there’s already a thread about this so i’m not going to do the whole thing again, go read it. But for posterity: #1 It it’s not treasury’s role to “deny” payments instructed by Congress. That would be wildly unconstitutional #2 If there are payments being made not authorized by Congress then yes that’s a big deal and fair game, but you need to also have a lot more than Elon’s word. #3 There is a massive conflict of interest to have an industrialists with many business interests having access to sensitive payment systems and it’s not at all clear he has (or could get due to his admitted drug abuse) clearance to view things such as payments to witness protection program participants.
So your take in this, auto taxpayer money payments from the Treasury, including to terrorist groups…
Is that Elon is the problem.

States will have holds on payments over certain amounts and will have traps on the system for things like multiple refunds to the same address in the same period.
Sounds like the Feds don’t even bother with that.

think the government waste argument is cover for Elon to gain a lot of privileged information he can use against competitors. That’s crony capitalism which i thought this board was against.
I guess if you’re forced to find something to bitch about while we uncover the ridiculous amount of fraud and abuse that is destroying our financial stability as a nation this is as good an argument as any.
And crony capitalism is the govt auto paying fraudulent entities…not exposing it. Your priorities are backwards.

You also voted for Bernie 'Lake House' Sanders and believe he's on the "up and up" only taking donations from individuals like yourself. You're a complete moron.

Now this is the logic of someone who's never had an independent thought in his life.
"The president of the US has to give money to terrorist organizations that kill Americans because congress was either duped or intentionally sold out the country." The guy in charge of the safety of the entire country is not allowed to protect its citizens if congress fails in their responsibility, according to your logic.
Following stupid rules is more important to you than saving lives. You need rules to follow because you are incapable of thinking for yourself.

He has a position under the presidents power to help with American salvation. Why are you complaining instead cheering the discovery of wasted money

Nothing like "America First" having a non American billionaire openly running the US government like this. He has his hands in everything It's insane so many people voted for this madness.

They paid the State Department almost 40 billion dollars a year for over 20 yrs that wasn't approved by congress. So as Elon said, "you can go frick yourself".

These fricks deserve no less than the death penalty.

No, in fact I want to follow the constitution's guidance on treason and put to death anyone lawfully convicted. I don't care if it's literally hundreds of thousands of government officials and employees. Aide terrorists isn't something that should be taken lightly.
