Newsmax // Saturday Agenda
Eric Eggers + Seamus Bruner
Eric Eggers, VP at GAI, and Seamus Bruner, Director of Research at GAI, joined Rob Astorino on Newsmax (Mar. 8, 2025) to discuss Elon Musk’s DOGE revolutionary budget cutting, slashing $105 billion in taxpayer waste in just over a month. Eggers hails it an “unmitigated success,” spotlighting DC’s wealth hoard—six of the richest counties surround it.
Bruner exposes bizarre spending including $8 million on transgender mice and $1 million on transgender menstrual studies and pushed for deeper cuts. He and Eggers commented on plans to eliminate 83,000 positions at the Veterans administration and halve the headcount at the Internal Revenue Service, despite pushback from Democrats and and activist judges. Trump’s new scalpel approach empowers cabinet heads to meet DOGE biweekly, jointly targeting fraud and bloat.
