The Obama administration has spent much of the past few weeks sounding the alarm about the impact of sequestration, but it appears it may have overreached, warning of cuts to a federal agency that no longer exists.

Reason’s Mike Riggs, who discovered the error, asks, “Might there be other errors in the OMB’s report?”
Below is the Department of Justice’s announcement of the NDIC’s closing.
