As DOGE continues to dig out the sewage that calls itself USAID.... One thing becomes clear.

The most dangerous enemy of the American public, the American people, are its own elected officials. For decades this rogue agency rolling under the cover of privacy protection has been contributing to anti-American causes and blatantly spilling out taxpayer money into boomerang investments for the benefit of numerous politicians. As it now comes under scrutiny You can expect the loudest voices will be the ones who have been stealing taxpayer money and are now finding themselves without that illicit income stream.

The most dangerous enemy of the American Public is Donald Trump and the American Oligarchs that are targeting the U.S. Treasury Department as they go after public tax dollars and the Social Security Trust Fund.

In an open letter, Robert Reich writes,

Friends,
Elon Musk vowed yesterday to unilaterally cancel hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of government grants after he and his goons gained access to the Treasury Department’s vast payments system over the weekend.
The Treasury system disburses $5.4 trillion a year, or 88 percent of all federal payments, including social security checks. David Lebryk, who had spent more than 36 years in government and was responsible for overseeing the payments system — resigned abruptly Friday rather than turn over the system to Musk.
In short, the world’s richest man bankrolled Trump’s re-election campaign to the tune of some quarter of a billion dollars. In return, Trump tasked him with running a so-called “department of government efficiency,” and allowed him to get his hands on the keys to the kingdom.
But Musk hasn’t been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never authorized by Congress. No one other than Trump has given Musk any authority. No one knows exactly who Musk’s goons are; they have not been vetted yet are handling some of the most sensitive personal information in the government.
Not even Trump has the authority to stop your Social Security payments, let alone your Medicare or Medicaid or unemployment insurance or your food stamp benefits......"

What Musk is doing is illegal.

 

[Bootstraps]

How very telling it is that people are more outraged over Musk and DOGE than they are over the corruption uncovered. It's almost like the people who have been stealing money and misappropriating it have ordered their cult to get angry. And like good children, they obeyed and rallied up in arms in anger besides the very people who are stealing from them.

It's over for them.
More hits to come.

No... It isn't.. Musk is not doing anything It is the executive branch that is doing everything. Musk can only make suggestions All of the actions are being done by legally appointed executive officials.

They are outraged because they are part of the corruption being uncovered.

Yeah Robert Reich has been wrong about every goddamn thing he opens his mouth about for the past 20 years. For a person that hates wealthy people he sure has enough millions of his own.

What kind of an idiot are you to think that protecting the tax payer's money is the same as stealing it? The people who are complaining about stealing of the ones who are on the take.
They are the thieves being uncovered right now by DOGE. An organization that works for free or at least not on the taxpayer's Dole.

What exactly has Musk done with the taxpayer's money that you see as theft? So far he's closing in on 100 billion in savings how do you see that as theft? I'm very curious about this since you made the statement. Are you upset that all of the parasites who serve no purpose and are being paid for nothing are now having their money taken away from them? Is that what you call theft?
