According to DOGE, Family Endeavors saw its \u201ccash and portfolio of investments grew from $8.3M in 2020 to $520.4M in 2023\u201d with the bulk of the funding coming from federal sources.<\/p>\n<p>Since March 2024, Family Endeavors has reportedly received $18 million per month to operate a facility intended to house unaccompanied migrant children. However, despite the facility remaining empty with no residents, the federal funds continued to be disbursed, according to DOGE\u2019s statement. \u201cWith national licensed facility occupancy now below 20%, HHS was able to terminate this contract, saving taxpayers over $215M annually,\u201d states the post on X, which also tags Washington D.C. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screenshot-2025-02-27-at-10.43.33%E2%80%AFAM.png\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1147301712\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Photos of the facility reveal a fleet of unused golf carts and an untouched cafeteria-style space, highlighting the waste of resources at a time when the nation was facing a historic surge of illegal immigrants and migrants entering through expanded asylum programs under the Biden-Harris administration. Since President Donald Trump reversed or scaled back many of these asylum programs, illegal border crossings have dropped to their lowest levels in years.<\/p>\n<p>Endeavors\u2019 contract marks at least the second politically connected discovery made by DOGE. Earlier this month, the department revealed that a group linked to failed Democratic candidate Stacey Abrams had received at least $2 billion in grants from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.<\/p>\n<p>According to an EPA press release, Abrams\u2019 \u201ccommunity investment group\u201d was funded by the Biden-Harris administration to install heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, solar panels, home battery systems, EV chargers, and weatherization upgrades, despite the group reporting just $100 in revenue in 2023.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\">\n<div id=\"ld-1556-8286\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) revealed on Wednesday that it has discovered evidence showing a high-ranking Biden aide allegedly receiving millions in federal funds for&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31201,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31200","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
