The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by entrepreneur Elon Musk, has reported $105 billion in spending reductions during the first six weeks of the Trump administration.
DOGE, and Musk in particular, have drawn applause from President Donald Trump but criticism from others. Critics have cited concerns about the security of government data and the legality of some of the administration’s actions, such as the shuttering of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the dismissal of thousands of federal employees.
