Tech billionaire Elon Musk ripped alleged "fraudulent" Treasury payments on Saturday as reports circulated that the Department of Government Efficiency has gained acces to the federal government's payment system as the second Trump administration continues cutting what they say is government fat and overspending.
"The @DOGE team discovered, among other things, that payment approval officers at Treasury were instructed always to approve payments, even to known fraudulent or terrorist groups. They literally never denied a payment in their entire career. Not even once," Musk, the chair of DOGE, posted early Saturday morning to X.
Musk's post came just ahead of the New York Times reporting Saturday afternoon that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent granted DOGE personnel access to the payment system. The Treasury spends roughly $6 trillion per year on payments for federal agencies.
The ranking Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden, posted to social media on Saturday that he has also been informed that DOGE was granted access to the system.
"Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it," Wyden posted to social media site BlueSky on Saturday evening.
DOGE's reported access to the payment system comes after the Washington Post reported on Friday that the former acting director of the Treasury, David A. Lebryk, was planning to exit the finance department of the federal government following a clash over granting DOGE access to its payment system. Lebryk oversaw the Treasury Department in the days between President Donald Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20 and Bessent's confirmation to lead the department on Jan. 27.

Our Republic has most likely been financially compromised for longer and more deeply than most suspect. There need to be some public hangings or breaking on the wheel or drawing and quartering or impalements; after a fair and impartial trial, of course.
They thought no one would ever know.
This means the order from that leftist judge enjoining the stop payment order doesn’t matter now. Now, that judge will need to order a cabinet level officer to make a payment. That will get interesting when the defense is fraudulent payments.
I WONDER IF PEOPLE WILL REALLY GRASP WHAT THIS HAS COST THE USA???
“...They literally never denied a payment in their entire career. Not even once,”
IOW, the US Treasury was the Democrats’ Personal Piggy Bank..........
What the heck is going on here? I’m dense so I need it spelled out for me. Otherwise it kind of looks like a weird Elon Musk takeover of the federal government.
Didn’t question it : Well they had to get 10% for themselves and family.
Elon Musk ripped alleged “fraudulent” Treasury payments,
the mishandling of some $6 trillion tax dollars.
“The @DOGE team discovered, among other things,
<><>payment approval officers at Treasury were instructed always to approve payments,
<><>tax dollars went to known fraudulent or terrorist groups.
<><>The Treasury officials literally never denied a payment in their entire career. Not even once.
There is so much corruption and greed that has been going on for such a long time gotta clean house
Tariffs now, abolish the IRS now, establish a new treasury and lock up the old treasury, lock the thieves in it....
Biden nominee who says he's a Nigerian prince.
An audit of all recipients of federal taxpayers dollars. Then it’s all published by Doge.
USAID is under current audit. Lots of old krusty krabs with made up organizations receiving millions.
Before being appointed by Biden to manage $6 trillion tax dollars,
Nigerian immigrant Adewale Adeyemo was an Obama insider.
<><>He was Director of the National Economic Council under Obama
<><>he was also a Sr Advisor, the Former Chief of Staff, for Blackrock.
<><>he oversaw Treasury payment approval in the amt of $6 trillion
<><>He directed that no US Treasury payments be disapproved, even to international terrorists
<><>he abruptly quit, and refused to turn in official documents
<><>he had No apparent congressional oversight
<><>he was previously the president of the Obama foundation.
<><>did Treasury monies get illegally transferred to the Obama foundation?
<><>is this the reason why Obama will not disclose his foundation finances?
Thanks to Musk, we’re going to find out how MUCH the Treasury Department stole from the American taxpayers. People are going to prison. Biden really tried hard to destroy our country and he got away with it....makes you wonder why he wasn’t impeached?
Bureaucratic Tyranny. If the agencies don’t spend the money (and then go cap-in-hand, begging for more), the spigots get turned off (or, at least, the flow restricted).
Cloward Piven on steroids.
Thank you. Yes the USAID “standoff” got my attention and made me start wondering wtf.
I’m sure DOGE has access to this - it’s a fed web site....
