Earlier during President Donald Trump’s second term, his DOGE team discovered tremendous wasteful and suspicious spending of taxpayer funds.
Examples include USAID awarded a grant of $70,884 to Ceiliuradh Company Limited by Guarantee, based in Ventry, County Kerry, Ireland. The grant’s purpose was to “deliver a live musical event to promote the U.S. and Irish shared values of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.”
They learned how the Biden Administration’s U.S. Department of State, through the U.S. Embassy in Lima, Peru, awarded a $32,000 grant to produce a custom comic book featuring an LGBTQ+ hero.
The project’s aim was to address social and mental health issues within the LGBTQ+ community in Peru.
Here is a quick roundup of some of the more recently discovered strangest uses of government funding.
These are the most baffling uses that the Department of Government Efficiency has uncovered.

Transcendent Health – Adapting an LGB+ inclusive teen pregnancy prevention program for transgender boys

So much misuse of taxpayer money! I once worked for a non profit and I can assure you a lot of government grants sound just like that. I once helped to write one that was something like, “supporting sustainable community systems.” Nobody knows what that even means, but it aligns with our ideology and sounds green and environmentally friendly.

What exactly is “racial justice in elementary mathematics?” Two plus two equals whatever makes you happy? 🙂

Yikes! I’m sorry to learn you were sidelined by CHF. Praise God for your improvement! Do you also have a naturopathic doctor or doctor of functional medicine to guide you through a complementary treatment plan? You and Dodie are now included in my morning prayers, Jack.

Yes, the DOGE group did justice. It was amazing how many Canadian Universities in the top 5 were collecting such monies. All in the name of DEI. I was smurking when the DOGE group starting defunding then it wasn’t long after universities and colleges started laying off staff and cutting programs almost immediately. The media conviently blamed the Canadian government for cutting immigrant students from being educated in this country. Well I couldn’t help myself on social media. Stating the obvious how the colleges and universities were cashing in on the USAID program
