You are pretty dense?
So you agree. Glad we cleared that up.

.berg stop already, your TDS is bad, take your meds.
Musk showed $billions of "waste, fraud, and abuse".
Sending FEMA money to NYC to the NGOs was confirmed, and clawed back by Noem, and DOGE is just getting started.
President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s efforts to disrupt the U.S. government and hamstring federal agencies are increasingly predicated on the idea that they’re combating fraud. Trump and Musk used that word more than a dozen times in the Oval Office on Tuesday, and the Trump administration keeps citing fraud in defending itself in court.
“We have massive amounts of fraud that we’ve caught,” Trump said.
Except they seem to be having trouble locating the actual fraud.
They keep saying they’ve uncovered fraud. But when pressed for evidence, they don’t seem to have much or any.
They instead often point to programs that might sound wasteful to some but were congressionally authorized. They have also repeatedly pointed to things that have been known about for years, acting as if they had just uncovered them.
What is it they say about repeating something often enough.................? It worked with respect to virtually non-existent voter fraud. Is this the next alternative reality?
The first thing to note is that two separate judges have now rebuked the administration for claiming fraud but not producing evidence of it.berg80 Paybacks a bitch.....
At least we now know USAID isn't paying for it. Silver linings. Although it is a mystery as to who would pay for such low quality trolling..
berg will lose his/her/its paycheck if he/she/it doesn't start at least one Trump hate troll thread per day.
And that's just in this one board!
Makes a good living for sitting on his/her/its behind and lying all day.

Trump and Musk can’t seem to locate much evidence of fraud.
The first thing to note is that two separate judges have now rebuked the administration for claiming fraud but not producing evidence of it.
“The Defendants now plea that they are just trying to root out fraud,” U.S. District Judge John J. McConnell Jr. wrote Monday in finding the administration had violated a court order by failing to unfreeze the many federal grants it blocked. “But the freezes in effect now were a result of the broad categorical order, not a specific finding of possible fraud.”
U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols reached a similar conclusion in blocking Trump and Musk’s efforts to dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Where's the beef?
Rebuke away all you want... this is happening and there isn't shit you or anyone else can do about it..... Trump will go down in history as the best American president since Reagan....rebuked
Everywhere DOGE looks. I can't wait until they audit the Federal Reserve, DOD, Welfare, Medicaid, and all the other departments and agencies.Where’s the fraud?
Let me ask you a question "when was the last time there was NO FRAUD on any agency".With the amount of money the U.S has spent and in some cases the military failing every audit for years, you would be the most naive person on earth to believe there hasn't been any fraud. These aren't porch pirates, ,these are multi-million dollar transactions.
Then why can't they show us the supposed fraud?Everywhere DOGE looks.
Based on this argument then there should never be an audit on government spending?Let me ask you a question "when was the last time there was NO FRAUD on any agency".
Human nature means people are greedy and power hungry and that means that the first thing they do is try to take advantage of a situation. This has been the case for "eons" and will continue to be the case for eons more (if our world survives).
What is necessary is to control the fraud to the least that it can be. That requires guidelines to be followed, investigations done to find the fraud, and punishments for those found to be guilty.
You cannot end fraud, especially the way he is doing it, where he is destroying the agency itself (and all the good that is done by the agency). On top of that, if he replaces the agency, whoever is hired is likely to be as corrupt as the people thrown out, and perhaps even more so because Trump will be supporting that agency and as such, he will turn a blind eye to the corruption. If the agency does not get replaced, all the needed good that the agency did will disappear.
By the way, how anyone can rationally think that a totally corrupt person (as Trump has proven to be repeatedly) is there to get rid of corruption, is beyond my ability to understand. He is just there for the corruption to go into his pocket and not the pocket of others.
Except for all the fraud and waste they already uncovered. Funny you missed that.President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s efforts to disrupt the U.S. government and hamstring federal agencies are increasingly predicated on the idea that they’re combating fraud. Trump and Musk used that word more than a dozen times in the Oval Office on Tuesday, and the Trump administration keeps citing fraud in defending itself in court.

I did NOT say that. I said that you have to have restrictions and guidelines and you then investigate and prosecute those that are guilty. Nonetheless, you have to understand that you are not going to change HUMAN NATURE and that the best that you can do it control the corruption. You will never get rid of it because you have to get rid of all humans there.Based on this argument then there should never be an audit on government spending?
Who could you ever trust?
