I believe 100% that there is all kinds of wasteful gov spending, from tiny little hamlets all the way to Big Brother’s house. Tons of waste. It should be easy to prove it. So, show us the money.

The funding spigot is turned off.
But these groups surely have a lot of assets stored up.
Just because their income is cut off doesn't mean they instantly run out of money.
And they're going to do anything they can with what they have left to disrupt the system that is shutting it off.

It's there if you care to look.
The data was always public, but constructed in a way to hide it in mountains of bullshit.
One of their bigger hits was canceling 10 different DEI contracts to the tune of about a billion dollars.
You can look them up easily and see they were real.

OK, so if it's truly "there if you care to look", and "you can look them up easily", point me in the right direction please. Actually, why should I even have to do the research? Why can't DOGE just provide the "receipts" to back up their claims?
You guys know damn well that I'm not being a dick; it just casts shadow on the whole "transparency" thing. When claims are made but proof is not provided, and doubters are told to "do their own research" to determine if the claims are true.....well, that's kind of bullshit from my perspective. I absolutely suspect that .gov has been pulling shenanigans with our money, but blind faith only goes so far. To Beerman's point, it should be easy to prove. I just don't want to end up with egg on my face.....

I'd also say the same to all those on the left screaming that DOGE is making people across the globe starve and die due to cutting off the funding for food, water, medicine, etc. Show me proof of the legitimate, life-or-death programs that have been cut.

If you're looking for supporting evidence for individual actions, then that is going to be found all over the place depending on what the action was.
I would say pick one that you find questionable and then Google it.
Here is an independent article on the impossibly old people collecting social security for instance. While this isn't a primary source, it doesn't seem like NPR would be in on any scheme to support DOGE if it wasn't true.
Doge gets sued to prevent Elon & crew from accessing Treasury data. What do you think would happen if he actually released information? He'd be sued for releasing confidential information. Don't you get the game that is being played? Do you really think Elon is making all this up?
Now we are talking! Wow! Imagine that....911

Copied…I came across a lawyer, Tom Renz, who actually read Trump's DOGE Executive Order and, expecting some illegal power grab, found it to be airtight. Turns out Trump and Musk didn't create anything. Obama did.
Obama created United States Digital Service (USDS) in 2014. It was meant as a bureaucratic patch job to fix the Obamacare website meltdown.
Fast forward to 2025. Trump rebrands it DOGE (United States DOGE Service). Keeps the acronym, keeps the funding, but gives it a whole new mission: Find the Receipts
Legally untouchable because it was already fully funded and operational. Trump invokes 5 USC 3161, which allows him to create temporary hiring authorities. DOGE teams get embedded inside every single federal agency. Each team consists of a lawyer, HR rep, a zoomer nerd, and an investigator. They report to DOGE, not the agency they're embedded in.
But wait, there's more! Trump invokes 44 USC Chapter 35, which governs federal IT and cybersecurity oversight. Since USDS was originally an IT oversight body, DOGE now has full access to all federal data systems. Yes, that’s right. All of them.
His executive order is written to block legal challenges. Includes language that overrides conflicting executive orders. Orders every agency to comply. Refusal means they violate presidential authority.
Congress can't defund it because it's not a new program, just a repurposed one. DOJ can't sue for overreach because Trump used existing laws exactly as written. Democrats trying to file legal challenges run into standing issues because DOGE operates within existing frameworks.
Obama literally built the perfect Administrative (read: Deep State) IT backdoor.
Trump and Musk just hacked the system and took the admin controls. Musk now has legal oversight of every major agency's internal systems. The Administrative State can't stop it without rewriting multiple federal laws.
They legally outplayed the system and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
Obama created DOGE.

This is what I see when I go to the web site.
Certainly not everything is fully documented there now, but there sure is a lot of stuff that has enough there that you can dig as deep as you want to satisfy your curiousity.
