Unless there are prison terms for those involved in this as well as other corrupt actions by various agencies it will simply continue. Hopefully Bondi, Patel et al will accomplish this prior to mid terms while we still have power to do so.

Mr. Caldwell, you neglected to mention that Elon Musk has significantly lowered (again) his DOGE team's estimated "savings" -- from nearly $1 trillion (as he assured Fox News' Brett Baier) now down to a relatively paltry $150 million. And mind you, most of these "savings" have come by way of reduced services and the firings of civil employees rather than by way of the much ballyhooed elimination of fraud and abuse.

And speaking of "fraud and abuse": Have you investigated (dutiful journalist that you are) why Trump posted on his Truth Social "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!" at 9:37 a.m. Wednesday, some four hours BEFORE his 1:18 p.m. publicly-announced flip-flop on his promised "No retreat on tariffs"? I'm guessing if you did care to investigate this you'd find that such a pronouncement is illegal; per the STOCK Act of 2012 which prohibits -- by members and employees of all three government branches, including the President -- insider trading. Hmmm, who made a bundle there, I wonder?

Anyway, keep your distracted readers' hypnotic gazes focused on the thousands of dollars spent on such shiny topics as DEI comic books and transgender operas and such; you know, the important stuff.
