California exploiting Medicaid 'loophole' to pay billions for illegal immigrants' healthcare                                     

Medicaid spending is supposed to be jointly financed by the federal government and states. However, states are increasingly designing Medicaid money laundering schemes that result in massive federal expenditures without any state financial obligation. This scheme enriches insurers, attracts illegal immigrants to the United States, and adds mountains to the federal debt, all at the expense of working Americans.

Trump Proposes No Tax for Earners Below $150,000

President Donald Trump is considering a new tax policy where individuals earning less than $150,000 annually might not have to pay taxes, according to U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. This proposal is part of broader discussions on fiscal strategy as the 2017 tax cuts face expiration. The policy aims to shift taxation burdens away from internal revenue to external sources, like a 'membership fee' from other countries trading with the U.S.

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has recently directed its staff to shred and burn classified and personnel documents, following an announcement by Senator Marco Rubio about the cancellation of 83% of its contracts.

This action has raised concerns about potential cover-ups of mismanagement or corruption, especially as legal actions are underway to potentially intervene in the destruction of records. Critics argue this could be an attempt to erase evidence of wasteful spending, while routine destruction of classified materials is also part of established procedures.

Department of Government Efficiency   DOGE  

The US government currently has ~4.6M active credit cards/accounts, which processed 90M unique transactions for  ~$40B of spend in 2024

Over 200,000 cards deactivated, but 4.6 MILLION still active? This is the government’s idea of "progress"? They’ve been wasting our money for years, and we’re supposed to applaud a tiny dent in the problem? Until they get serious and cut the fat completely, this is just window

Major Overhaul: USAID Programs Slashed by 83% Under Rubio

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced the cancellation of approximately 83% of USAID's programs following a six-week review, affecting 5,200 contracts valued at tens of billions of dollars. Rubio claims these programs did not serve U.S. interests and some even caused harm. The remaining programs will be managed under the State Department for greater efficiency. This move is part of the Trump administration's strategy to cut government spending and focus on national interests.

Egg Prices Plunge

Egg prices in the United States have recently decreased by 11%, now lower than when Trump took office. This follows a period of high prices due to supply chain issues, seasonal demand, and avian flu outbreaks. The price drop is attributed to an improved supply, likely from new laying hens replacing those lost to disease, and a decrease in demand. Discussions around this topic include political attributions, with some crediting Trump for the decrease, while others emphasize the natural market recovery after disruptions.

New study reveals 'staggering' scope of how much DEI was infused into government under Biden

At least $1 trillion of taxpayer money was infused with DEI principles, the study states. "This order mandated a whole of government approach to injecting DEI philosophy into the federal budget," the study says. "In alignment with this directive, the Biden administration apparently spent trillions in DEI-related initiatives in a manner and at a speed that has shrouded public awareness of the financial burden."
