‘Mississippi Musk’ Finds $400 Million in State Government Waste

 While one in five Mississippians lives below the poverty line.

“He will detail all this waste in an 800-page report that will show, among other things, that “Medicaid is a major issue, in that tens of millions of dollars in subsidies are going to income-ineligible Mississippians.” - State Auditor
Shad White
”Even worse, “one state agency was spending nearly $6,000 each on televisions, which the similarly bloated feds pay about $2,000 for similar tech.”
“White remarked: “In the last few weeks, we’ve jokingly started calling ourselves MOGE, the Mississippi Office of Government Efficiency, like Elon Musk’s DOGE. We approach our work with the same attention to every penny as DOGE, and I’m happy to be Mississippi’s Musk.” Indeed. Every state should have a Musk, and a DOGE. Just imagine what COGE, the California Office of Government Efficiency, or NYOGE, the New York Office of Government Efficiency, would uncover.”
“They were handing out grants for social justice yoga for preschoolers. Just crazy stuff.”
“Even in Mississippi, the leftist forces of indoctrination have been hard at work, with “$11 million in taxpayer funding has gone to DEI at colleges alone.”
“And while one in five Mississippians lives below the poverty line, White says that “we found dollars supposed to be going to poor folks going to pay for sponsorship of beauty pageants.”
