あらすじ・解説
- In this week's podcast, our quote of the week is an old one from economist Thomas Sowell, who points out the shocking loss of value inflation can have on money you try and save.
- In our stupidest thing I've heard all week segment, we'll tell you what the US Agency for International Development (USAID) spent $400,000 taxpayer dollars on.
- We'll play a clip of talk show host Joe Pags itemizing even more wasteful spending by that same agency.
- We'll pay an old clip of Senator Elizabeth Warren demanding that the Bush administration make public how Federal agencies are spending taxpayer dollars.
- We'll tell you how US tax dollars are being funneled & laundered through a variety of non-profit organizations to fund anti-gun groups.
- We'll tell you how a US Treasury commodity code payment tracking system is being ignored, making it almost impossible to audit and analyze Federal agency purchases. Was that last $12,000 check for office supplies or ammunition? Shouldn't the payment system be able to answer that simple question?
- We'll play a talk show host Jon Stewart clip lambasting Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his childish press conference theatrics.
- We'll tell you how much money people have donated to the legal defense fund of Luigi Mangione, the killer of the United Healthcare CEO.
- We'll tell you how an armed private pilot prevented the hijacking of a commuter airline passenger plane.
- Our taxpayer relief shot comes to us from Texas, where a barber shop employee shoots and kills an armed robber inside the shop.
