How much Doge has saved you?

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Here's a hint, not really anymore than this time a
week ago. You know that this week has all been
about Musk saying goodbye at Doge. And it looks like,
I mean, based on what hasn't changed, that may very
well be the case. Most of Doche's work, at least
as far as must concern is concerned. It's done now.

(00:41):
Muskas said that he is going to still work on
does stuff a day or two week, but he'll do
it remotely. He's leaving the White House. Trump he had
this to say at his one hundred day rally in
Michigan this week on day one.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
I created that right right right now, very successful Department
of Government Efficiency headed by Elon. That was a big
thing doing that. I mean, the numbers are really incredible.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
They are actually if you think about it. First of all,
whatever happens with federal government spending, it only ever goes
in one direction, right, they only spend more money that
we don't have. Okay, Well, so saving anything of significance
in the federal government is not exactly an easy thing
to do. It's rare. And so when you take a
look at the one hundred and sixty billion dollars that

(01:32):
has been saved, that is a very meaningful number. Now,
the reason that it is viewed as a disappointment by
many is that, look, Elon was talking about we do
two trillion in all these things, and that much probably
should be done. Maybe with Congress getting on board here,
they actually will get that done. But look, he saved

(01:54):
one hundred and sixty billion dollars across twenty two impacted
federal government agencies, initiatives that have been cut eighteen thousand,
seven hundred and ninety six and the brass tacks to
you savings of nine hundred and ninety three dollars and
seventy nine cents. So we'll see, we'll see the actual
office itself what gets to exist until July fourth of
next year. And you do have the Congressional Caucus that's

(02:15):
talking about picking up the ball and running with it
from here, So that would be a good thing to
see
