- 0:00Speaker 1: Elon, if you could get up and explain where you are,
- 0:03Speaker 1: how you're doing, and how much we're cutting, and it's
- 0:05Speaker 1: an honor to have you. He's been a tremendously successful guy,
- 0:10Speaker 1: is really working so hard.
- 0:12Speaker 2: And he's got businesses to run.
- 0:13Speaker 1: And in many ways they say how.
- 0:15Speaker 3: Do you do this?
- 0:16Speaker 1: And you know it's sacrificing a lot and take getting
- 0:21Speaker 1: a lot of praise, I'll tell you. But he's also
- 0:23Speaker 1: getting hit and we would expect that and that's the
- 0:27Speaker 1: way it works. So I'd like to have Elon Musk
- 0:31Speaker 1: please say.
- 0:31Speaker 2: A few words.
- 0:34Speaker 4: Thank you. Must President, Well, I should just pull myself
- 0:37Speaker 4: a hubble tech support here because.
- 0:40Speaker 3: This is actually.
- 0:43Speaker 4: As crazy as it sounds. That is almost a literal
- 0:47Speaker 4: description of the work that those team is doing.
- 0:49Speaker 3: Is helping picks the government computer systems.
- 0:52Speaker 2: Many of the systems are extremely old, they don't communicate
- 0:55Speaker 2: their amount of mistakes, and the systems the software doesn't work,
- 1:01Speaker 2: so we are actually text vote it's it's it's ironic.
- 1:05Speaker 3: But it's true.
- 1:07Speaker 4: The overall goal here with the dog team is to
- 1:10Speaker 4: help address the almost episode. We simply cannot sustain the
- 1:14Speaker 4: country two trillion dollar deaf seats. The interest rates, just
- 1:19Speaker 4: the interest on the natural debt now exceeds the Defense
- 1:23Speaker 4: department spending.
- 1:24Speaker 2: We spend a lot on the Defense department.
- 1:26Speaker 4: If we're spending like an over trillion.
- 1:28Speaker 3: Dollars on interest.
- 1:30Speaker 4: If this continues, the country will go become de facto bankrupt.
- 1:34Speaker 4: It's not an optional thing.
- 1:36Speaker 2: It is an essentral thing.
- 1:38Speaker 4: That's that's the reason I'm here and taking a lot
- 1:41Speaker 4: of plaque and getting a lot of death threats, by
- 1:43Speaker 4: the way, and I'd like to stuck them up, you know.
- 1:46Speaker 4: But if we don't do this, America.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Will go bankrupt.
- 1:50Speaker 4: That's why it has to be done. I'm confident at
- 1:54Speaker 4: this point knock on wood you know, knock on my
- 1:56Speaker 4: wooden heads. Going a lot of would have been that
- 2:02Speaker 4: we can actually find con trillion dollars in savings. That
- 2:06Speaker 4: would be a roughly fifteen percent of the seven trillion
- 2:08Speaker 4: dollar budget. And obviously that can only be done with
- 2:12Speaker 4: the support of everyone in this room. And I'd like
- 2:15Speaker 4: to thank everyone for your support. Thank you very much.
- 2:17Speaker 4: This can only be done with with with your support.
- 2:21Speaker 4: So this is really digence of support function for the
- 2:24Speaker 4: present and for the agencies and departments to help achieve
- 2:29Speaker 4: those savings into a fact we find fifteen percent in
- 2:34Speaker 4: reduction in prawn and waste, and we bring the receipts
- 2:39Speaker 4: so people say like, well, it's this reel. Just go
- 2:41Speaker 4: to those dug up. We line item by line on
- 2:44Speaker 4: we specify each item. So and and I should say,
- 2:48Speaker 4: we'll also we will make mistakes. We won't be perfect,
- 2:51Speaker 4: but when we make a mistake, we'll fix it pretty quickly.
- 2:56Speaker 4: So for example, with USAID, one of the things we
- 2:59Speaker 4: can that's certainly canceled very briefly was evolan prevention. I
- 3:03Speaker 4: think we all wanted the botle prevention, so we restored
- 3:05Speaker 4: the Evolu prevention immediately and there was no interruption.
- 3:11Speaker 3: But we do need to move quickly if we're to
- 3:14Speaker 3: achieve a trillion dollar deficit reduction and financially twenty twenty six,
- 3:21Speaker 3: it requires saving four billion dollars per day every day
- 3:25Speaker 3: from now through the inn of September. But we can
- 3:28Speaker 3: do it, and we will do it. Thank you,
