The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said more than 200,000 government credit cards linked to a handful of federal agencies were canceled after an audit showed they were not being used.

Last month, DOGE said in a statement that it found more than 4.6 million government credit cards that accounted for more than 90 million unique transactions amounting to more than $40 billion. On Monday evening, the Elon Musk-led agency said that more than 200,000 were deactivated.
