esterday? Trump is doing what we should have done. Quote, "Trump is moving so fast. They hit the ground running in a serious way. It's like genuinely impressive." Remember, this is the most Democrat, anti-Trump people you've ever heard. It's genuinely impressive. Impressive. And then they throw in this: impressive in a dark and sinister way. But nonetheless impressive. So even when they're fully…

And then there's Dan Goldman. There's no accountability or oversight with the DOGE project. There's no accountability or oversight. Well, here's the problem of having politicians talk about things that make sense. They can't do it. I'm pretty sure that in the history of audits of big companies, there's not one time that the CEO went along with the audit, you know, with the auditors. So when a big company does its own audit, they'll often audit themselves. Do you think the CEO follows them around and says, what do you got there, Bob? Did you find a document? What's it say? What's it say? Oh, it says that. All right, now what do you got? What's that? Can you read that to me?
There's no world in which the CEO is informed about the audit while it's going on, except for the big stuff. So the auditor might say we found this, we found that, we found that. But is the CEO saying give me the document to prove it? Or is the CEO saying all right, when you're done with the audit, write it up and then tell me everything you found? I think the most normal way that DOGE should be working is that Musk should answer questions every day, which he does. What do you find? What are you looking at? And he says so. But the onus is on him and DOGE to provide documents when he's done.
Now will everything that he says preliminarily turn out to be, will it check out? Not everything. No. This is a messy process and it has to be, because there's no way to do a clean process. So you either give up or you do it messy. There's only two possibilities. We don't want to give up. So there's that.
And then the other one is CNN's running with this one. There's no actual evidence of fraud. What do you mean there's no actual evidence? Do you need a court case? They're doing the same thing they did with the election. Well, there's no actual evidence. Just because everything looks sketchy, but there's no actual court who said that.
So let's see. We've got dark and sinister. We've got stealing your democracy, setting up a kleptocracy. No accountability or oversight. And no actual evidence of fraud. What do all of those things have in common? There's not a single American citizen who gives a about any of it. Give me my straw. Get rid of these pennies. Solve the war in Ukraine. Cut the budget. There's a pretty long list of things I do care about, but nowhere on that list is the dark and sinister, stealing your democracy. Oh, he's also stealing your privacy. They're stealing my privacy. There's no accountability or oversight. No actual evidence of fraud. It's pretty weak. Weak sauce.
Well, here's something I hate. I hate waking up and being the second funniest Scott. I'm kind of used to being the funniest Scott, you know, and

at least in the news business there aren't too many funny Scots. But Scott Jennings is just lapping me lately. I just had a belly laugh over this one. So Scott Jennings is commenting this morning over someone else's post. Well, it was a story actually on Fox News. So his comment, I'll just read it in the order that it's written. So Scott Jennings posts on X. He says Trump lets cut taxes, shrink t…
