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.
