Boeing was the biggest winner snagging a total of $4.8 billion in government funds to develop, build, test, and get its Starliner spacecraft into orbit by 2017.
They are yet to deliver.

Meanwhile, SpaceX got paid only $2.8 Billion for crew dragon, which they successfully developed and which has been delivering astronauts to the ISS since when President Trump was in power.

I’ve seen Boeing blow through that much and deliver nothing. What was a $100 billion annual revenue company cares nothing about a $1 billion program.
