@SJWarrior2020 @wadadli_albany @elonmusk @matt_vanswol @DOGE @USTreasury Maybe you have a problem with understanding - it was stated that they DIDNT have a payment code or an audit code - nothing said was BS except your reply

@RepRaskin You have always been a fool Jamie. Do you honestly believe that Elon’s crew which have been designated to audit government agencies really have the time and interest in reviewing personal information, unless it’s directly related to their tasks?

The President of the United States does have significant oversight capabilities over federal agencies, including the Department of the Treasury. Here's how this generally works: - **Executive Oversight**: As the head of the executive branch, the President can direct the Treasury Secretary to conduct internal reviews or audits. This is part of the President's administrative control over executive departments. - **Office of Management and Budget (OMB)**: The OMB, under the President's direction, oversees the performance, budget, and operations of federal agencies, including the Treasury. The OMB can initiate reviews or audits. - **Inspector General**: Each federal department, including the Treasury, has an Inspector General (IG), who is responsible for internal audits and investigations to combat waste, fraud, and abuse. While the IG operates with a degree of independence, they are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, and their work can be influenced by presidential priorities. - **Congressional Involvement**: Although not directly under presidential control, Congress can initiate audits through the Government Accountability Office (GAO), which can look into Treasury operations. The President can engage with Congress to suggest or support such actions. However, there are limits: - **Legal and Statutory Boundaries**: The President's authority to directly "audit" in the formal sense might be limited by laws that protect the independence of certain functions within the Treasury, like the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), which has specific oversight mechanisms. - **Political Checks and Balances**: Congressional oversight committees and the judiciary can check presidential overreach. In summary, while the President doesn't have the authority to conduct an audit in the same way an independent auditing body might, they can certainly influence, initiate, or request reviews and audits through various channels within the executive branch. If there's a specific aspect you're curious about, like IRS audits or financial policy reviews, the process might differ.
