The Department of Government Efficiency reportedly deleted its five biggest “savings” from its website’s “wall of receipts” after multiple media investigations pointed out a series of serious errors.
The “wall of receipts,” the list of government savings following the Elon Musk-led cost-cutting efforts like staff cuts and contract terminations, is the “only public ledger [DOGE] has produced to document its work,” reported The New York Times , which noted it was “riddled with mistakes.” They included major accounting errors, incorrect assumptions and outdated data; some contracts closed and claimed as savings by DOGE actually ended during the Biden administration, the newspaper noted.
