President Trump’s administration has uncovered illegal immigrants in both Social Security and Medicare. And families of dead recipients are still receiving Social Security benefits. The White House’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has uncovered even more outrageous spending, like experiments attempting to "trans" mice.
Some panicked Democrats and liberal organizations have filed suit to stop President Trump.
The lawsuit explicitly mentions the speed at which the government is moving — as if doing something at sloth speed would make it more constitutional. They argue that it is somehow illegal to expect the same responsiveness in our public service that we expect from private companies.
Congress holds the purse strings. Yet, for far too long it has passed these outrageous budgets. With the impending budget deadline, Congress needs to use the budget reconciliation to slash the spending, which includes a long list of insane spending, like 168,000 dollars for an Anthony Fauci exhibit at the NIH museum.
Urge Congress to act now, to end this outrageous waste throughout our government.

After uncovering USAID spending that makes your blood boil, DOGE plans to focus on are both the Department of Education (DOE) and the Department of Defense (DOD). The DOD’s budget is nearly 850 billion dollars while the DOE is 103 billion dollars. Legitimate defense spending is one thing, but the DOE is worthless.
Combined, these two agencies account for 953 billion dollars in spending — on an annual basis. That’s 2.6 billion dollars every day!
In addition, the waste in our military is atrocious. In 2018, the U.S. Navy found an entire warehouse in Jacksonville, FL, that housed plane parts worth 126 million dollars for three different planes. The military hadn’t just lost the parts, it lost the entire warehouse!
In 2022-2023, the DOD found in multiple warehouses 1.31 billion dollars’ worth of equipment for tanks and other armored vehicles. These critical parts were visibly rusty. In addition, the parts were not sorted properly, and the manager was "unsure whether any of the engines were in a condition that they could still be repaired."
This is a massive problem of waste and inefficiency.
We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to demand that Congress end the corrupt spending. We must fight against the resistance of the deep state and the deep swamp. With budget reconciliation, spending bills can be passed in the Senate by a simple majority vote.
Urge Congress to slash this outrageous and nonessential spending.
This waste is spread throughout the government, and it is unbelievable.
10 billion dollars to maintain, lease, and furnish "almost entirely empty buildings."
15 million "to turn the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) into an unconstitutional force to prepare, file, and audit your hard-earned money."
12 million by the Department of the Interior (DOI) spent "on a Las Vegas Pickleball Complex."
More than 10 million to create "transgender mice, rats, and monkeys."
More than 7 million "on various magical projects."
2 million from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) "to study kids looking at Facebook ads about food."
720,479 dollars provided by the DOI for "wetland conservation projects for ducks in Mexico."
419,470 spent by HHS to "determine if lonely rats seek cocaine more than happy rats."
288,563 spent by the National Science Foundation (NSF) "to ensure bird watching groups have safe spaces."
The list is endless!
Our tax dollars are being wasted, but even worse than the waste is the fact that we are funding projects that undermine America and American values. We need to hold Congress’ feet to the fire and demand an end to this waste.
Urge Congress to slash this outrageous and nonessential spending.
Our team is actively working on Capitol Hill. We continue to research and to publish our findings to those in leadership.
Last week I met with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This week some of our team has been invited to the White House.
God is opening doors, and we have unprecedented opportunity to make lasting change. We need your prayers and financial support.
