At least 26 states have launched their own version of DOGE, but some are avoiding Elon Musk's 'chainsaw' approach.

Musk may be gone and on the outs with Trump, but on Capitol Hill, DOGE continues. The House voted to cut funding to NPR, PBS, and some foreign aid.

The House of Representatives narrowly passed a rescissions package Thursday, a centerpiece of President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency initiative, that would strip $9.4 billion in approved federal funding,

USDS, the White House team DOGE took over in January, was a flagship civic tech organization. Six months later, civic tech is figuring out what’s next.

DOGE reports federal non-defense obligations decreased by 22.4% compared to 2024, while multiple agencies including HHS, IRS and FDA start rehiring workers cut during efficiency measures.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren is urging President Trump to "reverse course" on the Department of Government Efficiency's efforts to cut government spending and agencies.

This rush job risks people’s private data, creates security gaps, and could result in catastrophic cuts to all benefits,” Senator Elizabeth Warren says of DOGE’s plans to “hastily upgrade” SSA IT systems.

At least 38 DOGE members work, or have worked, for one of Elon Musk’s companies. Meanwhile, nearly two dozen DOGE officials are making cuts to the same federal agencies that regulate the industries that employed them.

John Lawson, the newly elected Breaston councillor who has a background in finance, will be leading the county's "Doge" drive, modelled after the Department of Government Efficiency previously overseen by Elon Musk in the US.

Critical staffing cuts at the tax agency were postponed until after the filing season.

From exaggerated savings projections, to layoffs, to endangering Americans’ security and life-endangering cuts, Elon Musk’s pet project has so far been a bust.
