Amazing…Elon Musk Posted, “ The

team discovered, among other things, that payment approval officers at Treasury were instructed always to approve payments, even to known fraudulent or terrorist groups.
They literally never denied a payment in their entire career.
Not even once.

Fraudlent groups? I say most likely buckets funded back to someone in the legislative branch, and military industrial complex, CIA.
You don't actually think they spend 20,000 dollars on a hammer, 30,000 dollars on a toilet seat do you?

I going to give you a bit of push back on this.
When I was in the military, we had to go pick up some chairs ordered on our system from office depot.
Each chair was $500 USD.
However, the same chair was literally on the show room 2 for $200.
Verified that the show room chair matched the milspec of the chairs we bought for the ship.
Tried to convince the RPO to just buy the chairs outright using the division credit card and was told we either use the money in the budget or lose the money in the budget 😒
The ole "Use it or Lose it" budget mentality.
I used to get a call from our state grants administrator saying she'd had $$ returned to the state and she needed to spend it in the next week or "lose" it. Wanted to know if I had any projects that met the grant criteria that I could spend it quickly on. I got a lot of $$ that way. The deal was, not only did they lose that money if they returned it to the general "pot", the state also cut their NEXT year's budget request by that amount. It was a stupid process. I'm retired now, so I'm not sure if they've cleaned it up yet or not...
