Amber Hart, the co-founder of a research and advisory firm, the Pulse, that specializes in federal contracting, said it’s simply not possible to create a real-time accounting of contract savings with the data the team has used — as DOGE has promised on its website.

“There’s no way for them to make it possible unless they completely overhaul the way the data is reported — which would be awesome,” she said. “I would absolutely love for them to break that. They’re breaking the wrong things.”

Whether "they're breaking the wrong things" or "hurting the wrong people," this is what you get when you vote narcissistic idiots who portray themselves as geniuses with inscrutable knowledge of how to fix things at zero cost. It always, always comes back to hurting the poor and minorities to benefit the wealthy. Or at least hurting the out-groups to benefit the in-group. And you are never in the in-group.
