The last of the top five disappeared early Tuesday morning from DOGE's website, and the Times reported that some of the new canceled contracts added this week appear to contain the same types of errors that plagued the original top five, which included a reported $8 billion cut at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, $655 million cut at the U.S. Agency for International Development and $232 million at the Social Security Administration.
▪️ICE's entire budget is about $8 billion, and the contract in question was worth $8 million, but DOGE seemed to rely on an earlier, erroneous entry in a federal contracting database as its metric for savings.
▪️DOGE employees also erroneously counted a single cut three times in an apparent misunderstanding of how government contracts sometimes have "ceiling values" that are much higher than what is actually spent.
▪️Musk's organization also seems to have mistakenly believed that SSA had canceled a massive information technology contract, but it had only ended a $560,000 portion of that project.
Also, he looks like Mona Lisa smelling shit in that pic.
