DOGE: Elon’s team has found approximately $4.7 Trillion in untraceable federal taxpayer funds. The reason they are untraceable is that the Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) fields (an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item on those payments were left blank. As of Saturday, the TAS must be completed before a payment can go out. Can you imagine how your stock holders and/or IRS auditors would react if a massive amount of your out-flow was left blank or marked “miscellaneous”?

Jordan Belfort, entrepreneur and the original “Wolf of Wall Street,” warned that losing track of money does not happen “by accident.” He believes we will find out that there should not have been “any deficit at all,” and that the wastefulness goes “much deeper,” highlighting how they have yet to look at the Pentagon and have just started looking into the IRS. “You follow the money. You see where it goes,” Belfort said.

OUIJA BOARD: [16:54] – This “historian’s” mocking of all religious and spiritual beliefs is very offensive. Personally, I think occult “tools” are like marijuana. For some, they’re party toys. For others, they are gateways to hell. I’m glad to have been raised Catholic and learned early not to mess with them.

“The Ouija board is far from harmless, as it is a form of divination (seeking information from supernatural sources). The fact of the matter is, the Ouija board really does work, and the only “spirits” that will be contacted through it are evil ones.” – Catholic Answers

BOOTY JUDGE: Biden’s Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg once claimed that roads are racist. Now he’s got aspirations for higher office and has read the Trump writing on the wall. As one of the few Democrats who are not doubling down on crazy, he recently said, “What do we mean when we talk about diversity? Is it caring for people’s different experiences and making sure no one is mistreated because of them, which I will always fight for? Or is it making people sit through a training that looks like something out of Portlandia, which I have also experienced. It is how it is how Trump Republicans are made.

WISCONSIN: Gov. Tony Evers (D) says he supports a Democrat Senate bill that would replace the word “mother” with the word “inseminated person” and replace the word “husband” with the word “spouse.” “Inseminated” is how farmers talk about dairy cows.

TRANS TERROR CULT: On Inauguration Day, a U.S. Border Patrol Officer Agent (David Maland) and a German trans man (Felix “Ophelia” Bauckholt) died during a shoot-out near the Vermont-Canada border. Bauckholt, who had initiated the deadly incident, was accompanied by a Seattle trans woman (Teresa “Milo” Consuelo Youngblut), who was injured, but survived and has been charged.

Both Bauckholt and Youngblut appear to have been followers of trans man Jack (Ziz) Lasota, leader of a violent trans cult known as the Zizzians. The group appears to have also perpetrated the murders of an elderly PA couple in January 2023 and an elderly CA man on Jan. 17, 2025.

On Monday, “Ziz” (now 34) and one of his lieutenants, another trans man who goes by “Michelle” Zajko (33) were arrested in Maryland and charged with trespassing, obstructing and hindering, and possession of a handgun in the vehicle.

DOGE: Yesterday, Sen. Fetterman tweeted out a Politico article that starts – “‘Five alarm warning’: Possible DOGE access to private taxpayer data sparks outcry. The Elon Musk-run effort wants to study a system that includes tax returns, Social Security numbers and other information.”

Fetterman’s comment – “I want to save billions of your money and make our government more efficient. Rummaging through your personal shit is *not* that. A party of chaos loses—always.”

I won’t dwell on the millions Politico got for $10,000/year government subscriptions. FYI: You can buy one for $200/year or $350/2 years at the link below. Neither will I dwell on the self-projection inherent in Fetterman’s final statement, though I will laugh. A lot.

What I will share is what Elon Musk responded. “Bruh, if I wanted to rummage through random personal shit, I could have done that at PAYPAL. Hello??? Having tens of millions of people marked in Social Security as “ALIVE” when they are definitely dead is a HUGE problem. Obviously. Some of these people would have been alive before America existed as a country. Think about that for a second … “

The oldest American on record was Sarah Knauss who died on December 30, 1999, at the age of 119 years and 97 days. According to Musk, the government has 12+ million Americans older than that listed as “alive.” Best comment: “Damn George Washington still drawing Social Security.”

MEDIA: The AP keeps deadnaming the Gulf of America, so Trump rescinded its privilege to join press gaggles inside the Oval Office and on Air Force One. The AP still has its office space at the White House and its seat in the Brady Press Room.

TDS: CLICK https://x.com/PatrickJA09/status/1890246929830776991 [1:54] to hear the unhinged verbal assault a teacher laid on a student during a class at Monsignor Farrell High School in Staten Island, New York. On Feb. 6, 2025, the day after the incident, the teacher was placed on leave. After the video went viral, the school accepted the teacher’s resignation.

N.b., the student put a Superman filter over his face. Some on X have criticized it, but I think if I had recorded and posted that, I would have covered my true face as well.

We gave Trump a mandate to cut the bloated government and get unsustainable spending under control. In its first month, DOGE et al. saved We, the American Taxpayers $51 Billion dollars. Below are highlights from last week, which – FULL TRANSPARENCY – are posted as they happen at the DOGE X site.

Friday, February 7 – The government terminated 199 wasteful contracts for a savings of ~$250 million. Our money is no longer going to “climate change mitigation adaption and resilience coordinator” for Sri Lankan forest service or a workshop for “Intercultural communication diversity dialogue circle communicating across differences.”

Monday, February 10 – The Department of Agriculture terminated 18 contracts for a total of ~$9 million. These included money allocated for “Central American gender assessment consultant services”, “Brazil forest and gender consultant services”, and the “Women in forest carbon initiative mentorship program.”

Monday, February 10 – The Department of Education terminated 29 DEI training grants totaling $101 million. One sought to train teachers to “help students understand / interrogate the complex histories involved in oppression, and help students recognize areas of privilege and power on an individual and collective basis.” Education terminated another 89 contracts worth $881 million. Among them were $4.6 million to coordinate Zoom and in-person meetings, $3.0 million contract to write a report that showed that prior reports were not utilized by schools, and $1.5 million to “observe mailing and clerical operations” at a mail center,

Wednesday, February 12 – The Department of Homeland Security recovered the full payment that FEMA deep state activists illegally sent to NYC to house illegals in hotels. One of these was the Roosevelt Hotel, which has served as a Tren de Aragua base of operations; Laken Riley’s killer stayed there. The Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan is owned by the government of Pakistan. Meanwhile, American hurricane victims are sleeping in tents.

Wednesday, February 12 – The DOGE team canceled a $25,000 award entitled “Empowering LGBTQIA+ Refugees in Greece.”

Wednesday, February 12 – Fifty-eight more cancellations with savings of more than $150 million in categories including Media, DEI, and Consulting. They included $405,000 at DHS for “resilience, energy, and sustainability management program support services” and ~$4 million at DoT for “DEIA program and project management support services.”

Wednesday, February 12 – The EPA canceled three DEI contracts, saving American taxpayers $45 million. The EPA also announced it would not be renewing Politico subscriptions, saving us another $458,919 per year.

Thursday, February 13 – The EPA canceled a $50 million Biden-era environmental justice grant to the Climate Justice Alliance, which believes “climate justice travels through a Free Palestine.”

Thursday, February 13 – Elon’s genius posse saved ~$115 million by canceling 167 contracts, including $2.23 million for “equity assessments of existing program policies.”

Friday, February 14 – DOGE located $1.9 billion of misplaced HUD moneys that were no longer needed.

Friday, February 14 – Lee Zeldin at EPA canceled 9 more wasteful DEI and Environmental Justice contracts, saving American taxpayers another ~$60 million. Zeldin says, “I’m just warming up! I have ZERO tolerance for even a penny of your hard-earned tax dollars to be wasted or abused.”

Friday, February 14 – In the last 48 hours, the Department of Education terminated 70 DEI training grants totaling $373 million. One was to train teachers to “engage in ongoing learning and self-reflection to confront their own biases and racism, and develop asset-based anti-racist mindsets.” In addition, the departments of education in all 50 states were sent a letter notifying them they have 14 days to remove all DEI programming in all public schools or face a loss of federal funding.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, We pray today for our loved ones who do not love You. Please open their minds and hearts to Your beauty, Your truth, and Your healing love. And, help us to be good to them. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

BUYOUT: About 75,000 federal workers, slightly less than four percent of the 2.3 million-person federal civil service workforce, accepted the Trump administration’s retirement buyout offer before it expired, allowing them to receive full pay and benefits until Sept. 30 while being exempt from daily attendance rules and layoffs. Since 2000, the average daily retirement total was 274. On average, the buyout offer reaped 6,250 employees each day while it was offered.

DOGE: Fourteen states — Arizona, Michigan, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington — have sued, asking the court to bar Musk and his DOGE team from access data systems or make changes to the disbursement of public funds, government contracts, regulations or personnel.

DOGE: Roses are red, violets are blue. DOGE has made $3.4 billion in waste bid adieu. – The latest include a $45 million DEI scholarship in Myanmar (formerly Burma) and an $8.2 million USDA contract for “environmental compliance services for the implementation of pilot projects developed under the partnership for climate smart commodities.” The White House has also canceled $500,000 in subscriptions to Politico.

DOWNSIZING: Now that the buyout offer has terminated, the Trump administration has started sending pink slips to unnecessary members of the federal workforce. Among those who should be kicking themselves for passing on the generous buyout severance package are those whose didn’t bother to return to work after the pandemic and whose jobs were deemed nonessential during the last government shutdown. This would include more than half of the IRS workforce. Some of these latter may have a future in border security, however, as Tom Homan reportedly believes their skills could be used to hunt down illegals.

EU: Vice President J.D. Vance gave Europe a well deserved scolding in a very meaty speech. [19:40] – The tragedy he refers to occurred the day before his speech when an Afghani Islamic extremist deliberately drove his car into a crowd, injuring at least 28 people, including children, and some critically. The perp is a 24-year-old man who BBC described as a migrant seeking asylum from the Islamic extremist government in his native land. Wait, wut? He is also allegedly known to police for previous offenses, which begs the question a second time. Why he was still in Germany?

LOUISIANA: The state’s Surgeon General Ralph Abraham had ordered his staff to stop engaging in media campaigns and community health fairs to encourage vaccinations. The state will still stock and provide vaccines, but will now put emphasis on encouraging citizens to learn about the risks and benefits of various vaccines before deciding.

MEDIA: In 2022, Trump filed a lawsuit again the Pulitzer Prize panel’s award to the New York Times and the Washington Post for pushing the false “Russian collusion” narrative. The Pulitzer Prize Board filed a motion to have the lawsuit dismissed. On Wednesday, appellate court in Florida unanimously denied the motion. In his written concurrence, Judge Ed Artau affirmed that the trial court had jurisdiction over the defendants and concluded that the issues in the lawsuit are actionable.
