    Can't say I'm shocked. Wish I could.

    $2M for Guatemalan sex changes. $3M for "girl centric climate change". $4.8M for social media influencers in the Ukraine.

    Rand Paul's discussion here is sure to trigger everyone with TDS. But the fact is there's no real argument against it. And the whole "its not going to change anything because it's not enough" is the dumbest, more ignorant response you could possibly have. So we should accept small (relatively speaking) fraud because it won't make a difference. GTFO.

    Where is DOGE website with all the waste? I’m not sure everything we read is factual. As much as we our outraged about waste. You have to put it in perspective as there will always be waste and also fraud. It’s just the way it is. Like an article I read many years ago about the pentagon paying $10k for some type of $1 item. If ur saving me $5.00 but you are violating or pushing the limits of the constitution brother fuck me the $5.00. Peace

    Half of what we read - what we always will read - is horseshit, from one side or the other.

    I suspect, and hope, that there will be a final listing of all the fraud once the audit is complete. It's not standard or good practice to release findings before the audit is complete for this very reason (rumor mongering).

    the administration is talking up fraud and billions in waste almost daily. Is there a tally somewhere to compare against the overall payments. Again if the savings is 5% or 10%.

    Wait, you're telling me that Trump is being hyperbolic every day? No way!!

    That's the dude's M.O.!

    "The best". "Best in the world". "Everyone says so". "Billions". ....

    lol. Maybe he should wait for the audited numbers. Instead he seems to be slashing firing cutting not knowing the overall impact. Maybe the numbers are insignificant compared to say something like the proposed $4 trillion tax cuts or pushing our court systems. Ok have a great day. That’s my daily political time limit. :D

    I was going to create a thread about the "Absolute Scam that is the EPA" but honestly, why bother at this point.
