We should expect hundreds of billions of dollars in wasteful spending at the Department of Defense. It's unacceptable that a full audit won't be completed for four years. The Pentagon needs to be able to pass a budget now, and while the Marine Corps has passed a clean audit for two years, this needs to be department-wide. We need to know exactly where every dollar is going. This is basic accounting, and it's something the Defense Department has lacked. We're committed to fixing this. With America's $37 trillion debt, we must use resources wisely. We welcome partnerships, like with Doge, to streamline processes, cut waste, and ensure every dollar goes to our warfighters. The Defense Department has a huge budget, and responsible spending is crucial.

Do you liberals even realize you're championing the right of unelected bureaucrats to spend billions of our tax dollars in other countries? You're making videos, writing articles, protesting, and filing lawsuits to ensure this happens. Imagine if I told you ten years ago that in 2025, liberals would be fighting for billions, maybe trillions, to be spent in other countries on things that don't benefit America while we sink deeper into debt. You're fighting for politicians to line their pockets with payments to useless programs and countries. And what are you fighting against? People who want to audit the government, see where our money is going, identify waste, and expose fraud. Are you out of your minds?

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.

Senator Warren, why the fear of transparency regarding Elon Musk's exposure of alleged fraudulent spending? How did you accumulate a $12 million net worth on a congressional salary of $200,000? I'm asking for transparency. You're obstructing my camera. Why the resistance? What's the issue with Dogecoin? You just elbowed me. Transparency is clearly your enemy.

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.

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.

I've been watching Democrats on TV constantly yelling "Elon Musk" over and over. Honestly, I'm enjoying it. What I find amusing is that they're angry at the person who exposed the fraud, but not at those who misused taxpayer money. Since Congress obviously can't cut a budget, I want to thank Elon for stepping up and doing our job.

Senator Warren, why the fear of transparency regarding Elon Musk's exposure of fraudulent spending? How did you accumulate a $12 million net worth on a congressional salary of $200,000? You keep trying to block my camera; this isn't a public sidewalk. You won't answer my questions. What's the problem with transparency, and why is Doge such a problem for you? You just elbowed me—I have it on camera. Transparency is your enemy.

Democrats are upset with President Trump and Elon Musk for reviewing government spending, which Trump promised during his campaign. Musk, appointed by Trump, is auditing expenditures, revealing wasteful spending by agencies like USAID. He discovered taxpayer money going to foreign aid in countries like Afghanistan, Yemen, and Syria, as well as funding for projects like electric vehicles in Vietnam and LGBTQ initiatives in various nations. Critics focus on the process rather than the findings, ignoring the waste of taxpayer dollars. The national debt has skyrocketed to $36 trillion, largely due to excessive spending under recent administrations. Musk's audit aims to identify and eliminate waste, and he should be commended for his efforts to save taxpayer money.

If Doge targets USAID today, they might go after other agencies tomorrow, like the postal service or the IRS. There's a disconnect in our reactions; Chuck Schumer suggests that if they audit USAID, they could also audit the IRS or postal service. The IRS audits individuals, and there's a fear that your money could be used against them. Has anyone else noticed this?

Doge's government transparency initiative is an accountant's dream. For the first time, we're seeing exactly where our tax dollars are going, and it's shocking. We've always been told what people *wanted* to hear, not necessarily what we *needed* to hear. Now we have the documentation to see the reality. I'm baffled by the lack of public outrage. This is our money, earned through a lifetime of paying taxes. Where our money is being spent is unacceptable. I'm astounded by the misuse of funds. We need to understand where our tax dollars are being allocated.

I welcome Elon Musk to come to the briefing room, as he provided great answers and common sense yesterday in the Oval Office regarding Doge. There's no lack of transparency; Doge has an X account, a website posting contracts and stopped payments, making our government efficient. Before, it was unnamed bureaucrats. Now, Musk is under scrutiny for his access, but we're transparent and happy to provide receipts. Here are examples: a DEI contract for US citizenship, a contract for inclusive innovation, and climate change spending in Sri Lanka. These are line items Doge identifies daily. We're providing transparency about Doge's findings, like the Federal Employee Retirement System processing in Pennsylvania. These actions are fraudulent, wasteful, and an abuse of taxpayer dollars, contrary to the President's agenda.

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.

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.

The left is not worried about democracy, they are worried about being exposed. All the shady things they've been doing in the dark with American tax dollars is about to come to light. If they had nothing to hide, they wouldn't be going so crazy about it. A defensive reaction to an accusation can indicate guilt. We're seeing a bunch of guilty politicians complaining after Elon Musk has been going into the books and finding hundreds of millions of our tax dollars going to nonsense. Just yesterday, we saw Elon talking about investigating federal employees who have a high net worth despite low pay. For many years, many people were afraid of the government. Now the tables are turning and the government is afraid of the people. It's all coming out now.

I'm calling for an investigation to uncover who in the government has been receiving kickbacks from USAID. Doge's congressional audits reveal that three Democrat senators have each inexplicably gained over $20,000,000 in net worth. When questioned, they claimed the wealth simply appeared. These files have now been handed over to Pam Bondi at the Justice Department. If they're found guilty of using taxpayer money to enrich themselves, what consequences do you think they should face? Share your thoughts in the comments on what actions should be taken against those who steal from American citizens.

The speaker discusses Matt Van Swal's summary of the "Doge situation," claiming Doge is one of the most popular government initiatives ever. According to the summary, 73% of Americans support cutting government waste, and Trump brought in "the smartest man on earth" to do it. However, the left allegedly destroyed Elon Musk for his involvement, and the GOP won't vote on it. Elon Musk responded to the post with "did my best." The speaker expresses frustration that Congress will not codify the savings, despite Musk's efforts. The speaker notes Marjorie Taylor Greene is trying to get it codified. The speaker believes Congress thwarting the effort is a tragedy.

The speaker asserts there is waste in government spending, which was the idea behind "doge." Elon Musk did not find $2 trillion, but he only worked on it for 130 days. The idea that there must be a perpetual audit of government is now embedded in everyone's head, regardless of political affiliation. The brand for this idea is "Doge."

I think it's one thing to criticize Elon Musk or Doge, but to only do that and criticize the way Elon talks about or uncovers fraud and waste, and not the waste and fraud itself, reminds me of a situation. Imagine you confront someone about cheating with evidence, and they respond with, "You went through my phone? How can we be together if you don't trust me?". Can we not talk about what was found now? It's the same thing here. If you find issues with the way things are being done, but there's no mention of what was found, which should bother you, then we have a problem.

I apologize to Democrats. Tomorrow, during the Super Bowl, Elon Musk will run three commercials exposing what you've been voting for. For those who defended Kamala Harris, I look forward to your reaction when you see twenty years of Democrats' actions with your money. Their support of questionable policies was to keep you in the dark, but now the truth is out. How will you feel defending a party that has been stealing from and lying to you? I can't wait to see the fallout tomorrow.

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.

The media has reached a new low. Many are fake journalists who avoid talking about the corruption that Doge is uncovering. They'd rather attack Elon Musk. This is the biggest story ever, bigger than Watergate. Any decent journalist would be all over this. It's disturbing to see groups like AP wanting to boycott the White House because they refuse to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico. Now other outlets want to join them and boycott the press pool. The mainstream media keeps asking the same questions instead of asking about what we found when we dug into USAID, the Department of Education, or the Department of Defense. Instead, they're pushing a narrative by attacking Doge and Elon. I hope we start asking the questions that the American people want answered.

Elon Musk, now co-head of the Department of Government Efficiency, announced plans to audit the IRS after it requested a $20 billion budget increase. He engaged the public on social media about the IRS's spending and expressed frustration over not receiving recognition for being the largest individual taxpayer, having paid $10 billion in taxes. The new department aims to identify government waste, with Musk suggesting the IRS's armed agents and ammunition purchases could be reconsidered. The initiative is framed as a positive step towards accountability.
