Republican on Wednesday vowed to deal with the “stunning” US national debt, as the MPs started work on the plan of President Donald Trump for the federal government’s most radical decline in the decades.
The government’s efficiency will be the legislative branch of Tech billionaire Elon Musk’s efforts as Trump’s right -handed person, which will reduce the $ 1 trillion in useless expenses.
Its first hearing – “The war on waste: to exclude improper payments and fraud crisis” – was determined to testify from the head of a former FBI agent and a welfare fraud watchdog.
Chair Marjori Taylor Green said in his initial statement, “This committee will be laser-centered to bring full transparency for ruin, fraud and abuse within the federal government, and presented a plan to fix the tremendous problems we exposed by us Will do. “
“We, as a country, are $ 36 trillions in debt. It is such a stunning amount. It is also understandable how we as a country, we found ourselves here, as a country.”
The hearing was held with government employees staging demonstrations against the deep staffing cuts ordered by the Department of Musk and their Government Efficiency Department (DOGE).
Critics say that the world’s richest man has a huge struggle for interests as a prominent government contractor, although Trump claims that his “proficiency Czar” has already exposed tens of billions of dollars of fraud.
Republican has supported a large -scale Dogi agenda, although funding cuts in national health institutions have been found with mild dissatisfaction.
A major voice over the party’s difficult right with the history of Bigotted Comments, Green has been brought from the fringe to the center of Republican politics as Trump has increased the influence.
‘Maximum transparent’
Georgia’s lawmakers, who were stopped from serving in committees in their first two years in the office, posted before the hearing that “God is washing bad things and our country has started recovering.”
Democrats were initially open to the concept of Dogi, but have become sour over their efforts to destroy federal agencies, which they say that they are immersed in privacy.
“All our tasks are maximum transparent,” Musk told reporters at the White House on Tuesday, by an executive order by Trump, a veto on the government’s work and firing in a new way.
“I do not know the case where an organization has been more transparent than the Dogi organization.”
Trump and Musk are facing several legal challenges, as they try to raise emergency orders, blocking the disintegration of federal agencies, granting and firing government sentiments.
The White House on Tuesday lost an appeal in Boston, in which the decision to block Trump’s freeze in federal grant and loan was upheld.
On the same day, Trump fired a Inspector General of USAID, when he filed a report when he filed a report, warning that foreign aid freeze could leave the freeze humanitarian agency at the risk of misuse of money.
With all the firing of inspectors, this step looks illegal on its face as the Congress should be given a 30 -day notice.
Meanwhile, the Homeland Security Department fired the Chief Financial Officer of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and three other FEMA employees to approve the payment for migrant housing in the hotel.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is in charge of a budget of about 900 billion dollars, told Exios that he planned to welcome Musk and “The deep eye off -dog”, who “to check for its expenses” very soon “.
