Antonio Gracias: DOGE Happened Just in Time to Stop America from Turning into a Kleptocracy

"When (DOGE) started, I thought we had a democracy, but it turned into a bureaucracy."

"What I'm afraid of now, is we have a bureaucracy that is about to turn into a kleptocracy."

@AntonioGracias on E214:

"It's sort of extraordinary what's happening."

@elonmusk said this publicly, right? Fraud, waste, and abuse, he thinks kind of 10% of the budget is probably fraud."

"I think it might be low, actually. So you're talking about $650B, $1T in waste. I think that's probably about right."

"But what's really serious about it, @Jason, for me and what scared me, and I'm not there full-time. You know, I'm in and out a little bit and trying to help where I can, but I'm not there full-time."

"When this started, I thought we had a democracy, but it turned into a bureaucracy."

"What I'm afraid of now. is we have a bureaucracy that is about to turn into a kleptocracy."

"I mean, a Latin American-style kleptocracy, okay?"

"The stuff you're talking about, that is pure fraud."

"And we're making some jokes out of it, the DEI musical."

"But if you go into the data that's coming out of USAID, what you find is there's a lot of political contributions going on there."

"I mean, that is pure corruption. That's like a Latin American-style autocracy. And we cannot let it go there."

"I think (@DOGE) happened just in the nick of time. 80+ people there, all patriots, going full time to make this happen."

"So I'm just so grateful."

🚨DAVID SACKS: "We knew that the US Government runs a $2T deficit every year, we're in debt almost $40T, and every time someone tries to cut something in Washington the whole city screams bloody murder. The question is why? Now we know -- everyone was getting paid!

New York Times? Getting paid ✅

Politico? Getting paid ✅

Bill Kristol? Getting paid ✅

Ukraine? Getting paid ✅

Viktor Orbán's political opposition? Getting paid ✅

Left wing political opposition in Poland? Getting paid ✅

BBC? Getting paid ✅

Every left wing organization int he world seems to be getting paid by this slush fund at USAID which disburses about $50B a year, which is about $1B a week. That's a lot of money.

The left tries to portray itself as a movement of the people, and that its grassroots. This is the exact opposite, this is astroturfed. This is money coming from the top down out of Washington to fund all these groups that are not even in the United States.

It makes you wonder, what is the real level of support for all these left wing policies all over the world?"
