The results of the audit may not bode well for David Lebryk.
According to Elon Musk the payment approval officers were told to ALWAYS approve payments, even to fraudulent groups or terrorist organizations!
The @DOGE team discovered, among other things, that payment approval officers at Treasury were instructed always to approve payments, even to known fraudulent or terrorist groups.
They literally never denied a payment in their entire career.
Not even once. https://t.co/kInoGWdw4C
