President Donald Trump suggested that Elon Musk’s government efficiency team has found irregularities while examining data at the US Treasury Department, and intimated that may lead the US to disregard some payments.

Hey folks, all this spending data has been available to the public since 2006. No secrets. No need to break into offices and shut them down. Why can’t journalists report that? What are you all do fucking scared of?
Stiffing bond holders is not the way to manage the debt limit Donald. Has undesirable side effects like financial markets collapse, hyper inflation, and impeachment.
Is this team a bunch of accountants and auditors that found these irregularities or was it a bunch of programmers? Who's going to validate their results? Is there going to be an independent audit against what was found? If not, this is just going to be he said she said.
Your framing of this is incredibly misleading and wildly inaccurate. They’re just saying that, there is no evidence whatsoever to back up any of that. Please be better at your job.
Prove it. Do a proper audit. The treasury is continually audited. Elon and Trump are a political organization. The deep state is doing the people's work that needs to have a functioning government. This is damaging the United States by invoking politics when work needs to get done.
Something that became clear after that salute, is that you just buy the media narrative. (Many media sources flooded the zone with positive Elon opinions that week)
There are no diversions, or smoke screens, or any of that. They really mean everything they say. Normal people try to make sense of the chaos by saying it must be cover for something else - it's not.
Or:
Elon Musks illegal hackers say they illegally dived into the software, and after installing a back door, they schemed up some numbers to imply the US Treasury was cheating itself.
Wall Street supports felon Trump, who is gonna tank the economy, dismantle democracy, default on US debt, imperial national security, and remove US as a strength in the world.
Dammit... Republicans need to step up. Are you all Nazis? Who the fuck is Musk to be allowed a deep dive into confidential records? He bought his way into government dealings that he is clueless about.
What qualifies Musk as a financial auditor? He’s not an accountant, he’s not a lawyer. And even if he was no one could audit that fast. It’s total bullshit.
Musk was tasked to review, study these agencies. That takes time. He has seized buildings, locked out employees he pre planned to fire with no internal review, accessed computer systems and dumped data onto his servers .(1)
Who knows how (or anyone of his minions) plan to use it in the future.
The big lie was that musk would deliberate, review each agency. The plan was to seize and shutter providing no concrete analysis, proof, stats, or documentation.
This is classic authoritarian “speak” cast doubt, cause confusion, point blame, manipulate truth, stir up anger. This is tRump’s playbook, just because it’s mighty musk, it doesn’t mean the purpose is different
Elon Musk and his juvenile team of bad actors have ZERO say as to what is good or bad. They aren’t elected by the voters. This is all dishonest bullshit. And we all know trump lies every time he opens his mouth.
How responsible would you say is it parroting the opinions of two conspiratorial non-experts as a headline, on a scale of "not at all" to "wow that's so dumb of you to do"?
Does anyone of these incels have a background in accounting or are we in the trust me bro stage now? These little twerps are pushing buttons with the full faith and credit of the US in their hands. No one voted for that. Only the cult is trying to convince themselves that they did.
@kpmgus.bsky.social treasury auditor and rating agencies standard and poors and moodys likely have some information and views on this—usually not good to fail to pay your bills Info on govt spend already available https://usaspending.gov. that co pres & kid techies found some treasure trove diversion
How would Elon and a bunch a 20-something programmers have any idea which payments are legit and which are irregular? They wouldn’t. That’s how we know they’re full of shit.
exactly. They are coders, not accountants. Audits need to be performed by certified CPA and forensic financial examiners. So for sure this is crap. No one should believe a thing president Leon says.
And they’re making assumptions based on the payee. Doubt if they’re digging into to all these payments to see if they’re actually fraudulent. Musk and the Teens figured out everything in a week. Sure, bud
Well that my 2 cents. They could be using an AI with an algorithm that measures payment sustainability over a set number of years. Not saying it right just saying that could be a part of how they are doing it.
It may be proven later to have been better for them if they did it legally.
That could be a way they are using it, which would be reckless. What everyone may notice is there are no accountants on these teams. Just engineers. Engineers can build models, but I think they still have to be proven to be effective.
Regardless he’s breaking constitutional law by doing this.
Explain like I’m 5 years old why we should take the word of a man who:
-was found guilty of bank fraud and ordered to pay half a billion in fines
-was found guilty of 34 federal felonies for illegal business dealings
-bankrupted four casinos
-is currently ignoring Article 1 of the Constitution
I think they'd say something like "it's rigged" or "fake news" or "sounds like TDS". We're in the upside down where no one apparently needs to make sense anymore or justify anything, or use evidence, or follow the constitution. Us normies are kinda cooked. Something has to give soon.
I guess we're simply supposed to take their word for it. Bring it before a court now or later, but only about 35% of America is dumb enough not to verify what the lifelong conman and convicted felon and/or his neo-nazi boss say.
@warren.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov you know what to do with this claim! Pin down exactly what irregularities DOGE found by sending another letter to Treasury Secretary Bessent.
Elon Musk is a #traitor! Anyone in government standing by is complacent in active #treason! This a direct violation of your oath of office! The dismantlement of our government will only harm the American people & you! This recklessness & disregard to our founding principles is unconscionable!
Reminds me of when Elon was gutting Twitter, and they just stopped paying leases on office buildings they had rented. The owners had to sue to get their rent.
Some irregularities!? We need specifics and a true picture of what these irregularities are before cutting funds to programs. Do Musk and his minions really think the public would believe without evidence anything he says?
he's talking about a Musk tweet about not de-duplicating the SSN database. he presumed that was all fraud. it's not. there are quite a few use cases that could have come up. different cases per state, death benefits, etc. there are entire teams at SSA making sure none of that is fraud.
Here it goes, the fucken fascist Nazi’s will only give pymt back to those who fall in line to the new authoritarian order. Our so called political representatives sitting letting this SHIT happen, WTF 🤬
Where the fuck are the courts, judges, FBI etc to stop this shit! Do I need to arm myself?
I could not POSSIBLY CARE LESS what fucking DOGE thinks they found. Bring in experts to analyze whatever it is they think they found & go through a rigorous process, in full public view, until we see what is true.
Democracy dies in darkness - and these fools are in the shadows.

Insanity!
Sounds like Trump's longtime MO.
Isn't that waste? 🤔
Bunch of liars and clowns.
This is a coup. Period.
Would it have anything to do with Herr Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act perhaps?

Competent auditors can spend years investigating government institutions before they find any irregularities.
And Trump would have us believe that Musk & his pack of dickheads have found irregular data in a matter of days?
Pull the other one. It's got bells on it.
The big lie was that musk would deliberate, review each agency. The plan was to seize and shutter providing no concrete analysis, proof, stats, or documentation.
Like Elon getting billions in government contracts.
And failing to deliver.
They are always aggrieved, always the victim, and this has to stop
That goes against everything that Trump stands for.
Must end now!
It may be proven later to have been better for them if they did it legally.
Regardless he’s breaking constitutional law by doing this.
AI Overview
Pathocracy is a form of government where a small group of people with personality disorders control a society.
The term was developed by Polish psychologist Andrzej Lobaczewski.
Did you think to fact check him or just let him lie with impunity??
I've just been calling him elroy.
-was found guilty of bank fraud and ordered to pay half a billion in fines
-was found guilty of 34 federal felonies for illegal business dealings
-bankrupted four casinos
-is currently ignoring Article 1 of the Constitution
And you, Bloomberg, eagerly spread it around like farmers spreading dung fertilizer over their fields.
Shame on you.
IMPRISON TRUMP AND MUSK
So whatever they found was just something they wanted to cut
He is going to destroy the credit rating for the US.
We will become a third world country.
