Summary
DOGE has claimed billions in savings by canceling contracts, but many were blanket purchase agreements (BPAs), which set negotiated rates for potential future purchases rather than actual spending.
Canceling BPAs does not save money and may hinder efficiency, as agencies must redo procurement work.
DOGE’s claims face growing scrutiny, with reports showing 40% of cuts yield no savings.
Meanwhile, lawsuits question the agency’s legality, and confusion remains over its leadership, with Trump insisting Elon Musk is in charge.
I bet Elon is a saboteur working for a foreign entity.
No need to look for foreign scapegoats when it’s obvious that the very much local elites are fully into what’s being done.
Unwittingly (or so I hope) you’re repeating the traditional Fascist propaganda element of “Blame the Outside Enemy”, similarly to how the MAGAs blame immigrants.
Saboteur yes, but for him and his billionaire buddies. Destroy public service, tell people that public service is shit and needs to be privatized, profit.
No war but class war, money doesn’t know borders.
