Joe Biden's administration has blown more than $50 billion of taxpayer cash - three times the cost of Donald Trump's border wall - on top consulting firms since entering the White House.
A Daily Mail analysis of open-source U.S. government spending data shows that the 80-year-old racked up the eye-watering amount in just over two years on the job.
The figures could raise eyebrows amongst voters in key battleground states as ordinary Americans face a cost-of-living crisis and a rise in illegal immigration.

You have to hire consultants if no one in your administration has the first clue what the heck they are doing.

How many of those consulting firms have Hunter, James, Ashley, Valerie or Frank on their Boards of Directors?

How about a one day Average Worker mid-week stay-home protest? I'd do it. I only need about 30 million more and it'd be a thing. How else can we show our displeasure at NOT being represented?

That is one of The HairSniffer's objectives..... Spend us so far into debt that the Currency collapses.
As Lenin said, "The surest way to attack the Capitalist State is to debauch the Currency."
....and The HairSniffer's handlers are doing just that.

They forgot to mention the operative word, "Democrat," consulting firms. Firms no doubt comprised of former DC Dem pols seeking payback for years of concealing Biden Crimes, as well as those doing his heavy lifting currently for re-election. The Federal Government "ATM" is truly disgusting.

Let’s hop in the Wayback Machine, turn the dial to anytime during 2017-2020 and see the response should President Trump even attempt to do this. Nuff said. It appears the Republic is lost through election fraud, a completely broken system of justice, and the typical feckless Republican Party response. Explain to me please, how we overcome these realities. Democrats are just easing us into the reality of their successful coup d’etat of 2020. They know the hookey will hit the fan when they rig 2024. By then, they will have created so much criminal chaos and financial ruin that just surviving will be the primary goal of the average American.

Personally I think it's money laundering. There is no way it should/could/would cost $50,000,000,000,000. These cooks are trying to destroy us

#11 Nailed it. I have been saying a very similar variety of your comment to my friends and family. They staged a coup in 2020, did the same thing in AZ in 2022, and why would anyone believe they won't do the same in 2024? People who will do anything to win will do anything to win and once in power will do anything to stay in power. I have an additional thought; that it will take a major catastrophe, whether natural or man-made, to get the middle class to take action and demand change. We in the middle class have had it too easy and a lot of us have our head in the sand hoping to vote our way out of this mess. After the last two elections and the abject failure of the Supreme Court, and state courts, to follow the Constitution; as in who the heck else would have standing to go to court when a fellow state violates the Constitution regarding elections?

WHY are WE paying consultants for a PRIVATE run (rerun) for the Presidency? How can that possibly be justified?

FTA: "The figures could raise eyebrows amongst voters in key battleground states as ordinary Americans face a cost-of-living crisis and a rise in illegal immigration." Are they serious? The typical American will never know this even happened, especially those who vote for anyone with a D associated with them.

One would think that with all of that money and the high-powered consulting firms, especially those who specialize in management and finance, a little good advice might have slipped through. I agree with #1, more pay-to-play with kickbacks to the Big Guy.

Gotta love consultants.
Quickly find out a company's junior employees could run the business better than any consultant (or the executives).
No doubt government is the same.
Want to waste money?
Hire a consultant.

There are too many people in our couny who are unaware that we are trillions of dollars in debt. Someone should tell the uninformed that "money does not grow on trees", and what's borrowed has to be repaid, one way or another. The people in the Biden Administration act like they are kids in a candy store and they own the candy store. Unfortunately, they'll soon be a sign outside the store that reads "Going Out Of Business".
I know nothing about economics, but I can balance my checkbook.

What is "eye watering" is the fact that during the Trump administration these same consulting firms racked up $66 billion in consulting fees. Biden is on track to outdo Trump but only in the matter of degree. These firms are not Democrat Party consulting firms. They are Democrat/Republican Party consulting firms and they are laughing all the way to the bank as this country becomes the brokest county in world history.
