NASA employees want Elon Musk to “clean house” at the agency after it has blown millions into different Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts under the Biden-Harris administration. This comes after Musk as well as Vivek Ramaswamy have been appointed by President-elect Donald Trump to run the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
According to the Daily Mail, expenditure reports showed millions of dollars being shelled out by NASA in grants for programs related to DEI. $2 million was given to LMI Consulting in order for NASA to “embark on a venture to incorporate and deeply engrain diversity, inclusion, equity and accessibility in the culture and business.”
Additionally, $3 million went to consulting company Booze Allen Hamilton meant to bolster the “office of diversity and equal opportunity DEI data analytic specialty” at NASA. $7 million more was shelled out to several “minority-serving institutions.”
Staffers at the agency dedicated to exploring outer space for the US government have voiced concerns over what they labeled as “wasteful spending” going to DEI. Software engineer Kyle Sorensen also told the outlet that he is hoping Musk will “clean house” when he gets into his position in the Trump administration.
One former NASA employee told the outlet, “[DEI is] destroying America’s ability to compete with China in space because the Biden-Harris administration will only fund programs that feature it.” NASA is usually given a budget of around $20 billion each year. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
