In a bombshell revelation, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has exposed a shocking level of federal spending abuse, revealing that the U.S. government has over 4.6 million active credit cards in circulation, processing a staggering 90 million transactions worth nearly $40 billion in Fiscal Year 2024 alone. “The US government currently has ~4.6M active credit cards/accounts, which processed ~90M unique transactions for ~$40B of spend in FY24. DOGE is working w/ the agencies to simplify the program and reduce admin costs – we will report back in 1 week,” the account wrote.

Jahi Wise joined George Soros's foundation shortly after disbursing the funds The senior Biden administration official tasked with directing former President Joe Biden's $27 billion climate grant program oversaw a $5 billion grant from the program to his former employer, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. Jahi Wise joined the Environmental Protection Agency in December 2022 as the founding director of the newly created Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, or GGRF, according to his LinkedIn profile. In April 2024, while Wise served in that role, the EPA announced that it would award GGRF grants totaling $20 billion . . On Tuesday,...

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) pledged to “simplify” the federal government’s credit card program on Tuesday which cost taxpayers nearly $40 billion last year. “The US government currently has ~4.6M active credit cards/accounts, which processed ~90M unique transactions for ~$40B of spend in FY24,” read an X post from the cost-cutting initiative’s official account. “DOGE is working w/ the agencies to simplify the program and reduce admin costs,” the group added. DOGE said it “will report back in 1 week” with its plan to disentangle the system. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate that the federal government...

The U.S. government has been operating in a state of financial chaos for 26 years, with persistent weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting. This is not a recent issue—it’s a lifestyle for Washington, one that’s resulted in severe mismanagement of taxpayer money. The General Accounting Office has openly admitted that, year after year, there have been “material weaknesses” in the internal controls. Translation? The government’s been cooking its books for the entire century. The Department of Defense (DoD) has ongoing financial management problems, while federal agencies like the SBA and Department of Education have struggled to accurately report on...

California Governor Gavin Newsom is once again proving his loyalty—not to the hardworking taxpayers of his state, but to the ever-growing population of illegal immigrants who have flooded California thanks to the Democrats and Biden administration’s disastrous open-border policies.During the first budget hearing of 2025 for the California Assembly, Newsom’s office admitted that they grossly underestimated the cost of providing free, taxpayer-funded healthcare to illegal aliens.Originally projected at $6.5 billion, the true cost has now skyrocketed to $9.5 billion—a staggering 46.2% increase from what was initially claimed.That’s nearly $10 billion of California taxpayers’ hard-earned money being funneled into services for...

When the left lost its grip on power, Trump’s DOGE shined a light on its malfeasance, sending DC Democrats scrambling desperately to get our money out of the country. Maybe something similar will happen north of the border when Justin Trudeau leaves office next month. A Canadian version of DOGE would find plenty, judging from what Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation Franco Terrazzano has to say: “Global Affairs Canada (is doling) out $223 million to the “private sector” in South America for climate change mitigation and gender-responsive, sustainable economic development,” he wrote on X. As we learned during...

I'm infuriated, and I don't even live in California. The federal government should freeze all funding for California until they comply with federal immigration laws. Picking illegals over citizens is treason.

There have been increasing histrionics about the DOGE team gaining access to the U.S. Treasury payments system. For the last twelve years, I have noticed a pattern with the socialists/Democrats: deflect from the real issue by offering a bright, shiny object. I think that is happening with the Treasury histrionics right now. The screeching has been about DOGE having access to the Treasury payments system (the bright, shiny object), as if that were the only relevant system the Treasury operates. We learned about the Biden Crime Family in part from the Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) generated by (you guessed it)...

Elon Musk and the DOGE crew are now a few weeks into their work, and the examples of brazen waste, fraud, and misuse of taxpayer funds are exploding forth like a gusher. At the first agency targeted, USAID, an early revelation was that much of the left-wing press has been quietly underwritten by the taxpayers in the form of hundreds of phony premium-priced subscriptions to such outlets as The New York Times, Associated Press, Politico, and Reuters. On February 5, the White House put out a document titled “At USAID, Waste and Abuse Runs Deep,” listing a dozen or so...

“The nature of the NGO scams is to have a cause that sounds philanthropic, like ‘Save the Orphans of Sadville’ and then they pocket the money and zero actual orphans are helped.” — Elon Musk. The exorcism of the USA just keeps revving up. You can tell by the number of revolutions-per-minute Elizabeth Warren’s head spins while she spews pea soup at the cameras. Who knew what a demon-infested slough USA Management Central was? And yes, I would like some insight as to how humble civil servants like Liz Warren accrue a $12-million fortune . . . and $30-million for...

For the past two decades, leftist activists have captured billions of dollars in taxpayer funding – domestically and abroad – under the guise of “fighting climate change.” From Al Gore preaching about the Earth being in a "frying pan" while getting rich off of Qatari oil money to John Kerry demanding taxpayers send him to climate change conferences around the world on a private jet – and much more. The environment was never the concern; it was a front for corruption and communist-style control. Last week, we were given yet another example of this grift when a solar project fully...

These funds were earmarked for the administration of financial services, but were no longer needed. @SecretaryTurner and @DOGE worked together to fix the issue and de-obligated the funds which are now available for other use by the Treasury.

a tax on troops -- taken from their Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS) payments, roughly $460 per month that is automatically deducted from the paychecks of service members who live in barracks and is intended to help cover food costs. For junior enlisted troops who earn about $30,000 annually, the cost can be consequential. 2024 financial records provided by the service from 11 of the Army's largest bases show that more than $151 million of $225 million collected from soldiers was not spent on food. Given that the Army operates 104 garrisons, the true amount of unspent funds is likely...

A $20 billion Biden administration green-energy slush fund was collecting interest at a private bank and is being distributed without proper oversight, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin reveals in an exclusive interview. President Joe Biden’s EPA parked $20 billion at the financial institution, which The Post has learned is Citibank, as part of the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. But the awardees weren’t announced until August 2024 and Citibank was not brought in until September — after Biden’s disastrous June debate performance led him to withdraw from his re-election effort in July, making for a very...

Gun-owners are getting exactly what they voted for with President Trump. There’s now an accounting for government malfeasance in process and he’s turned up the receipts. President Trump is delivering on his promise to break open the secretive spending habits of government officials. It’s exactly what voters wanted and, frankly, expected. The results, however, have been jaw-dropping. Gun control proponents have been smashing open the government piggy bank to swipe dollars for their pet gun control projects. That’s right. Gun control advocates were using taxpayer dollars to fund their campaigns to rob Americans of their Constitutionally-protected rights to keep and...

House Republicans brought the receipts to this week's "USAID Betrayal" hearing exposing the U.S. international aid agency's widespread waste and abuse of American tax dollars. Amid intense examination of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)'s spending spree, Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY), a majority member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, listed off more ways USAID has wasted taxpayer money. [snip] According to the congressional committee's findings, USAID spent: $11.75 million on measuring the effectiveness of DEI promotion efforts in Nepal (Award ID #AID367C1500001); $750,000 on Princeton University's DEI survey in the Middle East (Award ID #7200AA21C00087); $859,000 on hiring...

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ramped up grants for migrants from 2020 to 2024 — which included cash assistance to buy cars, homes and even build credit for startup businesses, according to a shocking watchdog report that found taxpayers were left on the hook for $22.6 billion. HHS’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) — which came under fire last year for having lost track of 32,000 migrant kids in the US — handed out the high sum to a host of nonprofits, effectively acting as a “giant magnet” for those crossing the US border and claiming asylum,...
