In this week’s episode of The Chazz Palminteri Show, I’m talking about something that just doesn’t make sense—government spending and corruption. As a taxpayer, I want to know where our money is going—and what I found is mind-blowing. From wasteful spending to politicians getting rich on government salaries, it’s time to ask some real questions.
Here’s what I talk about:
✅ $20 million for an Iraqi Sesame Street—seriously?
✅ $1.5 million to study shrimp running on a treadmill 🦐
✅ NYC spending $59 million to house illegal migrants in luxury hotels
✅ A government office literally operating out of a cave 🤯
✅ A toilet that costs half a million dollars—and it can text you?! 🚽📱
✅ Trillions of dollars in untracked payments from the government
✅ Why veterans, police, and first responders deserve better
✅ How politicians on government salaries end up worth hundreds of millions
I’m not a Republican. I’m not a Democrat. I’m an independent thinker—and I want to know why nobody is talking about where our tax dollars are really going.
