Inside the Departments of Waste, Fraud, and Abuse

By Steve Clifford

After Trump named them head up the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy decided to curtail waste, fraud, and abuse. To fish where the fish are, they contemplated eliminating three government agencies — the Department of Waste, the Department of Fraud, and the Department of Abuse.

Then Trump announced he would appoint crypto swindler Sam Bankman-Fried as
Secretary of the Department of Fraud, and David DePape, who hammered Nancy
Pelosi’s husband, to head the Department of Abuse.

“These appointees are highly qualified for these offices,“ Trump tweeted on Truth Social. “They have great chins.” Trump had previously promised Tech billionaires and Evangelical vicars that the chins of his cabinet would surpass those of the 1940 German General Staff in “chiseled manliness.”

Though the Bankman-Fried and DePape appointments were attacked by liberal media,
Republican Senators declared that America had clearly voted for disruption and
chiseled manliness.
