DOGE claims against reality

The farce that was DOGE made claims of heavy savings and government efficiency. That wasn't the case in reality. The New York Times examined the claims, which were exaggerations, error-prone, and a waste of time. Mr. Musk had said that DOGE would be "the most transparent organization in government ever," and that it would bring the precision of the tech world to government. Instead, the group became opaque, with its lack of progress obscured by errors, redactions and indecipherable accounting that few private businesses would accept.
