Trump’s Government Efficiency Blitz Slashes Waste, Sends FDA Packing
President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is cleaning house, and the bureaucrats are fuming. The latest move? Shutting down bloated FDA offices across the country and saving taxpayers a cool $468 million.
DOGE announced on March 5 that 748 federal property leases have been terminated, cutting over 9.5 million square feet of unnecessary office space. That includes 30 FDA sites across 22 states, slashing $29.61 million in lease costs alone.
This is just the latest move in Trump’s America First efficiency drive—a massive operation aimed at eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse across the federal government.
FDA Bureaucrats Shown the Door
The FDA, long known for overreach and corruption, is one of the biggest losers in Trump’s cost-cutting blitz. With leases axed in California, Florida, Wisconsin, Texas, and beyond, bureaucrats will no longer be lounging in overpriced office spaces while pushing regulations that kill American innovation.
Meanwhile, Trump’s executive order on Feb. 26 put every agency on notice—review all spending, find the waste, and cut it. That means everything from phony grants to inflated government salaries is now under the microscope.
DOGE has already racked up an eye-popping $105 billion in savings, which translates to $652 back in the pocket of every American taxpayer. This is what real government accountability looks like.
Big Changes at the FDA—And The Left Is Losing It
The FDA, which has spent years shilling for Big Pharma, is now under new leadership that won’t play by the old rules. Acting Commissioner Dr. Sara Brenner has taken over, but the real shake-up is coming when Dr. Marty Makary—a Johns Hopkins surgeon who’s been a loud critic of the FDA’s corruption—takes the helm.
Adding to the left’s meltdown, Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has vowed to dismantle the revolving door between Big Government and Big Pharma. Kennedy’s plan? Expose conflicts of interest, force transparency, and make sure unelected bureaucrats don’t control the health of millions of Americans.
“We will remove conflicts of interest… and balance them with other stakeholders,” Kennedy said. “We will make our data so transparent people won’t even have to file FOIA requests.”
Imagine that—a government that actually tells the truth. No wonder the establishment is terrified.
The Bottom Line: Trump Is Draining the Swamp—For Real This Time
For decades, Washington bureaucrats have wasted billions of taxpayer dollars on useless offices, pointless grants, and bloated agencies that serve special interests instead of the American people.
Now, Trump’s second-term agenda is coming in like a wrecking ball—cutting waste, shutting down fraud, and forcing the government to actually work for the people.
And this is just the beginning.
