I can point to people it killed, so that’s something.
By Hugh Cameron – U.S. News Reporter:
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been quietly dissolved ahead of schedule, having achieved—even by its own estimates—only a fraction of the savings it initially sought.
Last week, Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), told Reuters that DOGE „doesn’t exist“ and will no longer function as a „centralized entity,“ despite the fact that eight months remain on the 18-month agenda outlined by the White House on January 20.

Russian interests
Somehow all that cost cutting increased our national debt at the fastest rate ever for the first year of a presidency (and the year isn’t over..)
What happened to the DOGE checks they promised to Americans?
Elon’s ass from all the investigations into his fraud.
Elon’s profits. Plain and simple.
It saved Elmo investigations against him.
Files of the public’s personal information.
It cost more than it saved thanks to the fire/rehiring.
The saving that were reportedly found were the same canceled programs and projects from past administrations, including his own, Obama’s and Bush Jr.
It saved Elon Musk a bit of money too small for him to even notice. It cost America billions in real dollars and opportunity costs
It saved negative billions of dollars and also resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people who abruptly had aid cut off
More like what did it cost? This doesn’t include only monetary loss, but time and resource cost to figure out everything they did, and everything they stole.
I hate these articles. Stop asking questions you already know the answer to and just inform people of what happened. If you don’t know an answer, fine, ask away.
>having achieved—even by its own estimates—only a fraction of the savings it initially sought.
Yea because the people who actually joined believing in that false mission quickly found out there wasn’t as much waste and incompetence as they thought. I forget his name but remember the guy who got fired abruptly because he told the media how well things were actually going in the VA?
It saved all of our SSNs, bank accounts, tax data, and interactions with the govt
on USB drives by a team of 20 year olds
to play with as they feed it into AI engines
and of course feed it to Palantir or their own surveillance nightmare projects.
Elon made out like a bandit, though.
He and his team got access to personal data of Americans through the IRS and Social Security files, and who knows what other federal databases.
Nothing… it just punished the right people in their eyes. This was nothing more than a way to see how cruel they could be.
Federal employees lost their jobs and the ones who didn’t had a hostile, worrisome work environment because of doge, which is not condusive to providing effecient work. The whole thing was cruel from that point of view alone.
And half the country thought it was hilarious.
it saved all private citizen data and exported it to the private companies behind our burgeoning surveilance state
It did save us citizens anything. They stole data and will continue to do so for years.
It concealed the wholesale theft of Americans personal information and embedded malware that rubber stamps contracts to oligarchs, specifically Elon.
Elon from being prosecuted by the SEC?
saved elon from investigations. gave us biggest data data breach in human history
