s us about Israel is that the CIA and Israeli intelligence, I guess they did a lot of work together, which kind of made sense. Somebody said that in the Middle East at that time the Soviet Union had a lot of control over the Arab countries, and the only non-Soviet Union controlled entity was Israel. So we had a tight relationship with them with intelligence. But there's no indication that Israel h…

So here's my take. Do you remember my prediction about the JFK files? What were my predictions? My prediction was there'd be nothing new. There's a little bit new, people saying that the CIA was out of control, but we kind of knew that. I mean I feel like we knew that, right? I knew it. We knew that Kennedy wanted to get rid of the CIA. So that's not really new.
So you remember that allegedly Trump said that if you saw what I saw you would not have released the JFK files. Is there anything in these documents that would have scared Trump and told him not to release them? Answer: no. So do you believe that there's more documents that maybe we've yet to see? That's the good stuff. Or do you think that the good stuff was simply removed and we're just given a bunch of not interesting stuff to just keep us diverted and make us think we saw something? Yeah, I think it's the dumbest question in the world. Because if it's true, if it's true that there was something horrible in the files, wouldn't the most obvious thing to do just remove those few documents and then try to sell the rest as complete? It's the most obvious thing you would do if you were in that situation and there was something you really wanted to cover up. Would you say, well I'm not going to release anything, because then you look pretty guilty? Or would you say here's 880,000 pages, is anything left out? No, no, it's all in there. Totally believe us. Trust us. It's all in there.
And I also think, what are the odds that if it were that damning that it would be kept in a file? Do you believe that somebody would have taken a file that was so damning it would have changed the entire nature of our understanding of America into something terrible, and it would just be a document and it would just be in a file somewhere? That so stretches the imagination. Now there wasn't any damning document that they kept in a file just in case somebody wanted it. No.
Anyway, DOGE has discovered $4.7 trillion that the Treasury Department didn't put any tracking codes on, meaning that there was no way to audit or to find out after the fact where $4.7 trillion went.

There was no way to find out. Now my bigger question is, since this seems to be the case with all the government agencies, I think USAID, you couldn't really tell where the money was going, partly because it was going to this vast web of NGOs, but shouldn't there have been, and didn't you kind of think that the government was auditing itself as a routine basis? Didn't you assume that the governmen…
