DOGE continues to publish misleading or inaccurate claims on its "Wall of Receipts"
CBSN
The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has added a new batch of entries to what it calls its "Wall of Receipts," touting purported savings in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Yet many of these claimed cuts appear to be misleading, and the potential for actual savings continues to be uncertain.
According to the running tally on its website, DOGE claims it has saved American taxpayers a total of $170 billion. However, only $70.9 billion is itemized, and many of those entries continue to raise serious doubts about their accuracy.
Some have expressed skepticism, including Nat Malkus, a senior fellow at the conservative-leaning American Enterprise Institute. Malkus, who has been tracking DOGE's work, said his review indicates the savings is more likely to be around $80 billion.
