$1.9 billion of HUD money was just recovered after being misplaced during the Biden administration due to a broken process. These funds were earmarked for the administration of financial services, but were no longer needed. @SecretaryTurner and @DOGE worked together to fix the issue and de-obligated the funds which are now available for other use by the Treasury.

@DOGE@usedgov IT WAS A PACKAGE DEAL!
Trump, Musk, and RFK Jr. was a package deal that voters voted for. They voted for Musk. They voted for RFK Jr.! They voted for Trump.
That’s what voters wanted. It’s not rocket science.
