> just $55 billion in waste

"Just" lol. After a month.

Replace the fraud w/ waste if that makes you feel better about the audit.

I'm sure investigations will reveal fraud, it takes awhile to build a case.

But even if there is zero fraud (fat chance), gotta love the savings from waste cuts!

Dang, I was really excited to read about the $55 billion in fraud after you claimed that it has been "posted everywhere". :(

Please let me know when you find the evidence!

Also, I never said I dislike the audit. I do, however, dislike dishonest framing.

Again, we'll just say it's "waste" until investigations complete.

Glad I could frame it better for you so you can feel good about the savings.

Also glad to hear you like or are at least content with the audit, since you don't "dislike" it.

Yup. We'll see how it goes.
