The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has saved U.S. taxpayers $115 billion, according to the official website’s latest update.
DOGE savings have increased to $115 billion, which DOGE notes is a “combination of asset sales, contract/lease cancellations and renegotiations, fraud and improper payment deletion, grant cancellations, interest savings, programmatic changes, regulatory savings, and workforce reductions.”
This breaks down to roughly $714.29 saved per U.S. taxpayer, of which it estimates there are 161 million.
It notes on the website that the DOGE teams are working to upload all of the receipts “in a digestible and transparent manner consistent with applicable rules and regulations.”
“To get started, listed below are a subset of contract, grant, and lease cancellations, representing ~30% of total savings,” it writes, noting that the contracts currently listed on the website have been posted on fpds.gov, which can have up to a one month lag, resulting in some discrepancies between the figures posted by FDPS and figures posted by DOGE.
Eventually, DOGE states that it will update the figures in real time rather than weekly.
