Summary

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt struggled to justify claims of government fraud during a press briefing, despite weeks of investigations by Elon Musk’s DOGE.

Instead of proving fraud, Leavitt pointed to contracts that simply conflicted with Trump’s policies. When pressed by reporters, she claimed wasteful spending was fraudulent without offering evidence.

Meanwhile, Musk’s team has accessed sensitive data from multiple federal agencies, raising concerns about privacy and oversight.
