The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) says nearly $200 billion has been saved since it was established under the Trump administration earlier this year.



According to DOGE’s website, its activities have led to an estimated $199 billion in savings so far, roughly $1,232 per person, according to an update issued on Saturday and reviewed by The Epoch Times.
 
DOGE said 12,426 federal contracts have been terminated, worth about $53 billion, while 15,488 grants totaling $44 billion have been canceled so far.

About $140 million was saved through 384 federal lease terminations, according to the DOGE website.

And what shall be done with that $200 billion in alleged savings?  Where is it, and can I count it?
