When the Ministry of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, began cutting federal government spending last year, it simultaneously launched a website to show how much money the department claims it has saved for taxpayers. According to the latest review report by the US Government Accountability Office, the website's claim that it has saved taxpayers 110 billion US dollars is seriously exaggerated, and the data lacks credibility. The report shows that the Ministry of Government Efficiency was unable to provide sufficient information to verify 96% of the projects announced and the savings generated by the withdrawal of various subsidies. According to the report, although the department promised to keep the information transparent, about half of the savings were publicized and not calculated according to the statistical methods it claimed to the outside world.
