The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) just exposed what might be one of the most mind-blowing cases of government waste we’ve seen in years. Turns out, the federal government has 4.6 million active credit cards floating around, racking up 90 million transactions and nearly $40 billion in spending in Fiscal Year 2024 alone.
This isn’t just pocket change. It’s enough to fund border security, veterans’ healthcare, or even tax cuts for working Americans. Instead, it’s being spent by unaccountable bureaucrats who treat taxpayer money like an unlimited slush fund.
Leading the charge in reckless spending? The Department of Defense (DOD), which boasts a staggering 2.4 million individual accounts and 27.2 million transactions in just one year. Now, I’m all for funding our military, but let’s be real—this isn’t all going toward national security. How many overpriced “diversity training” seminars and woke Pentagon initiatives are getting charged to Uncle Sam’s tab?
President Trump isn’t having it. Following DOGE’s report, he wasted no time issuing a scathing memo demanding “radical transparency” across all government agencies. His statement is exactly what we need to hear:
“The United States Government spends too much money on programs, contracts, and grants that do not promote the interests of the American people.”
Exactly. For years, our tax dollars have bankrolled ridiculous pet projects, both overseas and here at home. How much of this spending went toward funding left-wing NGOs, gender studies in Pakistan, or climate change propaganda? Americans are sick of watching their hard-earned money disappear into bureaucratic black holes while our own communities struggle.
Trump has made it clear: No more blank checks for Washington insiders. He’s demanding that every federal department publish full details of any program, contract, or grant that has been terminated—so the American people can see firsthand where their money has been wasted.
And let’s be honest—this is just the tip of the iceberg. DOGE is digging deeper, and you can bet that more revelations are coming. The swamp has been looting taxpayers for decades, and now, under Trump’s leadership, we finally have someone willing to rip the lid off the whole corrupt system.
Time for the reckless spending spree to end. Washington elites should brace themselves, because accountability is coming.
