How Is Elon Finding Despicable Gov't Waste So Quickly? He Has a Secret Weapon—and It's 'Intelligent
Redstate ^ | 02/07/2025 | Bob Hoge

We’ve been reporting on how X owner and multi-billionaire Elon Musk has set the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) loose and uncovered a wealth of ridiculous outlays by the federal government—using our tax dollars to fund things most Americans don’t support. Elon has absolutely leveled USAID, the “US Agency for International Development,” basically a slush fund for leftists to underwrite such worthy projects as pottery classes in Morocco, bat research on coronaviruses at China’s infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology, $20 million to create a "Sesame Street" in Iraq, $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities,” the list goes on… and on.

He’s uncovering abuse, waste, and fraud at other agencies as well—but how is he doing it so quickly? After all, the administration is barely two weeks old.

Turns out his team is using that new technological marvel—“incomprehensible advancement” to many of us—artificial intelligence. Matt Vespa, at our sister site, Townhall, reports:

The Washington Post had an interesting article about how Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency crew were weeding out the waste that’s engulfed the capital. I don’t know if the Post was trying to cast this off as creepy—I think it’s cool: the DOGE crew is using artificial intelligence to find spending cuts (via WaPo):

Representatives from Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service have fed sensitive data from across the Education Department into artificial intelligence software to probe the agency’s programs and spending, according to two people with knowledge of the DOGE team’s actions…

I’d come out of retirement and work for nothing to be a part of this. Hell, I’d pay Elon to let me in.

No matter what these “kids” do with the rest of their lives, this will probably be the high light. They will always be rock stars to at least half the country.

Check out this thread (I found it reposted by Mike Flynn). Are we talking the same thing here?

The important thing for now is that the one-two punch of Trump/Musk has stayed ahead of organized, effective resistance.

Democrats have not been able to organize and to present a coherent unified message. No serious Street demonstrations have arisen.

The courts have ruled against Trump but these are mostly preliminary injunctions. Concerning birthright citizenship, it has always been unrealistic to suppose that the matter can get to the Supreme Court in a posture in which an executive order could reverse a century of practice. If the case is to be won it must the won in the Supreme Court.

Eventually some of these matters will have to be reinforced with legislation and then the perennial squishy character of the Republicans will be put to the test. So far, when it comes to preparing one beautiful bill, or two, our legislators have been playing true to form.

Meanwhile Trump/Musk are staying ahead of the power curve and making the odds of a favorable court decisions and legislative decisions better as they accumulate public approval.

REPORT: NGOs EMERGE AS “SHADOW GOVERNMENT” WITH 55,000 ORGANIZATIONS

Fractal technology maps previously hidden connections between 55,000 liberal NGOs, revealing how tax dollars allegedly flow through major institutions like Vanguard and Morgan Stanley to groups like the Chinese Progressive Association.

This breakthrough tracking system can now monitor “every dollar going to every NGO,” exposing intricate funding webs that traditional tech couldn’t detect.

Example: Black Voters Matter Fund’s $4M distribution network was invisible until quantum mapping revealed dozens of subsidiary organizations.

The unprecedented mapping reveals a previously hidden web of financial relationships.

#1. Get the payroll records on everyone, even the horses in the payroll. Name, address, beneficaries, everything
#2. Get Treasury records. Match dollars with beneficiary banking coordinates.
#3. Dig. Do not ask for FISA warrants. Nobody has yet cared about FISA corruption and abuse

The corruption that Trump, and Musk’s DOGE, are uncovering is truly historic.
<><>the USAID budget is larger than the CIA and the State Dept combined,
<><>much of the money funded a vast network of global liberal activists and liberal causes
<><>Sen Josh Hawley says Dems “are losing their minds” over “liberal supply chains” being cut off…

He has a second weapon - he’s not bought by the deep state. He has ambition and has probably been studying this mess for years (as has Trump and a few other insiders).

This is all moving at breakneck speed because they had mapped out so much of it prior to even taking the reins.

I’m so very glad that this is happening. All the stuff we all have been saying, screaming for years and its finally being brought to light.

I understand what you mean. Although I’m not into AI, computers, etc., it would be exhilarating to be part of any project so meaningful and high paced. I’m in awe.

“How @POTUS + @DOGE cracked Washington’s administrative state, starting with Treasury and USAID.”

It’s probably been reported how PDJT knew exactly where to send DOGE less than two weeks into his term. I haven’t seen anything definite, though. He knew somehow; he didn’t put all the agency names in a fishbowl, and pull that one out randomly. Patriotic whistle blower while Biden was in office?

I’ve heard that Glenn Beck and RFK, Jr., have been focused on corruption in USAID for a long time, but don’t know if that’s true.
