WATCH: Elon And DOGE Expose “Untraceable” $5 TRILLION in Treasury Payments, “No Idea Where It Went”
American Tribune ^ | March 26, 2025 | Mike Alby

In a stunning revelation, the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced the discovery of nearly $5 trillion in unaccounted-for government spending. The massive government oversights are due to a previously optional financial tracking field linking US Treasury payments to specific budget line items.

For reference, under Elon Musk’s leadership, DOGE aggressively pursues the elimination of government waste and promotes transparency in federal spending, a key priority of President Donald Trump’s administration. The executive order signed on President Trump’s first day in office is a temporary White House initiative with an 18-month mission; the department has already uncovered massive government fraud and waste while also receiving significant pushback from loony leftists.

The DOGE team specifically credited the US Treasury for its assistance in identifying and correcting this oversight. In a detailed post on X, the official DOGE explained, “The Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) is an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item (standard financial process). In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for ~$4.7 Trillion in payments and was often left blank, making traceability almost impossible. As of Saturday, this is now a required field, increasing insight into where money is actually going. Thanks to the US Treasury for the great work.”

Multiple X accounts were outraged by the incomprehensible amount of money moving through these payments without proper accounting. Amongst those who voiced their outrage on X over the wasting of trillions of dollars, one commenter who expressed his disdain particularly powerfully said, “If it is even remotely true that $5 Trillion was paid without proper documentation, a team of forensic accountants needs to be formed to, on a statistical basis, sample the payments and trace them through the banking system to identify the actual recipient of the funds. Based on that analysis, the fraud must be identified within the sample group and extended to all related payments. The guilty persons, when identified, must be punished.”

For background, the response to DOGE’s excellent job uncovering the scandal prompted liberal attorney generals from 14 states to initiate lawsuits attempting to block the department from accessing federal data. Democratic circles organized nationwide rallies opposing the agency’s access to financial oversight while stoking the fire and adding to the anti-Musk sentiment around the country, leading to recent vandalism at multiple Tesla dealerships.

The rallies against Musk underscore the values that tax-paying Americans hold dear, suggesting that liberals are more interested in playing politics than actual results. One commentator questioned such opposition, writing, “Democrats are holding nationwide rallies to protest DOGE investigating and cutting government spending. How can any normal tax-paying American support Democrats after this?”

Despite these legal battles, DOGE scored a significant victory recently when a federal judge in Washington rejected a motion to temporarily restrict its access to critical data from the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, causing a public response. An X user made a hilarious dig at Democrats and expressed their love for Musk’s wins, saying, “I guess the Democrats’s new playbook is to scream about how no one elected Elon Musk. Well, you wretched witches, we actually did vote for the creation of DOGE led by Elon Musk, and we are loving the results so far.”

Ultimately, the astonishing discovery of nearly $5 trillion in untraceable payments demands immediate attention and decisive action, highlighting the critical importance of DOGE’s mission to restore accountability, efficiency, and transparency to government operations, ensuring taxpayer dollars are used responsibly, and fraud and waste are aggressively eliminated despite how hard liberals cry. Here is a video from the Salem News Channel discussing the massive DOGE discovery:

I was in IT for many years. This should have been a requirement from day one.

Stopping democrat graft will do for now — we’re talking trillions here. They are stealing us dry.

And you? Are you talking about the democrat wet dream that we would touch Social Security? Gimme a break. Trump has already said a hundred timed that he will NOT touch Social Security.

Let the democrats do that - they hate our country. They could finish Biden’s job of bankrupting the country THAT would have ended Social Security. And everything else. So let’s keep democrats out... so they can’t destroy everything.

Are The DOJ and FBI investigating anything that DOGE is exposing on an almost daily basis? Is any criminality on the part of The Washington political establishment being investigated? The assassination attempts on President Trump? ANYTHING???

Official govt portrait Nigerian Wally Adeyomo, Biden’s US Treasury hire.
Nigerian Wally Adeyomo is an experienced Democrat and more than proved his worth.

<>he was Biden’s US Treasury hire,

<>Adeyemo abruptly quit Treasury when Trump came in.

<>Ademeyo refused to handover documents chronicling his Treasury activities

<>he quit Treasury leaving $4.7 trillion in unidentified Treasury payments.

<>the Nigerian once headed Obama’s “Foundation” which made Obama “a billionaire.”

<>Why Obama wont discuss his Foundation finances?

LOL. It all comes down to accounting.

My father always said - a good accountant will help you more than any lawyer, doctor, or priest.

I bet some of it is in the Clinton Foundation and the multi million payments to Zero, Big Mike, and Megxit and the Ginger Duke

I wonder if Grok could do that now if given the url? I know I have been working on my family tree, but I am to the point the documents are in foreign languages and foreign cursive from the mid to late 1800’s. I can snap a copy of the image and feed it to Grok to decipher in seconds.

How can any normal tax-paying American support Democrats after this?

Although SS is not an enumerated power delegated to the federal gov’t by the Constitution, many Americans have paid into it and the gov’t owes them.

An amendment to the Constitution needs to be ratified to make SS legal. Right now, SS is unconstitutional. Or come up with a better plan for individuals to plan for their retirement. Ultimately, that is an individual choice, not a constitutionally-delegated gov’t requirement.

Leave the SS issue alone for now and DISMANTLE THE BALANCE of the unconstitutional portion of the gov’t.

THAT is something the Dems and the Left are deathly afraid of and SHOULD BE a major objective of the Patriotic Right.
