This is cool. The U.S. Debt Clock tracking system is now also monitoring the savings generated through the Dept of Govt Efficiency (DOGE).
$68 Billion and growing.

I had not seen this before
Good grief, I want the money back.
Sellouts doesn’t even begin to cover it. Celebrity endorsements of anything have taken a huge hit.
THANK YOU, President Trump.
Sean Penn a phony and a shill? Say it ain’t so.
Disgusting.
The Hits Keep On Coming …
USAID Helped Fund Hamas Tunnel System
https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/02/07/usaid-helped-fund-hamas-tunnel-system-n3799587
That can’t possibly be right! I was assured by Chuck Schumer that the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars going to Hamas was only for gay stuff.
Condoms.
When I took a peek at the Debt Clock, the Doge dollars were racking up at a noticeably faster rate than the actual federal spending dollars…
Where’s the section for payments to politicians who don’t actually do any work for the People they swore an oath to serve?
And how come the number of government employees is not dropping? They show almost 25 million. We could cut that number in half.
Be careful what you wish for. Half the people in the country work for federal, state or local governments either direct employment including most first responders, indirect (contractors), or government adjacent (tax prep services, doctors/nurses, etc).
And they buy coffee at the locally owned brick and mortar coffee shop just like everyone else.
Using your number, that would be 12.5M unemployed Americans, most of whom aren’t social justice warriors undermining the country at USAID or CIA. At the height of the 2008 “Great Recession” there were only about 11M unemployed for comparison.
If you throw 12.5 million on the streets, figure another 8-10M people lose their jobs in government adjacent and local businesses due to the impacts of all those people losing their homes, not buying stuff, and generally falling out of the economy.
Pain is coming and not just for the government sector.
Remember, DOGE is a good idea, but DOGE absolutely does not care about people. Not even a little bit.
If you’re not efficient, you deserve to be fired.
Elon’s robots don’t give a shit about you.
I’m talking about the ones who swore an oath to serve the People but instead only serve themselves. And yes, I believe that most likely more than half of politicians are corrupt self-serving criminals.
Not talking about honest people who do the jobs we hired them to do. Only 6% of DC government employees actually show up to work. I’m tired of financing those corrupt bums.
When it to comes to feeding my family and providing for their needs, I dont give a shit about anyone or anything that doesn’t benefit me and mine!!! All my adult life, I’ve paid into the money sucking entity that is the fed gov and, I ain’t ashamed to say that I am glad to see it dismantled. There is going to be some hurt and financial losses but, nothing can be built on a weak or fractured foundation. We have someone, (Trump), that’s willing to lay NEW foundations and build something that benefits everyone, not just members of gov!!! We may have rough sea’s ahead but, there are calmer waters to come!
Amen to this post.
and? You can’t have it both ways. These people have literally sucked us dry forever. And now, you want me to feel sorry for them. What is the left’s very terms……..Learn to code.
or, mine coal
And they can always “Embrace the suck” the same as we were told.
Good for Elon’s robots. Bring it. If you aren’t productive, leave. Do something else for a living.
“Elon’s robots don’t give a shit about you.”
Yup!
Invite 10000 random people from a town of 130k to 150k.
You have them all in a venue that can hold that #.
Ask everyone who works directly fir a government entity (fed, state, county, city) to leave the room.
Then ask everyone who has a business or employment that could not operate without a government entity as their main client, to leave the room.
The remainder you separate by, has known direct government clients and those that have random client trade.
Number left is interesting…
I’ll break my own rule and put up a Twitter link, mainly to point out that this is exactly what I was predicting: Team Trump has access to all of USAID’s communications, not just the money trails, and will deploy it to target specific people:

I wonder if Katherine Long, the WSJ “reporter” was on the payroll while working at WSJ? She’s the one that doxxed the DOGE team member.
She was a State Dept. and USAID employee. It wouldn’t surprise me if she was still being funded with our tax dollars.
These people are vile.

I’m all for firing every damn one of them and, letting the unemployment dept sort them out!!!
Defunding USAID isn’t about reducing the deficit – at base it’s to shut down left-wing propaganda.
There is a searchable base created by an anonymous X user, @DataRepublican of federal government grants that hs helped uncover even more outrageous projects funded by USAID.
For example, a $30 million grant for an organization that funds women making ponchos in the Guatemalan highlands and bankrolls “community organizing” in Burkina Faso. Or a $20 million grant for a Sesame Street-style show in Iraq, a $2 million grant to promote pottery in Morocco, and $15 million for condoms and contraceptives in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.
The common theme in many of these grants is that they push LGBTQ, green, and woke ideologies under the pretext of fighting poverty and promoting democracy abroad. What began in 1961 as a way to promote stability and lure countries out of the Soviet orbit during the Cold War has over the past six decades transformed into an instrument of propaganda aimed at the foundations of western civilization. Everywhere you look in the USAID database, you see projects promoting LGBTQ ideology, mass immigration, multiculturalism, DEI, climate change-ism, and the like. You see programs that undermine the traditional family, that enable anti-free speech censorship, that strive to make the rest of the world just like urban liberal enclaves in the U.S.
Even more alarming, a significant portion of USAID funds appear to be nothing more than sinecures for connected establishment politicians in the U.S. The person who built the database, @DataRepublican, revealed that huge amounts of taxpayer dollars, through both the State Department and USAID (the former operating as a passthrough to the latter), go to NGOs stacked with establishment politicians from both parties — basically, the Washington uniparty.
Crowds of pro-USAID protesters, egged on by Democrat politicians, are gathering in Washington, D.C., to demand the arrest of Elon Musk and the shutdown of the Senate. Thousands of organizations in and around our nation’s capital are wholly or almost wholly funded through USAID grants in what amounts to a massive ongoing grift. For them, losing those funds means their NGOs will simply fold.
And fold they should. What began as a State Department agency to promote freedom and stability abroad during the Cold War has devolved, as perhaps it was inevitably going to, into a scam that steals from American taxpayers and uses their money to promote the dissolution of the American nation and the destruction of its founding ideals.
So it doesn’t matter how much or how little we might save by shutting down USAID — although every penny saved is worth it — what really matters is twofold: that we starve left-wing NGOs of the funds they use to promote toxic anti-American ideologies all over the world, and that the Trump administration demonstrates that it can indeed shut down executive branch programs and agencies that don’t align with White House priorities.
The fact that Democrats are howling about this is an admission, on their part, that they don’t think a Republican administration should be allowed to control the administrative bureaucracy. They think that belongs to them and their pet NGOs and activists, who have been using it to wage psychological warfare on the entire world for decades. That ends now, and if it means the women making ponchos in the Guatemalan highlands will have to find another source of funding, or the transgender comic books don’t ever get made, then so be it.
Corrupt judges (2 of them, with extremist records) also at work issuing LAWLESS blocks/bans on PDJT’s LEGAL executive orders; namely, U.S. District Judge George O’Toole Jr. on Thursday temporarily blocked Trump’s federal employee buyout program doing so on speculative grounds. O’Toole had also recently blocked the Trump Administration from sending a man cosplaying as a woman to a men’s prisons. a mentally ill man who identifies as female — Moe would not be transferred to a men’s prison.
The other ‘beauty of a beast”
– Clinton-era Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly issued a temporary restraining order Thursday that “blocked DOGE from obtaining access to certain Treasury Department payment records,” according to Fox News.
Kollar-Kotelly ruled that officials at the Treasury “will not provide access to any payment record or payment system of records maintained within the [Treasury] Bureau of Fiscal Service,” according to the ruling. Kollar-Kotelly previously approved a motion from the Justice Department that permits Elon Musk and Tom Krause, CEO of Cloud Software Group, to have read-only access to certain records, according to Fox News.
Kollar-Kotelly’s decision came after a lawsuit was filed arguing DOGE was given access to personal information despite lacking the authorization needed to view the documents.
Kollar-Kotelly previously sentenced eight pro-life activists to federal prison, including 77-year-old Paulette Harlow, who entered a D.C. abortion facility in 2020 and, according to the Department of Justice, “forcefully entered the clinic and set about blockading two clinic doors using their bodies, furniture, chains and ropes.” Harlow’s husband begged for leniency, noting Harlow’s declining health, to which Kollar-Kotelly said Harlow should “make every effort to remain alive, to do the things that you need to do to survive.”
Kollar-Kotelly also said that Trump’s January 6 pardons “will not change the truth of what happened on January 6, 2021,” according to ABC News. Kollar-Kotelly also repeated the debunked claim that officers died as a result of January 6.
“More than 140 officers were injured. Others tragically passed away as a result of the events of that day,” Kollar-Kotelly reportedly said. Not a single Capitol police officer was killed on January 6, 2021. One officer died of natural causes following two strokes, while four officers died by suicide within months of January 6 — including two officers who were not present for the actual protest.
Kollar-Kotelly also drew comparisons between the Civil War and January 6, according to CBS News.
Kollar-Kotelly also previously blocked a 2017 order from Trump that sought to ban men identifying as women and vice versa from serving in the military. Kollar-Kotelly ruled the plaintiffs “have established that they will be injured by these directives, due both to the inherent inequality they impose, and the risk of discharge and denial of accusation that they engender,” according to CNN.

You have a problem with this approach?
The left has deployed precisely this individually-targeted strategy against their perceived enemies for four decades.
The Money Trail
Samantha Power in the thick of this. USAID Funneled Nearly $800 Million To ‘Gender Transformative’ Global Censorship Group.
Now we have corrupt judges with extremist records issuing LAWLESS bans blocks on PDJT’s LEGAL executive orders

Awesome clip.
I trust they continue to do the same with all functionaries and the agencies that comport themselves thus.
Subversion and squawking simply focus the gaze of DOGE.
Make.it.so.
OMG saving money will produce so many liberal tears!
AND fill up the CA reservoirs
and empty politicians’ pockets.
The more money saved by DOGE is less money for the democrats to spend.
…and less for the uniparty to spend on election fraud. Bye bye, Mitch.
How can we verify what DOGE is claiming? I know, I know, it’s a rhetorical question.
The government spending is so out of control that there is no way to fix it without somebody or some people taking a hit. That’s the way it is and if we want to fix our country then this is what has to happen. It surely beats a kinetic Second American Revolution where everything is destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up.
Maybe it is just me,, but using my tax dollars to fund a DEI musical is ANY country is utter waste.
There’s gazillions of dollars in Hollywood. That useless overpaid crowd could donate $$$$$ if they choose to piss it away on nonsense such as this. Most of them could easily live with one less Gucci bag stored in one of their mansions around the world.
A play is entertainment and does not feed or provide shelter to anyone. This is zero “Aid” … just dollars that were robbed and wasted from American taxpayers.
Samantha Powers should reimburse all tax payers.
I wanted to share what I feel is an awesome piece regarding Doge.

Too bad it’s fantasy. And a distraction tool for use on the entire US populace.
Wow. I agree that this is an “awesome” piece regarding DOGE. Written in crayon so that all an understand the planning and the implementation of what we are witnessing. Thank you for posting this!
Great article!! Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to send this to my lib siblings.
I saw that yesterday and thought that it was almost thrilling to read. That author has a way with words and makes it seem like you are right there. Great article and so awesome that such young men are a part of the investigating team.
<laughs> 71 billion dollars in DOGE efficiency savings. Not bad, a few more months of this and we’ll be into real money. <tribute to the late Senator Dirksen, often attributed as saying something similar. 😉 .
