Many sources have reported that for reasons unknown (whether math miscalculations or intentional misinformation) the numbers DOGE has stated to have saved are not factual and multiple sources put the actual figure closer to 5-9 billion https://open.substack.com/pub/sharonmcmahon/p/has-doge-actually-cut-55-billion?r=941om&utm_medium=ios https://www.npr.org/2025/03/01/nx-s1-5313853/doge-savings-receipts-musk-trump
