The DOGE Department, which is headed by businessman Ilon Musk, exaggerates his successes in reducing US budget expenditures, writes The New York Times. Donald Trump, who supported him, promised to reduce the US federal dollars by two trillions by two trillions. After the election of Trump and the start of the DOGE work, the businessman reduced the target exactly twice, promising to reduce the expenditures of the budget by September 30 – by the end of the current financial year. However, on April 10, at a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers, Musk announced even more modest plans and the task of reducing state spending of $ 150 billion in the same time. According to NYT, this is 85% less than the initial DOGE goal in trillion dollars. The journalists of the publication studied the department data, including the online realist in which the department reports on work. They came to the conclusion that the declared $ 150 billion is exaggerated, and reports contain many errors and inaccuracies. “Even this figure can be too high. This is because the Mask department exaggerates its progress, including (in reports) errors of billions of dollars, calculating expenses that will not occur in the next financial year, and making assumptions about expenses that may not occur at all, ”writes Nyt. The publication is indicated by the DOGE report, which was never concluded. In this case, the government says in the article, only requested proposals, but never determined either the supplier or the price. At the same time, the Mask Department ignores this uncertainty and attributes to itself a large and specific amount for the cancellation of the contract – $ 318 million. The state efficiency of state efficiency under the leadership of Ilon Mask began working in Washington after Donald Trump’s office of the US president. The agency should stop its activities a year and a half after a year. It was predicted that the structure will increase the efficiency of the American government. According to NYT, DOGE has provoked mass dismissals in the government and a sharp reduction in humanitarian assistance around the world. Politico sources in early April reported that Trump told his environment that Musk would leave the civil service in the coming weeks. Musk called the article “Fake”. Trump publicly said that he would hold a businessman in the civil service “as much as he could.” 77 congressmen-democrats demanded that the US President dismiss the mask by May 30.
