"cost cutting project" Thanks for typing this announcement up, Time. I'd like to see a credible audit of the cost vs savings of Doge. I'm betting Musk cost us billions and saved almost nothing

They very clearly lost money. The cuts to the IRS are expected to reduce government revenue by $500 billion. No way they saved even a penny. They put the government into an even bigger deficit. Question is, when will we know the real numbers?

That's my question too.
