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

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.

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.

Biden’s Climate Fund Under FBI Investigation

The U.S. Department of Justice and FBI have initiated investigations into the allocation of $20 billion from the Environmental Protection Agency’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. This fund, part of the Inflation Reduction Act, has been criticized for distributing funds to newly established environmental groups, raising concerns about the process's transparency and legality. Notably, Vice President Kamala Harris presented nearly $7 billion to Climate United Fund, which has since been unable to manage its finances effectively due to the fund freeze.
