More proof that Americans are morons, or just more of breitbart breitbarting? Never mind, probably both.

Sorry, Jan in HR must have missed you when he was sending out the memos.

But among the 1,100-plus contracts purportedly canceled, POLITICO found:

  • Contracts that had not yet been awarded
  • Instances where a single pot of money is listed multiple times — tripling or quadrupling the amount of savings claimed
  • Purchase agreements that have no record of being canceled, but were instead stripped of language related to diversity, equity and inclusion
  • Contract savings identified by DOGE that do not match with records they refer to in the Federal Procurement Data System
  • Contracts where the underlying document is for an entirely different contract
