In a bombshell interview with Fox’s Jesse Waters, Department of Government Efficiency head Elon Musk revealed that the fraudsters exposed by the department’s investigations will soon be criminally charged for their actions. This announcement is a significant win for conservatives who’ve long wondered when these unscrupulous criminals will be brought to justice.
For context, the president gave DOGE an expansive mandate to eliminate fraud, waste, and corruption within the federal government. Under Musk’s leadership, DOGE has announced several high-profile fraud busts, but there have been no prosecutions until now.
Such was shown when Musk sat down with FNC’s Jesse Waters in a bombastic May 1, 2025, interview. Waters began, “So the agencies are hiding money from you. They’re sending it to the Taliban. They have loaded weapons in the department buildings at the Institute of Peace.”
Continuing his outraged summary, the FNC host delivered an insightful question. He asked, “So this is a cover-up. When you guys roll in this one, yes, they cover up.” Elon Musk confirmed the criminal actions, interjecting, saying, “They deleted a vast amount of financial information. That’s really a definition of a cover-up.” Angered by this information, Waters asked, “Isn’t it illegal to delete evidence?”
Responding confidently, a member of the DOGE team said, “It is. It’s certainly illegal to delete accounting records that Congress would certainly want to know where the congressionally appropriated funds are going, from taxpayers.”
Asking another question. Waters delved into the scope of the prosecutions. He said, “When you catch
them going Hillary style on their computers, do you refer this to the Department of Justice?” The DOGE genius answered confidently, “In this case, we did refer the evidence in the accounting example to the FBI and DOJ. We were proud to do that. So yes, we did.”
In the comments under a clip of the interview posted to X, conservatives chimed in to decry the rampant fraud and thank Musk for fighting the deep state. One such comment read, “Thanks for exposing these people who continue to steal the people’s tax dollars. This isn’t just waste—it’s organized theft. SHUT. IT. ALL. DOWN. America thanks you, Elon!”

Continuing the praise for Musk, another user wrote, “Another great thing to hear about! Elon and Big Balls getting things done!👏 Maybe if they rebranded as DOGE-13 the civilian Left would stop fighting against it so much. The left politicians have to fight it because most of the fraud will tie back to their friends & voters.”
Justifiably angered by the actions of the U.S Institute of Peace, one user described how this debacle proves DOGE is vital to saving America. The account declared, “The U.S. Institute of Peace debacle proves exactly why DOGE’s mission matters. We’re talking about federal funds being used to barricade doors, destroy security systems, and orchestrate flyer campaigns instructing staff to obstruct lawful oversight – all while taxpayers foot the bill.”
Watch the stunning revelation here:
Concluding the same reply, the user declared, “The February 19 executive order demanding bureaucratic accountability wasn’t a suggestion. When career bureaucrats think they’re above presidential authority and basic financial transparency, referrals become necessary. Let’s see if the DOJ actually follows through this time instead of protecting DC’s permanent unaccountable class.”
