Trump Backs Musk Email Demand to Federal Employees
...president said that Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency has found “hundreds of billions of dollars in fraud” as he suggested that federal paychecks are going to nonexistent employees. He did not present evidence for his claims.
[He sees fraud where it doesn't exist, like in elections and here. He sees it because he wants to see it and his supporters believe it's there. He makes up numbers because they "sound good" and his supporters will believe him. NPR did an examination that showed that the savings in the number of programs already reduced was 10 cents on the dollar to what DOGE claimed.]
