Weather alert! Multiple tornados are moving through Southern Illinois. Seek shelter if near Coffeen IL. Be aware in Champaign IL and Terra Haute over the next hour.

America is a country of winners. We love a spectacle.

We use AI powered extreme weather app @Storm_GPS. Here is the weather outlook in DC for UFC Freedom 250. There may be an hour or so delays but these fights should be able to go on. Good luck fighters! @ufc @WhiteHouse

The Florida DOGE (FL DOGE) program is one of the most underrated programs and consequential programs in history. Here's how it works: CFO @GovGoneWild identifies high level waste via the FAFO audits. FL DOGE finds the individual waste and helps to remove, fix, or claw it back in partnership with the State/CFO. These are real dollars for the Counties or State. It's essentially free money for the government that is lost or stalled; no new regulation or legislation necessary. That is POWERFUL in government. FL DOGE was created under @GovRonDeSantis executive order (EO 24-44). The stated goals: (1) utilizing advanced technology, such as artificial intelligence, as part of ongoing efforts to identify and eliminate unnecessary spending, programs, or contracts (2) identifying any pending or funded federal grant awards that are inconsistent with the policies of this State and should be returned to the American taxpayer in furtherance of the President's DOGE efforts (3) recommending administrative or legislative reforms to promote efficiency, maximize productivity, and eliminate waste in state and local government, including recommendations to leverage modern technology and to eliminate the duplication of services, reduce fees, and cut overhead. I've been given permission to announce that there will be major findings released soon by @DOGEFla. Here are some results that are forthcoming: - A county identified duplicate software spend/licenses; it was fixed and $1M was returned to the general fund IN A WEEK. - A county identified roughly $32M in inefficient spending in categories like Procurement and Contract administration; easily fixed saving $32M annually. - On a public contract a general contractor billed a county for nearly 700 days of elevated of Pre-Construction fees, despite the contract only allowing for 250 days. This cost taxpayers about $500,000 extra. - A county amusement project that contracted with an entity for roughly 40% higher than average market price for the project (6M vs 4.2M estimated) AND this was the largest contract that entity had ever received. Potential waste and bid rigging. Scaling this across Florida you can truly see hundreds of millions (maybe more) in ANNUAL efficiency opportunities; free taxpayer money that can be found and fixed using technology. There are implications here for the most important issues such as Property Tax reform, affordability, housing, insurance, and more. FL DOGE and FAFO will help keep Florida great for years to come.

Legend and Patriot @mariolopezviva on the repost. Be on the lookout for a big @usedgov event hosted by Mario Lopez coming your way soon!

Major severe weather hitting the Midwest tonight. Multiple tornado warnings. Here are the details and paths via AI severe weather app @Storm_GPS.

Tornados on the ground near Memphis TN and Southern IL. Seek shelter if near these areas and note the direction these are moving.

We need more DOGE.

AI is empowering local government!

Property tax cuts supported by FL DOGE findings 👏

Florida Republicans back @ByronDonalds because he's the Trump-endorsed conservative who will beat the Democrats and their liberal high tax agenda this November.

Agreed!

AI is here to stay. And here to help for those that know how to use it!

If you want property tax reform in Florida. Support FL DOGE. This is now a critical mission to find enough waste and inefficiency that can be reasonably fixed, avoiding local budget crunches and allowing for cuts.

There is definitely enough money in waste, fraud, and inefficiencies to make changes to property taxes. We re going to be releasing some FL DOGE findings soon. The details still need to be worked out but there’s good starting points for sure.

Fort Myers, Florida. While building and growth get all the attention in Florida, there is still natural beauty everywhere. A good balance of both is the future of Florida.

Yup that’s why @DigiBuildInc doing all the state DOGE and AI driven audit work is well positioned 💪

To the men & women in uniform who serve our country, thank you. To those who never came home. Thank you. I saw this tribute the other day about a kid who posted in 2013 but never came back. A few weeks before that, he retweeted Donald Trump. Never forget heroes like Jonam 🇺🇸

Federal DOGE is exposing waste but states are launching their own DOGE inspired task forces and commissions to tackle it locally. Over 25 states (FL, IA, OK, LA, TX, KS & more) have active programs. Here are 10 real opportunities for savings already identified or achieved: - Louisiana used DOGE-linked voter/residency data checks on Medicaid recipients and found $75 million/year being spent on non-residents. direct savings opportunity through better eligibility verification. - Oklahoma’s DOGE-OK identified $157 million in duplicative, underutilized, or excessive federal health grants that can be returned without cutting services. - GAO audit of 6 states (CA, GA, NY, PA, TN, TX) revealed $1.6 billion in potential overpayments/fraud from duplicate Medicaid/CHIP/APTC coverage across state lines in one year alone. - HHS OIG found states made an estimated $207.5 million in unallowable Medicaid capitation payments to managed care organizations for already-deceased enrollees (2021-2022 data); preventable with better data matching. - New Jersey’s Medicaid integrity efforts recoup roughly $100 million annually from fraud, overpayments, and wrongful payments (over $1 billion recovered in the last decade). - Colorado’s third party liability coordination delivers ~$20 million quarterly savings on commercial insurance claims and ~$250 million quarterly on Medicare coordination; scalable nationwide. - Kansas Medicaid audits identified over $16 million in provider overpayments plus $193 million paid to managed care for beneficiaries who used zero services for 12 months. - Florida’s state DOGE task force is using AI to audit agencies and local governments while targeting elimination of 70 redundant boards/commissions for operational and spending efficiencies. - Oklahoma DOGE flagged $8.48 billion in statutory exempt purchases, $190 million in high risk purchase card transactions, and $3 billion in off-contract spending; prime targets for bulk buying and renegotiation savings. - State Medicaid Fraud Control Units (MFCUs) nationwide achieved $1.4 billion in recoveries in FY2024 alone (ROI of $3.46 recovered per $1 spent), showing proven returns from targeted fraud enforcement. States applying DOGE style reviews, data matching, AI audits, and procurement reforms are unlocking hundreds of millions to billions in verifiable savings; proving efficiency works at the state level too.

Florida has the most beautiful beaches in the world, no question.
