Trans Mice And Arab ‘Sesame Street’: Trump Goes Through Laundry List Of Absurd Spending DOGE Found

President Donald Trump on Tuesday went through a laundry list of all the absurd spending by the government that the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has already shut down.

Speaking to a joint session of Congress, Trump pointed out all the “appalling waste we have already identified” by DOGE, which is headed up by Elon Musk, finally allowing millions of Americans to know exactly what their tax dollars have been wasted on.

“Twenty-two billion dollars from HHS to provide free housing and cars for illegal aliens,” the president explained. “Forty-five million dollars for diversity, equity, and inclusion scholarships in Burma.”

“Eight million dollars to promote LGBTQI+ in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody’s ever heard of,” he added. “Sixty million dollars for indigenous people and Afro-Colombian empowerment in Central America. Eight million dollars to make mice transgender. This is real.”

“Thirty-two million for a left-wing propaganda operation in Moldova,” Trump continued. “Ten million for male circumcision in Mozambique. Twenty million for the Arab ‘Sesame Street’ in the Middle East. It’s a program. Twenty million dollars for a program. One-point-nine billion to the recently-created Decarbonization of Homes Committee headed up — and we know she’s involved just at the last moment the money was passed over — by a woman named Stacey Abrams.”

The president went on to list things like $47 million for better “learning outcomes in Asia” and $14 million for “social cohesion in Mali.”

When pointing out the tens of millions spent to improve learning outcomes in Asia, Trump said he disapproved, remarking that “Asia is doing really well with learning.” He added that the United States could learn from programs in Asia.

Trump also pointed out that DOGE discovered such “$59 million for illegal alien hotel rooms in New York City,” “$42 million for social and behavior change in Uganda,” and much more.

Congressman Michael Cloud (R-TX) wrote on X about Trump’s waste breakdown, “In under 3 minutes President Trump listed over $24.5 BILLION dollars in waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government. Americans have been forced to pay for the demise of their own country, but no more!”
