Trump Set To Reveal DOGE Report On Waste Spending
Alright, folks, buckle up because things are about to get very interesting in Washington. We’ve all heard the horror stories of government waste—billions of taxpayer dollars funneled into programs that make no sense, funding that vanishes into thin air, and let’s not even get started on the cash that somehow ends up in the hands of people who have no business receiving it. But the real question is: where is all this money actually going? Well, according to Donald Trump, we’re about to find out.
At a Wednesday Oval Office briefing, Trump gave reporters a very strong hint that he’s about to blow the lid off some of the most egregious examples of federal fraud. He didn’t mince words, either. “Tremendous fraud—there’s tremendous fraud,” he said. “And it’s hard to believe that you can have that kind of fraud.”
And then he dropped the bombshell: he’s planning a press conference on Thursday where he’ll be reading out names. That’s right—actual names of entities (and maybe even individuals) who’ve been on the receiving end of hundreds of millions, even billions of dollars in government funds.

Now, let’s pause for a second. Because if you’ve been paying attention, you already know that Elon Musk and his DOGE team have been on a warpath, uncovering shady spending left and right. And not surprisingly, he’s been relentlessly attacked for it. But Trump made it clear that he stands with Musk and his crew, calling them “geniuses” for exposing the swamp.
According to Trump, these guys started as a small team of 12, grew to 20, then 25, and now they’re pushing 100 investigators working to track down where this taxpayer money is actually going. If that number keeps growing, you know they’re onto something big.
But back to the money. Trump made a particularly striking point about how ridiculous some of these expenditures are. He said he went through 200 different government expenses and found exactly three that seemed reasonable. Three! Out of two hundred. Let that sink in. That’s 1.5%. The rest? Absolute insanity, apparently. And we’ll be hearing all about it on Thursday.

And let’s not forget the real issue here: corruption. According to Trump, the sheer scale of these payouts suggests there’s zero chance that some of this money isn’t finding its way back in the form of kickbacks. His example? People getting millions of dollars just to “look at something for 15 minutes” before walking away. Now, ask yourself—where do you think that money actually ends up? You don’t have to be a conspiracy theorist to figure it out.
