The spotlight may have moved off the DOGE since the departure of Elon Musk, but the Trump administration’s DOGE continues to post about cost cutting on its so-called “wall of receipts.” And once again, some of its claims about savings appear to be significantly overstated, according to a CBS News review.
The review of three of the largest cuts claimed so far indicates the savings from those contracts are less than 3% of what DOGE said they were.
Cutting costs is a business term that relates to profits. It really has no value in terms of government where service delivery is about public health and welfare.
Gotta pay for that ballroom and jet. Fuck you Trump
Make no mistake, they are still actively gutting the government. My agency’s IT department is getting shut down, and all the staff getting laid off. Of all the stupid fucking ideas…
Headline made me think they were admitting it.
DOGE is still a thing? I guess they realized they were making too much noise before…so now theyre shutting the hell up about dismantling the federal government. Good for them…I guess.
