Someone ELI5 how DOGE can cut funding on a State project? Did the US govt contribute or promise funds? If so, then by all means stop that funding. But the Federal govt can't stop State projects just because of budget overruns.
I think it is a completely stupid idea for that train, but if the morons in charge in CA want to do it then they can until the citizens of CA pick up torches and pitchforks.
I'm sure the DS bureaucrats just stalled and never demanded that Calif give the money back and then Trump's term ended and the money was never returned.

The Feds have handed corrupt officials in Commiefornia billions of dollars for this disaster of a project.
The Feds have every right to audit any monies given for the project.
Trump in 2019 cancelled almost 1 billion dollars of federal funding and said CA owes the feds 3.5 billion for money they wasted on the project. I don't know whatever became of that. https://www.courthousenews.com/feds-cancel-nearly-1-billion-for-california-high-speed-train/
