Ecuador, a butterfly study in Germany, and a Sergeant Pepper's exhibit in Brooklyn. Other projects involved a smart toilet study, research on colonial Mexican soundscapes, and a study on seatbelts and helmets in Ghana (despite existing US data). Funding also went to a Yoko Ono art installation, a Napa Valley walking trail, a Hawaiian farmers market, the Metropolitan Opera's fire suppression system, and a study of Parisian butchers' private language. Additionally, taxpayer money supported a climate futurism conference using the parable of the sower and a study on influencing climate change skeptics. Nearly a billion dollars was spent on border facilities, averaging around $500 per person crossing illegally. Ultimately, the question remains: are these the best uses of taxpayer money?

I'm concerned about the scrutiny USAID is facing. It's an organization that promotes national security, human rights, and global health. But, some USAID projects are questionable uses of taxpayer money. For example, millions of dollars have gone to tourism in Egypt, a Democratic Party propaganda arm, transgender opera in Colombia, sex changes in Guatemala, bat research in Wuhan, and even a new Sesame Street show in Iraq. These expenditures raise serious questions about how taxpayer money is being spent. We need to take a closer look at these allocations.

Here's the latest edition of wasteful spending courtesy of USAID. Over $849,000 is going to a transgender job fair in Bangladesh, where the median monthly income is around $220. Nearly $2,000,000 will fund sex change surgeries in Guatemala, provided by a trans-led organization. Millions more are allocated to various global initiatives, including $55,000,000 to strengthen Libyan financial processes, $20,000,000 for an Iraq Sesame Street program, and smaller amounts for similar programs in Bangladesh and Nigeria. We're also spending $22,000,000 to boost tourism in Tunisia and Egypt. Additionally, funds are directed towards climate change initiatives in Africa ($520,000,000), green transportation in Georgia ($24,400,000), and LGBTQ+ support in various countries like Uganda ($5,500,000) and North Macedonia ($1,300,000). Even China is getting $5,000,000 to reduce carbon emissions. This is just the latest list of wasteful spending. Time for change.

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.

Is this how we want to spend American taxpayer dollars? We've identified questionable expenditures, like a State Department grant for drag shows in Ecuador and a National Science Foundation study on butterflies in Germany. Other examples include funding for a display on Yoko Ono's art, a wine trail in Napa Valley, and a farmers market in Hawaii. We also spent nearly a million dollars studying climate change impacts on driving in Ghana and researching how to influence climate change skeptics. Additionally, $991 million was spent on temporary facilities at the border. With $31 trillion in federal debt, we need to prioritize spending and ensure oversight to avoid waste.

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.

Here's the Doge report for today. $3 million is going to steroid-enhanced hamster fighting studies. Just go to any bar and watch a fight. $2.3 million is for studying cocaine effects on beagles? Get a Coachella ticket instead. $600,000 is for parrot romance – important, of course. $500,000 on racial aggression in mice? They just want food. $1.1 million is for training mice to binge drink; visit any college frat or sorority. $2.1 million goes to encouraging Ethiopians to wear shoes, while I can't even get my kid to wear shoes. $187,000 is verifying kids love their pets? Most people like pets more than humans. $2.7 million is studying Russian cats on treadmills; let's get Americans on those instead. $875,000 is studying cocaine effects on quail mating; just go to a party. That's where your money is going.

Congress released a 1,012-page bill with a $1 trillion price tag full of questionable spending. Examples include $850,000 for a gay senior citizen home in Boston, $15 million for Egyptian college tuition, and $400,000 for a group teaching elementary school kids about being trans. Even a posthumous earmark for Dianne Feinstein. The bill also includes $500,000 for an anti-racist nature program at the San Diego Zoo. This bill, signed by Biden, will spend taxpayer money recklessly.

Welcome to the Department of Government Efficiency. We reviewed last year's budget and found some questionable expenditures. First, the National Pillow Fluffing Initiative, costing over a million dollars, is being cut. The Bureau of Elevator Music Standards, at $800,000 a year, is also under scrutiny. The National Velcro Noise Study is unnecessary; it's clear Velcro noise is annoying without spending a million. While the program for ice cube uniformity is appealing, it doesn't justify the cost. The American Cloud Watching Fund is similarly excessive. Lastly, the Federal Kazoo Orchestra Grant and the Federal Bureau of Traffic Cone Counting, which reported 256,343 cones, raise concerns about spending priorities. We need to ensure taxpayer money is used wisely.

Hello, fellow citizens and taxpayers. Today, I'm sharing highlights from Senator Rand Paul's annual Festivus report, exposing wasteful government spending. We've spent billions on empty federal buildings, millions on pickleball complexes in Las Vegas, and even funded Ukrainian influencers. Absurdly, money went to girl-centered climate action in Brazil, fighting terrorism with soccer, and diversity in bird watching. We're also burning cash on interest payments for our massive national debt, funding social media expansion in Ethiopia, and backing magic-related projects. Border security in Paraguay got millions, while our own border remains vulnerable. There was money spent on COVID experiments on cats and spinning kittens for science. Unbelievably, $20 million went to Sesame Street in Iraq. This is a fraction of the billions wasted last year alone. Check the 2024 Rand Paul Festivus report and see how your tax dollars are being squandered.

THE DOGE report alleges that funds are siphoned from the public through NGOs and government contracts. The speaker cites two examples: "Senator Sheldon White house is under the hot seat right now because he backed the legislation that approved $14,200,000 to go to ocean conservatory." A second case concerns "Family Endeavors" in Pecos, Texas, meant for overflow of immigrant children; it has been empty since 02/2021, while "we have been paying 18,000,000 million dollars a month" to keep it open. A board member was "one of Biden's transition team members." The presenter then says, "This is my opinion only. From this point on, everything I've told you so far is facts. You can go look it up online. This is my opinion only. I call that a payoff." They conclude, "That is how they steal from you. That is today's DOGE report."

Doge started unraveling government spending, revealing allocations like $200,000,000 for transgender experiments on monkeys. This is claimed to be just the tip of the iceberg. The speaker references a map of 50,000 NGOs, alleging it was exposed as a Democratic propaganda machine with money being funneled in a circular fashion.

The speaker describes spending in Los Angeles on homelessness, stating that last year $13,000,000,000 was used to combat homelessness in the city. They claim that this money went to “these trash nonprofits” where “a bunch of executives” earn “half a $1,000,000 a year.” The speaker asserts, “You’re working for a nonprofit dealing with homelessness. That’s my money. That’s my parents’ money.” They emphasize that hardworking people of California pay incredibly high taxes that fund this through the claimed expenditures. The speaker connects this spending to the broader political perspective by saying they are sick of it and describe their experience on the ground in California as causing them to question a lot about left-wing ideology.

DOGE cited government projects that may have been taxpayer funded. One was a $265,000 project to find out why Black, Indigenous, people of color like to read Japanese comic books. The speaker found the contract on the Institute of Museum and Library Services website. It was a three-year research project at Queen's College in New York, costing around $313,000. Another project was $250,000 for LGBTQ plus historical plaques in Ohio. The speaker found the contract on the website; the exact amount spent was $249,810. The plaques are scattered throughout Ohio in places of significance or about people of significance in the LGBTQ plus community. The University of Tennessee was given $400,000 to study LGBTQ library users' metadata. The grant was actually for around $393,000. The goal was to find out how to make libraries more accessible for LGBTQ plus users when searching databases.

Millions of taxpayer dollars are funding various LGBTQ+ organizations and initiatives. I've uncovered examples ranging from Transgender Equity Consulting to the Gay Men's Health Crisis, totaling tens of millions. These funds also support programs addressing homelessness and substance abuse within the LGBTQ+ community, as well as safe spaces for transgender youth. I support individual freedoms but question the massive spending and its possible connection to covert operations. The scale of funding makes the transgender movement appear less organic and more orchestrated. I believe gay people are being manipulated, and their history shouldn't be conflated with the transgender movement. I also want to highlight the significant funding of dance-related projects worldwide, a topic I'll discuss later.

Do any of you still like America? It's shocking that people are upset about Doge while our government has been wasting money on ridiculous projects for years. For example, $7 million on magic studies, $1.5 million using kittens to study motion sickness, and $6.9 million on smart toilets that recognize users. We spent $118,000 to see if a metal Thanos could snap his fingers and $75,000 on a study of lizards blown off trees with leaf blowers. In 2023, $150.7 billion went to those protesting and burning flags. If you don’t like America, feel free to leave. Those in power are benefiting from this global money laundering, and it’s time to reconsider where you stand.

Do you think the government spends too much money? Absolutely, it's a given. Recently, they spent $750,000 to study whether it was one small step for a man or one small step for mankind during the moon landing. How is that justified? It's ridiculous. Then there's a million dollars spent to see if cocaine makes Japanese quail more sexually promiscuous. Who cares about quail? And $100,000 to determine if tequila or gin makes sunfish more aggressive? That's absurd. These expenditures are not a good use of taxpayer dollars, especially when you consider how much is spent on military funding.

I've been looking into Norm Eisen's NGO, State United Democracies Center, which has prominent figures like Janet Napolitano and Michael Steele involved. This organization received $17 million in private donations, and after digging around, all I could find was that they produced a low-quality Muppet show. The puppet videos have less than 200 views each. With such notable people involved and a budget of $17 million, it's shocking that their main project seems to be this poorly received Muppet series. They didn't even try to promote the videos. I wonder where the $17 million went?

I question what happened to the $17 million, considering the poor quality and lack of promotion of the Muppet show.

The transcript claims that people protesting against ICE do not realize their rights were “completely violated” the previous day by the California State Legislature. It states that, in the Assembly, Democrats advanced a potential per-mile tax by a simple majority vote, asking the California Transportation Commission for recommendations by 2027 to implement a per-mile tax charging “two to nine cents for every single mile” driven. The speaker says this would cost families about $1,200 to $4,200 extra each year, depending on how estimates turn out, and describes it as punishing people for needing to fulfill work and family obligations. The transcript also claims the US House decided that cars made past 2026 should continue to have kill switches, describing this as a decision made by the Biden administration. It argues that if California sends monthly or quarterly per-mile-tax bills and someone refuses to pay, the government could “kill switch” the car, meaning that refusing payment would prevent driving. Finally, the speaker says the public is “supposed to trust them with our money,” citing a report about a homelessness program run by Newsom. The transcript claims that $11 to $12 million was spent, but the program helped only 22 people, and characterizes that outcome as “absolutely ludicrous.”
