Episode description

“Big Balls,” Chris Coons and a “constitutional crisis.” For out-of-power Democrats and many in the press, the pace of Donald Trump’s new administration has them shouting, “It’s the end of the world as we know it!” Drill Down host Peter Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers feel fine, but as Elon Musk’s small posse of DoGE analysts, including a 19-year-old hacker who goes by the name of “Big Balls” online, continues to find large examples of fraud and wasteful spending in federal agency budgets, Eggers suggests another song by the band R.E.M. for angry Democrats: “Everybody Hurts.”
