Every so often DOGE uncovers a contract that leaves me more impressed with the frugality of the federal government. $700 a head for Executive coaching is honestly a pretty solid price.
Glad they found it and that he’ll be held accountable, but this isn’t evidence of USAID being a hotbed of fraud unless the $550 million in contracts were being awarded to a fake company. This is just run-of-the-mill abuse of public service. He’d do quite well in the private sector with this type of initiative.
