If you want to achieve something concrete, rather than simply complaining about feminists, liberals, conservatives, women, men, "relationships", etc. now is your chance.
I will do this in the form of ink on paper. I will send another to RFK Jr. He has been a divorced father of many children. He also battled out of the pit of addiction, into which he fell after the brutal subtraction of his father from his life when he was fourteen years old. He hasn’t headlined this issue, but I don’t assume he is indifferent to it.
It appears that his attitude is not indiffernt but reticent. This is usually the case among prominent men, unfortunately. Even those who are bold and brave on other matters become simpering sissies when faced with women, especially when the women are taking legal action against them. If more public men would grasp the nettle and speak out, this would be solved.
Not to mention the billions of dollars that would be saved by reforming these programs. Shocking waste in Title IV-D/IV-E programs—$40.8B federal funds (2021-2023) into child support ($17.1B) and foster care ($23.7B), totaling $58.2B with states, are sinking fast! Slide 1 reveals a $58B black hole: a sinking ship drowning in taxpayer dollars, overlaid with cash, and 100 fading dots showing 85,000 migrant kids vanishing into chaos. We’re funding this faster than a Tesla on Ludicrous Mode—act now to stop the bleed! Check the full deck: http://bit.ly/4bpHfiL #DOGE #EfficiencyNow #WasteAlert
IV-D/IV-E programs are hemorrhaging $1.3-$2.2B yearly—Slide 2’s pie chart splits $14.4B total into $1.3-$2.2B lost to fraud (red) and $12.2-$13.1B rest (gray). Examples: Texas’ $1.5M scam, $1B+ tied to custody rigging, and bogus foster placements costing $800M-$1.2B. GAO 2024 flags $233-$521B federal fraud—DOGE, let’s audit and cut this waste now!
A human tragedy—152,269 unaccompanied migrant kids entered IV-E foster care in 2023, but 85,000 lost contact, 32,000 skip court, and 3,340 missing (<1% found)! Slide 3’s U.S. map, with 300 fading dots (291,000 unserved notices), and $100M-$150M funding trafficking, not safety, shows the crisis. DOGE, save these kids.
Slash IV-D/E waste—Slide 4’s green flowchart (Audit → Rewire → AI Track → Recover $1.3-$2.2B) cuts $4-$6B over 3 years! Audit CA ($1.2-$1.4B)/FL ($430-$550M), fix custody/removals, use AI to track migrant kids to zero vanishings, and modernize tech to save $1.3-$2.2B yearly. Build it like Starlink—fast, smart, no BS. Full plan: http://bit.ly/4bpHfiL #DOGE #TechFix #EfficiencyBoost
Victory ahead—$4-$6B recovered over 3 years, $1.3-$2.2B saved yearly, and no more missing kids! Slide 5 shows a reunited family, with a green arrow slashing waste from $58B to $50B. Next step: DOGE audit in 90 days to make government fear efficiency like it should. Act now—full deck: http://bit.ly/4bpHfiL #DOGE #EfficiencyWin #KidsSafe
Did you compile these figures and the panels? It is all plausible, but I am not sure that anyone at DOGE will understand this without more explanation, because they do not understand the dynamic driving it. If you could develop a more complete explanation for what is happening, it could be a valuable indeed. We would just need someone to stick it under the noses of Musk et al. Thanks very much.
Yes, I conducted the research with assistance from Grok 3, created by xAI. Grok helped me obtain the latest figures and directed me to relevant sources. I provided it with research I had already completed and documented at www.Votefamily.us. Grok analyzed the information I submitted and supplied me with updated data available online. This could literally save billions of dollars while also sparing children and parents from unimaginable pain and suffering. I’m confident that DOGE could uncover even more current information, potentially increasing the savings for the American people.

Subject: Billions Wasted, Kids Lost—Title IV-D and IV-E Need a Reckoning
Folks, we’re staring at a government money pit—$40.8 billion in federal cash dumped into Title IV-D and IV-E from 2021-2023, $58.2 billion with state shares. That’s $5.8 billion yearly for child support enforcement (IV-D) and $8.2 billion for foster care and adoption (IV-E) in 2023 alone. It’s supposed to help kids, but it’s a mess of waste, fraud, and abuse—nowhere clearer than with thousands of unaccompanied migrant kids flooding foster care and vanishing off the radar. Taxpayers are bleeding, families are suffering, and the system’s a black hole. Here’s the evidence—let’s fix it.
Title IV-D: Profit Over Parents
Rigged Incentives: States get 66% reimbursement plus $506 million in 2023 incentives—up to $1.98 back per dollar spent. Critics say courts push unequal custody to max child support orders, pocketing federal funds. If 20% of cases are skewed (a low guess), that’s $1 billion+ yearly in questionable payouts.
Fraud Slips Through: Fake claims and identity scams plague IV-D’s $5.8 billion. California ($580-$700 million) and Texas ($500-$600 million) are ripe for exploitation—OIG flagged “improper payments” in 2019, but no one’s counting losses.
Admin Bloat: States burn $2 billion to chase $5.8 billion. Florida’s $5 million local waste (votefamily.us) hints at hundreds of millions nationally lost to red tape.
Title IV-E: Foster Care Chaos and Missing Kids
Migrant Surge Strains System: Since 2021, 128,904 unaccompanied kids hit ORR in 2022 alone—thousands land in foster care when sponsors fail. Title IV-E shells out $20K-$30K per kid, with $8.2 billion total in 2023 (California: $1.2-$1.4 billion, Florida: $430-$550 million).
Kids Vanish: DHS says 32,000 skipped court from 2019-2023; 291,000 more never got notices. HHS lost contact with 85,000—less than 1% of 3,340 missing were found. In Culpeper, VA, 35 kids disappeared since 2017. Trafficking? Child labor? We don’t know— oversight’s AWOL.
Fraud and Waste: A Texas foster agency scammed $1.5 million in 2021. Lax vetting and admin costs (50% federal match) could waste $800 million-$1.2 billion yearly if 10% of foster placements are bogus or unnecessary.
The Big Picture
3-Year Total: $17.1 billion (IV-D) + $23.7 billion (IV-E) = $40.8 billion federal, $58.2 billion with states.
Loss Estimate: GAO’s 10-15% fraud rate across government suggests $4-$6 billion lost over three years—$1.3-$2.2 billion annually. Add untracked migrant kids, and it’s likely higher.
Red Flags
GAO 2024: $233-$521 billion in federal fraud yearly—IV-D and IV-E are prime targets.
No Follow-Up: ORR releases kids to sponsors or foster care, then shrugs—85,000 gone in two years. ICE can’t track them either.
Whistleblowers: From votefamily.us to local tip lines, insiders say profit drives decisions—courts, agencies, and traffickers cash in.
The Fix
Audit Everything: State-by-state, dollar-by-dollar—start with Florida’s $2.18-$2.65 billion (2021-2023).
Kill Profit Motives: Rewire IV-D custody and IV-E removals—focus on kids, not cash.
Track the Kids: Automate monitoring for migrant minors—291,000 unserved notices is a disgrace.
Musk, DOGE—this is a no-brainer. Billions are evaporating, kids are disappearing, and the system’s laughing at us. Let’s gut it, rebuild it, and save the money—and the kids—while we’re at it. Time to move
The possibility that children described as victims of "trafficking" are rendered fatherless and parentless with the help of the child support system is plausible and worth exploring. After all, why are so many children available to be "trafficked" in the first place?
