FOX needs to rerun this so more people can watch.

[JesusIsLord]

Please let me know when some high level bureaucrats and politicians are held accountable and sentenced to prison!!

[Dominic01]

This needs to happen. Run it as often as they can, only because every other media outlet will just snippets and then bring a pundit on with their own opinion for 15 minutes. Who cares what they think.

Much better if Trump had a weekly news conference exposing the most fragrant frauds of the week.

“the federal government was paying nearly $1 billion for an online national parks survey that resulted in no changes or other outcomes as a result of giving the survey. He said the survey should have cost $10,000.”

I suspect the company doing this survey was either making a very large campaign donation back to one or more pols. OR the company that got this survey is related to some pol.

Typically government contracts like this are put out to bid.
If the government paid $1B for something that should have cost $10K there needs to be a criminal investigation.
Think if you as a government purchasing agent had to buy a tractor for a park. Instead of paying $10K for a small John Deer tractor you paid $1 Billion for that same tractor.

Yes, Pam Bondi needs to investigate many of these things that are being uncovered, even these social security frauds being revealed.

Then left it to rot in a field.

“…nearly $1 billion for an online national parks survey”

That’s pretty hard to believe. I’d love to see details of this.

[BenLurkin]

It’s a feature, Elon, not a bug.

[woodbutcher1963]

Check my math.
It would actually be like buying 100,000 $10K tractors and then letting them rot out in the field.

[pgyanke]

That isn’t the point. They paid $1 billion for a $10,000 tractor... and let it rot in the field.

If they had 100,000 tractors, they would at least have something to show for it... rotting or not.

[joshua c]

and the inspector generals do what?

True Dat.

I guess I should have said they COULD have bought 100,000 tractors instead of ONE.

[Fledermaus]

He’s a little busy.
