Nearly $1 Billion in DOGE "Savings" Vanishes Overnight

The Department of Government Efficiency's website quietly removed nearly one billion dollars in what it claims to have "saved" through canceled contracts, grants or leases this past week. In the latest example of altering figures on the agency's website, staffers at DOGE seemingly updated its claimed savings overnight on Tuesday, erasing approximately $962 million, according to NOTUS.

The largest of the disappeared cuts made this week, identified using the Wayback Machine, appears to be a $1.1 billion contract with the Acacia Center for Justice. The group provided legal services for unaccompanied immigrant children who enter the U.S. DOGE initially claimed the termination would save $367 million, but now the contract isn't listed at all.

This is the same song, verse 8 or 9.

They've vanished more than remains.

And, of course, NO ONE is accounting for the ----------------- costs.

From the article:

On several occasions, the DOGE website has been updated to get rid of claimed savings that were later found to be inaccurate. NOTUS identified more than 600 grants that had been removed from DOGE's website over the last few weeks in addition to dozens of contracts and leases. Almost all were removed during a two-hour window between midnight and 2 a.m. on Tuesday this week

It's probably hidden up Trump's keister. MAGAts will do a thorough inspection and attempt to retrieve it with their tongues.
