Alright, it is now 2020, and while others look ahead trying to predict what will happen this year, I will usher in this brand spanking New Year by spanking those who have wasted our hard-earned taxpayer dollars last year.
Now before I get into that, allow me to make a couple of predictions.
Liberals in congress will fail in their attempted coup against President Trump.
Liberals, while adhering to that failure, will raise more money for President Trump’s reelection campaign than they will raise for their own candidates, and before this new year become the year that was, President Trump will be reelected, the Senate will remain in Republican hands, and the House will flip to red.
Oh, it won’t be the end of liberal attempts to overthrow President Trump, or to overturn the 2016 election, and they, along with their partners in crime, the mainstream media, will continue to spread their propaganda to a diminishing voter bloc while wondering why more and more people are tuning them out.
I also predict that before the end of this year…
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will either leave the bench, or go full Weekend at Bernie’s on 
it, Prime Minister Netanyahu will be reelected in Israel, Iran will do something really, really stupid resulting in joint action from the U.S. and Israel, and abject waste in government of our taxpayer dollars will continue.
That brings me to just some of the most moronic spending our government has ever engaged in as I look back at 2019.
Let’s start with this. In 2019, the U.S. federal government spent $700,000 of our money trying to get FISH…addicted to nicotine.
I’m guessing that came to roughly $10 bucks for a pack of Marlboros, and $699,990 dollars trying to find a way to keep them lit under water.
Here’s my take on it. If nicotine is bad for you, and fish aren’t already addicted to it, why on Earth’s oceans, rivers, streams and lakes would we want to spend one thin dime on trying 
to GET them addicted to it? Seriously, if the feds were to reach any level of success in that endeavor, imagine how much of our money would then be needed trying to get those fish to stop smoking.
Fish however, weren’t the only members of the wildlife community our federal government tried to get addicted over the years. Back in 2011, $175,587 dollars was spent to discover that cocaine use led to risky sexual behavior in QUAIL in Kentucky.
In a related expenditure, the feds have spent $65 million of our taxpayer dollars for Pacific coastal salmon recovery to “reverse the declines of Pacific salmon and steelhead.”
Maybe if they just quit smoking…
Next up…Our federal government spent $16 million of our dollars to improve education, when we all know the best way for our government to improve our education system is to get the hell OUT of our education system. But they didn’t spend that $16 million on OUR education system…they spent it on trying to improve the education system in EGYPT.
Why? What did Egypt ever do to us to make our government want to ruin their system of education over there?
Oh, that’s not even the half of it when it came to educational spending in 2019, as our federal government also allotted $33 million to the purchase of sub-standard textbooks for schools in…AFGHANISTAN.
As far as we know, in both Egypt and in Afghanistan, 2+2 still equals 4, and even if our government doesn’t want to hold our own students to such lofty standards, why would they want to lower the bar of students in faraway places?
Of course, textbooks considered substandard to our federal government may actually show the correct answer of 4 to that particular math question, in which case those textbooks should damn well have been distributed to OUR students, rather than to those in Egypt and Afghanistan.
Perhaps further research on this one is called for.
Cheese. Our federal government, last year, spent $22 million of our taxpayer dollars on a 
local grant to subsidize the production of Sjenica Cheese…in SERBIA.
The goal of that bit of abject waste was to raise production standards of that certain cheese, in Serbia, so that it could be sold across Europe, and here in the United States. Given the fact that our own farmers in our own country make cheese, while struggling against burdensome regulations, it would seem that perhaps a better use of the money would have been to find a way to churn out that sort of cheese in Wisconsin so that our farmers could export it to Europe.
But this is the federal government we’re talking about, and rather than assisting our economy, and our farming community by producing a whole new cheese, they instead simply cut the old cheese.
In our country, our federal government is helping our dairy farmers by buying excess cheese, of which we have about 1.4 billion pounds, and doing God knows what with it, while at the same time, spending $22 million teaching Serbian dairy farmers how to produce MORE cheese.
Christ on a cracker that’s stupid.
Moving on…
Did you know that every new U.S. embassy around the world has an automatic, built-in 0.5 percent of their budget earmarked for the acquisition of art? Well, it’s true, and apparently, in 2019, we opened a new embassy in Mozambique. Because of that built-in art acquisition figure, our federal government spent roughly $84 thousand dollars, of our money, purchasing…from has-been folk singer Bob Dylan…a statue which is now on display in our Mozambique embassy.
No, it is not a statue OF Bob Dylan, it’s a statue BY Bob Dylan.
To be clear, Mozambique is just about THE poorest country on Earth, and ranks 180th out of 189 countries in the index of human development. Rather than spending our money buying the people of Mozambique some Serbian cheese, or sending to them some of our excess cheese, the malnourished, developmentally challenged and dirt poor people of Mozambique can now visit the United States embassy there, and marvel at a really weird statue we bought from a guy who sings through his nose.
What a wonderful thing we taxpayers have done for the down-trodden in Mozambique.
Next…
Here’s one that really leaves one wondering, what the hell? Better than $20 million of our taxpayer dollars from 2019 have been allocated to the communist government of Laos for the purpose of teaching the Laotian people the Laotion language.
This raises a couple of important questions. Considering that the Laotian government is a communist government, and therefore inherently corrupt, is there any reason at all to 
believe that even a penny of that money is being spent to teach Laotion to Laotians, and if the Laotians aren’t already speaking Laotian, what the hell are they speaking?
Not only that, but have you heard how some of our inner city urban kids speak? It probably sounds closer to Laotion than it does to English. Why don’t we just send our government indoctrinated, common core kids over there so they won’t make sense in two languages?
That seems like a better use of that slice of the budget to me.
So far, all of this seems crazy, but now I’ll embark on the bone-crushingly insane. There is an abandoned mental hospital, a Civil War era mental hospital that sits near Washington DC that our federal government, via the insane asylum known as congress, has been trying to turn into the new headquarters for the Department of Homeland Security since 2005.
The abandoned building sits on an unstable slope, and some sections of it are sinking into the unstable ground. Naturally, there are any number of regulations imposed by the federal government with regard to preserving or repurposing any historic building which include, 
but are not limited to environmental concerns, and maintaining the building’s original integrity. At this point, nobody seems willing to put into print exactly how much of our taxpayer money has been wasted on this project, but what has been floated is the notion that our federal government, with our taxpayer dollars, might just tear the old, sinking nut house down and start over from scratch, with an expected completion date of 2026, and at an overall cost of 2.1 BILLION dollars.
Bob Dylan created statue not included.
And finally, there’s this, and while in the grand scheme of things, $463 thousand bucks doesn’t seem like much when we’re talking about better than $50 billion of our wasted taxpayer dollars, our federal government did manage to scrape up nearly half a million dollars to pay for a study on the mating calls of the Panamanian frog.
Here’s the thing. What the government is spending our money on down there, is on trying to discover if there is any difference between the mating call of Panamanian frogs in urban areas, from the mating calls of Panamanian frogs that live in the forest.
To me, this seems like a taxpayer funded study of the difference between people who use 
Tinder to find a date, and those who go to farmersonly.com.
There are two basic questions that should have been asked before any money was used for this purpose. Are frogs in Panamanian cities mating? And are frogs in the Panamanian forest mating? Obviously, they are, as frogs in Panama live both in the cities, and in the forest, and if they weren’t mating one of those areas would be devoid of frogs. Now, having answered those pressing questions one should well wonder what in the hell difference it makes what mating calls are being employed, or in what dialect such booty calls are being made.
Here’s the way I see this one. If you take a bunch of city frogs, and send them to a country frog bar, there’s a very good chance that freaky, fetish frog frolics will ensue even if the Panamanian frogs are croaking in Laoation. I mean if Gwen Stefani, and Blake Shelton found a way to split the difference, I’m willing to bet frogs can find a way to manage without our taxpayer dollars funding the research.
In fact, perhaps a better use of that money would be in studying ways to prevent liberals from mating than figuring out how frogs in Panama do.
All in all, last year our federal government engaged in wasting $50 billion of our taxpayer dollars, and what I’ve highlighted here is just the tip of the iceberg. On the whole of it, humanity would be much better served if we spent money to find out things like, why is Keith Richards still able to fog a mirror, why, after better than half a century of things getting worse in the black community are so many black voters still voting for democrats, and how many times, as a child, was AOC dropped on her head?
One more? You want one more? Okay. In 2019, $12 million of our dollars were spent by our federal government on Social Security payments to 149 dead people in Puerto Rico. 
That comes out to $80,536.91 per dead Puerto Rico Social Security recipient…or as I like to call them…democrat voters from Puerto Rico who I’m sure by now have taken on the aroma of poorly aged Serbian cheese.
Maybe the biggest waste of money is what we spend on congressional salaries.
It’s only money…right?
