It is clear from the information you provide that fraud and abuse are not the DOGE target. It is clearly retribution against enemies and dismantling oversight capability to make on-ramps for oligarch exploitations. Trump anticipates kickbacks from Elon on Federal contracts. I believe Musk has tainted every bid he is pursuing. That impacts every single Federal BID that Musk currently has in progress, and also every potential future bid. At issue is non-public insider information. You cannot bid if you hold insider information, or if the appearance is the same.
Every bidder competing against Musk has recourse outside of the bid-letting agency. Jeff Bezos is being handed this smoking gun. When a bidder suspects there will be an unfair bias in the agency, they can bypass GAO and file in federal court to disqualify Musk, a Musk company, or a Musk team (subcontract or joint venture).
Here is the kicker. Federal court judges will decide on the insider information issue, not the Executive Branch employees. Thus undue influence and strong arming from the Trump administration will be useless.
What I foresee is no more Federal contracts for Musk. He has screwed the pooch. I don’t even see how he can be awarded a sole source extension to an existing contract. I see $ for lawyers. Jeff Bezos has a strong protest play here.
Do you understand that the Federal courts have zero enforcement power? The coup is complete and we just don't want to admit that to ourselves. Once we accept reality we can then consider real and effective actions to take. For instance a mass canceling of Amazon Prime memberships or all of us taking on true compassion rather than just talking about it by going vegan.
Courts can order appearances. They can impose daily fines for non compliance. The adjunct to your path seems to be give up. There is no coup, only attempts to that end. The court have their authority and they are not yet being ignored. Some 80 lawsuits are filed.
Cancel your Prime account, Facebook, X, Tik Tok, all of it. It's only serving the powerful savages that have been in charge for years. Let's admit that now the true state of Democracy has come to light. Let's imagine a better World. Let's start living it, in spite of those James Bond villains in charge.
Cool your jets on the compassion thing. I have been basically vegan for 51 years. I did it for compassion reasons, not diet. The topic was the actions, by courts or competing private parties, to dis-empower Muck. The coup is ongoing. How would it ever be complete until all of us are under the siege of militias or posse comitatus. Many of us saw this comping years ago, so we are not in fantasyland. And if you cancel a Prime (I do not have an account) by the millions, then many thousands of workers will be laid off and certain important supplies might not arrive. I like the scenario of CEO psychopaths eating each other in court, in the market, on the razzle dazzle pages.
Does Bezos have the guts to go against Musk/Trump? I doubt it. He owns Washington Post and they weren't allowed to endorse Harris for POTUS. He's gutless.

Coercive contempt...double each fine for each subsequent violation... .
to infinity.
