The federal government isn't operating at maximum efficiency, says Rep. Pat Fallon
Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas, discusses DOGE cuts and Bill Gates' reported feud with Elon Musk on 'The Bottom Line.'
The Department of Government Efficiency announced in a Monday post on X that agencies had recently nixed "111 wasteful contracts," resulting in millions of dollars in savings.
"Great work by agencies over the last three days terminating 111 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $790M and savings of $263M," the post on X noted, before going on to give a couple of examples.
The post indicates the canceled contracts included $21,000 for an executive coaching program for the Energy Department and $480,000 for U.S. Agency for Global Media "FM operations and maintenance" in Lusaka, Zambia.
