Elon Musk's DOGE caught inflating its success again as it deletes $4 billion from its 'wall of receipts': Key points

In its latest embarrassment, Elon Musk's DOGE has stealthily expunged all of the five largest items on the “wall of receipts” after the much-vaunted “savings” were revealed. DOGE is currently claiming it has succeeded in lopping $65bn from federal spending, a sharp rise from its earlier figure of $55bn. Yet the itemized savings listed on the “wall of receipts” have plummeted since the deletions from $16.6bn to $9.6bn.
