Transcript

00:00:00.000 I'm excited for the future.
00:00:09.000 President Trump was elected with a decisive margin, a mandate not just for incremental change, but sweeping change.
00:00:16.000 And I'm looking forward to being a part of it.
00:00:18.000 He's changed history with his creativity and how he's thinking about this new administration, his second term.
00:00:23.000 And one of the things that we're doing differently is the, as you've probably heard, the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, which I'll have the honor of co-leading with Elon Musk.
00:00:35.000 This is, I think, the Manhattan Project of our time, hopefully.
00:00:39.000 We are going to take aim at the overgrown fourth branch of government and finally restore self-governance in America again, where the people we elect to run the government once again become the ones who actually run the government.
00:00:51.000 And in the process, take care of massive cost overruns, massive federal spending in a way that's really never happened in our generation.
00:01:00.000 Politicians have talked about it for a long time.
00:01:02.000 It hasn't happened.
00:01:03.000 And that's why we're doing things differently.
00:01:05.000 Elon and I, we're not politicians.
00:01:07.000 We're businessmen.
00:01:08.000 We're not going in as government bureaucrats or even employees.
00:01:12.000 We're outside volunteers.
00:01:14.000 And perhaps most importantly, we have set a finite expiry date on this project.
00:01:18.000 We don't want DOGE to exist forever.
00:01:20.000 To the contrary, we want this to end and the need for it to end by July 4th, 2026, which is appropriate.
00:01:28.000 That's the 250th anniversary of the American Declaration of Independence.
00:01:32.000 And I can think of no better gift to this country than a downsized government that would make our founding fathers proud.
00:01:40.000 And that's what we hope to help play a role in delivering for them.
00:01:43.000 I'm proud of President Trump for delivering this victory.
00:01:45.000 I'm proud of the American people for voting for the kind of change that we require to save this republic.
00:01:52.000 As part of that process, I'm now all in.
00:01:54.000 I'm focused on making sure that we actually accomplish the goal rather than just talking about it.
00:02:00.000 So to that end, for the next little bit, I'm going to put a pause on the weekly truth podcasts.
00:02:05.000 I've enjoyed doing it this year.
00:02:06.000 It's been incredibly fun and entertaining.
00:02:08.000 I've learned from a lot of the guests and I've enjoyed communicating with all of you.
00:02:11.000 We're going to put that on pause for a little bit.
00:02:13.000 And as you may have heard, Elon and I are going to start a separate track of doge casts that explain exactly what we're doing to the public to provide transparency in what is a once-in-a-generation project.
00:02:24.000 We want to bring the public along with us to lift the curtain, to take us behind the scenes of what actually that waste, fraud, and abuse in government looks like.
00:02:32.000 However bad you think it is, it's probably worse.
00:02:35.000 But we don't want to do this to just expose the problem.
00:02:37.000 We want to do it to solve the problem.
00:02:40.000 So stay tuned.
00:02:40.000 We're going to have more information about when those doge casts are going to begin.
00:02:44.000 We are neck deep right now and transitioning to the new dawn on January 20th.
00:02:49.000 But in the meantime, I thank all of you for your journey this year, for joining us.
00:02:54.000 I've loved doing the truth and we're just going to put it on pause for a little bit to hopefully embark on this new chapter of Saving Our Republic.
