How Much Money Has Doge Found? The 25-Day Government Massacre

So, you’ve heard about Elon Musk and his little sidekick, Doge, turning Washington upside down, right? Well, buckle up because things have gotten wild.

If you thought the government was bad at spending money before, wait until you hear about the scandal uncovered over the past 25 days. Thanks to Trump’s executive order, Musk and his team (with Doge leading the charge, of course) have been on a mission to find out exactly where all that taxpayer money has been going. 

So what really did they find?

The Audit That Started It All

It all began on January 20, 2025. That’s when Trump signed an executive order that gave Musk the green light to poke around in Washington’s finances. And when Musk moved into the Eisenhower Building, you just knew something big was coming.

Doge wasted no time. 

The first thing on the agenda? Cracking open the Treasury Department’s Payment Systems and freezing funds left and right. That’s when the Doge audit uncovered some seriously sketchy spending.

And guess what? The Pentagon was the first to feel the heat.

The Pentagon Audit: Billions of Dollars... Missing?

You’d think the Pentagon audit would be straightforward, right? Just check the books, match the numbers, and see where the money went.

Yeah, no. That’s not how things work in Washington.

Turns out, the Pentagon had “misplaced” billions of dollars. A casual $32.5 billion was frozen from USAID alone, and that was just the start.

Then came the bombshell:

• $697 million supposedly went to Afghanistan, but no one could confirm where the money actually ended up.

• $136 million was allocated for schools in Pakistan—schools that, as it turns out, don’t exist.

• $60 million was sent for “women’s education” in Taliban-controlled areas 

At this point, you had to wonder—what else was hiding in the government’s books?

Government Downsizes—And It’s Brutal

With so much government waste, something had to give. So, in classic Musk fashion, they didn’t just fire people—they fired thousands.

• 77,000 government employees took early retirement.

• Mass layoffs happened over Zoom.

• Entire departments were wiped out overnight.

And the agencies hit the hardest? Let’s talk about those.

USAID—Gone in an Instant

Remember how USAID lost $32.5 billion? Yeah, Doge wasn’t having it. The entire agency got its funding frozen, leaving bureaucrats scrambling.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)

This one was fun. The CFPB was basically put on ice. Their financial investigators? Fired. Their mission? “On hold indefinitely.”

General Services Administration (GSA)—Cut in Half

GSA’s budget went from $64 billion to $32 billion overnight. That meant mass layoffs, regional offices shutting down, and a whole lot of confused employees.

Other Agencies That Took a Hit

• The EPA saw 104 diversity contracts cut overnight.

• The Department of Education lost funding for its major programs.

• The Climate Justice Alliance? They lost a cool $50 million in funding.

At this point, it was clear: Musk and Doge were out for blood.

Where Did It All Go?

Now, if you’re like me, you’re probably wondering: “Okay, so if all this money was being spent, what was it actually used for?”

Glad you asked.

Here are some of the wildest things they found:

• $20 million went to create a version of Sesame Street for Iraq.

• $2 billion just... disappeared from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

• $27 million was spent on “reintegration gift bags”.

Oh, and let’s not forget about the insane spending overseas:

• $50 million was allocated to “boost tourism” in Tunisia.

• $50,000 went to fund a transgender opera in Colombia.

• $32,000 was spent on a transgender comic book in Peru.

I don’t know about you, but I can think of a few better ways to use taxpayer money.

What This Means for You

By now, you’re probably thinking, “Okay, this is insane, but what does it mean for me?”

Well, for starters, it means Washington has been bleeding money for decades—and you’ve been footing the bill.

But here’s where it gets interesting: with the government downsizing, cutting waste, and uncovering hidden funds, huge opportunities are opening up—especially in real estate investing.

Think about it:

• As government agencies downsize, more commercial properties are hitting the market.

• Federal budget cuts mean more opportunities for private businesses to step in.

• And if you’re looking to experience financial freedom, there’s never been a better time to jump into real estate opportunities.

Speaking of real estate opportunities, here's something interesting: while the government was losing track of billions, smart investors were making moves in real estate.

How Much Money Has Doge Found?

So, after 25 days, how much did Doge actually uncover?

The exact number isn’t clear yet, but we’re talking billions of dollars in secret government programs, shady foreign aid deals, and straight-up missing funds. And with Musk leading the charge, this is just the beginning.

One thing’s for sure: Washington is in full meltdown mode, and for the first time in a long time, someone is actually holding them accountable.

And for you? This might just be the best time to take control of your own financial future. Because if Washington has taught us anything, it’s that no one’s going to look out for your money better than you.
