in World News Musk’s DOGE Sets Sights on Congress Members’ Mysterious Wealth Accumulation
By
Elon Musk isn’t just building rockets and revolutionizing transportation — now, he’s zeroing in on something far more down-to-earth: the mysteriously fattened wallets of certain career politicians.
While speaking at a Wisconsin town hall Sunday night, the billionaire tech mogul and newly minted government watchdog brought the fire straight to Capitol Hill.
As reported by The New York Post, Musk confirmed that his Department of Government Efficiency, cheekily abbreviated as DOGE, is looking into how some of America’s so-called public servants have amassed stunning fortunes — despite earning government salaries that don’t exactly scream “generational wealth.”
Musk was asked whether DOGE had uncovered any shady transfers of U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) funds to prominent Democrats like Rep. Maxine Waters, Sen. Adam Schiff, or Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. Musk didn’t hold back.
“They’ll send the money overseas to one NGO. Then they’ll go through a bunch of them, and then I’m highly confident that a bunch of that money then comes back to the United States and lands in the pockets of the people you just mentioned.”
The process isn’t exactly straightforward — but Musk made it clear he believes there’s more than just smoke here.
“There’s a lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress where I’m trying to connect the dots of, ‘How do they become rich?’”
