We are going to need more prisons.
LOL. Yeah, that's the ticket.... "nonpartisan" ... yeah... One wonders if they got paid to say it THIS time, or was it a freebie?
In DC, being “nonpartisan” means you agree with Demonrats and Mitch McConnell.
It’s the People’s money, as in “We the People.” We demand transparency at all levels.
If you have covert operations, then call it “covert operations” and move on. No need for $20,000 toilet seats.
Apparently I have been doing my household budgeting and accounts incorrectly all these years. I was never supposed to see where the money goes!
“did you know that since 1946 no president nor any of his appointed staff of secretaries up to and including the treasury secretary has had access to the US government’s payment system?”
I believe this date is more than coincidental seeing how it was in 1946 that the “Administrative Procedures Act” was passed.
“One has been appointed fiscal assistant secretary—a post that for the prior eight decades had been reserved exclusively for civil servants to ensure impartiality and public confidence in the handling and payment of federal funds.”
But they don’t like things to stay the same. They like things that are progressive. They like change, right? What is the problem? You just can’t please some people.
bkmk
Let me think — aren’t all five of the former secretaries from Democrat Presidents?
Hmmm. I wonder if that means anything? In their DNA to NOT question any expense?
I think so.

Not if you just kick them out the back of a C-130 50 miles off the coast at 500 feet. (After their fair, 5-min trial, of course.)
Well, ya know, elections have consequences.
Also the same year that the OSS needed to re-imagine their mission. In 1947 they became the CIA.
The general ledger is the key to the castle in corporate world.
When a check has been cut and nobody seems able to explain what it was for that is what is called a clue to dip very deeply.
The advantage DOGE has is speed. They can quickly identify millions of these questionable expenditures and start following the breadcrumbs.
“This office is in Miami and they hired a snow plow contractor?”
Lol.

CWII would be fast and … efficient.
Let us have those comms, Elon.
Good to know. Thanks.
The Trump Administration should respond to critics with “Nothing is more “progressive” than fiscal transparency.”
I hope we can fill these prisons faster than we can build them. There is no reason why a government should be able to falsify money being taken in or given out to enrich cetrain people. If business is conducted this way,then we will naturally have huge deficits (which we do) & if a certain group is enriching themselselve while others are living in poverty, then something is badly wrong.
