In January, President Trump announced the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), aiming to enhance federal government performance. Led by a team connected to Elon Musk, the initiative saw the dismissal of thousands of federal employees and significant budget cuts. While Musk claimed progress in identifying waste, reality saw initial savings targets drastically lowered from $2 trillion to $150 billion. With 100 days into Trump's second term, DOGE's effectiveness remains questionable, revealing operational issues and Trump's protective stance on certain expenditures such as Social Security.
Despite ambitious claims of efficiency and savings, President Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has struggled to meet its goals, delivering far less than promised.
DOGE, initially positioned to combat waste in the federal government, has seen its savings goal shrink from $2 trillion to $150 billion amid various operational challenges.
