Summary
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s new “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) began recruiting “high-IQ small-government revolutionaries” willing to work 80+ hours per week with no pay to help slash federal spending.
Appointed by President-elect Donald Trump, the panel is tasked with recommending spending cuts, regulatory rollbacks, and agency restructuring by July 4, 2026.
Musk and Ramaswamy advocate for drastic measures, including cutting grants to nonprofits and potential mass layoffs.
Can this department kick it off by eliminating itself, since it’s a wish.com version of https://www.gao.gov/
It’s really great that his government efficiency department is in fact duplicative. An excellent microcosm
Now all that’s left is for the GAO to audit DOGE and discover fraud.
Like when the FBI investigated Trump and found corruption and therefore he was removed from ever running in our elections?
