MS: State auditor’s MOGE report claims $400 million in government waste

Source: Fox News

“On Monday, Mississippi state auditor Shad White will release a compilation of audits conducted by his office that tabulated a collective $400 million in waste over the course of his tenure. ‘In the last few weeks, we’ve jokingly started calling ourselves MOGE, the Mississippi Office of Government Efficiency, like Elon Musk’s DOGE,’ White told Fox News Digital, referring to Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency under the Trump administration. ‘We approach our work with the same attention to every penny as DOGE, and I’m happy to be Mississippi’s Musk,’ White said. While the auditor’s office cannot cut any of the wasteful spending, it alerts state lawmakers to what it discovers.” (04/14/25)
