Another piece of evidence has emerged showing that the United States is joyriding straight into disaster. On Tuesday, “4.7 trillion” was trending on the X social media platform. Why? Because the Department of Government Efficiency has identified $4.7 trillion in payments by the United States Treasury that are difficult or impossible to trace. Yes, $4.7 trillion!

That gargantuan amount is equivalent to all taxes collected by the irs during an entire year.

Meanwhile, the federal government pays an astonishing $1 trillion per year in interest on the national debt. Yet Congress keeps spending, keeps accruing even more debt. The Congressional Budget Office admits that by 2035, roughly 22 percent of all tax revenue will go toward interest payments on our $59 trillion national debt.

America’s spending and debt are a major national security threat—and the more information that the Department of Government Efficiency uncovers, the more we are learning how enormous this threat is!

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk warned in September that America was rapidly going bankrupt. He emphasized that Americans had a “once-in-a-lifetime” shot at reducing the size of the government if they elected Donald Trump to the presidency. They did, and on Inauguration Day, President Trump converted the United States Digital Service to the United States DOGE Service: Most people refer to it as the Department of Government Efficiency, and it’s unofficially led—and quite actively promoted—by Musk.

Musk has said that he wants to slash $1 trillion to $2 trillion in wasteful federal spending and to reduce the size of the federal bureaucracy as well as its scope.

In his first three weeks as a senior adviser to President Trump and the champion of doge, Musk’s team identified more than $3 billion in cuts, including canceling so-called “diversity, equity and inclusion” programs, Department of Education contracts, General Services Administration wastage, and other spending.

“There’s crazy things!” Musk said at an impromptu February 11 press conference with President Trump in the Oval Office. “Just a cursory examination of Social Security, and we’ve got people in there that are about 150 years old.” He cited examples of taxpayer dollars going toward sending condoms to Mozambique, a government employee whose net worth jumped $23 million during her three years in office, and the fact that the retirement process for federal employees takes months because their documents are not digital but rather paper forms stored in cardboard boxes in a mine.

The list of “crazy things” grows constantly as doge employees examine different departments. They have identified $1.9 billion in Housing and Urban Development money that was misplaced while Joe Biden was in the White House, $50 million in “environmental justice” grant money to a group that believes “climate justice travels through a free Palestine,” a contract for “Asia Pacific-Sri Lanka climate-change mitigation adaption and resilience coordinator services for forest service,” a workshop for “intercultural communication diversity dialogue circle communicating across differences,” “groundwater exploration and assessment in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania,” a contract for an Anthony Fauci exhibit at the National Institutes of Health Museum, and millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded subscriptions to leftist media outlets like the New York Times, Politico and others.

Other examples exposed or highlighted by doge include leases for underutilized and unused buildings; dei scholarships in Burma; Federal Emergency Management Agency funding for a New York City hotel that housed migrants, cartel members and the man who went on to murder Laken Riley; and so much more.

“The last time a comprehensive review of the federal government was completed in 1984,” doge posted on X, “the budget was $848 billion, national debt was $1.6 trillion, and debt-to-gdp ratio was 38 percent. The budget is now $7 trillion, the national debt is $35.3 trillion, and the debt-to-gdp ratio is 121.6 percent.”

You would think that every American would be grateful for this long-overdue, sorely needed audit of the federal government. But Big Government leftists are organizing hundreds of lawsuits against President Trump’s administration in an attempt to make sure that the taxpayer cash keeps flowing out of American citizens and into insane, corrupt programs here and abroad.

District Court Judge Paul Engelmayer went as far as to issue a temporary restraining order preventing doge employees from accessing the payment system of the Treasury Department because they were not official enough for him. So you have the chief executive of the executive branch of government establishing a department for auditing the executive branch—and a low-ranking judicial branch judge blocking him. Such judicial activism is not about preserving the U.S. Constitution. It is about empowering unelected bureaucrats to subvert the plans of a president elected by 77 million America citizens.

This is a “once-in-a-lifetime” chance to drain the federal bureaucracy swamp, to reduce extreme wastage that is threatening national security, and to reduce the size of the government and limit its ever expanding interference in the lives of American citizens. But the swamp hates being audited. There are 2.3 million civil servants in the federal government, but many of these “servants” are terrified of the American taxpayer finding out what is happening to trillions of dollars. They would rather bankrupt the country than let anyone seriously audit their departments. They know that tens of thousands of bureaucrats will be fired if Americans find out about the corruption, fraud and waste that have infected the federal government like a slime mold.

The radical left has been using lawfare to attack President Trump for almost a decade. Yet their attempts to destroy him have backfired and delivered him a 77 million-voter mandate. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are out of office, puppetmaster Barack Obama is losing his power, and leftists are struggling to attack Trump using the Congress, the presidency or even “deep state” agents in the Department of Justice and other federal departments. One of their main tools right now is activist judges willing to subvert the Constitution in the name of “saving” it.

Hundreds of Obama-appointed judges are ready to attack President Trump, Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency. But Bible prophecy indicates that they will have much less success than in the past under Biden or Obama, and even during President Trump’s first term.

My father, Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry, has written and proved that President Trump is an end-time type of the ancient Israelite King Jeroboam ii. He wrote in the August 2019 issue of the Philadelphia Trumpet that Amos 7:12-13 is a prophecy telling us that this same figure will be supported by a religious movement called the “king’s chapel” and a secular entity called the “kingdom’s court.”

“In Washington, D.C., is the Supreme Court building, where judges are to interpret the law,” he wrote in “Can President Trump Get Control of His Own Divided Government?” “In the same area are buildings for the cia, the fbi, the Justice Department, the State Department, the Pentagon and others. … It is logical this prophecy is talking about these government structures, or agencies. After all, if Jeroboam is going to be used to save Israel, he would need the law on his side. He wouldn’t be able to use the government like he needed to without the legal structure behind him.”

This indicates that lower court activist Obama judges might resist President Trump, but the Supreme Court could rule in his favor. Judges like Engelmayer are trying to make it look like President Trump and Elon Musk’s pruning of U.S. government bureaucracy is a threat to the Constitution. As Musk wrote with Vivek Ramaswamy in a Wall Street Journal editorial last year, “Our nation was founded on the basic idea that the people we elect run the government. That isn’t how America functions today. Most legal edicts aren’t laws enacted by Congress, but ‘rules and regulations’ promulgated by unelected bureaucrats—tens of thousands of them each year. … This is antidemocratic and antithetical to the founders’ vision. It imposes massive direct and indirect costs on taxpayers. Thankfully, we have a historic opportunity to solve the problem.”

For decades, the presidency, Congress and the Supreme Court allowed executive agencies to usurp executive authority from the president, legislative authority from Congress and judicial authority from the courts. But last year, the Supreme Court signaled its willingness to crack down on these bureaucrats and the unconstitutional fourth branch of government they have created.

In West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency, the court held that the Environmental Protection Agency exceeded its constitutional authority, which is merely to enforce laws made by the people’s representatives in Congress. In Loper Bright v. Raimondo, the court held that executive branch agencies may no longer interpret their own application of these laws. In Trump v. United States, the court affirmed that that “Article ii of the Constitution vests ‘executive power’ in ‘a president of the United States of America.’” This statement affirms that the president is the sole source of executive power in the federal government. As the Constitution states, he cannot usurp Congress’s legislative power or the courts’ judicial power, and judges like Paul Engelmayer cannot usurp his executive power either.

President Trump has full constitutional right to audit the executive agencies that report to him and fire executive employees as he sees fit. Activist judges may try to stop him, but the Supreme Court is highly likely to back Trump’s attempt to make the executive branch small enough for the president to control. The radical left hates this idea, but the Constitution only authorizes three branches of government: legislative, executive and judicial.

One way or another, the bureaucratic swamp that has taken over Washington, D.C., is going to become the “kingdom’s court”—an efficient law enforcement agency that helps “King Jeroboam” enforce the nation’s laws. President Trump’s war against the deep state isn’t over. Yet he has finally uncovered enough corruption to swing popular opinion over to his side. Most of the people loudly protesting his attempts to slash government waste are beneficiaries of government waste, so their protests are likely to turn more voters against them.

Keep watching for more corruption, fraud and waste to be exposed. God wants the American people to see how bad things have gotten so they have a chance to turn their nation around before it is too late.
