We get it, because Trump is in office liberals think that there is no fraud, waste, or abuse in government agencies. I guess either Trump's first term or Biden is the one who fixed it all then, since Obama is on record during both of his campaigns saying how he wants to use a scalpel to combat fraud, waste, and abuse in government agencies.
It's sad that liberals come up with a new story every morning they wake up. I assume many Reps benefit from the FWA in government agencies (if liberals are wrong and there is actually FWA in our government, of course) but liberals are so busy trying to find ways to do 180s on every topic that they can't commit to a platform and then work on it.

Is there a single instance of government fraud that DOGE has revealed?

So you were perfectly ok with Trumpy's "shock awe attack" daily attacks on our civil rights our democratic institutions the U.S. constitution and the rule of law.
It's the ramped up blowback from concerned Americans that makes you sad.
Tough. Get used to it or STFU. We have 3 more years of this lunatic and his demented musings and incoherent stream of consciousness nonsense and criminal incompetence to go.
Concerned Americans will continue to be forced to respond to all of it.

Name one liberal who has said that.
Your "ipse dixit" justifies absolutely none of the damage DOGE has done to our country.

DOGE's damage to the world will last a long, long time

Idiots like you BELIEVE there is massive fraud in government because that is what Felon47 says there is while they are committing massive amounts of fraud. You believe it without any evidence whatsoever. DOGE called itself as a "fraud cutting agency" was indeed itself a fraud.
I will tell you where there is massive amounts of fraud occurring....the Dept of Defense. That is the ONLY agency that every single year cannot issue audited financial statements because their accounting system cannot say where the money is going. Yet the GOP loves shoveling endlessly increasing amounts of money into the void.
"The Pentagon on Friday failed its seventh audit in a row, with the nation's largest government agency still unable to fully account for its more than $824 billion budget, though officials stress they are making good progress toward a clean audit in 2028."
Don't worry. Felon47 wants to shovel over $1,000,000,000,000 into that void next year (A 13% INCREASE) while simultaneously gutting food and healthcare for children and seniors.
Felon47 is the fraud and waste that he whines about.

We liberals think that there is no more fraud, waste, or abuse in government agencies...
...Compared to what exists in the private sector!

HumDunce's fake Liberal is right in line with the Orange Pumpkin's fake fraud.
The reason you can't defend this is because it's indefensible. It's a stupid coding error that was blown up into Farcical Fraud.
Instead of admitting the mistake, you dum-dums have plowed ahead with this fiction.
There was no massive fraud of dead people getting checks. It was explained to you morons over and over again.
Now you've fixed a non-existent problem. Congratulations. Pick up your Participation Trophy on the way out.

@#9 ... Literally nobody has ever said there's zero. Ever. ...
Indeed.
My guess would be that the Liberals chastised in #2, without evidence, btw, would want Government fraud and waste to be identified and eliminated as much as DOGE seems to.
But it is not the end goal, it is the process to achieve that end goal that matters.
So, what did DOGE do?
It seems to have used a chain saw when a scalpel would have been more appropriate.
That's the concern I have.
The world's richest person depriving the world's poorest people of life-sustaining assistance.
How can that act be justified?
