Sen. Ernst: I Presented a $2 Trillion Savings Blueprint to DOGE; ‘I’m Loving What They Are Doing’
EXCERPT:
ERNST: “Absolutely, Larry. And thank you so much for having me on today to talk about the Department of Government Efficiency. This is something that I have worked on through my ‘squeal’ efforts for over a decade now. And before we went into this Congress, I was able to go to Mar-a-Lago and present Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk with an eight-page memorandum of work that I’ve done over the past decade, a $2 trillion savings blueprint for the Department of Government Efficiency. I’m so glad that Elon Musk and the president have given us a platform to get this done. They are being very aggressive, and you’re right, Larry. I’m loving what they are doing. Because, without this disruption, it would have been business as usual. I would have gone on pushing out my ‘squeal’ reports with nobody in the White House to really grab hold of it. So, I’m thankful for the president. I am thankful that Elon Musk has taken on this additional duty, on top of everything else he does, to really focus on cost savings and efficiencies for our American taxpayers.”
