The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, has announced the cancellation of 148 additional federal contracts deemed wasteful, totaling $420 million in value.
The announcement was made late Monday via the department’s official X (formerly Twitter) account. Among the scrapped contracts is a $143,000 agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for the “potency monitoring of confiscated marijuana samples.”
