My working hypothesis is that DOGE is going to claim much better victories than it actually achieves. (As with any government or pseudo-government agency; or any institution, really).
So we're going to see more of this.

I'm expecting a lot of the identified malfeasance to turn out to be sloppy record keeping errors, but we'll see.

Looks like someone got a little excited with the numbers, probably just a mistake!

Sure, but how many other mistakes are there?
The Social Security numbers, in particular, are pretty outlandish. I want to see more documentation on this stuff, but I understand that proper disclosures do take time.

Just kidding, but seriously, it’s hard to trust when things don't add up.
