Summer 2019 Waste Report

Here’s just a tiny bit of it:

$2 million to strengthen democracy in Tunisia

$2 billion to convert an abandoned hospital into a DHS HQ

Support “Green growth in Peru for $10 million

$5 million to repair NYC vehicles

$100k to the Pakistani film industry

$48 billion in improper Medicare payments

$150k teaching English and IT at Madrassas

Study frog mating calls in Panama for $466,991

Google scholar searches in Hawaii for $51.7 million

$325k for confiscated Afghanistan property

Total = $50,190,108,562.35 give or take a few bucks here and there.

After voting for the bloated budget he really doesn't have much of a standing to complain here any longer.
 
What Trump needs to do is hire a "Grace Commission II" to do a full and complete business style audit of the Federal Government and eliminate duplication, waste, fraud, and abuse.
The first Grace Commission was way back in 1982, if their recommendations were followed trillions of dollars could have been saved.

$48 billion in improper Medicare payments

$48B of $50B in Medicare? I think I know where to begin work.

Newt Gingrich advocated using private firms to audit the Fed, like credit card companies.

I like Newt. He would have made a great POTUS

If he hadn't disgraced himself been exposed as a crook he may have had a chance.
