THOUSANDS OF DOUBLE-DIPPING BUREAUCRATS? Oh surely not! Oh surely yes, declares Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), chairman of the Senate DOGE Caucus, in a new report that points to multiple agencies where, cumulatively, literally thousands of federal workers are still drawing paychecks and Pandemic-related unemployment checks.

But wait! There’s more!! Thousands more federal workers, according to the report, are using their insider access to steal millions of tax dollars that are paid to fake contractors, suppliers, beneficiaries, etc. et.

“Why are government employee unions fighting so hard, all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, to block [DOGE] from accessing the information necessary to stop fraud and abuse? The answer is obvious. The deep state doesn’t want those meddling whiz kids at DOGE exposing the Washington corruption that’s been hiding in plain sight for way too long. Unscrupulous bureaucrats have been ripping off public assistance programs intended to help the needy, disabled, hungry, out-of-work folks, veterans, small businesses, and even children who lost a parent,” the report contends.

Unfortunately, there is yet more to this expose, which you can read all about in The Washington Stand this morning.
