DOGE - govt credit card holders

audit unused/unneeded credit cards has been expanded to 30 agencies. After 7 weeks, ~470k cards have been de-activated.

As a reminder, at the start of the audit,there were ~4.6M activecards/accounts, so still more work todo.!!

Credit DOGE (govt)

Crazy… almost 5 million credit cards issued to Fed employees, and the TAX PAYER foots the Bill !!!

Huh…aside from your wage / salary… imagine having a credit card to buy your needs and wants and someone ELSE is responsible to pay the bill !!!
And …ya think anyone is keeping Track of WHAT those card holders are “charging to…nearly 5 million cards? Pfff!

Mortgages, furnishings, trips, vacation for the whole family, spas, clothes, elective surgeries, transportation …blah, blah…

Pretty slick Eh?

Thanks for posting these horrible findings!

The root cause is that if there is no one responsible for overseeing the spending, it soon gets out of control. Probably true in all of the agencies. We also see it cities and states that are in the red, and in various universities as well. Common thread: someone else is paying the bills (Us!)

There is likely no way to fix any one of these. Congress might could pass a law (signed by the President) that all agencies must stay within their budgets, but who would enforce it? The Budgets themselves wire in deficit spending.

Elect responsible people to office, if possible!

Blessings.

Hi Bob -

Seems the disease is not the budget, rather that there ARE 450+ Federal Agencies that exist in the first place.

A peek at the Agenda of an “agency”.
* a freakish control over the people
* wealth confiscation of the people
* unelected appointed seemingly invisible unaccountable agents to facilitate the scam
* supposed budget for said purpose magically diverts to Americas enemies and fattens agents personal pockets
* compulsion for the American people to pay for their own demise
* satan’s playbook routinely taught in college political science 101
* Not the intent, objective, fabric of the US Constitution.
* Congress reps seated as reps OF the people? more so instigators against the people to fatten their own coffers

When a “servants” asset worth “exceeds” the “master”… that “servant” becomes the “master”…
Ever notice how “political servants”, boldly, back-patting, present themselves with the title Servant…uh “Leader”? But mean “Master”?
Psychology 101.
God warned about this.

God bless you.

Glory to God,
Taken

When running a Buisiness one should know what is going on and have total proof of where money is spent and all that is involved regarding all such money spent. If you do not, well then one is a fool !

I came across a Builder mate of mine and I pointed out some facts to him regarding my cost and what I got in my hand that was mine to keep, as if that was cash say and worked out how much $ an hour that worked out to be for the Job !

Well he abused me full on in a huff ! and he said No ! outright that I was not correct, in a blind anger rage !

I said listen mate I know what I make on every Job that I do in fact down to what is mine in the hand say. I always do so ! Like how could one be in Buisness and not know the reality, or you would end up bankrupt !

Well he did not know in fact as he worked on some stupid moronic system that he learnt. that many must work from.

When I ask, or am being told what one earns, it was always in Gross figures ! And I was like what a total moron, I do not give a rats about your Gross. because that means nothing to me ! but outright ignorance !

So I ask myself why do they say such moronic crap ! well They easy go Bankrupt ! they can be the best trademan and the hardest worker 7 days a week and all but still fail so badly in Buisness !

Same with regards Governments Clowns ! and not to mention No responsability for their actions worth a cracker ! and the majority of People are totaly happy with all such in fact ! clearly such a Nation of fools will always Fail as well !

The USA has been run by incompetent total morons in fact ! So is Australia in fact ! It's not hard to see the facts, because such sticks out like dogs balls.
Huge Money every year just totaly P up the wall for total BS nonsense ! not to mention criminal intent within that gets their hands on much of such ! but only a % of people clearly know that only say 10% goes to help others !

Just Like some charitys, if you give $100 only $10 will go to help the people in need in fact ! but most are totaly happy with that ! they must be ? but I am not ! why is that ? because I have values and standards ! I do not like anyone to be taken for a fool.
