And the total amount they've identified and formally requested to cut is only $9.4 billion? And Republicans continue to try to scam their constituents and say they did such a great job find waste fraud and abuse? Are you kidding me? Talk about pathetic.

And how much did the government have to spend on DOGE staff, etc.? I'm sure that cut into that "savings" by a good amount. Meanwhile, actual verified federal spending during Trump's tenure has continued to grow every month. And people continue to believe these liars?
