join me north carolina congressman house budget committee member tim moore good to see you, thank youeaction to president trump and elon musk class like? >> i think the president nailed it exactly correct can you imagine what of the smartest individuals in our country's history very successful has done so much for space exploration and electric vehicles and is volunteering his time to come in and help the government approve fnc's can you name a ceo, corporation from large to small that would not be thrilled to have someone of this caliber common and offer to assist. it shows the president's commitment to try to identify the best talent out there to turn this country around. i think it finally made it clear about the special advisor i'm applauding his efforts with the president. maria: it's pretty incredible the numbers are we are seeing now as doge has identified the wasteful spending how does this happen you have automatic checks going out? >> that's one of the questions i have a new member of congress in one of the questions i'm asking how did this mess happened in the first place i
