Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) has already been blamed for numerous issues, such as the mystery illness spreading in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The fear mongering over gutting the ruling class is spiralling out of control.

In a subsequent interview with Fox News, Zelensky attempted to downplay the incident, insisting that he and Trump could still “reach an agreement” on Ukraine’s future, according to a report by Natural News. However, the fallout from the meeting has cast a shadow over U.S.-Ukraine relations, with Musk’s call for an audit adding fuel to the fire.
Since the onset of the conflict, the U.S. has sent over $100 billion in aid to Ukraine, including military equipment, humanitarian assistance and financial support. While the aid has been critical in bolstering Ukraine’s defense against Russian aggression, concerns about corruption and mismanagement have persisted.
Ivan Sascha Sheehan, a professor of public and international affairs at the University of Baltimore, highlighted the systemic issues plaguing Ukraine’s anti-corruption efforts. “Corruption in Ukraine runs deep,” Sheehan wrote in Stars and Stripes, “and at its core, ironically, lies the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU).” Established in 2016 as a condition for Western aid, NABU was intended to combat corruption but has since been accused of becoming a tool for political manipulation. –Natural News
