We anticipate significant reductions in the federal government, including the outright elimination of certain agencies. There will be mass layoffs in areas deemed bloated, along with substantial cuts to federal contractors who are overcharging. We expect to implement these changes swiftly, aided by the legal framework provided by the Supreme Court.

I made a commitment to the American people to cut wasteful spending in Washington. We don't have to wait for Congress to act. Leaders in both parties have worked on cutting waste and making government more efficient. Since we haven't seen as much action out of Congress as we'd like, we're launching our own efforts to address this issue.

To reduce the federal bureaucracy, we must recognize that many regulations are illegitimate. The executive branch has created numerous rules unlawfully, and acknowledging this is key to shrinking its size. This approach could effectively curb the bureaucracy's illegal actions and ultimately save the country. The growth of the federal government is relentless, as institutions inherently aim to protect and expand themselves. It's rare to hear suggestions about significantly reducing its size, but even a modest cut could transform foreign policy, the economy, and culture. There is potential for meaningful change.

The people want an active government that doesn't waste money. To deliver change, we're reorganizing the government to save taxpayer dollars. We're cutting the federal bureaucracy by 100,000 positions through attrition and reducing administrative costs by 12%. Unproductive advisory commissions will be eliminated, and agencies can't create new ones without approval. Government regulations and procurement rules hurt the system, so we will cut waste, streamline bureaucracy, and change these rules to make government work better. This includes downsizing the government, improving customer service, and overhauling federal procurement and personnel systems. The goal is to make government work for the people, eliminate unnecessary programs, and reduce the federal workforce. We're committed to cutting spending and reducing the deficit to ensure a stronger economy for the future.

The federal government isn't a company to dismantle. It requires constitutional adherence, not a Shark Tank takeover approach. The government is fat and hasn't been scrutinized in a century. An individual is willing to do this work for free, but isn't cutting enough. In private equity, when dealing with a broken company, you cut deep and fast, then rehire. He should cut 20% more. It's all fat and waste. You can't be surgically precise, you have to cut more because you don't know. We've never audited government for a hundred years.

I want key positions in the federal government, like the Office of Personnel Management and the Office of Management and Budget, filled by individuals who share my anti-government, anti-bureaucratic mindset. The Trump experience taught me that appointing those aligned with the managerial class is a mistake. I aim to cut 75% of the federal bureaucracy and need to identify the top 25% of performers to retain. We're developing a comprehensive screening process to select for excellence based on psychological assessments, knowledge, and work ethic. Additionally, I recognize the importance of acting quickly in the first year, focusing on executive actions rather than legislative agendas, and starting preparations before the election.

I made a commitment to the American people to do a better job rooting out wasteful spending in Washington. We don't need to wait for Congress to take action. Cutting waste and making government more efficient is something leaders in both parties have worked on. We haven't seen as much action out of Congress as we'd like, and that's why we launched our own initiative.

The speaker states a commitment to root out wasteful spending in government, emphasizing its importance due to inherited deficits. Despite bipartisan support for cutting waste, the administration launched its own initiative to improve government efficiency. The initiative includes eliminating unneeded government buildings to save billions. Examples of savings include $2 million annually on cellphone bills at the Department of Commerce and tens of millions at Homeland Security through procurement changes. The Vice President is tasked with identifying systemic improvements in travel, transportation, and IT services. An executive order directs agencies to cut spending in these areas by 20%, leveraging technology for better results at lower costs, potentially saving billions over several years. The speaker thanks officials for their dedication to the project.

The government is initiating a campaign to cut waste, targeting misspent tax dollars across all agencies. This includes eliminating spending on things like a website for the "Fiddling Foresters," a folk music ensemble of forest rangers, and consolidating or eliminating hundreds of similar unnecessary sites. The government also aims to sell unused buildings, such as a massive empty warehouse in Brooklyn, that have been held up by red tape. The goal is to instill a new culture of transparency and accountability in government, ensuring it functions better and eliminates fraud and waste. The Vice President will lead this effort, focusing on relentless prioritization and sophisticated methods to achieve these goals.

Budget reform isn't an option; it's essential. The American people deserve transparency and accountability to see where their tax dollars go. We must ensure funds are used as intended. We're committed to scrutinizing the federal budget, line by line, eliminating wasteful programs and ensuring cost-effectiveness. It should be easy to cut pointless waste that benefits no one. We aim to establish a new culture of efficiency, not just within our administration, but for every administration that follows. No amount of waste is acceptable when it's your money. We all know government inefficiency exists. Reorganizing and finding efficiency is challenging, and frankly, some of these necessary changes are overdue.

The government is initiating a campaign to cut waste, led by the Vice President, to eliminate misspent tax dollars across all agencies. This includes cutting back on billions of dollars in programs and eliminating pointless waste, even if there wasn't a deficit. Examples of waste include a website devoted to the "Fiddling Foresters" and thousands of unused buildings, such as a massive empty warehouse in Brooklyn. Red tape has prevented the sale of these buildings, but the government plans to get rid of them. The goal is to make government work for the people by pursuing every dime of waste. The administration aims to instill a new culture of transparency and accountability, eliminating fraud and waste, and ensuring future administrations do the same.

To reduce the size of government, I plan a 75% reduction in federal employees during my first term, with 50% cut in the first year. This includes shutting down agencies like the FBI, IRS, ATF, CDC, and Department of Education. Reviving the integrity of our constitutional republic requires this action. If elected president, I believe in term limits for bureaucrats, just as I would have a limit on my own term. As a CEO, I know that if employees can't be fired, they don't truly work for you. This approach will ensure accountability and efficiency in government.

The speaker emphasizes a commitment to rooting out wasteful spending in government, highlighting its importance due to inherited deficits. While Congressional action is preferred, the administration is independently pursuing waste reduction. An initiative identified thousands of unused government buildings for disposal, potentially saving billions. Federal employees contributed nearly 20,000 suggestions for efficiency. Examples include saving millions on cellphone bills and improving procurement processes. The Vice President is working with agency secretaries to improve travel, transportation, and IT services. An executive order mandates a 20% spending reduction in these areas, with cabinet members reporting progress. These steps aim to save taxpayers billions and deliver more efficient government, even without Congressional action.

The American people want effective government without wasted money. To deliver this, we're overhauling how government operates, beginning with a 25% reduction in White House staff and $10 million in savings. These steps will save taxpayers $9 billion. We're reducing the federal bureaucracy by at least 100,000 positions through attrition and cutting administrative costs by 12%. We're also eliminating unproductive advisory commissions. We aim to cut inessential spending and tackle the growing deficit and debt. Government programs should be efficient, and overhead must be reduced. These changes are crucial because debt consumes tax dollars and hinders private sector growth. We're also working to cut waste, streamline processes, improve customer service, and reform procurement and personnel systems. We need a government that works better, costs less, and treats taxpayers like customers.

The speaker states that eliminating the deficit requires cutting billions from valued programs, but eliminating pointless waste should be easy, even if the cuts are small. The federal government funds a website for the Fiddling Foresters, a folk music ensemble of forest rangers, and hundreds of similar sites should be consolidated or eliminated. Taxpayers also fund thousands of unused buildings, including a massive, empty warehouse in Brooklyn that the government has owned for a decade. Red tape and Washington politics have prevented the sale of these buildings, but the speaker claims they are cutting through the red tape and plan to get rid of the buildings in the months ahead. The speaker has asked the Vice President to lead a renewed effort to hunt down misspent tax dollars in every agency, calling it the campaign to cut waste.

The speaker states a commitment to root out wasteful spending in government, given that families have had to cut back. This is important due to inherited deficits that have grown due to the recession. While cutting some worthy programs, the administration is launching its own initiative to cut waste and improve government, citing a lack of Congressional action. Thousands of unneeded government buildings are being eliminated, saving billions. Roger Rhodes at the Department of Commerce found a way to save almost $2,000,000 a year on cellphone bills. Celeste Steele at Homeland Security is saving tens of millions by changing how the department buys goods and services. The Vice President is working with agency secretaries to improve travel, transportation, and IT services, potentially saving billions. An executive order will direct agencies to slash spending in these areas by 20%, saving taxpayers billions over the next several years. The speaker is signing the bill and thanks officials for taking the project seriously.

The FBI has expanded significantly, and its intelligence operations are problematic. I would close the Hoover building and reopen it as a museum, reallocating the 7,000 employees to focus on law enforcement across the country. They should be out there fighting crime instead of being tied to bureaucratic roles. The same applies to the Department of Justice; many are more focused on promotions and titles than on their duties. While it's essential to bring in qualified individuals, it's equally important to reduce the size of government.

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.

In just under a month, the Department of Government Efficiency has already saved over $55 billion, and this is only the beginning. We're on track to eliminate trillions of dollars in waste, which will lead to significantly lower inflation and interest rates. This will also result in reduced payments on mortgages, credit cards, and car loans, and a much stronger stock market. I anticipate the stock market performing exceptionally well. Our strategy involves rapidly expanding the economy by significantly reducing the size of the federal government, and this is a crucial step we must take.

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 need to reduce government size, particularly within the FBI, which has expanded unnecessarily. The FBI's intel operations have caused significant issues, and I would repurpose the Hoover building into a museum while reallocating its 7,000 employees to focus on law enforcement, tackling crime directly. Government reform is essential, and collaboration with Congress is necessary to eliminate redundant positions. During my time as deputy DNI, we identified and cut unnecessary roles, which Congress appreciated as it saved money. Agencies often request more positions without justification, leading to unfilled roles and wasted budgets. It's a misconception that agencies can't return unused funds; they often spend unnecessarily to avoid returning money to Congress.

The government is initiating a campaign to cut waste, led by the Vice President, to eliminate misspent tax dollars across all agencies. This includes cutting back on billions of dollars in programs and eliminating pointless waste that doesn't benefit anyone. Examples of waste include a website devoted to a folk music ensemble made up of forest rangers and thousands of unused buildings across the country, such as a massive empty warehouse in Brooklyn. The government plans to get rid of these buildings after red tape held things up for years. The aim is to instill a new culture of transparency and accountability in government, ensuring it functions better and eliminates fraud and waste. The administration hopes every succeeding administration will pursue this goal.

We anticipate significant reductions in federal agencies, including potential closures. Certain agencies may be eliminated entirely, and we plan to cut down on bloated areas within the federal government. Additionally, we aim to reduce spending on federal contractors who are overbilling. The changes may happen more swiftly than expected, thanks to the legal framework provided by the Supreme Court.

In private equity, when taking over a bankrupt company, you need to cut deeper than initially planned. Agencies like the FAA are inefficient, not due to the people, but outdated technology. These agencies are like fat chickens dripping with waste. We need to act fast, cutting more aggressively. There is a 24-month window before the midterms to slash and hack away at the fat. Cut everything that doesn't add value. If they can't prove their worth, cut them. More cutting is needed. It's going to work out great if we cut deep and hard.

The federal government isn't a company to dismantle like on Shark Tank; it must be run constitutionally, and the current administration is restoring services and jobs that have been disrupted. The government is fat and hasn't been scrutinized for a century. Finally, someone is willing to address the waste. However, cuts aren't deep enough. In private equity, when fixing a bankrupt company, you must cut severely and quickly, even 20% more than initially planned, then rehire to minimize trauma. There's so much waste in the federal government that needs addressing. You can't be surgically precise when auditing the government. You have to cut more because you don't know where all the waste is. We've never audited the government before.
