The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) provided an update to one of the biggest scams uncovered by Elon Musk’s team on Wednesday evening.
DOGE says it has saved approximately $105 billion in a “combination of asset sales, contract/lease cancellations and renegotiations, fraud and improper payment deletion, grant cancellations, interest savings,” and other workforce reductions.
The Democrats are angry that DOGE is saving American taxpayers money, so they devised a scheme to stop Elon Musk and his team.
There are currently nearly a dozen lawsuits challenging DOGE over its authority, data access, and privacy laws.
There is also a secret resistance agreement between 14 states to conduct coordinated lawfare against DOGE and Elon Musk.
DOGE recently announced that it had already deactivated 200,000 government credit cards in 16 agencies.
However, there are a total of 4.6 million active credit cards/accounts!
On Wednesday night DOGE said the program to audit unused/unneeded credit cards has been expanded to 32 agencies!
“After 10 weeks, more than 500K cards have been de-activated,” DOGE said.
In March, Elon Musk said DOGE “found twice as many credit cards as there are humans. And these are cards with $10,000 per month limits! That’s a lot of money!”
“What’s the waste-to-fraud ratio? In my opinion, it’s 80% waste, 20% fraud,” Elon Musk said.
WATCH:
WELL DONE ELON AND DOGE.
GREAT JOB FOR AMERICA !!!!
WELL DONE ELON AND DOGE.

Maybe...just maybe...government (at all levels) should screen potential employees for sociopathy. The government appears to be a gathering place for sociopaths.
Is this a Deep State Revolution trying to take over?
Apparently they already have...............
Nice! Here, you’d qualify for antique tags.
2004 / 2500, here with <90K.
Unfortunately, gas.
BEST of all brands I’ve owned (GM, Ford, Chevy)
Florida antique tags are for vehicles 30+ years old................
<>don’t forget “Congress” - which I remember learning somewhere in school was supposed to have oversight powers.<>
We do not hate Congress enough.
I’ve asked that for years.
IGs are wasted money.
Unfortunately the biggest DOGE haters are Republican congressmen.
They won’t codify anything.
They are also grifters.
