DOGE announces termination of 312 contracts, touts $470 million in savings

Department of Government Efficiency announced on Thursday that hundreds of contracts had been canceled in recent days, saving nearly half a billion dollars.

"Over the last 7 days, agencies have terminated 312 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $2.8B and savings of $470M, including a DoD $286k professional and management development contract for an 'entrepreneurship course at Harvard University', and a $485k USAID contract for a ‘senior general development advisor at USAID Madagascar,’" the post states.

The Trump administration's DOGE effort to root out waste, fraud, and abuse continues even though Elon Musk has stepped down from spearheading the effort.
