Exclusive: Report Reveals Uncle Sam Has
No Idea If Feds Are Handing Out Taxpayer
Dollars To Wrong People

A new report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that the government cannot tell if it is handing taxpayer dollars to individuals on the “do not pay list,” Republican Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation Monday. A draft of the report reviewed by the DCNF exposed that there is no way to cross-reference the USASpending.gov records detailing who receives government awards with who is on the “do not pay list.” Current law requires government expenditures to be listed on USASpending.gov so Americans can see who is receiving their taxpayer dollars, although there is currently no way of knowing whether the individuals receiving the funds

It's all deliberate of course, to keep things fuzzy. Then you have the IRS that knows about every damned dime that enters your bank account or your pocket because it can't have you cheating them out of THEIR money.

FTA: 'The report recommended that Congress assign an agency a lead role in establishing and enforcing data compatibility requirements.' That's a good one! Inaction, incompetence, and graft are the reason they never did that in the first place.

That's been known for many, many decades. They don't know WHO cashes the checks, Treasury only knows what's written on the checks sent. DOGE was the best thing Trump ever did, and he needs to do it every year of his Administration until DC gets wise to making the Federal Government more efficient and responsible.

Yes, bring back DOGE. DOGE is not ensconced inside DC and the federal government so they have nothing to lose exposing the rot.

The politicians don't care enough to stop this corruption. If they need more money, they just raises taxes or implement fees. Plenty of taxpayer money left to use. No wonder countries have revolutions.

Luigi Mangione bizarrely withdraws ‘extreme

Luigi Mangione has abruptly scrapped the psychiatric defense he planned to use at his upcoming trial in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. “The defense respectfully withdraws CPL 250.10 notice at this time,” the accused killer’s lawyers wrote to Judge Gregory Carro in Manhattan Supreme Court. The letter — which refer to the specific part of New York’s criminal code — means Mangione no longer plans to claim he was overtaken by an “extreme emotional disturbance” when he gunned down Thompson on a Midtown sidewalk in December 2024. The eyebrow-raising tactic would have knocked the charge down to manslaughter instead of murder — carrying less prison time — if jurors bought

In the left’s ongoing crusade to separate vulnerable children from the influence of their parents, Democrats in the Failed State of California are pushing a bill that would allow minor children to divorce their parents. As you read this, keep in mind that this has nothing to do with protecting children. Quite the opposite, in fact. This is all about removing children from the protection of their families so they can be corrupted and exploited. “The bill [AB 1967] allows any minor residing in any residential facility to file a legal application against their parents, without cause or evidence of harm,” reports the Post Millennial. “Residential facilities include

It's a big day for the Democrat Party - as four previous Presidents and their liberal celebrity friends descended on Chicago for the grand opening of Barack Obama's library. The 43rd president's library hosted its opening ceremony on Thursday morning at the massive Jackson Park building in the city's south side , where Michelle Obama grew up, and where the couple settled before he entered the White House in 2009. The campus, which officially opens its doors to the public on Friday, was flooded with prominent political figures and celebrities as a boatload of festivities kicked off to celebrate the big day.

An "ultra-luxury" drug and alcohol rehab center nestled in the Hollywood Hills has hired former first son Hunter Biden as an adviser and executive director of its charitable foundation, a new gig that could help the convicted felon whittle down millions of dollars in unpaid legal bills and other debts. Peak Path Health announced Biden’s hire this week, touting his "lived experience and professional insight" from his struggles with addiction to crack, alcohol, and other substances. "The announcement comes during a meaningful milestone in Hunter Biden's personal journey, as he celebrates seven years of sobriety this month," says Peak Path.

The Texas GOP rejected individuals with ties to an organization that Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott designated as linked to terrorist groups, trying to serve as delegates at their convention. Left-wing Texas media went out of its way to falsely present the story as one of anti-Muslim bigotry. At the Republican Party of Texas Convention in Houston in June, individuals with ties to CAIR attempted to serve as delegates to the state GOP. When party members objected and tried to remove them, the Texas Tribune inverted the facts in order to frame the infiltrators as victims. In reality it was an attempted invasion by an Islamic advocacy network with documented

Georgia State Senate candidate Ruwa Romman has won the Democrat nomination following a runoff race on Tuesday.

With 99 percent of the vote counted as of 9:03 am on Wednesday, Romman had received 60.1 percent of the vote in the race for District 7, while Garabadu received 39.9 percent. Romman became the first Muslim woman in the Georgia State House and Palestinian American elected to a state office in 2022 and is now a step closer to the State Senate.

President Donald Trump is going full speed ahead with his disastrous Iran deal, and that’s not good news for Americans, Israelis, Iranians, or anyone else. Fox News reported Wednesday that the Trump administration finally disclosed the details, which include “plans for immediate waivers on Iranian oil exports, a framework for at least $300 billion in reconstruction and economic development, and a 60-day negotiation period aimed at securing a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear program.” Trump himself boosted the deal before the press on the same day, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on his right and Secretary of State Marco Rubio on his left.

In February 2023, a few months after ChatGPT's public release, the media watchdog NewsGuard announced a new tool for artificial intelligence companies. The company, which rates the credibility of news outlets on a 100-point scale, had been selling its data to advertisers with the goal of steering them away from "unreliable" sources. Now it would license the same data to AI companies in a "machine-readable" format, ideal for training chatbots to avoid "misinformation." NewsGuard—whose cofounder, Steven Brill, suggested in 2020 that the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop story was a "hoax"—said its ratings could help models "identify trustworthy news and information sources." It encouraged AI companies to use the data

The Ivy League is having a mental health crisis. "Forty-seven percent of surveyed seniors indicated that they experienced mental illness at some point in their time at Harvard, and 13 percent said they were unsure," according to a survey of the Class of 2026 conducted by the Harvard Crimson student newspaper. That’s more than double the rate of the general adult U.S. population, which the federal government’s National Institute of Mental Health estimates at 23.1 percent, noting that "Mental illnesses include many different conditions that vary in degree of severity, ranging from mild to moderate to severe." At Princeton, a senior survey conducted by the Princetonian student newspaper found 60.1 percent

Former President Barack Obama's $850 million presidential library in Chicago has been plunged into a fresh controversy as contractors say they still haven't been paid just days before its grand opening. African American Contractors Association president Omar Shareef said seven workers contacted him to complaint about missed payments, Front Page Mag reports. 'It's to the point that they wished they had never done [the project],' Shareef told the outlet. Some subcontractors are missing as much as seven figures in payment, and many are feeling the pressure of keeping their businesses afloat. The 225-foot tall library dubbed the 'Obamalisk' is also facing backlash from critics who have branded its design 'anti-Christian.' Pastor
America Needs Mass Remigration 7 replies

In the four years before President Trump returned to the White House, the United States of America experienced an unprecedented mass migration. From millions of ‘migrants’ crossing the border to six figures worth of unvetted Afghans being brought here illegally, the invasion wrecked entire cities, cost local communities untold billions and led to crime and violence. There’s only one way to fix it. The mass migration must be met by mass remigration. Beyond the catastrophic four years of mass migration, America has been plagued by decades of open borders, an ongoing population of illegal aliens likely measured in the tens of millions (estimates vary and obstructionism by sanctuary states and cities

Tuesday, British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, the leader of the Restore Britain party (sorry to say, at this point I think it is more accurate to look at Nigel Farage and his Reform Party as controlled opposition rather than a real choice), released a report that probably ensures that British politics won't be quite the same. His 219-page "The Rape Gang Inquiry Report" unmasks the concerted effort by British officials to cover up the systematic rape of British girls in their early teens, if that, intimidate the girls into refusing to press charges, and protect the feral Pakistani gangs who preyed on them.

A professional baseball team in Pennsylvania will be forfeiting a game on Thursday that was scheduled to be the team's Pride Night after players refused to wear LGBTQ-themed jerseys, the team announced. The York Revolution of the Atlantic League, the same league where Trevor Bauer currently plays, said the decision "was not reached lightly" in announcing the forfeit to the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs on Wednesday. The team was not afraid to throw its players under the bus in a rather scathing statement, saying it was "deeply troubled and profoundly disappointed by the decisions of these few players."

Obama has been getting a ton of media attention this week because of the opening of his hideous presidential center. During an interview with MSNOW, he said something that was truly stunning. Obama claimed that he rejects the belief that ‘the only true narrative of America is this one of oppression and exclusion.’ Is he for real? His entire political career has been based on the idea that America is the land of oppression and exclusion. It’s practically his personal brand.

And here you thought Trump was being naïve, trusting Iran to adhere to the MOU (Memo of Understanding.). It’s not a treaty or an agreement or a promise. It’s just a memo. Here is what I think Trump is doing, four steps ahead of everyone else, as usual. Trump made a big deal out of signing the MOU publicly. Cameras, people standing around, a worldwide press event of the signing. But Trump knew, and still knows full well, that the Iranians have no intention of adhering to the memo or to any future deal. They will cheat. And when they do, Trump will be able to say,

Nearly four in ten Democrats say they are “ashamed” to be American, a new survey found. The survey by The Economist/YouGov found just weeks before America’s 250th anniversary that 26 percent of Democrats say they are “somewhat ashamed” and 12 percent say they are “very ashamed” to be American. Nearly twice as many Democrats reported being somewhat or very ashamed to be American compared to overall poll respondents. Out of all U.S. adult citizens polled, 12 percent say they are “somewhat ashamed” and 8 percent say they are “very ashamed.” Still, some Democrats say they are “very proud” to be American (22 percent) or “somewhat proud” (18 percent).

Donald Trump did the right thing in Iran, for a while. He buried their enriched uranium under hundreds of feet of dirt and rock. He destroyed for years their ability to enrich more of the stuff. He made a lot of headway in crimping their ballistic weapons. He showed others in and around the Persian Gulf that the Iranians are bad guys. But then he stopped. We’d already lost, um, just about no soldiers, but there was a possibility that we might lose some. He stopped because he believed, correctly, that Americans were tired of the war.

Former Vice-President Al Gore emerged out of hiding to tout his so-called ‘prescience’ regarding global warming and it quickly backfired. On Wednesday, Gore sat down with ABC ‘News’ to reflect on the 20th anniversary of his environmental propaganda film “An Inconvenient Truth” and the current state of the planet. As TGP readers know, Gore made a series of wild predictions about global warming in the film and in public that have not come to fruition. These included announcing in 2006 that the Arctic sea ice would completely disappear in ten years. It’s now 2026, and plenty of Arctic ice remains.
