Three guesses which party? You do the math. A pair of House Democrats barged into House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office at the Capitol on Wednesday demanding answers on why Elon Musk’s government efficiency team has access to taxpayers’ data.

Democrats act as if Musk and his team are rummaging through all individual taxpayer information and tax returns. That is just typical Democrat hysteria and fear mongering. What they are doing is looking at government expenditures. Money going out and why it it is being spent. It is very simple. Democrats are acting like spoiled rich children who just had their allowance taken away and can't spend it on whatever lavish, wasteful, and foolish things they want.

I think "thou protest too much!" The dems opposing all the auditing would make one believe that they are aware of a lot of shenanigans and deception in the Treasury Dept. The dems were all for 84000 new IRS hires to audit taxpayers. Why. Was it to keep taxpayers honest ? Well one would have to think the dems would want the audit of the Treasury, to keep it honest. something is just not adding up right!

Why would Musk need taxpayer information to reduce government spending. It's not the taxpayers spending money like drunken sailors that has caused a 36 trillion dollar deficit.

because minority women can't be criticized without dim screams of racism and misogyny which keep their base inflamed. There are around 3 million federal employees; currently only 537 are "elected". There are untold numbers of unelected federal, state and local government employees who have access to citizen's personal information. Also employees in the fields of medicine, banking, utilities,etc. "At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child — miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless.

They couldn't care less about DOGE or anyone else looking at the W-2 that belong to me and you. Their concern is that the disgust and anger of taxpayers will snowball when accessing W-2 records of government employees shows how many of our "full-time" work from home government employees are working other "full-time" jobs as well. This will cause support for DOGE to build among us serfs and who knows where this rabbit hole is going to lead. I suspect we will start seeing the names of Congressman and Senators of boths sides springing up. This could lead to the biggest incumbent purge in history ... if we are lucky....

Last year, $10 million in taxpayer money was spent creating transgender animals, a study by the White Coat Waste Project revealed. Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., laid out the misuse of taxpayer money funding "gender-affirming care" for animals during opening remarks at a subcommittee hearing Thursday. The hearing, "Transgender Lab Rats and Poisoned Puppies: Oversight of Taxpayer Funded Animal Cruelty," featured a witness from the White Coat Waste Project.

A small Philadelphia corner grocery store is the scene of yet another example of squandered taxpayer money. In this case, “nearly $2 million” in food benefits meant for the hungry went to one person. Store owner Jenny Espinal Tejada, 34, was sentenced this week to 18 months in prison. She must pay more than $1.8 million in restitution and forfeit “the proceeds of her offenses, for defrauding the U.S. government,” according to a press release from the Eastern District of Pennsylvania’s U.S. Attorney’s Office. Espinal Tejada “pleaded guilty in October to one count of wire fraud and one count of defrauding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program” (SNAP).

Burnett said he advises his patients to turn off computers and televisions to restore their mental health. Burnett, who spoke with journalist Mark Halprin Thursday night, disclosed many of his Democrat patients are experiencing a number of severe mental health issues due to former Vice President Kamala Harris being defeated. “We are dealing with depression, anxiety, all kinds of medical problems that are related to that, like insomnia, chest pain, chest pressure,” he told Halprin. “And then people are that there’s some genuine fear, panic.”

Elon Musk’s new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) now has on-site access to payments and contracting information from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which oversees the healthcare coverage to more than one third of Americans, as it seeks to root out embedded deep state fraud and waste. CMS, a part of the Department of Health and Human Service with 6,710 employees of its own, disbursed $1.5 trillion in outlays in fiscal year 2024, about 22 percent of total federal spending. Musk is in no doubt about what now lies ahead for DOGE as it hunts down those fleecing American taxpayers of their hard-earned dollars,

Trump, who Argentina's libertarian President Javier Milei considers a close ally, moved to exit the organization on his first day in office on January 20. Milei ordered Argentina's withdrawal because of "deep differences" regarding the WHO's management of health issues, notably the COVID-19 pandemic, presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni said, citing Argentina's months-long lockdown under the previous leftist government.

Mrs. Power does her very best Sally Stuthers impersonation as she claims the only purpose of USAID is to facilitate charity and life-saving public health in “underserved nations” around the world.

The Trump administration is considering three potential areas for the absorption of refugee Gazans after President Donald Trump announced that the US plans to take over the Gaza Strip and relocate those currently there to rebuild the area, N12 reported on Wednesday. According to the report, the areas being considered are Morocco, Puntland, and Somaliland. The report noted that what these three countries share in common is a strong need for US support, as Somaliland and Puntland seek international recognition, and Morocco has an ongoing territorial dispute over Western Sahara. Somaliland has been looking for recognition as an independent country.

Bishop Budde, during an inaugural prayer service at Washington National Cathedral, implored President Trump to show compassion towards vulnerable groups, including illegal aliens and members of the LGBTQ community.

Thursday's hearing featured some adorable pups. Not strictly for the reasons one might think. Mr. Crane, during a hearing on 'Rightsizing Government,' noticed that his Democrat colleagues had become a little verklempt over the idea that Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team have been making efforts to slash government waste and fraud. In fact, earlier in the hearing, the resistance party tried to catch GOP lawmakers off guard by calling for a vote to subpoena Musk.
