GAI President Peter Schweizer and his organization have long stressed that the real value of what Elon Musk and his DOGE group have been doing is to expose the “business model of corruption” in Washington, DC. The reductions in spending and federal workforce bloat are important, but exposing and stopping the use of taxpayer monies to prop up partisan cronies and supporters of the Biden administration is the real benefit. GAI has been researching and exposing similar frauds and waste for years.
Musk himself replied to a tweet sent by Schweizer recently that underscored this truth:
Schweizer later elaborated on this theme on Fox News’s nighttime program with host Trace Gallagher.
Schweizer pointed out that government assessments have shown that in the case of relief for earthquake-ravaged Haiti, half the money awarded for relief efforts went to companies based in the Washington, DC area. Funding for Ukraine to help upgrade its oil and gas production during the Obama administration went to a company (Burisma) that put Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter on its board of directors.
