Rand Paul’s Festivus Report

Check out the stuff on which the government wastes our taxpayer dollar. Over One trillion dollars’ worth

In his 11th annual Festivus Report, inspired by the Seinfeld holiday, Paul spotlights examples like $5.2 million for cocaine-dosed beagle dogs, $13.8 million for tick-infested puppies, and $54 million for Wuhan lab research using gain-of-function so we can have another pandemic.

We also funded alcoholic teenage ferrets, and Monkey Price is Right.

Interestingly enough, we’re still funding Eco-Health Alliance and Wuhan gain of function research as well as Fauci’s beagle programs (cocaine). Covid relief funds are still being disseminated to the tune of $200 billion.

Additionally:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) spent more than $1,079,360 teaching teenage ferrets to binge drink alcohol this year, according to Paul’s report. 

The report found that the National Science Foundation (NSF) shelled out $497,200 on a “Video Game Challenge” for kids. The NSF and other federal agencies also paid $14,643,280 to make monkeys play a video game in the style of the “Price Is Right,” the report states.

The whole report can be found here.

  3. Stewardship. I don’t think the word means what they think it means. These fools associated with this waste and fraud should be physically beaten- at the very least.

  4. That’s the silly stuff to use up the budget so it doesn’t shrink.

    Now lets list the other worthless stuff: CIA, FBI, Dept. of Ed, and the other over 200 Federal agencies. Scrap them all, end lobbying (all sorts), term limits, no congressional pensions, Congress gets VA for their medical, and start over from the original Constitution and Bill of Rights. Try to do better this time.

  5. Steve: Nice dream, but do you really think ANY of that will happen?

    You gotta be realistic if your gonna change anything. Else you just waste your time dreaming and never accomplish anything.

    The USAID scam may be gone but the grift continues.
