@nytimes: We found huge errors in the "wall of receipts" for Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency, where the group lists what it has saved by canceling federal contracts. After The New York Times and other news organizations pointed out the errors, the team quietly removed all five of the largest savings it originally claimed. But David Fahrenthold, our investigative reporter, describes how Musk's group then added new errors, and explains what these mistakes tell us about the billionaire's secretive initiative.

DOGE's true objective is not fiscal. Musk is grabbing the government by the computers. It is a grave national security risk

The difference between $8 million and $8 billion is roughly $8 billion.

No one voted for Elon Musk. Unelected. Unaccountable. Unvetted.

So DOGE is turning out to be the most inefficient department. Crazy. Who'd've thunk a megalomaniac liar with no government experience would lie and inflate numbers. Shocking.

Calling these “errors” is so generous. It’s purposefully wrong information that inflates DOGE’s “savings” to trick the uneducated and overwhelm the rest of us with more nonsense to be parsed through

Professionals would audit and check their data before reporting it but I guess they fired all the competent people.

So they recorded something wrong, corrected it and explained what they got wrong. Somehow this is a bad thing?

The Department of Government Efficiency isn’t very efficient. I’m not sure they know what that word means.
