The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has made is mark so far, to the tune of $48.3 billion, according to the new website that tracks DOGE’s progress.
Polymarket.com launched a site so you can track every red cent that DOGE redirects from what they’re calling “government waste.”
DOGE announced on Friday that it’s going to target bigger government agencies like the Pentagon, in addition to the Department of Education and USAID.
As DOGE continues its efforts to downsize government, so do the efforts to slow it down in the courts. 14 Democratic attorneys general have filed a lawsuit arguing that Musk and DOGE’s seemingly unchecked power is unconstitutional.
Amid various legal challenges, Musk’s team is expected to address the Pentagon soon, a move welcomed by new Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
“I hope to welcome Elon to the Pentagon very soon and his team working in collaboration with us,” Pete Hegseth said. “There are waste redundancies and head counts and headquarters that need to be addressed. There’s just no doubt.”
