DOGE published a "Wall of Receipts" bragging about the savings they produced by canceling contracts.

Nearly 40% of DOGE's canceled contracts on its "Wall of Receipts" were already completed or won't save any money.

Another contract was listd as $8 billion in savings. The contract was actually for $8 million.

A number of other mistakes and miscalculations challenges DOGE's claims and questions whether DOGE is performing due diligence at canceling these contracts in the first place.
