hey, where does the money go?
time to find out.
there is no way, even with AI to ferret out all these groups, their cutouts, their subterfuge and skullduggery. it’s too deep, too vast, too well hidden and camouflaged.
you cannot find them.
so you make them find you.
you shut the money off and see who squawks.
it turns out that whole cadres of federal payment officers were told “just pay whatever comes in.” do not say no. ever.
it also turns out that all you had to do was shut off the flow of free food and many the cockroaches would walk right out into the middle of the kitchen floor and announce themselves.
this will not be true for all. some programs are too secret and the folks running them too smart to step into the light. but this also means that they cannot get the money turned back on.
it’s no longer “everyone gets paid and the dirty slush flows” it’s “tell us who you are, what you’re doing, or enjoy a lifetime supply of being broke.”
no more aid agency cutout. no more fake programs to launder and shift money to unannounced and unaccountable purpose.
it became very vogue to bet against DOGE.
that bet is not faring well.
whole industries of zero skill government grubbers are suddenly going to be on the job market

It’s brilliant and about 80 years overdue.
Hate to be a pessimist but I’m not totally sure that we could ever “undo” all of the damage.

The amount of taxpayer money that has been pissed away as American infrastructure crumbles and our veterans starve.
Criminal.
Criminal.

I don't think you're being pessimistic. The only thing better than stopping going forward would be if those responsible face charges of fraud and corruption.
Before anyone says this will never happen......
did we think what we are now witnessing would happen several months ago??
We have definitely entered a new age in DC.

I keep hearing this part, and I believe it is true. This, however, is an executive function.
We need to know who told these people to do that. Stop them immediately, remove them from their positions, and investigate them for criminal activity.
