Demonizing DOGE
In every election with a conservative candidate, the left’s strategy is always the same – demagoguery and demonization. To retirees, the left says, “He’s going to cut Medicare and Social Security.” To blacks, the left says, “They’re going to put you all back in chains.”
George W. Bush went out of his way to prove he wasn’t racist. It didn’t matter. When three thugs killed a black man by dragging him from their pickup truck, somehow it was Bush’s fault.
This is a consistent feature of the left. It’s not a bug. It’s not a flaw. It’s what they do. And they do it regularly because it often works. Now they’re doing it again in an effort to turn Elon Musk and the DOGE team of accomplished business executives into demons.
These are extremely intelligent individuals. (In fact, one really is a rocket scientist!) None of them need money. They’re patriots trying to make the government more efficient to ensure that resources are there for people who need government benefits.
And all they are getting in return is a barrage of intentional lies.
Musk and the members of DOGE are being doxed. They’re getting daily threats. Their businesses are being attacked. Why? Because they’re trying to save Social Security, Medicare, and veterans’ benefits by getting waste and fraud out of those programs.
But instead of helping DOGE, the Democrat response is to scare the daylights out of the elderly by lying to them. In the process, the left is exposing yet again their lack of character and moral compass.
Total Transparency
Elon Musk and members of the DOGE team were interviewed last night on Fox News. If you missed it, I encourage you to watch this revealing interview. Here’s some of what DOGE has found so far.
According to one estimate, 75% of illegal aliens coming into the country are somehow managing to steal Social Security numbers and use them to their own benefit. If Democrats want to protect Social Security, they should be working with us to stop illegal aliens from coming into America.
Aram Moghaddassi, a computer engineer on the DOGE team, said that 40% of the phone calls coming into Social Security offices are made by fraudsters, claiming to be a retiree who wants to change bank accounts.
So, the fraudster provides a stolen Social Security number and new bank information, and the Social Security benefits get transferred (stolen) from the eligible recipient’s account to the fraudster’s account.
If this fraud can be stopped, money will be saved, and people could get more in benefits.
Brad Smith, who is auditing the Department of Health and Human Services, said the department has 40 communications offices. Why? The National Institutes of Health has 27 chief information officers attempting to manage 700 different computer systems that can’t communicate with each other.
Anthony Armstrong, another member of the DOGE team, said the IRS employs 1,400 people to hand out government-issued cell phones and laptops. If they supplied only two IRS employees a day, they could supply the entire IRS workforce in just over a month. So, what on earth are they doing the rest of the year?
Steve Davis, the rocket scientist, told Fox’s Bret Baier that there are 4.6 million government-issued credit cards for 2.3 million federal employees. Presumably, not every federal employee needs a government credit card, much less two.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth just announced the cancellation of the Pentagon’s program to streamline its human resources operations. It was supposed to be a one-year, $36 million contract.
It’s years behind schedule, has cost more than $300 million, and isn’t functional. “So, that’s 780% over budget; we’re not doing that anymore,” Hegseth said.
The IRS computer system is decades old. The current program to modernize the entire system was launched not in 2016 or 2006, but in 1996! The program is 30 years behind schedule and $15 billion over budget!
Meanwhile, the IRS IT department has nearly 8,000 employees and a budget of $3.5 billion a year.
Stop The Scam
Every liberal candidate running for office rails against waste, fraud, and abuse. Yet, they can’t identify one program they want to cut. Well, it turns out they really weren’t against waste, fraud, and abuse either. Look how furious they are about DOGE right now!
One is left with the conclusion that Democrats know a lot of the waste, fraud, and abuse is going to their people. Much of it (your hard-earned tax dollars) is then used to attack conservative values or elect Democrats to office.
It’s a huge scam, and it must be stopped.
JFK v. CIA
For decades, the government kept thousands of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy secret and locked away from the public. Shortly after taking office, President Trump ordered these documents to be released.
Conservative commentator Glenn Beck has gone through the JFK papers. Beck and his investigators are concluding there is nothing in them that changes the narrative about who killed Kennedy.
But one thing is clear: Kennedy and the CIA were “at war” with each other during the two years before the assassination. There is no doubt about that.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in his 2018 book interestingly called “American Values,” wrote this: “My dad (Robert F. Kennedy) immediately suspected that the CIA had killed Uncle Jack.” (Page 267) Later, he added, “My father had no trust in the FBI or the CIA and little faith in the Secret Service. . .” (Page 268)
President Trump wanted to release the JFK files during his first term. He made some public. But it was then-CIA Director Mike Pompeo who persuaded him not to declassify the rest.
Having concerns about the CIA and the FBI doesn’t mean someone is anti-law enforcement or anti-America. What free people have known from experience throughout the ages and what our Founding Fathers understood very well is that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Over the years, often with valid reasons, we have given these agencies a lot of power. Perhaps too much power. These immense powers were meant to protect us. But it is clear from everything we have seen since the Russia collusion hoax that these powers were turned against us.
Trump’s Triumphs
President Trump is getting hammered by the DC Swamp over his America First economic agenda. So-called “free trade” is a tenet of faith for the globalist crowd. But in all the noise about tariffs, what you’re not being told about is the president’s tremendous accomplishments.
In just a little over two months, President Trump has brought $3 trillion of investment in manufacturing and new jobs to America. That’s astonishing! And it deserves to be recognized. Here’s a summary of countries and companies investing in America:
- United Arab Emirates - $1.4 trillion
- Saudi Arabia - $600 billion
- Apple - $500 billion
- NVIDIA - $100 billion
- SoftBank/OpenAI/Oracle - $100 billion
- Taiwan Semiconductor - $100 billion
- Johnson & Johnson - $55 billion
- Eli Lilly - $27 billion
- Hyundai - $20 billion
- CMA CGM Group - $20 billion
- Merck - $1 billion
- GE Aerospace - $1 billion
Rubio Is Right
Leftists are livid over the recent arrests of campus radicals. Secretary of State Marco Rubio just addressed the issue with reporters.
He told them that he personally signs off on the orders revoking student visas, saying, “We do it every day. Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visa. [It] might be more than 300 at this point.”
When pressed to explain further, Rubio unloaded with both barrels. He said:
“I think it’s stupid for any country in the world to welcome people into their country . . . [who] say, ‘I’m going to your universities to start a riot . . . to take over a library and harass people.’
“We gave you a visa to come and study and get a degree, not to become a social activist that tears up our university campuses. . .
“Every country in the world has a right to decide who comes in as a visitor and who doesn’t. If you invite me into your home . . . and I start putting mud on your couch and spray painting your kitchen, I bet you you’re gonna kick me out.
“Well, we’re gonna do the same thing. . . We don’t want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country. But you’re not gonna do it in our country.”
Good News
- The Trump administration shut down a Biden-era program that provided mortgages to illegal aliens.
- Maine surrenders in its standoff with the Trump administration over men in women’s sports.
- The University of Michigan is dumping its divisive DEI program, the most expensive in the country.
- Mississippi and South Dakota passed laws protecting women’s privacy from men pretending to be women.
- Four major corporate sponsors withdrew support from San Francisco’s Pride Weekend. One of them is Anheuser-Busch. They clearly got the message from the Dylan Mulvaney/Bud Light backlash.
BREAKING NEWS: There are rumors that President Trump will resign soon to become a federal district court judge – where the real power is!
Of course, that’s a joke.
