Witness in real time as Elon Musk and the Dept of Government Efficiency (DOGE) discover the malfeasance, fraud, and criminality of not fictional but the real live people who run our massive government institutions To name only a few, there are the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Pentagon, and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). All of these have been fleecing our country — with our tax dollars — not of millions or billions, but of trillions of dollars! In fact, DOGE has been unearthing the deep corruption involving both Republicans and (mostly) democrats and proving the maxim that to unearth criminal behavior, always, always, always follow the money! We have learned that our elected officials have sent vast fortunes to terrorist groups with eye-popping millions upon millions of dollars.
Among egregious examples of the kinds of waste, fraud, and abuse DOGE has been uncovering is that tens of millions of dead people are on our Social Security rolls, many of them children and people over 115 years old! And look what DOGE found — that $4.7 trillion in payments from the Treasury Department were “almost impossible” to track. That is trillion, with a T! DOGE has also found that California, New York, and Massachusetts, 3 left-wing/democrat states — surprise, surprise! — were responsible for over 50% of the fraudulent unemployment claims in the United States since 2020, again involving massive mountains of money.
OMG, bleat the perpetually sky-is-falling, empty-headed, hate-spewing leftists, that is illegitimate! But, according to Victor Davis Hanson, Musk acts completely under executive authority. They remind one of a child having a temper tantrum in Aisle 4 of a supermarket — flailing arms, copious tears, kicking and screaming, crashing the cans and breakable jars off the shelf, simply because Mommy didn’t buy those all-important Animal Crackers. “Clean-up in Aisle 4” is then blared over the loudspeaker.
That is what DOGE is all about: cleaning up the monumental financial mess that our greedy and corrupt elected officials and government agencies have inflicted on all of us.
