Gary Varvel: Deep State Dracula gets sunburned

The left is acting like Dracula being exposed to the sunshine. Obviously, they are burdened by what has been, namely, what they’ve spent our money on.

Elon Musk’s DOGE team of young geniuses are auditing government spending and finding waste, fraud, abuse and possible corruption. That is why the leftist politicians are losing their minds.

Townhall reports, U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer slapped a preliminary injunction on the Trump administration after 19 Democratic attorneys general filed a lawsuit against the president.

What are they trying to hide? The Democrats and the legacy media are defending the excessive and frivolous spending at USAID and they don’t want DOGE going any further.

So I’ll remind you of just some of the wasteful expenditures at USAID.

  • $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities”
  • $70,000 for production of a “DEI musical” in Ireland
  • $2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam
  • $47,000 for a “transgender opera” in Colombia
  • $32,000 for a “transgender comic book” in Peru
  • $2 million for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala
  • $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt
  • Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a non-profit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation.

Ronald Reagan famously said, “Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. And thanks to Trump and Musk, we’re learning just how much of a problem big government has been.

Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants,” was a famous statement made by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis in a 1913 Harper’s Weekly article. Well, Trump is shining the light on government agencies and is exposing the Deep State’s corruption.

On the Sunday show, ‘Life, Liberty & Levin,’ Fox News host Mark Levin listed all of the great things that President Donald Trump has done in his first 3 weeks and then argued that he has the potential to be the most consequential, conservative, constitutionalist President in American history.

You can keep track of up-to-date DOGE saving at the DOGE CLOCK. You can also follow daily updates on DOGE’s X page. So far Musk’s team has saved taxpayers, $36.7 billion in 2 weeks.

As you can see here, the Deep State bureaucrats make financial decisions that violate the law. In this case FEMA, spent $59 million, that was designated for American disaster relief, not to house illegal aliens.

RIGHT VIEWS

Townhall – Jeff Charles: Trump strikes back against court that blocked DOGE from scrutinizing Treasury Department.

Cal Thomas: Trump and Musk are spring cleaning the government.

The Federalist – Elle Purnell: The party that catapulted Barack Obama on the slogan “Yes We Can” has become the party of “No You Can’t.”
