As the Government Efficiency Department enters a new era with the departure of Elon Musk on Friday, it has caused numerous changes in recent months in the field of immigration and border security.
“ DOGE has helped transform the federal government by eliminating waste and swelling that has been ignored for years. DOGE is playing a key role in removing millions of taxpayer’s money, including contracts for illegal alien facilities that felt empty during the invasion of the Biden border and financing for hotel rooms to house the Jackson, a spokesman for the White House, told Fox News Digital on Friday in a statement.
In February, the National Security Department announced that they had rejected a $ 83 million contract for “an empty illegal alien installation during an invasion of the southern border” and $ 80 million in FEMA funding to provide accommodation for illegal immigrants in New York, such as the Roosevelt Hotel.

In March, DOGE eliminated a contract to resume the construction of walls seven kilometers from the border.
“Secretary Noem announced that we officially granted the first [DOGE] A contract approved to restart the construction of the border wall of President Trump, “DHS published on March 17.
DOGE also published in X in April that he had found that many illegal immigrants were on the FBI terror surveillance list and those with a criminal record were obtained public benefits. Four on the horror surveillance list and at 901 other “paroled aliens” were “collecting medicaid”, 41 received unemployment benefits, 22 obtained student loans from the Federal Government and 409 obtained a “clean” tax return in 2024, according to the department. The cost of tax returns was $ 751,000, Medicaid cost $ 276,000 and student loans amounted to $ 280,000, the department said.

“Under the administration of Biden, it was routine for the border patrol to admit aliens to the United States without any legal state and a minimal screening,” the site said. “ Until now, CBP has identified a 6.3K sub -attended individuals in the United States since 2023 on the FBI’s terrorist screening center’s surveillance list or with criminal records.They since then, these paroles have been completed with immediate effects. Despite having no other legal state, foreigners can be presented for work authorization and receiving social security numbers. ”
Outside of immigration and border security, DHS said that the coastal guard is expected to save $ 32.7 million through the scrap of a system of information technology that was considered “ineffective”. In a video posted in May on the collaboration between DOGE and DHS, he said that the funds will go to “front -line operations”.
“Another victory for government efficiency in DHS!” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement to Fox News Digital in April.

“ Continuing the crucial work of DOGE, the Coast Guard deleted an ineffective computer program, saving more than $ 32 million and focusing its resources where they are most needed to protect the homeland. The USCG continues to give the president’s priorities, maximizing his efficiency while achieving our borders and maritime approaches, ” added Noem.
DHS and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) also recently announced a repression provided for in the use of public housing benefits of illegal immigrants.
And last month, DHS announced that, in the spirit of combating “waste, fraud and abuse,” he ended the FEMA resistant infrastructure and communities program.

“The Bric program was another example of a firm and ineffective program. It was more concerned with political agendas than helping the North -Auros affected by natural disasters,” said Fema’s spokesman in a statement at the time. “Under the direction of Secretary Noem, we promise to ensure that the north -Americans in crisis can obtain the help and resources they need.”
Fox News contacted DHS to make additional comments. The changes occur when President Donald Trump made significant changes in politics during the first days of his second term, which has led to a strong decrease in the border meetings and a continuous repression of illegal immigrants with criminal record inside the United States.
In total, DOGE has estimated that it has saved $ 175 million so far for taxpayers.
