Elon Musk is unelected and thus has no right to audit the IRS, says Paul Begala

Democrats and most media are wailing that Elon Musk is unelected and thus has no right to audit the finances of the IRS .

DOGE is the corrective, the counterbalance to an abusive and rogue Treasury Department , says Julian Zelizer .

Zelizer: Taxpayer money provides boatloads of welfare for government drones, and Catholic charities partner with government to accelerate illegal immigration and further enrich themselves in the process.

Erik and Todd Gregory : Big Blue is going to the mattresses to stop DOGE .

Gregory: Democrats shriek Nooooo ! -- do not apprehend anybody; maintain the status quo, and enable the highway robberies to continue as before.

In explaining their ameliorative (or perhaps palliative) reform efforts to the public, it is vital that their radical transparency is exposing government graft -- outright theft of taxpayer money.
