Now they crow that Trump is saving us billions, with no actual proof that he is other then his word which is not often truth. When he and President Musk show some proof of all this fraud they are claiming I will be willing to give them credit.[\b]

Let’s help her out.

Feb 10 (Reuters) - Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico congratulated U.S. President Donald Trump's government efficiency adviser, Elon Musk, for aiming to dismantle the main U.S. aid agency, saying its funds were used to "deform the political system" in Slovakia.

"It is indisputable that financial means originating in USAID were used in Slovakia also for political aims with the aim of deforming the political system and giving advantage to selected political parties," Fico said in a letter to Musk posted on Facebook.

Fico asked Musk to provide information on grants to "non-governmental organisations, media and individual journalists active on the territory of the Slovak Republic" to find projects that he said interfered in Slovakia's internal matters.

Now, it is of my opinion that ASAID aid should never be used in political feuding whatsoever. Also, I don’t know how this request will be handled, but I would be unwilling to comply directly or immediately.

Oh, you mean the real MG.

Blu
Thanks for the effort, but you could never help me out by posting this sort of crap as proof of anything.

with your logic you most believe if someone without actual knowledge makes a statement that suites your agenda that is some sort of proof.

I am much smarter then that.

and by the way it is USAID..

Re: MG has a proposal …

Blu, she makes a good point, she's not going to accept anything unless it's from Morning Joe, The View, or one of the resident leftists in here.

Here's the real problem, they don't want it to be true that the Democrat's slush funds have been found out. It's not that they want this to be true and that they just want proof. They are petrified, because they know damn well it is true, so they want to fight it every way possible.

I say bring it on, but there has to be proof. If it can be proven, fraud is fraud.

Let's start with Musk not lying about his website having transparency as to what and why they are cutting agencies, funds that have been appropriated etc.

Right, just as Maxine Walters was just simple beside herself, talking to the press , she stated, “All of our privacy has been taken from us, we don’t know what the have on us.”

Exactly Soccer...If they have proof of fraud then do whatever it takes to stop it. Not a issue at all.

Going in and shutting down programs and funds that have been grated by Congress is not legal. The president and DOGE do not control the purse.

What seems to be happening is any program that Trump does not like gets targeted.

Posted on x as fraud and the MAGA jump on board. No questions asked.

If it is fraud and waste they are looking for, look at all funding. Introduce bills to make changes or eliminate them. Follow the rule of law.

I see Blu, so does that mean that Maxine fears she is guilty of fraud and is afraid she'll be exposed?

My guess is she is referring to Musk and all the Muskateers accessing Americans personal information.

Re: MG has a proposal …

As we all have known, well maybe not you, he has had, for a very long time, a very high security clearance through SpaceX with the DOD and military operations.

SpaceX and its launching capabilities and satellite technology keeps this Country safe from ballistic missile

He looks at what expenditures are going out, to who and for what cause, that is all.

This man could give a crap less about your personal information.

So fear monger right along with Maxine, Elizabeth, and the rest of the dumpster worthy garbage who have pocketed tax dollars and played tootsies with money donors.

I’m happy to sit here in the safety of my home while Trump, Elon, and the team are on the wall and front lines keeping me that way. You know, protecting my interests.

I just watched a clip (CNN) where Chuck, Mad Max, a bald headed black congresswoman (sorry no name) an old congressman shaking his cane and yelling terms like

“Republicans if you don’t see the light we will bring the fire”.
“ we will fight the in the halls of Congress and we will fight them in the streets”
“We tired of this and we ain’t lettin this happen” ( in best ghetto voice while she makes $160,000 a year)

Now tell me that’s not inciting violence without bringing up Jan 6. It’s okay to burn, vandalize and push cops around as long S it’s not a building that houses the clowns.

Even the CNN panelist, Jimmy Kimmel and former congressman on MSNBC were laughing and sayin Chuck should stay away from the microphone.

I say let them keep it up. Best strategy for a GOP win in 26.

Promises Made, Promises Kept!
Republicans stood, the liberal left wept.

Drill Baby Drill

A slew of them have made take it to the streets comments.…

Cory Booker has said if we need violence in the streets to get our point across, then that's what it will be. I really hope they do stop yapping and try something. It won't be like the summer of love with Blue City cops looking the other way, I'm pretty sure of that. In other words, leftists, don t sing it, bring it.

Ayanna Pressley is the black hack who recently said this.

Look, let me tell you something. I’ll take a bit of umbrage here. I’ll speak on behalf of my colleagues. I think I can say we are all willing to work with anyone who’s serious about doing the work of censoring the American people and advancing progress.

A slip of the tongue???? Hell no, this is what they believe.

Did you see yesterdays press conference with Leavitt? She brought receipts , she had a stack of found fraud and told the press here they are, you want to see it ? Did that make the news ? I didn’t see it but Dems don’t want to see it , I think you’re right Joe they don’t want it to be true. The gravy train has been stopped , we the tax paying people deserve to know where our money goes. Anybody opposed to this is probably guilty of screwing us over . If you got nothing to hide why you screaming for fights in the streets? Because you don’t like who’s finding it ? You don’t like how this is handled so you incite violence? Yeah we all know the real reason, making millions on tax payers and screwing us over ! Dem or Republican doesn’t matter , all Americans should want to know where our money goes !

Be who you are and say what you feel..because those that matter don't mind..and those that mind..don't matter.

The point is not stopping abuse, waste or fraud, it is the way it it is being done.

Musk has not been elected by "we the people" or anybody including MAGA.

He and Trump are trying to skirt over rule of law and the Constitution.

If you remember why we have a Constitution it is so no one person or department goes unchecked. That is what our forefathers envisioned when they wrote the Constitution.

Without the Constitution we are no longer a Democracy. That is what has people concerned..

I do not think anyone from the right or left supports out tax dollars being wasted or abused.

I have said it before..If someone is involved in fraud or another crime..arrest them, fine them, lock them up on either side.

Don’t worry, the courts will have their say in it.

"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

Re: MG has a proposal …

I say expose it and let the courts decide but my point is calling for violence is not the answer from the party of love . Americans want to know and constant obstruction looks guilt to me .

Be who you are and say what you feel..because those that matter don't mind..and those that mind..don't matter.

Roots

They should. If it was being done following the rule of law, the courts would not need to spend time and tax payer money on this issue..

WHM

I agree calling for violence is never the answer for either side.

I also agree that many people jump to conclusions before they see any evidence or proof.

They hear it said and assume they are hearing the facts. Often that is not the case.

What other conclusion is there when several members talk of taking it to the street and one says to bring weapons? If some obscure Republican in a city of 200 people said to take it to the streets and bring weapons, you people would be having mass aneurysms. But now its just silence.

Joe - you said "Cory Booker has said if we need violence in the streets to get our point across, then that's what it will be."

Share a link with that quote or a video of him saying that please. Or did you conveniently add the work "violence" in there? Forgive my skepticism, but you've been known to add your personalized twist to things to fit your narrative.

I do recall Booker saying something about taking it to the streets... no mention of violence.... advocating for protest, not violence.

Your motives are very transparent, you'd love nothing more than violence to break out. If anyone is advocating for violence, I think it's you.

If you can show me where Booker said those words including violence, I'll apologize.

Otherwise, you're just stirring the pot. I know, you love that.

Sooccer
Here are his exact words...of course Joe put his own spin on them...Imagine Joey doing that LOL

“We are in a crisis right now, and Democrats will use every tool possible to protect Americans,” he said on CNN. If Congress does not pass a new spending bill by March 14, the federal government will shut down.

I'm curious Joe, what Democrat said to bring a weapon?

This is partially true, Joe... here's what Rep Garcias actually said

"And what I think is really important and what the American public want is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight. This is an actual fight for democracy, for the future of this country."

Not exactly what you indicated... lots of people carry for protection, but I do think it was the wrong thing to say and don't think he has much influence on every Democrat in America.
