Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has announced that it gave a thumb's-down
on almost a billion U.S. tax dollars from funding ridiculous overseas programs, including $10 million to “voluntary medical male circumcisions” in Mozambique.
Ouch.
In a Saturday post to X, DOGE announced a total of $729 million in savings, listing multiple crazy initiatives being funded by U.S. taxpayers with zero knowledge of where the money was going. Democrats don't seem to think this is good for the country and they minimize the money saved without considering that the savings are just for one year and will continue over time.
US taxpayer dollars were going to be spent on the following items, all which have been cancelled:

$10M for "Mozambique voluntary medical male circumcision"$9.7M for UC Berkeley to develop "a cohort of Cambodian youth with enterprise driven skills"
$2.3M for "strengthening independent voices in Cambodia"
$32M to the Prague Civil Society Center
$40M for "gender equality and women empowerment hub"
$14M for "improving public procurement" in Serbia
$486M to the “Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening,” including $22M for "inclusive and participatory political process" in Moldova and $21M for voter turnout in India
$29M to "strengthening political landscape in Bangladesh"
$20M for "fiscal federalism" in Nepal- $19M for "biodiversity conversation" in Nepal
$1.5M for "voter confidence" in Liberia
$14M for "social cohesion" in Mali
$2.5M for "inclusive democracies in Southern Africa"
$47M for "improving learning outcomes in Asia"
$2M to develop "sustainable recycling models" to "increase socio-economic cohesion among marginalized communities of Kosovo Roma, Ashkali, and Egypt"
This is the kind of stuff that freaks out the left, but more and more people are waking up and see this oversight as a good thing for the country.
Last month, GOP lawmakers demanded former alleged President Joe Biden's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) be investigated for allegedly using taxpayer money to fund at least 21 abortions in Mozambique through PEPFAR (the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief), Breitbart News reported.
The nonsense goes on and on--it's time to investigate, indict those who are corrupt, and eradicate the wasteful programs the taxpayers didn't approve of or even know about.
