Summary
DOGE released a “wall of receipts” claiming $55 billion in taxpayer savings, but discrepancies have emerged.
The total savings listed in its Monday release only add up to 1/3 of that figure, with some closures pre-dating DOGE’s existence from the Biden era.
Some terminated contracts show $0 in savings, and a major $8 billion item appears to be a typo.
DOGE also omits severance costs that could offset its claimed savings.
Despite promising transparency, the site’s methodology remains dubious, raising doubts about its accuracy.
Don’t forget the costs of desperately trying to rehire critical employees, rebuilding essential agencies, and the environmental and human toll for yielding oversight to corporate greed!
Give them a break. Last year at this same time the guy probably working for DOGE that came up with that report’s most stressful task was asking Olivia Stevens if she would go to high school senior prom with him. /s
“Typo” riiiiiight
Theyre not even putting in effort to hide the lies anymore? Do they feel that invincible and no one can stop them from making themselves the first trillionaires by stealing from the American public?
These guys seemingly got dates wrong, so…if The fElon Youth are bullshitting on this, too…no surprise.
