Elon Musk’s DOGE uncovered another huge scandal involving a former ICE employee-turned Biden official.
According to DOGE, the HHS has been paying an empty migrant facility in Pecos, Texas, $18 million a month since March 2024.
The shady deal was brokered by a former ICE employee-turned Biden transition team member.
DOGE said the sketchy contract was terminated, saving taxpayers more than $251 million per year.
Per DOGE:
A former ICE employee and Biden transition team member joined Family Endeavors in early 2021 and helped secure a sole-source HHS contract for overflow housing from licensed care facilities.

Superlawyer Harmeet Dhillon, who has served as Donald Trump’s attorney in the past and is his nominee to be Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the Justice Department, testified in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday for her confirmation hearing and promised to fight for women and girls and the defenseless while keeping the department free from politicization. [Tweet, video]
She said Donald Trump knows what it’s like to be attacked by an out-of-control DOJ:
I thanked President Trump for nominating me to this important position. He knows all too well how the Department of Justice may be weaponized for the wrong ends,

Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins issued a directive on Tuesday that tightens restrictions on access to food stamps, limiting such benefits exclusively to American citizens and legal immigrants.
It is another common sense move being implemented by the new administration to dissuade illegals from attempting to game the system.
“The days in which taxpayer dollars are used to subsidize illegal immigration are over,” Secretary Rollins said in a press release. “Today's directive affirms that the U.S. Department of Agriculture will follow the law—full stop."
The move directs the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) within the Agriculture Department

The real minimum wage is and always will be the same: Zero. Even the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), the union that represents, among other things, food service workers, is being forced to admit the truth of this economic principle. A study commissioned by the SEIU organization shows that California's new $20/hour minimum wage for fast-food workers raised food prices, and may have cost over 10,000 jobs.
Last week the Globe reported on a new study by the Berkeley Research Group admitting that California’s $20 minimum wage for fast food workers has led to job losses, higher food prices, and increased automation in the industry.

With Uncle Sam tightening his belt, federal department audits and overhauls taking place, and pink slips being handed out, organizations that are worried they are next to lose federal funding/support are lining up on Capitol Hill and/or burning up the phone lines in hopes of persuading lawmakers to fight on their behalf.
Among them is PBS, which has long been the target of Republican ire and attempts at defunding due to the blatantly biased nature of their programming, which is supposed to be neutral but more often than not comes across as a mouthpiece for Democrat agenda items and talking points.

President Donald Trump will hold his first Cabinet meeting in his second term Wednesday morning, with all members present in addition to Department of Government Efficiency special government employee Elon Musk.
During a press briefing at the White House Tuesday, much was made of Musk's participation given he isn't a Cabinet member.
"Is Elon Musk going to attend the president's first Cabinet meeting tomorrow?" a reporter asked.
"He is, as a matter of fact. I spoke to the president about that before coming down here as well. And Elon, considering he is working alongside the president and our Cabinet secretaries,

Socialism is popular!
A Pew study reports that more than a third of American adults view it positively.
How is this possible?
Little has brought more misery -- first in the Soviet Union, then in China, Cuba, Nicaragua, now Venezuela ...
One reason young people support socialism is because their social media feeds show videos made by popular but economically illiterate people.
TikTok star Madeline Pendleton has 1.6 million subscribers. My new video shows her telling them: "Socialism is working better than capitalism 93% of the time!"
Where does she get 93%?
From a study published in 1986 by self-described Marxists in the Journal of Health Services.
The authors conveniently ignore the United States

It isn't the ending the world hoped for. It isn't the ending Israel hoped for. It certainly isn't the ending Yarden Bibas hoped for, but baby Kfir, his big brother, Ariel, and their mom, Shiri, are finally home and were laid to rest on Wednesday morning.
Thousands of Israeli mourners lined the streets, waving flags and showing their love and support for the family as a procession of vans carried their abused bodies to their final resting place. Many people also wore orange, a color that the country has used to symbolize the family because of the young boys' fiery orange-red hair.

Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT), an ethics watchdog, is asking for an investigation into a Democrat senator.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-Rhode Island, is being accused of violating ethics rules after reportedly backing legislation that helped enrich his own wife. FACT is asking the Senate Select Committee on Ethics to look into whether Sandra Whitehouse’s environmental organization financially benefitted from her husband’s political positions, and “whether he violated the Senate ethics rules on conflicts of interest.”
Mrs. Whitehouse has worked for consulting firm Ocean Wonks LLC as the president since 2017, prior to which she was a Senior Policy Adviser at Ocean Conservancy starting in 2008.

Republican Congressman Andy Ogles (TN) said he is drafting articles of impeachment against Amir Ali, a Biden appointee who just strong-armed the Trump Administration and ordered them to pay foreign contracts by 11:59 pm on Wednesday.
“I’m drafting articles of impeachment for U.S. District Judge Amir H. Ali. Yet another PARTISAN ACTIVIST attempting to weaponize his position to block President Trump from cutting wasteful foreign funding,” Congressman Ogles said.
“Accountability is key,” Rep. Ogles said.

Roberta Flack started out as a little girl with big dreams and tremendous talent, whose life took unexpected turns. Those turns led to a prolific and storied music career, and whether you are a Baby Boomer, Gen X, or a Millennial, her songwriting and ballads have been a pivotal part of the soundtrack of our lives.
An ALS diagnosis later in life stilled Flack's voice, and the memory of her dulcet tones is all that is left in the silence. On Monday, Roberta Flack died at the age of 88. [Tweet]
“The world has lost a musical great with the passing of the timeless Roberta Flack.

President Donald Trump has called on the company behind the Keystone XL pipeline to return to America and finish the project. And he's promising a fast-track process to get the job done.
On his first day in office, former President Joe Biden signed a series of executive orders that included revoking “permits signed over the past 4 years that do not serve the U.S. national interest, including revoking the Presidential permit granted to the Keystone XL pipeline.”
Trump, who made a return to American energy independence a cornerstone of his presidential campaign, took to Truth Social
