The article discusses the ongoing debate within federal agencies regarding how to handle Elon Musk's email asking employees to report their weekly accomplishments. While some agencies encouraged responses, such as the Social Security Administration, the Department of Defense advised employees to hold off, leading to confusion in Washington. This situation highlights the mixed responses to DOGE initiatives, including unexpected merchandise like DOGE membership cards linked to political operations. Commentary from corporate figures, such as Jamie Dimon, showcases mixed feelings about the potential of DOGE for effective government.
Agencies differed on their recommendations to employees before the deadline, which was yesterday at 11:59 p.m. The deadline may have passed - but conflicting guidance persists.
Of course, it wouldn't be a DOGE mandate without getting the lawyers involved.
President Donald Trump's political operation is actually selling DOGE membership cards. For only a $47 donation, you can be the proud owner of a black metal card that says "Trump DOGE member."
Jamie Dimon is hopeful DOGE will be successful. "More effective government - more efficient government - isn't bad. It's actually a good thing."
