Elon Musk was supposed to save American taxpayers from government bloat. Instead, according to a Senate report, his DOGE initiative wasted $21.7 billion in federal funds -- nearly two and a half times what it managed to cut.

The Trumpf junta on Tuesday formally axed a program launched by billionaire former Trumpf adviser Felon Musk requiring federal employees to summarize their five workplace achievements from the prior week.
