🧵 THREAD: Ahead of @DOGE_GSA 's 65 billion re-negotiation with the big contracting companies, I took a quick look at their awards.
First up: Ernst & Young. Uncle Sam cut them a $9 million check for—wait for it—a "Supply Chain Funds Reimbursement Administrator."
Forget STEM, folks—federal consulting is the real money printer! 🤑
Award: CONT_AWD_273FCC24F0052_2700_47QRAD19DU201_4732
@DOGE_GSA 🚨 HUD also gave Ernst & Young $838,195 to “improve its strategic approach” for... its own initiatives.
Translation: Nearly a million bucks to shuffle paperwork, check some boxes, and make sure they comply with policies they wrote themselves.
@DOGE_GSA The Export-Import Bank of the United States just handed Ernst & Young a cool $251,774 for… drumroll please… a "Sub-Saharan Africa Mandate."
That’s right—your tax dollars went to a New York accounting firm to… what? Audit the vibes of African trade deals?
🚀✨ NASA’s mission: Explore the cosmos… and shower Ernst & Young with taxpayer cash for its "annual" financial statement.
Plot twist—it’s not just one annual payout. It’s multiple. Because apparently, even NASA’s budget audits have sequels.
Why colonize Mars when it's way more profitable to audit space budgets!
@DOGE_GSA 💰 Booz Allen’s IRS payday: $95M here, $68M there, throw in a few $20M chunks for fun—because who’s counting?
All for Enterprise Case Management Solution Integration Services. Aka, making the IRS' paperwork slightly less painful?
@DOGE_GSA I can't find the actual award ID, but there's a FPDS entry for "PHNSY 5G GUAM WIRELESS NETWORK INSTALLATION" for Booz-Allen.
🚨 Deloitte secured a $36.3M bag for the Vietnam Low Emission Energy Program II (V-LEEP II).
Translation: Uncle Sam wired millions to an Arlington consulting firm to "help" Vietnam lower emissions—because apparently, the best way to fight climate change is powerpoints from consultants 8,000 miles away. 🌍💰
@DOGE_GSA 🚨 Accenture just landed $2.6 MILLION to manage… wild horses and burros. 🐎💰
That’s right—somehow, the best way to track free-roaming mustangs isn’t ranchers or conservationists but a giant federal IT contract.
@DOGE_GSA I'm gonna take a break, but this is only the tip of the iceberg. I expect @DOGE_GSA has tons to work with!
@DOGE_GSA . @awsalebadi found laundry detergent. No wonder Going to have to figure out how to replicate this search. 👀
