DOGE claimed they had saved $8 billion by slashing one contract. The actual number was $8 million

DOGE, upon further inspection, appears to have overstated the value of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency contract



DOGE, Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, claimed to have saved $8 billion by canceling a contract, but the actual amount saved was $8 million. The contract, originally valued at $8 billion, was later corrected to $8 million in the Federal Procurement Data System. Bloomberg reported the discrepancy, and the DOGE website initially listed the contract as an $8 billion saving. The issue has drawn criticism, with some accusing DOGE's database of containing errors and falsehoods.
