What does President Trump do NOW?

Let the Democrats continue to self-destruct. And allow pee rat to stay in his silly little hole as he binges on tiktok and other videos.

NBC Poll Reveals Major Shift Against Democrats

Special Counsel Robert Hur at the House Judiciary Committee
Special Counsel Robert Hur characterized Biden as a sympathetic elderly man with memory issues. Audio releases of Hur's 2024 interview with Biden have prompted critics to argue that the severity of Biden’s cognitive issues was understated.(...)

Rep. Jason Crow speaks before Former President Bill Clinton
Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) said, "We are losing support in vast swaths of the country, in rural America, in the Midwest, the places where I’m from." Crow added, "People that I grew up with who now support Donald Trump, who used to be Democrats. There’s no reason why we shouldn’t have the support of these folks, other than we have pushed, in so many ways, these people away from our party."

Some posters hate seeing videos of their cult leader, due to the fact that they hate seeing with their own lying eyes of the immature statements coming from the orange turd.

Is JP gonna keep ranting and raving about WASTE FRAUD AND ABUSE in the federal gov't now that the DOGE people are coming right out and saying it's virtually non-existent?
https://www.latintimes.com/ex-doge-empl ... use-584708

Sahil Lavingia, founder of the tech platform Gumroad, joined DOGE in March to help modernize the Veterans Affairs systems, according to NPR. As a coder with no strong political affiliation, Lavingia said he simply wanted to improve the user experience of government services.

"Abuse, to me, feels relatively nonexistent"

"I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was. This isn't to say that it can't be made more efficient — elimination of paper, elimination of faxing — but these aren't necessarily fraud, waste and abuse"

he was surprised by "how efficient the government was," and was quietly dismissed after publicly saying so.


My money is on he just keeps making the baseless claim until the cows come home. 'Eliminating the fax machines and paper saved trillions, it was all worth it!' or something along those lines.

Fraud costing U.S. government hundreds of billions a year as crime rings use stolen identities

No one knows the ins and outs of government fraud better than Linda Miller. She spent a decade at the Government Accountability Office, tracking how taxpayer money is spent and misspent, and even wrote the rulebook on preventing fraud in federal programs. (...)

In 2020, Miller was appointed to an independent watchdog committee that tracked how COVID relief money was spent.

Linda Miller: We could tell, right away, it was like, "Oh. Well, that's all gonna get stolen."

Cecilia Vega: You saw it coming?

Linda Miller: Oh, yeah. I mean, It was like they threw money in the air and just let people run around and grab it. The most egregious part is that a lot of the people who stole that money were foreign adversarial nation states.

Cecilia Vega: So who are they? Who are you talking about?

Linda Miller: We're talking about China. We're talking about Russia.

Cecilia Vega: Impersonating Americans, in a lot of cases?

Linda Miller: Yes. Right.

Who allowed MORE Fraud to be committed by limiting Identity verification? Yeah, you're right: BIDEN. Anyone surprised?

AND: BIG pots of money attract LOTS of criminals and Fraudsters. NO surprise here. Well Done, Biden. Let's go Brandon..!

Hearing Wrap Up: DOGE Subcommittee’s First Hearing Uncovers Billions Lost to Fraud and Improper Payments, Launches “War on Waste”

WASHINGTON—The Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) held its inaugural hearing today titled “The War on Waste: Stamping Out the Scourge of Improper Payments and Fraud” to investigate the hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ dollars wasted annually on improper payments and fraud. Expert witnesses shared step-by-step plans to improve payment systems, close loopholes, decrease fraud, and save American taxpayers billions of dollars every year. Members explained how the DOGE Subcommittee will aid President Trump and Elon Musk in their efforts to rein in the runaway bureaucracy. Majority members also cited potential legislation that would help facilitate DOGE’s efforts to improve payment accuracy and eliminate improper payments and fraud across federal agencies. The DOGE Subcommittee’s “War on Waste” will help ensure Americans see their tax dollars spent efficiently and effectively.

The DOGE Subcommittee will actively work with President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency to root out waste, shore up vulnerable payment systems, and fully investigate schemes to defraud taxpayers.

Dawn Royal, a certified welfare investigator and the Director of United Council on Welfare Fraud, explained how career bureaucrats, currently facing scrutiny from President Trump and Elon Musk, play down problems in the system in an effort to protect their political interests: “Investigators have also found themselves at odds with the career bureaucrats who recite watered down facts about fraud in order to promote their political agendas. Specifically, we can look to the career bureaucrats who have historically claimed that the fraud rate in SNAP is less than 1%. The disregard for the value of integrity is evidenced by the less than 1/20 of 1% of the SNAP budget spent on the prevention, detection, and prosecution of fraud…Sadly, it is already apparent that career bureaucrats are not being totally transparent as they attempt to protect spending and broken programs.”

Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) celebrated the success of President Trump, Elon Musk, and their Department of Government Efficiency in swiftly rooting out government waste and also thanked Subcommittee Chairwoman Greene for her efforts to bring the DOGE agenda to Congress: “Thankfully with DOGE, we have a president bringing the leadership needed and a focused effort, along with the talent, technology, tools, and transparency to this waste, fraud and abuse. And to those who would stand opposed to this effort, I would just point out, while it’s understandable to find waste, fraud and abuse that has grown and metastasized in the government even over decades, certainly accelerated in the last few years, to continue to protect it is corruption. I want to thank the Chair for beginning this war on waste on this side of Pennsylvania Avenue and bringing together this Committee. This effort is so important as we work to relieve the American people of this burden of waste, fraud and abuse.”

Fraud and abuse of federal taxpayer dollars can be curbed dramatically by closing eligibility loopholes, improving identity verification, and refining payment tracking mechanisms at both the federal and state level.

Haywood Talcove, the Chief Executive Officer of LexisNexis Risk Solutions for Government, laid out a three-step plan for reclaiming control of federal payment systems: “There’s no excuse for the government to lag if we do the following. Number one, implement identity verification on the front end. Criminals should never receive a dime. Eliminate self-certification. No more honor system for billion-dollar programs. And continuous auditing. Keep verifying because criminals never stop adapting.”
Ms. Royal detailed commonsense solutions to closing loopholes, improving technology, and reducing fraud across all payment systems: “There are things this Committee can do to help the investigators fighting the war on fraud. Number one, eliminate self-attestation in the application process for all programs. Number two, funding for technology that includes identity verification tools that will help prevent fraud. The current pay and chase model is not sustainable. Number three, immediately implement the National Accuracy Clearinghouse, the NAC will provide data to states to prevent duplicate participation in all of the social welfare programs. And four, allocate direct funding with mandates restricting the use of the funding to the prevention, detection, and prosecution of fraud.”

(...)
Stewart Whitson, the Senior Director of Federal Affairs at the Foundation for Government Accountability, described how policies pushed by the Biden Administration exacted a cost on Americans: “Congress can strengthen the Medicaid program through legislative action. That would include repealing Biden’s disastrous Medicaid streamlining rule, which ties the hands of states trying to remove ineligible release….Congress can help President Trump’s DOJ’s effort by ensuring that entrenched partisan bureaucrats don’t stand in the way of reform so much as DOJ’s team of 30 found hundreds of billions of dollars funneled into wasteful, fraudulent and flat-out insane projects. But they’ve only scratched the surface if this much fraud has been exposed in just a few weeks. Imagine what else is buried under layers of red tape and government excuses.”

Rep. William Timmons (R-S.C.) slammed former President Joe Biden for abusing federal payment systems and contributing to the dangerously high national debt: “Joe Biden signed his name and wanted the American people to believe he had the ability to forgive $250 billion with a signature. Guess what? The Supreme Court ruled he did not. That’s our system of checks and balances. The President, Biden, he clearly was experiencing cognitive decline. He didn’t even have the ability to be charged with a crime as determined by his own Department of Justice. But he signs his name, and he thinks it gives a quarter of trillion dollars away, redistributes taxpayer dollars. It’s just crazy that we can’t come together to address the greatest national security threat facing this country, our debt.”

DOGE Subcommittee Chairwoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) shed light on a striking disparity in fraud rates between the public and private sectors, noting that while private sector businesses experience fraud at a rate of around 3 percent, the federal government’s fraud rate is about 20 percent.

Mr. Talcove: “Yes. The fraud rate, that the criminals are taking advantage of the public sector is around 20%. In the private sector, it’s around 3%. And it’s really because the tools that are used in the private sector, aren’t used in the public sector. Front end identity verification, self-certification, and then finally, making sure that individuals are who they say they are. If we start using these tools, you will see the fraud rate go down dramatically because for the most part, this fraud isn’t taking place by individuals. It’s individuals whose identities have been stolen on the dark web.”

(...)
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) blasted DOGE Subcommittee Democrats for defending schemes to defraud American taxpayers. He also pointed out that self-verification systems at local doctors’ offices are more secure than federal payment systems.

Mr. Whitson: “Rather than accepting self-attestation, states should have to be required to actually verify people’s identities and, here’s the key part, before they get enrolled. They shouldn’t get enrolled and then eventually come later on down the road.”

Rep. Burchett: “Including at a doctor’s appointment back in Knoxville, and the verification process is very extensive. It’s more so than the federal government requires for any of this.”
(...)
Rep. Burlison: “Yeah, the Office of Management and Budget was created, Environment Protection Agency was created, the US Digital Service, which is now DOGE, was created, all by executive order.”

Rep. Brian Jack (R-Ga.) described technological inefficiencies, established by the 1974 Privacy Act, that must be updated to allow federal payment systems to use AI and other cutting-edge technologies to reduce improper payments.

(...)
Rep. Gill: “The Democrat Party has for decades systematically grown and weaponized the administrative state against the American people. And the American people have had enough of it. Right now, we’re talking about $2.7 trillion in improper payments since 2003.

Watching a recent installment of 60 Minutes (CBS) I saw a report that revealed that about 1/3 of the phone calls made to the Social Security Administration were to change the recipient in an effort to divert funds to the WRONG PERSON, i.e., FRAUD.

BUT wait, there is MORE:

Billions in waste, zero oversight: DOGE reveals what Congress refused to see

(...)
Why did it take an executive order from the president to have someone take a deep dive into how federal agencies spend their money? Given the fact that there is a Government Accountability Office (GAO) answerable to Congress, how is it that DOGE is finding so many instances of egregious waste of federal funds? (I would say taxpayer money, but so much is borrowed.)

One such example is from a small agency called the United States Institute of Peace (USIP). Funded at about $55 million a year—not a lot of money by federal standards—it’s not clear to me what USIP’s purpose is. This “peace” agency has an armory full of weapons and spent a good deal of money on private jet travel. When DOGE came knocking, the agency accountant deleted a terabyte of accounting data (since recovered), a clear case of obstruction. Every year, leftover funds were hidden by sweeping them into a private bank account.

The Inter-American Foundation, an agency created to hand out grants and funded at $50 million a year, spends almost half the money (42%) on management and travel. Meanwhile, the Small Business Administration (SBA) has given $330 million in loans to people whose birth dates, according to SBA records, would make the loan recipients over 120 years old. That might be fraud, or it might be an egregious lack of attention to detail. Either way, it’s not good.

This happened because past presidential administrations, and more importantly, the United States Congress, just didn’t care.
