Dope1: ...were not marked correctly by the US Treasury.

Umm, no.

Quoting your text: "...payments were processed with an optional, often blank identification code...

If a field is "optional," not filling the field does not mean it was "not marked correctly."

Plus, what does "often" mean there? Fifty times, 5,000 times, 50,000 times? Surely, president Musk must know the exact number and the fact that he's neglecting to reveal that number is suspicious and certainly not "transparent."

BTW, the entire FY 2024 federal budget was $6.75 trillion. So nearly 70 percent of federal spending, according to president Musk, was "nearly impossible to track"?

Some people are so friggin' gullible.
