We did find an address that's registered for this company.
Do you know where that address is?
Is there a problem with this contract?
Madam Secretary, the address is registered to a political operative.
Madam Secretary, the company is registered to a political operative in Virginia.
Do you know, just by way of example, whether this company that received $143 million in taxpayer dollars, has it ever done work for the government before?
I don't know.
I can't.
The answer is it has not.
And do you know why we know that?
Because it was incorporated eight days.
Eight days before this contract went out.
You want the American people to believe
that this is all above board, that $143 million of taxpayer money just happened to go to this one company that doesn't have a headquarters, doesn't have a website, has never done work for the federal government before, and is registered, apparently, or attached to a residence from a political operative.
And of course, one of the subcontractors of that contract, as you know, is a political firm that's tied to you back when you were governor of South Dakota.
The reason why I ask these questions is that this is taxpayer money.
money and i presume i don't know this for a fact but senator tillis noted yesterday the way in which your agency is blocking the inspector general from 11 different investigations that it is trying to conduct i don't know if this happens to be one of them i certainly hope it is because eventually the facts will become public in this regard and so look i where they had the the doge department
How do you square that concern for waste, which I share, with the fact that you have spent 220 million dollars running television advertisements that feature you prominently?
Sir, the president tasked me with getting the message out to the country and to other countries where we were seeing the invasion come from, with putting commercials out that told them that if they were in this country illegally, that they needed to leave or we would detain them and remove them and they'd not get the chance to come back to America the right way.
That has been extremely effective.
