The report was from 6 months ago and it's a historical number since 2003. I get what you're trying to say but by the time the report came out, no one can make the $2.7T number go down

And yet in 6 months there’s no plan. No thought of a plan. No plan for an investigation…..nothing. They could have prevented it from going up. Did they? Nope.
The Democrats **** the bed on this one and there’s no spinning out of it.

What he has done is created a new paradigm where illegals are self-deporting at a rate previously un-imagined. Maybe he's stalling on the wall because he doesn't want to get in the way of all the self-deportations.

I think they take the roads to self deport verses swimming the river to illegally enter the country.

Like Ashevolle said, you have no idea whether there was a plan or investigation (and the report is an investigation), I don't think we even have numbers more recent than June 2024. We do know the way it's being framed now is inaccurate

It's not a larger number. Elon/MTG took the same $2.7T number, pretended they discovered it and attributed it to "Medicare and Medicaid" when it was the number for all agencies across several decades

Doesn't matter who found it. Bottom line our money was misplaced and the dems knew about it. Yet you're defending them. Just how low of a human being does one have to be to defends this💩.

Both sides knew about this and did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Including Bush and Trump 1.0....

Public awareness is a good start.

Anyone noticed that they're (comparatively speaking) a bit hands-off with Trump these days, but centering the psyop on Elon now? I suspect it's because they know the will of the people has swung behind Trump this time and they're wary of rocking that directly.

All this to say that "public awareness" can be a powerful thing.

All of the dirt from Trump’s life has been exposed. There Doesn’t appear to be any significant negatives to bring out in the open anymore. Most people have solidified their opinions whether they like him or not. Musk is still in the infancy of potential dirty that is hiding under a rug.

In defense, my question was whether he was tearing it down. Not sure if he was tearing it down to sell off, or just selling off materials that were awaiting construction?

From what I read he/whomever was running the government, was actually building some sections of the wall. Maybe because he/they were getting killed on the issue.

There was plenty of dirt to be exposed, for sure. But with that said, they didn't need actual dirt when they had full steam to invent it.

I am a fan of Trump but I always want to prevent stuff from the other side. Here is a great information of programs managed by DOE that could be cut:

Here’s a reality check on what the Department of Education actually does:
What the DOE DOES:
✅
Protects students with disabilities – Enforces IEPs (Individualized Education Programs) and 504 plans under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Without this, schools could refuse accommodations to kids who need them.
✅
Ensures equal access to education – Enforces Title IX (protecting students from sex discrimination), Title VI(protecting students from racial discrimination), and laws ensuring English language learners and low-income students get a fair shot.
✅
Provides federal education funding – Sends billions to public schools, Title I schools (low-income students), special education programs, and Pell Grants for college students.
✅
Oversees federal student loans– Manages programs like Public Service Loan Forgiveness, income-driven repayment plans, and loan relief programs (yes, the ones you cheered for). And it’s said you’ll still be responsible for paying the loans you’ve already taken out regardless of if the DOE gets disbanded
✅
Holds schools accountable– Investigates discrimination, ensures civil rights laws are followed, and prevents fraud in higher education (like scam colleges that take your money and leave you with useless degrees).
✅
Supports teachers and education research – Funds initiatives to improve teaching methods, early childhood education, and STEM programs to keep our kids competitive globally.
What the DOE DOES NOT Do:
❌
Does NOT control what your kids learn – State and local school boards decide curriculum, textbooks, and what’s taught in history or science class. The DOE doesn’t force any particular agenda on schools.
❌
Does NOT run public schools – Schools are managed by states and local districts—NOT the federal government.
❌
Does NOT hire or fire teachers – Teacher salaries, hiring, and qualifications are determined by state laws and local school boards.
❌
Does NOT mandate Common Core – That’s a state decision. The DOE doesn’t force states to adopt any particular education standards.
❌
Does NOT regulate private schools – Private and religious schools operate independently, and while some federal protections apply, the DOE doesn’t dictate how they run.
❌
Does NOT set tuition prices for colleges – Public universities are funded by **state governments**, and they set their own tuition. The DOE only provides federal aid and loan programs.


Now a thought on a few items in this post.

The Federal Funding for schools has been the abusive part. The funds only come with strings attached (usually forced indoctrination programs required to get funding). Also, with most Federal Funding, it only covers the first few years and does not maintain programs, that falls on states/counties to cover. This is how Common Core and the Public schools are impacted. The second half of the DO NOTs is inaccurate. I stole this post from someone on Facebook that reposted someone else.

Still items like FAFSA and support for disability are programs we would miss and probably need to maintain.

Here's what we know, there was no priority to stop or prevent this from happening again. The reason is obvious ..........they didn't publicize it. Get it out on front of the American public.

Keep it out of the public eye so the pimping of America can go on unabated. I'm under no delusion this was a partisan affair....... I'm fully convinced everyone is in on the grift.

I'm not a fan of the way this is being packaged, it has shock value but does not lend itself to actual reform. But then again when money and power meet, and the grifters own the information there's really not much you can do but expose the grift and the grifters. Problem is by the time the money gets into the grifters accounts it's most likely been laundered so well it's virtually untraceable unless they've been careless. I just hope we can find a few of those careless individuals and it's enough to burn the rest as well.
