For an industry that fashions its participants as diligent truth-seekers dedicated to uprooting government corruption, America’s legacy media has once again shown itself to be its biggest defender.
The latest case study of this phenomenon came on Tuesday during an executive order signing ceremony featuring X owner Elon Musk, who President Donald Trump tasked with leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The president’s newly signed directive lays out guidance for DOGE and the administration in “eliminating waste, bloat, and insularity” within the federal bureaucracy.
When the time came to field questions from the press, the media wasted no time in fomenting Democrats’ baseless conspiracy that Musk’s efforts to identify and remove waste from the federal government represent an unprecedented and authoritarian coup against the United States. In one particular exchange, a left-wing activist masquerading as a White House reporter asked the DOGE leader what his response is to “criticism” from his “detractors … including a lot of Democrats … [who] say that [he’s] orchestrating a hostile takeover of government and doing it in a non-transparent way.”
Musk responded to the non-question by noting how “a majority of the public” gave the administration a “strong[] mandate” to root out government waste when they elected Trump and gave Republicans control of Congress. He additionally highlighted how Trump made no secret about his plans to undertake such actions during the 2024 campaign.
“The people voted for major government reform. There should be no doubt about that. That was on the campaign. The president spoke about that at every rally,” Musk said. “The people voted for major government reform, and that’s what the people are going to get.”

Much of the waste and abuse of taxpayer money that’s being exposed by the government watchdog is easily discoverable. As The Federalist’s Beth Brelje recently observed, “A lot of this information has been readily available on the government spending website USAspending.gov, which was spurred to life in 2006 in part through the efforts of Federalist CEO and Co-Founder Sean Davis.”
~Snip~
Whether it was pushing the Russia collusion hoax or participating in the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, the press have happily acted as mouthpieces for Democrats and unelected leftist bureaucrats seeking to undermine Trump and the will of the people. At every turn, the truth has taken a backseat to the Democrat Party agenda, allowing bureaucratic corruption to continue unabated.
The media’s sudden interest in “transparency” over DOGE has nothing to do with holding officials accountable or keeping the public informed. It has everything to do with upholding the status quo they’ve spent decades protecting, and they will say or do anything to keep it.


Commentary:
Well, for four years the Biden administration pledged transparencyand the pub;iv saw litle if and coming from the White House.
However, despite all the media hype, Trump has held more open transparent interviews with the media than Joey B. did in his four years of driving America into the ground.
Trump's creation of DOGE and appoint Elon Musk to carry it out is brilliant. Most of all DOGE has and will uncover more agency and Democrat corruption each day that passes.
This what a free press would have done decades ago had they been honest unbiased and equally handed in their "journalism"
Think of it. Had Kamaltoe won the election we wouldn’t ever had known about ANY of this agency incompetence, corruption and the crimes would continue until one day she would hold a press conference to announce that the US was bankrupt and the government was taken over by China because we couldn't pay our debts.

 

[scruffy]

Exactly.

Investigative journalism my foot.

 

[BackAgain]

If they DIDN’T know, then they weren’t “investigative journalists” worthy of that name.

If they DID know, then it could only have been a conspiracy and a coverup.

Some super pac or.wealthy person (maybe even Elon himself?) should pay for ads to the American people on MSNBC and cNN outlining what DOGE has found, the amount of fraudulent payments etc so that everyone can be fully aware of this. Also, Trump should have a weeekly DOGE presser with Elon to keep Americans informed. This is critical work and I suspect it is makng European alies worried as well due to some of their.organizations being given so much money

Well, to be fair, the media was paid well in order to hide the truth.
I just hope that now that Trump has pulled Biden's security briefings, that he also pulls the entire Biden family's visas and restricts them to no travel outside the USA.
I don't want them fleeing when Trump sends the SWAT teams at 4AM to kick down their doors.

Joe ought to be sent to Gitmo and waterboarded. Not for any particular secrets, just waterboarded.

 

[PredFan]

Now the media is trying to twist all this into DOGE being a bad thing.

The left is supporting the Sheriff of Nottingham and DOGE is Robin Hood.

The kicker is that Trump. has pressers every day, Karoline Levitt is an all-star who doesn't have a "Baghdad Bob" imitation like KJP did, and the MSM still supports the crooks.
Pam Bondi needs to start arresting government crooks to get the MSM's attention that DOGE is not political theater.

 

[Curried Goats]

No one is going to be arrested you Simps because what they are calling fraud is simply government spending they don't like. Morons.

Bull shit. those people who broke the law and gave money to the illegals in NY, BROKE THE LAW. Arrest them pronto.

There won't be any arrests. Republicans only know how who break government. They don't know how to run a government.

Thanks for proving my point that Pam Bondi needs to start arresting and prosecuting government crooks to prove that DOGE is not political theater.

Just like Trump............$250 million.
Bondi is for sale..........$25,000.

Jun 7, 2016 · Four days after announcing her involvement, Bondi received a contribution of $25,000 to her campaign fund from Trump’s foundation, according to the Associated Press.

What good is the press conference if it’s just lies? Like claiming there was $50 million for condoms for hamas. Totally fabricated. Totally untrue.

They don’t care.

 

[Z99]

The so-called "media" is paid by the Washington Cartel to parrot their lies. Legacy media have ALL been corrupted. My main source of news is X.

 

[SeaMajor7]

They don’t care.

Because you say so?
Get lost, asshole.

But she won't and a Simp like you will never put two and two together that the reason she doesn't is because she can't. Because there is no actual crime here.

 

[cnm]

And doing it without providing any evidence whatsoever. Luckily the payments to Leon's contracts with the government haven't been halted.

Phew!

You are being dishonest and are not representing what actually occurred.

But she won't and a Simp like you will never put two and two together that the reason she doesn't is because she can't. Because there is no actual crime here.

Citizen. Please.

Be fair. You're asking him to choose between what Chump says and his own lyin' eyes.

So where the **** is this "waste, fraud and abuse". So far they keep talking about it but have not produced a single example of their claims.

So far I see them leaving medications to expire, food to rot, and funding for Americans being cancelled without a clue as to what they're doing, other than breaking things.
