Musk announced a series of “super obvious” changes that the US treasury and DOGE jointly agreed to on Saturday. Among them was requiring the treasury to add a “payment authorization code” and rationale to all outgoing payments and strengthening implementation of the DO-NOT-PAY list to ensure federal funds aren’t going to terrorist fronts and other fraudsters.
President Donald Trump predicted that Musk is likely to find hundreds of billions of dollars in “fraud and abuse” once DOGE sets its sights on The Department of Education and Pentagon, in a pre-Superbowl interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier.

“The amount of waste is staggering,” Sen. Scott said.
“Elon Musk is doing a great job, Donald Trump is doing a great job, and the Democrats cannot believe that all their failure, all their fraud and all their waste is being exposed, and it’s going away.”
