That’s the amount of excessive, wasteful spending we found in Miami-Dade County.

The total of wasteful spending we’ve found now sits at $1.5B over 9 local governments.

While I continue to be astounded by the level of fiscal insanity and over-taxing we’re seeing at the local level, Miami-Dade is the worst offender.

They’ve also hired over 2,400 NEW full time employees (not law enforcement or fire) over the last 5 years growing government at an astounding pace.

The county residents deserve a break from the big government enterprise.

Tallahassee Tells Broward County It’s DOGE Time

Florida CFO Blaise Ingoglia.

He may have been sworn into office today, but new Florida Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia already made his presence known in Broward County. Ingoglia and the Florida Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) sent a letter to Broward County Mayor Beam Furr on Monday detailing the State’s plan to investigate spending. News of the DOGE letters was first reported on X by E.W. Scripps reporter Forrest Saunders. One letter was sent to Broward County, another to the City of Gainesville.

Governor Ron DeSantis has repeatedly questioned the possible misuse of Broward County taxpayers’ money.

“Governor DeSantis has charged us, through Florida’s DOGE effort, to identify and report on this type of excessive spending at the county and municipal level,” Ingoglia wrote.

On July 11, 2025, the State requested information “linking Broward County‘s sources of revenue to its expenditures.” Apparently, DOGE discovered more information was needed.

Ingoglia and DOGE wants access to County premises, data systems, personnel for two days at the end of month.

DOGE states Broward County may face financial penalties if they fail to comply.
