If Federal government fraud, waste, and abuse is such a problem....then why is DOGE losing control of decisions regarding Federal government grants?
Just further evidence that Elon Musk's fraud, waste, and abuse crusade was total bullshit all along. Trump no longer likes Musk, so DOGE no longer matters.....Trump's corruption in plain view, for the whole world to see.
MAGAs....I thought DOGE was fighting the "Deep State"?? Why aren't you all outraged about this???
And USAID no longer exists because of Musk's bullshit.....hundreds of thousands of poor people throughout the world are now suffering and dying as a result of Musk's bullshit. What a tragedy.
From the Washington Post --
The U.S. DOGE Service has lost the power to control the government’s process for awarding billions of dollars in federal funds, the latest sign of the team’s declining influence following Elon Musk’s high-profile exit from Washington, according to two people familiar with the situation and emails obtained by The Washington Post.
Three months ago, DOGE employees wrested control of a key federal grants website, grants.gov, which serves as a clearinghouse for more than $500 billion in annual awards, The Post reported. For most of the program’s existence, federal agencies including the Defense Department posted their funding opportunities directly to the site, where thousands of outside organizations could see and apply for them — until April, when DOGE staffers changed the website’s permissions to give themselves power to review and approve all grants across the government.
But on Thursday, federal officials were instructed to stop routing the grant-making process through DOGE, according to emails obtained by The Post and the two people, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a sensitive situation. The decision follows fears that months of DOGE-linked delays would lead to what critics allege would be the illegal impoundment of federal funds.
