A federal judge ruled that the White House budget office broke the law when it took down a public website showing Congressional spending data.
Why would they pull it in the first place? Let’s be real, transparency wasn’t working in their favor.
– The public was using the site to uncover misleading and outright fraudulent claims coming from DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency).
– Reporters were catching inconsistencies between what was promised and what was actually being spent.
– And the administration was under growing pressure to explain shady budget decisions, like reallocated funds and disappearing oversight tools.
Americans deserve to know where their money is going. Hiding spending data doesn’t protect national security, it protects corruption.
