The President of the United States is in charge of the government. He appoints advisors, like Elon Musk and others at the White House, to execute his commands across federal agencies. Recently, Elon Musk claimed transparency at Doge, stating their actions are posted on X and their website. Regarding the termination and subsequent rescinding of 300 employees at the National Nuclear Security Administration, the Secretary of Energy would be responsible for those decisions. Under President Trump, the goal is accountability and transparency in federal spending. For example, where did the $22 billion that the Department of Health and Human Services provided to illegal aliens go? That's enough to provide a free house to every homeless veteran in America.

If you oppose Elon Musk and Doge's federal audit, you're involved in money laundering. We deserve to know how our tax dollars are spent. The government's wasteful spending is outrageous; they spend money on ridiculous things, like studying Thanos' snap and animal surgeries. They also wasted billions in USAID. It's time for a federal audit—a 10% audit is needed because the government is constantly interfering in our lives. Finally, someone is holding them accountable. Tomorrow's Super Bowl will feature Elon Musk's $40 million ad campaign exposing government waste. This is fantastic news!

President Trump promised to shut down the retirement cave, a promise highlighted with Elon Musk in the Oval Office, exposing the federal retirement system's antiquated processes. The media's silence revealed their ignorance of this issue. We're shining a light on government corruption, waste, fraud, and abuse, delivering on what 77 million Americans voted for. We are directing departments to cancel contracts not aligned with the "America First" agenda, scrutinizing every line to ensure they advance American interests. The majority of these contracts are a waste of taxpayer money. We are treating the government like a business, unlike past unnamed bureaucrats who freely wrote checks. The receipts are there, like the $2.5 million for cow flatulence reduction. We are discovering and exposing the misuse of American taxpayer funds. We have nothing to hide and will continue to reveal these issues at every briefing.

Elon Musk invited a group to observe his weekly Doge meeting, where they discussed efforts to combat government waste and fraud. They found instances of misuse of funds, such as the Department of Education's $4 billion COVID fund being used for parties at Caesar's Palace and stadium rentals. Requiring receipts halted these withdrawals. The Small Business Administration gave loans to dead people and even unborn children. The Inter American Foundation (IAF) spends only 58% of its funds on grantees, like alpaca farmers in Peru, with much of the money remaining in DC. Only 10-15 cents of each dollar reaches the intended recipient due to layers of stealing. The United States Institute of Peace was found to have loaded guns in its headquarters and a $130,000 contract with a former member of the Taliban for unclear services. The chief accountant deleted over a terabyte of records, later recovered. Unspent funds were swept into a private bank account. The team referred the evidence to the FBI and DOJ. A generous government resignation program was initially met with suspicion, but is now gaining acceptance. The effort to combat waste and fraud is a long-term enterprise.

The Doge team is following the money to make real changes. New York is prioritizing illegal aliens over American citizens, but that stops today. Our committee will focus on bringing full transparency to waste, fraud, and abuse within the federal government, and present plans to fix these problems. We will fight the war on waste with President Trump, Elon Musk, and the Doge team. This week, we're focusing on improper payments by the federal government, including in Medicaid and Medicare. Elon Musk is showing the country the fraud, waste, and abuse that has been going on for decades, and Americans are cheering. Reciprocal tariffs will make America great again.

Doge arrived at the IRS and is now helping review government spending, starting with NASA. We're planning to slash departments by 30-40% if they can't justify their headcount and selling unused federal buildings. We've discovered taxpayer money is being used to fund things like Palestinian hip hop and bizarre animal experiments. The Department of Health and Human Services has also spent billions on cars and homes for migrants. The EPA was caught rushing to spend tax dollars on questionable projects, including a climate fund with a now-deleted board of directors page. Trump's administration is offering buyouts to federal workers, and 75,000 have already accepted. We're addressing government waste and fraud that has been ongoing for years. The goal is to reform and cut wasteful spending.

Doge's goal is to cut the federal deficit by $1 trillion by reducing waste and fraud, aiming for a 15% reduction in federal spending without affecting critical services. They claim to routinely find wastes of a billion dollars or more, citing a $1 billion survey example. Doge aims to cut $4 billion a day in waste and fraud. A key project involves digitizing the government retirement process, currently a paper-based system housed in a mine with 400 million documents. The goal is to reduce processing time from months to days. Doge is also addressing fraudulent Social Security claims, including instances of benefits being stolen and payments made to deceased individuals. They aim to ensure legitimate recipients receive more benefits, not less. Doge is working to modernize government IT systems, including those at NIH, where there are 27 different CIOs and 700 IT systems that don't communicate. They are also addressing duplicative functions and overstaffing across various agencies, such as the IRS. The Treasury is implementing stricter financial controls to prevent fraud and improper payments, which amount to hundreds of billions of dollars annually. They are reviewing contracts and grants, citing examples of wasteful spending, such as a customer service survey contract. Elon Musk addressed violence against Tesla dealerships, attributing it to propaganda from the far left. He also defended his criticism of Senator Mark Kelly's stance on Ukraine, stating that officials should prioritize the interests of the United States.

I spent over an hour and a half with Vivek and Elon, discussing numerous ideas that left us both laughing and shaking our heads at the waste we uncovered. It's clear that the introduction of Doge is timely. We're committed to implementing pro-growth economic policies while also tackling government waste, fraud, and abuse. Our system is shifting from a democracy to a bureaucracy, and that needs to change.

There's support for clearing government waste on both sides of the aisle, but also concern about the access Musk and Doge staffers have to sensitive data, especially given Musk's investments with China and billions from the government. When PayPal was owned by Elon Musk, there were no security breaches. The IRS is a nightmare, with folks not back to work years after COVID. As a Congressman, it takes me up to six months to get a response regarding constituent concerns. The IRS has hundreds of groups with access to sensitive data. People are only complaining now that Elon Musk is involved. The only reason to ask questions is if you're doing something crooked. Congressmen will have red faces when this paper trail leads back to them. People are pitching a fit because Musk is making needed changes.

Before Elon Musk, no one knew about the unnamed bureaucrats in our government. Now, Musk is being scrutinized for the transparency and access he's providing. We're happy to provide the receipts, showing contracts that DOGE found across our government. For example, there's a $36,000 DEI contract for US citizenship and immigration services, and a $3.4 million contract for inclusive innovation at the US Patent and Trademark Office. There's also $57,000 for climate change in Sri Lanka. DOGE is identifying these line items daily and moving very fast. This administration is transparent about what DOGE is doing. We're providing transparency and accessibility daily. We also have a DOGE daily report available with all of their findings, and we're happy to provide this information.

Elon Musk invited a group to observe his weekly Doge meeting, where they discussed government waste and fraud. A key issue was the lack of receipt requirements for a $4 billion COVID fund in the Department of Education, leading to funds being used for parties and stadium rentals. Even when receipts were required, they didn't need to be legitimate, yet requests stopped. The Small Business Administration gave loans to dead people and even fetuses. The Inter American Foundation (IAF) spends only 58% of its funds on grantees, like alpaca farmers in Peru, with much of the money remaining in DC. Only 10-15 cents of each dollar reaches the intended recipient due to layers of stealing. The United States Institute of Peace was cited as the agency with the most resistance, including loaded guns in their headquarters and a $130,000 contract with a former member of the Taliban for unclear services. The agency's chief accountant deleted a terabyte of records, later recovered, and unspent funds were diverted to a private bank account. Doge is a long-term enterprise to combat waste and fraud, with the goal of making it difficult to restart.

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.

Chairman Marcia Taylor Green's subcommittee discovered $2.7 trillion in improper payments to Medicare, Medicaid, and overseas recipients. These payments went to individuals who should not have received them. Doge is identifying fraud, waste, and abuse daily. Elon Musk mentioned Social Security payments being sent to deceased individuals. There are also contracts where, for example, a million dollars was allocated, but only $500,000 was disbursed, raising questions about the missing funds. Doge is actively addressing these issues. President Trump campaigned on this and is delivering on that promise.

I'd love to have Elon Musk come to the Briefing Room, especially after his informative visit to the Oval Office yesterday. We've been incredibly transparent about Doge's work. They're actively tweeting updates and posting contract receipts on their website, showcasing how they're making our government more efficient. Before Doge, these issues were handled by unknown bureaucrats. Now, Elon Musk, is under scrutiny for bringing these issues to light, providing needed transparency. We're happy to provide the receipts, like these DEI contracts totaling millions, including one for climate change in Sri Lanka. These are the kinds of wasteful expenditures Doge is uncovering daily. Many Americans weren't even aware of things like the federal employee retirement system being processed in a mine in Pennsylvania until Elon Musk spoke up. This is fraudulent, wasteful, and an abuse of taxpayer dollars.

Instead of focusing on real issues, Democrats are attacking those exposing wasteful spending. Taxpayers would rather we stop funding ridiculous things, like a transgender comic in Ireland or Bert and Ernie on Baghdad TV. Elon Musk is now exposing the federal government, just like he did with Twitter, revealing how big government pressured big tech to censor Americans. Mark Zuckerberg admitted the Biden administration pressured them to censor, and they complied. We believe elected officials should make decisions, not unelected bureaucrats. The person who received 77 million votes wants Elon Musk to help expose wasteful government spending. Democrats can attack him if they want, but we understand the consequences of letting bureaucrats run things. We have witnesses who can testify about how this has impacted their businesses.

Tomorrow, I will hold a news conference to reveal the names of entities receiving hundreds of millions, even billions, of dollars. If you believe these entities deserve the funding, you shouldn't be a reporter. Billions are being wasted illegally, and I believe kickbacks are involved. When someone gets millions for a mere fifteen-minute assessment, that money is coming back somehow. This corruption significantly harms our country through massive expenditures. I reviewed 200 expenditures and found only three reasonable. We'll discuss this further tomorrow. I commend Elon Musk; despite daily abuse, he has uncovered more than anyone else. His team of geniuses, starting with 12 and now almost a hundred, is helping expose massive fraud.

There's tremendous fraud and abuse happening, and I'm holding a news conference tomorrow to reveal some of the entities that have received hundreds of millions, even billions of dollars. It's hard to believe this kind of fraud can occur. When you see billions being wasted illegally, there's likely kickbacks or corruption involved. Millions are given for minimal effort, and that money comes back in some form. They're spending massive amounts of money on ridiculous items. Out of 200 expenditures I reviewed, only three seemed reasonable. I commend Elon for his work in uncovering this fraud. He doesn't need to do this, especially with the abuse he faces. He and his team, which started with 12 people and has now grown to almost a hundred, have found more than anyone else could. People are joining to help because there's massive fraud.

I'd love for Elon Musk to come to the briefing room; that's why we had him in the Oval Office yesterday. Trump and Musk have been incredibly transparent about what Doge is doing. They tweet daily and post receipts of reviewed contracts and stopped payments on their website. Before Musk, it was an unnamed bureaucrat. Now, as a scrutinized figure, Musk is providing access and transparency. We're happy to provide receipts, and I've brought some today: a $36,000 DEI contract for US citizenship and immigration services, a $3.4 million DEI contract for inclusive innovation, and $57,000 for climate change in Sri Lanka. These are the line items Doge is identifying daily. We're happy to show you the paperwork. Here’s a tweet about the Federal Employee Retirement System being processed in a Pennsylvania mine. We are providing transparency and accessibility daily.

Doge was invited to Elon Musk's weekly Doge meeting at the Eisenhower Building. The Treasury was found to make $5 trillion in payments annually without budget codes, and a $4 billion COVID fund in the Department of Education had no receipt requirements, leading to funds being used for parties at Caesar's Palace and stadium rentals. The Small Business Administration gave $330 million in loans to dead people and $660 million to babies. The Inter American Foundation (IAF) spends only 58% of its congressional money on grantees, such as alpaca farmers in Peru, with the rest going to management and travel. Only 10-15 cents of each dollar reaches the intended recipient due to layers of stealing. The United States Institute of Peace was found to have loaded guns and a $130,000 contract with a former member of the Taliban for generic services. The chief accountant deleted over a terabyte of accounting records, and unspent funds were swept into a private bank account. The government uses paper retirement case folders that are compiled by hand and moved around on carts through a mine. The postal service is breaking the law by operating with a deficit since 2007, losing $9.5 billion last year. Protests have occurred, and death threats have been made against Doge team members. Government employees are helping reduce waste and fraud.

I welcome Elon Musk to the briefing room, as he provided great insights in the Oval Office yesterday, speaking in layman's terms. There is no lack of transparency with Doge. Trump and Musk are transparent about Doge's work, with an active X account and website posting contract receipts and stopped payments. Before Musk, an unnamed bureaucrat handled government efficiency. Musk, now highly scrutinized, provides great access. We're happy to provide receipts and are not hiding anything. Here are screenshots of contracts Doge found, like a $36,000 DEI contract for US citizenship and immigration services, a $3,400,000 DEI contract, and $57,000 for climate change in Sri Lanka. Doge identifies these line items daily. We're transparent about Doge's work, including tweets about the Federal Employee Retirement System in Pennsylvania. We provide daily transparency and accessibility.

Mister President, what do you think about the Democrats' criticism of the staff reductions by Elon Musk and Doge, claiming it's an unlawful power grab? Have you restricted Musk in any way? We haven't discussed much. He has a capable team that knows what they're doing. They ask questions and can quickly identify issues. I've directed him to explore areas like education and military, where they're uncovering significant fraud and waste. I identify targets for investigation, and while there may be areas we won't touch, I believe everything is worth examining. As a government, we need to be transparent, and I'm willing to take action if necessary.

Instead of addressing wasteful spending, Democrats are attacking the person exposing it. Taxpayers want us to stop funding ridiculous projects, like the transgender comic example from USAID or Bert and Ernie on Baghdad TV. Elon Musk is revealing the federal government's actions, similar to what he did with Twitter. We found that big government pressured big tech to censor Americans. Mark Zuckerberg admitted the Biden administration pressured them to censor, and they complied, but won't repeat it. Musk is now doing this for the federal government, which we support. Democrats believe career bureaucrats should run the country, but we believe elected officials should make decisions. The person with 77 million votes wants Musk to expose government waste. We have witnesses, Miss Wade and Mr. Smith, who can testify to the impact of this administrative state on their businesses.

Mister President, what do you think about the Democrats' criticism regarding staff reductions by Elon Musk and Doge, claiming it's an unlawful power grab? Have you instructed Musk on what he cannot do? We haven't discussed specifics much. Musk has a capable team that knows what they're doing. They ask questions and can identify issues quickly. I've directed him to explore areas like education and military, where they've uncovered significant fraud and waste. While I may target specific areas, I believe there are many opportunities for improvement. As a government, we must remain open and transparent. If necessary, I can step in personally.

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.

I know people who worked in the Reagan administration. When they asked the bureaucracy questions, they were often blocked and deterred because they weren't technical. Elon Musk's team bypassed this by directly accessing the tech systems. No president has ever done this. They found crazy things like payments to people with duplicate or no social security numbers, totaling up to a hundred billion dollars. Payments were also going to organizations like Internews Network, which promotes a left-leaning point of view, and to protesters worldwide. My team is being transparent about it. We went to the data, we found it. We've only been at this for twenty days, so give us a chance. We're already releasing a lot of information. People are trying to slow us down, but the biggest question is whether we can stop their grift.
