Like Elon said, um, it's big numbers, right? Yeah. Like Elon said, um, the minimum impulse bit is Yeah. Like Elon said, um, the minimum impulse bit is Yeah. Like Elon said, um, the minimum impulse bit is often a billion dollars. So, the minimum impulse bit is often a billion dollars. So, the minimum impulse bit is often a billion dollars. So, for example, the 830 often a billion dollars. So, for example, the 830 often a billion dollars.

So, for example, the 830 million, um, which was the for example, the 830 million, um, which was the for example, the 830 million, um, which was the online survey.

Stacked 10 high to house. 400 million pieces cabinets. Stacked 10 high to house. 400 million pieces cabinets. Stacked 10 high to house. 400 million pieces of paper. Uh, it's a house. 400 million pieces of paper. Uh, it's a house. 400 million pieces of paper. Uh, it's a process that started in the of paper. Uh, it's a process that started in the of paper.

Uh, it's a process that started in the 1950s and largely hasn't process that started in the 1950s and largely hasn't process that started in the 1950s and largely hasn't changed. in the last 70 1950s and largely hasn't changed. in the last 70 1950s and largely hasn't changed. in the last 70 years. and so, as he dug changed. in the last 70 years. and so, as he dug changed. in the last 70 years. and so, as he dug into it, we found a years.

and so, as he dug into it, we found a years. and so, as he dug into it, we found a retirement cases that had into it, we found a retirement cases that had into it, we found a retirement cases that had so much paper. They had retirement cases that had so much paper. They had retirement cases that had so much paper. They had to fit it on a shipping so much paper. They had to fit it on a shipping so much paper.

They had to fit it on a shipping pallet so, uh, the process to fit it on a shipping pallet so, uh, the process to fit it on a shipping pallet so, uh, the process takes many months and we're pallet so, uh, the process takes many months and we're pallet so, uh, the process takes many months and we're going to make it just takes many months and we're going to make it just takes many months and we're going to make it just many days.

Well, it would be going to make it just many days. Well, it would be going to make it just many days. Well, it would be digitized or how. many days. Well, it would be digitized or how. many days. Well, it would be digitized or how. So this will be an digitized or how. So this will be an digitized or how.

So this will be an an online digital process that So this will be an an online digital process that So this will be an an online digital process that will take just a few days an online digital process that will take just a few days an online digital process that will take just a few days at most And I really will take just a few days at most And I really will take just a few days at most And I really think, you know, it's an at most And I really think, you know, it's an at most And I really think, you know, it's an injustice.

To civil think, you know, it's an injustice. To civil think, you know, it's an injustice. To civil servants. Who are subjected injustice. To civil servants. Who are subjected injustice.

in a stuff is done by still done by paper. in a stuff is done by still done by paper. in a process, that looks done by paper. in a process, that looks done by paper. in a process, that looks identical to what occurred process, that looks identical to what occurred process, that looks identical to what occurred in the 1950s. Like if you identical to what occurred in the 1950s. Like if you identical to what occurred in the 1950s.

Like if you took a snapshot of the in the 1950s. Like if you took a snapshot of the in the 1950s. Like if you took a snapshot of the mine, when it first started took a snapshot of the mine, when it first started took a snapshot of the mine, when it first started in the 50s to today, mine, when it first started in the 50s to today, mine, when it first started in the 50s to today, it looks the same. It's in the 50s to today, it looks the same.

It's in the 50s to today, it looks the same. It's amazing. So, how long it looks the same. It's amazing. So, how long it looks the same. It's amazing. So, how long do you think it'll take amazing.

that are marked as alive. In the social 120. that are marked as alive. In the social security system, and that's alive. In the social security system, and that's alive. In the social security system, and that's an accurate. figure. security system, and that's an accurate. figure. security system, and that's an accurate. figure. Yeah, interact 15. an accurate. figure. Yeah, interact 15. an accurate. figure. Yeah, interact 15. correct.

This has been Yeah, interact 15. correct. This has been Yeah, interact 15. correct. This has been something that's been correct. This has been something that's been correct. This has been something that's been identified as a problem something that's been identified as a problem something that's been identified as a problem again. Pre-existing identified as a problem again. Pre-existing identified as a problem again.

Pre-existing problems since 2008 at again. Pre-existing problems since 2008 at again. Pre-existing problems since 2008 at least from an IG report. problems since 2008 at least from an IG report. problems since 2008 at least from an IG report. So this there are some least from an IG report. So this there are some least from an IG report.

So this there are some great people working at the So this there are some great people working at the So this there are some great people working at the Social Security great people working at the Social Security great people working at the Social Security Administration and Social Social Security Administration and Social Social Security Administration and Social Security Administration Administration and Social Security Administration Administration and Social Security Administration that found this 2008.

and Security Administration that found this 2008. and Security Administration that found this 2008. and nothing was done. and so that found this 2008. and nothing was done. and so that found this 2008. and nothing was done. and so 15 to 20 million nothing was done. and so 15 to 20 million nothing was done.

and so 15 to 20 million Social Security numbers that 15 to 20 million Social Security numbers that 15 to 20 million Social Security numbers that were clearly fraudulent. Um, Social Security numbers that were clearly fraudulent. Um, Social Security numbers that were clearly fraudulent. Um, were floating around um, were clearly fraudulent. Um, were floating around um, were clearly fraudulent. Um, were floating around um, that can be used to.

only were floating around um, that can be used to. only were floating around um, that can be used to. only for about intentions. that can be used to. only for about intentions. that can be used to. only for about intentions. there would be no way for about intentions. there would be no way for about intentions.

there would be no way to use this for good there would be no way to use this for good there would be no way to use this for good intentions. And so what to use this for good intentions. And so what to use this for good intentions. And so what 1 of the things to do team intentions. And so what 1 of the things to do team intentions.

And so what 1 of the things to do team is doing is carefully and, 1 of the things to do team is doing is carefully and, 1 of the things to do team is doing is carefully and, and very methodically is doing is carefully and, and very methodically is doing is carefully and, and very methodically looking at those and making and very methodically looking at those and making and very methodically looking at those and making sure that any fraudulent looking at those and making sure that any fraudulent looking at those and making sure that any fraudulent ones are eliminated.

Brad sure that any fraudulent ones are eliminated. Brad sure that any fraudulent ones are eliminated. Brad Smith. uh, working at HHS ones are eliminated. Brad Smith. uh, working at HHS ones are eliminated. Brad Smith. uh, working at HHS um, and obviously another Smith. uh, working at HHS um, and obviously another Smith.

uh, working at HHS um, and obviously another element is Medicare and um, and obviously another element is Medicare and um, and obviously another element is Medicare and Medicaid. NIH. uh, what element is Medicare and Medicaid. NIH. uh, what element is Medicare and Medicaid. NIH. uh, what are you finding Yeah. Well Medicaid. NIH. uh, what are you finding Yeah. Well Medicaid. NIH. uh, what are you finding Yeah.

Well I'd say there's a couple are you finding Yeah. Well I'd say there's a couple are you finding Yeah.

Well I'd say there's a couple things we're really I'd say there's a couple things we're really I'd say there's a couple things we're really committed to in our work things we're really committed to in our work things we're really committed to in our work at HHS number 1, Making committed to in our work at HHS number 1, Making committed to in our work at HHS number 1, Making sure we continue to have at HHS number 1, Making sure we continue to have at HHS number 1, Making sure we continue to have the best biomedical sure we continue to have the best biomedical sure we continue to have the best biomedical research have the world.

the best biomedical research have the world. the best biomedical research have the world. And number 2, making sure research have the world. And number 2, making sure research have the world. And number 2, making sure which president Trump has And number 2, making sure which president Trump has And number 2, making sure which president Trump has said over and over again. which president Trump has said over and over again.

which president Trump has said over and over again. That we 100% protect said over and over again. That we 100% protect said over and over again. That we 100% protect Medicare and Medicaid, but That we 100% protect Medicare and Medicaid, but That we 100% protect Medicare and Medicaid, but there's a lot of Medicare and Medicaid, but there's a lot of Medicare and Medicaid, but there's a lot of opportunity. So if I take there's a lot of opportunity.

So if I take there's a lot of opportunity. So if I take NIH as an example today, opportunity. So if I take NIH as an example today, opportunity.

So if I take NIH as an example today, if you're NIH researcher NIH as an example today, if you're NIH researcher NIH as an example today, if you're NIH researcher and you get a hundred dollar if you're NIH researcher and you get a hundred dollar if you're NIH researcher and you get a hundred dollar Grant at your University and you get a hundred dollar Grant at your University and you get a hundred dollar Grant at your University today, you get to Grant at your University today,

you get to Grant at your University today, you get to spend 60 of that and your today, you get to spend 60 of that and your today, you get to spend 60 of that and your University spends 40 of spend 60 of that and your University spends 40 of spend 60 of that and your University spends 40 of that.

the policy that we're University spends 40 of that. the policy that we're University spends 40 of that. the policy that we're proposing to make is that that. the policy that we're proposing to make is that that.

the policy that we're proposing to make is that you get to spend 85 of that proposing to make is that you get to spend 85 of that proposing to make is that you get to spend 85 of that and your University spends you get to spend 85 of that and your University spends you get to spend 85 of that and your University spends 15. So that's more money and your University spends 15. So that's more money and your University spends 15.

So that's more money going directly to the 15. So that's more money going directly to the 15. So that's more money going directly to the scientists who are going directly to the scientists who are going directly to the scientists who are discovering new cures. scientists who are discovering new cures. scientists who are discovering new cures. Another example at NIH is discovering new cures. Another example at NIH is discovering new cures.

Another example at NIH is today they have 27, Another example at NIH is today they have 27, Another example at NIH is today they have 27, different centers, they got today they have 27, different centers, they got today they have 27, different centers, they got created over time by different centers, they got created over time by different centers, they got created over time by Congress and they're created over time by Congress and they're created over time by Congress and they're typically by disease state Congress and they're typically by disease state Congress and they're typically by disease state or body system.

There's 700 typically by disease state or body system. There's 700 typically by disease state or body system. There's 700 different it systems today or body system. There's 700 different it systems today or body system. There's 700 different it systems today at NIH 700 different it different it systems today at NIH 700 different it different it systems today at NIH 700 different it Software System. They at NIH 700 different it Software System.

They at NIH 700 different it Software System. They don't, they can't speak Software System. They don't, they can't speak Software System. They don't, they can't speak to each other so they don't don't, they can't speak to each other so they don't don't, they can't speak to each other so they don't talk to 1. They have 27 to each other so they don't talk to 1. They have 27 to each other so they don't talk to 1.

They have 27 different cios and so talk to 1. They have 27 different cios and so talk to 1.

They have 27 different cios and so when you think about making different cios and so when you think about making different cios and so when you think about making great medical discoveries, when you think about making great medical discoveries, when you think about making great medical discoveries, you have to connect the great medical discoveries, you have to connect the great medical discoveries, you have to connect the data time.

Yeah, you said you have to connect the data time. Yeah, you said you have to connect the data time. Yeah, you said 27 different Chief data time. Yeah, you said 27 different Chief data time. Yeah, you said 27 different Chief Information officers. 27 different Chief Information officers. 27 different Chief Information officers. Correct. And Information officers. Correct. And Information officers. Correct. And most people on Tech. So Correct.

And most people on Tech. So Correct. And most people on Tech. So there's a lot there, most people on Tech. So there's a lot there, most people on Tech. So there's a lot there, There's a, there's a there's a lot there, There's a, there's a there's a lot there, There's a, there's a opportunity, and it will make There's a, there's a opportunity, and it will make There's a, there's a opportunity, and it will make When I say that.

uh, our job opportunity, and it will make When I say that. uh, our job opportunity, and it will make When I say that. uh, our job is tech support. I really When I say that. uh, our job is tech support. I really When I say that. uh, our job is tech support. I really mean it. Yeah. we have to is tech support. I really mean it. Yeah. we have to is tech support. I really mean it. Yeah. we have to fix the computers. If the mean it. Yeah.

we have to fix the computers. If the mean it. Yeah. we have to fix the computers. If the computers can't talk to fix the computers. If the computers can't talk to fix the computers. If the computers can't talk to each other, you can't get computers can't talk to each other, you can't get computers can't talk to each other, you can't get research done. If the each other, you can't get research done. If the each other, you can't get research done.

If the computers, uh, can't go research done. If the computers, uh, can't go research done. If the computers, uh, can't go stay online people. computers, uh, can't go stay online people. computers, uh, can't go stay online people. will receive their social stay online people. will receive their social stay online people. will receive their social security. So what we have will receive their social security.

So what we have will receive their social security. So what we have here are a bunch of failing security. So what we have here are a bunch of failing security.

So what we have here are a bunch of failing computer systems that are here are a bunch of failing computer systems that are here are a bunch of failing computer systems that are preventing people from computer systems that are preventing people from computer systems that are preventing people from receiving their benefits. preventing people from receiving their benefits. preventing people from receiving their benefits.

That are preventing people receiving their benefits. That are preventing people receiving their benefits. That are preventing people from preventing research That are preventing people from preventing research That are preventing people from preventing research from happening. Um, that from preventing research from happening. Um, that from preventing research from happening. Um, that are uh, extremely vulnerable from happening.

Um, that are uh, extremely vulnerable from happening. Um, that are uh, extremely vulnerable to fraud. Um, and we're are uh, extremely vulnerable to fraud. Um, and we're are uh, extremely vulnerable to fraud. Um, and we're fixing it. And does that to fraud. Um, and we're fixing it. And does that to fraud. Um, and we're fixing it. And does that include AI. Does that fixing it. And does that include AI. Does that fixing it. And does that include AI.

Does that include? kind of changing include AI. Does that include? kind of changing include AI.

So that leaves you with Duplicate of functions. it that leaves you with Duplicate of functions. it that leaves you with Duplicate of functions. it leaves you with Duplicate of functions. it leaves you with Duplicate of functions.

it leaves you with overstaffing and it leaves leaves you with overstaffing and it leaves leaves you with overstaffing and it leaves you with functions in the overstaffing and it leaves you with functions in the overstaffing and it leaves you with functions in the wrong places. So, a couple you with functions in the wrong places. So, a couple you with functions in the wrong places. So, a couple of examples, uh, duplicate a wrong places.

So, a couple of examples, uh, duplicate a wrong places. So, a couple of examples, uh, duplicate a functions. Brad mentioned of examples, uh, duplicate a functions. Brad mentioned of examples, uh, duplicate a functions. Brad mentioned 27 cios. So if you had functions. Brad mentioned 27 cios. So if you had functions. Brad mentioned 27 cios. So if you had kept going with Brad, he 27 cios. So if you had kept going with Brad, he 27 cios.

So if you had kept going with Brad, he probably he would talk kept going with Brad, he probably he would talk kept going with Brad, he probably he would talk about the Communications probably he would talk about the Communications probably he would talk about the Communications office. I think you've got about the Communications office. I think you've got about the Communications office. I think you've got 40 40, distinct office.

I think you've got 40 40, distinct office. I think you've got 40 40, distinct Communications offices. and 40 40, distinct Communications offices. and 40 40, distinct Communications offices. and and HHS, right? Yeah.

Like it's not like anyone healthy, this is not Not the Like it's not like anyone healthy, this is not Not the Like it's not like anyone healthy, this is not Not the employees There many, many healthy, this is not Not the employees There many, many healthy, this is not Not the employees There many, many hardworking well-meaning employees There many, many hardworking well-meaning employees There many, many hardworking well-meaning people who, who took these hardworking well-meaning people who,

who took these hardworking well-meaning people who, who took these jobs these these jobs were people who, who took these jobs these these jobs were people who, who took these jobs these these jobs were out there, they applied for jobs these these jobs were out there, they applied for jobs these these jobs were out there, they applied for them.

They took them, out there, they applied for them. They took them, out there, they applied for them. They took them, They're doing, what's their them. They took them, They're doing, what's their them.

They took them, They're doing, what's their It's just that they're They're doing, what's their It's just that they're They're doing, what's their It's just that they're duplicating the effort of It's just that they're duplicating the effort of It's just that they're duplicating the effort of 40 offices. So you've got duplicating the effort of 40 offices. So you've got duplicating the effort of 40 offices. So you've got that you've got 40 offices.

So you've got that you've got 40 offices.

So you've got that you've got overstaffing a good example that you've got overstaffing a good example that you've got overstaffing a good example of over Staffing would be overstaffing a good example of over Staffing would be overstaffing a good example of over Staffing would be the IRS has got 1,400 people of over Staffing would be the IRS has got 1,400 people of over Staffing would be the IRS has got 1,400 people who are dedicated to the IRS has got 1,400 people who are dedicated to the IRS has got 1,400 people who are dedicated to provisioning.

laptops and who are dedicated to provisioning. laptops and who are dedicated to provisioning. laptops and cell phones. So if you provisioning. laptops and cell phones. So if you provisioning. laptops and cell phones. So if you join the IRS you get a cell phones. So if you join the IRS you get a cell phones.

So if you join the IRS you get a laptop and a cell phone you join the IRS you get a laptop and a cell phone you join the IRS you get a laptop and a cell phone you have provisioned. So if laptop and a cell phone you have provisioned. So if laptop and a cell phone you have provisioned. So if each of those IRS officers have provisioned. So if each of those IRS officers have provisioned.

So if each of those IRS officers or employees provisioned each of those IRS officers or employees provisioned each of those IRS officers or employees provisioned 2 employees per day, you or employees provisioned 2 employees per day, you or employees provisioned 2 employees per day, you could provision the entire 2 employees per day, you could provision the entire 2 employees per day, you could provision the entire IRS.

in a little more could provision the entire IRS. in a little more could provision the entire IRS. in a little more than a month. So, IRS. in a little more than a month. So, IRS. in a little more than a month. So, 12 times a year, you have than a month. So, 12 times a year, you have than a month.

So, 12 times a year, you have 1400 people who whose only 12 times a year, you have 1400 people who whose only 12 times a year, you have 1400 people who whose only job it is to give the 1400 people who whose only job it is to give the 1400 people who whose only job it is to give the laptop and the phone, job it is to give the laptop and the phone, job it is to give the laptop and the phone, right? The whole IRS could laptop and the phone, right?

The whole IRS could laptop and the phone, right? The whole IRS could be handled once a month so right? The whole IRS could be handled once a month so right?

The whole IRS could be handled once a month so that doesn't that doesn't be handled once a month so that doesn't that doesn't be handled once a month so that doesn't that doesn't make any sense and president that doesn't that doesn't make any sense and president that doesn't that doesn't make any sense and president Trump's been very clear, make any sense and president Trump's been very clear, make any sense and president Trump's been very clear, it's scalpel will not hatch Trump's been very clear, it's scalpel will not hatch Trump's been very clear, it's scalpel will not hatch it and that's the way.

it's scalpel will not hatch it and that's the way. it's scalpel will not hatch it and that's the way. It's it's getting done. and it and that's the way. It's it's getting done. and it and that's the way. It's it's getting done. and then once those decisions It's it's getting done. and then once those decisions It's it's getting done.

and then once those decisions are made, there's a very then once those decisions are made, there's a very then once those decisions are made, there's a very heavy focus on. Being. are made, there's a very heavy focus on. Being. are made, there's a very heavy focus on. Being. generous being. caring heavy focus on. Being. generous being. caring heavy focus on. Being. generous being. caring being compassionate. and generous being.

caring being compassionate. and generous being. caring being compassionate. and treating everyone with being compassionate. and treating everyone with being compassionate. and treating everyone with dignity and respect. And and treating everyone with dignity and respect. And and treating everyone with dignity and respect. And and if you look at how people dignity and respect. And and if you look at how people dignity and respect.

And and if you look at how people have started to leave the if you look at how people have started to leave the if you look at how people have started to leave the government it is largely have started to leave the government it is largely have started to leave the government it is largely through voluntary means government it is largely through voluntary means government it is largely through voluntary means there's a voluntary through voluntary means there's a voluntary through voluntary means there's a voluntary retirement.

there's voluntary there's a voluntary retirement. there's voluntary there's a voluntary retirement. there's voluntary separation payments. we put retirement. there's voluntary separation payments. we put retirement. there's voluntary separation payments. we put in place, deferred separation payments. we put in place, deferred separation payments.

we put in place, deferred resignation the 8-month in place, deferred resignation the 8-month in place, deferred resignation the 8-month severance program. So resignation the 8-month severance program. So resignation the 8-month severance program. So there's a very heavy bias severance program. So there's a very heavy bias severance program.

So there's a very heavy bias towards programs that there's a very heavy bias towards programs that there's a very heavy bias towards programs that A long data that are towards programs that A long data that are towards programs that A long data that are generous that allow people A long data that are generous that allow people A long data that are generous that allow people to exit and go and get a generous that allow people to exit and go and get a generous that allow people to exit and go and get a new job in the private to exit and go and get a new job in the private to exit and go and get a new job in the private sector.

and you, you've new job in the private sector. and you, you've new job in the private sector. and you, you've heard a lot of sector. and you, you've heard a lot of sector. and you, you've heard a lot of Me a lot of news about. heard a lot of Me a lot of news about. heard a lot of Me a lot of news about. riffs about people getting Me a lot of news about. riffs about people getting Me a lot of news about. riffs about people getting fired.

at at this moment riffs about people getting fired. at at this moment riffs about people getting fired. at at this moment in time. Uh, less than fired. at at this moment in time. Uh, less than fired. at at this moment in time. Uh, less than 0. 15 not 1. 5 less than in time. Uh, less than 0. 15 not 1. 5 less than in time.

so, so they've selected if they're it, it is basically almost they've selected if they're it, it is basically almost they've selected if they're it, it is basically almost no 1's gotten fired. it, it is basically almost no 1's gotten fired. it, it is basically almost no 1's gotten fired. that's what we're saying. no 1's gotten fired. that's what we're saying. no 1's gotten fired. that's what we're saying. Tom crash.

uh, working at that's what we're saying. Tom crash. uh, working at that's what we're saying. Tom crash. uh, working at Treasury. you are. having Tom crash. uh, working at Treasury. you are. having Tom crash. uh, working at Treasury. you are. having access to the payment Treasury. you are. having access to the payment Treasury. you are.

having access to the payment system oversees all the access to the payment system oversees all the access to the payment system oversees all the outgoing payments. system oversees all the outgoing payments. system oversees all the outgoing payments. essentially those payments outgoing payments. essentially those payments outgoing payments. essentially those payments were going places.
