Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) just keeps digging, and boy howdy, are they ever drawing some attention, both positive and negative. One person who is looking at DOGE’s efforts with a smile is Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA), who sang the DOGE’s praises on Fox News’ “Life, Liberty & Levin” show with host Mark Levin on Saturday.

The Speaker said:
Now Elon, he has cracked the code. He is on the inside of the belly of the beast, Mark, and he is unveiling, he is revealing, all of these things that we knew intuitively were happening, but we didn’t have the evidence. This is a game-changer. It is truly revolutionary. And we’re going to restore, ultimately, through this process, the federal government to the original intent of the Founders, and that’s what has the big governments, (sic) socialist liberals, the Democrat Party, apoplectic, because they’re afraid of what the final result of this is going to be. It’s very exciting for the people.
It’s exciting, all right; this second Trump administration, if this plays out as we hope, may accomplish what Barack Obama claimed to want but was unable to do – to fundamentally transform the federal government. Of course, Obama would have transformed it for the worse; Trump is making things better. If he achieves nothing more than swinging a war-axe at wasteful government spending, he will be able to claim success for his second term.
But let’s focus for a moment on the Speaker’s remark that the administration and Congress are going to “…restore, ultimately, through this process, the federal government to the original intent of the Founders…” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
