Doge Disbanded Early Amidst Allegations of Corruption and Data Theft
The Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), established by executive order, has reportedly been dissolved, ending its mission of reforming federal agencies and reducing the workforce, despite its contract extending until July 2026. While officials, including Elon Musk, claimed the department aimed for transparency, it faced criticism for a lack of public accounting and questionable spending cuts. Following internal turmoil, including the departure of key figures and a reported feud, Doge’s responsibilities have been absorbed by other federal offices, as evidenced by a move within the OPM. Key personnel, including the acting administrator, have transitioned to other government roles, including a shift to launching websites.
