In a jaw-dropping interview that’s sending shockwaves through Washington’s bloated bureaucracy, Elon Musk—yes, that Elon Musk—is pulling back the curtain on what’s really happening inside the federal government. And it’s not pretty.
Speaking candidly to The Daily Caller on May 1, Musk detailed the early efforts of the newly created DOGE task force (that’s the “Department of Government Efficiency,” for those keeping score at home), which was launched as part of President Donald Trump’s second-term mission to gut fraud, waste, and corruption from the federal swamp.
From day one, Musk said, it’s been a crash course in unraveling decades of entrenched dysfunction. “It’s an intense period,” he explained. “When I got started in January, I was just trying to figure out what’s going on.” Think of it as Musk doing what he does best—digging into complex systems and asking questions the Left doesn’t want answered.
But this isn’t just about tinkering with spreadsheets.
Musk revealed that DOGE is now targeting the mother of all sacred cows: the Federal Reserve.
That’s right—the same opaque institution that prints trillions, manipulates interest rates, and plays puppet master with our economy might finally be held accountable. Musk didn’t mince words, questioning how the Fed could possibly justify “two and a half billion dollars on their design”—a cryptic expense that he rightly called “an eyebrow raiser.”
Translation: The days of hiding behind bureaucratic fog are over.
According to Musk, DOGE has already uncovered what he believes are hundreds of thousands of fraud cases throughout the federal government. Rather than casting a wide net, the team is laser-focused on the “most clear-cut” abuses of taxpayer money. Once identified, the evidence is handed off to the Department of Justice for prosecution—a process Musk says takes several weeks.
Even more disturbing is his revelation that full-blown “fraud rings” are operating within the federal government. “It’s kind of like the mafia,” Musk said, comparing these corruption networks to organized crime. The strategy? Flip low-level players with plea deals and climb the ladder to the top. Sounds familiar to anyone who’s watched the Left’s playbook—but this time, it’s being used to hold *them* accountable.
Musk is optimistic about DOGE’s future, not because it’s easy, but because it’s *necessary*. “These are people who could get high-paying jobs in the private sector,” he noted, “but they’ve come here to serve the country.”
Of course, none of this sits well with entrenched Deep State actors and their allies in legacy media. The same folks who scream about “democracy” every time Trump breathes are now silent as Musk exposes fraud in their pet institutions. But for America First patriots, this is exactly the kind of no-nonsense accountability the country has been starving for.
With Musk leading DOGE and Trump back in charge, the days of unchecked federal grift may finally be numbered. And if the Federal Reserve thought it was immune from scrutiny, it might be time to rethink that assumption.
