Elon Musk’s DOGE has swept into 14 federal agencies. Here’s what to know.
Washington Post via MSN ^ | 2/8/25 | Washington Post staff

Staffers and allies of Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service have fanned out across Washington in recent days, seeking access to sensitive data and disrupting operations in at least 14 government agencies in pursuit of a dramatically smaller federal government.

DOGE, which stands for the Department of Government Efficiency, has not disclosed the names of its staff. But The Washington Post has identified more than 30 people working for or closely with it by examining the internal directories of multiple agencies and interviewing numerous federal workers, virtually all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.

According to the debt clock, he has saved the American people, $72 billion dollars and hasn’t touched the core spending that actually relates to the department yet.

Listened to part of Tucker’s interview with Mike Benz, who’s been saying this stuff for longer than most. But Benz is having feelings of “sympathy for the devil”, agreeing with what is being done to expose groups like USAID but also seeing some merit in using foreign aid as a tool to accomplish OUR goals.

Tell you what, Mike. Let’s burn it all down and spend our resources to MAGA. Then after a time, maybe 10 or 20 years from now, we can rethink our role.

Well-intentioned people who want to keep a foot on both sides of the fence are going to have an uncomfortable time of it.

The article lists a number of members of the DOGE team. It is a dangerous call to arms, doxing effort by the Washington Post. In first with, “blood on their (WaPo) hands.”

You’re going to love this. The Dems might delay but they are powerless to stop this juggernaut.

I hope DOGE gets a ton of info on Obama.....



Before being appointed by Biden to a top Treasury job, sinister
Nigerian immigrant Adewale Adeyemo was an Obama insider.
<><>He was Director of the National Economic Council under Obama
<><>he was also a Sr Advisor, the Former Chief of Staff, for Blackrock.
<><>he oversaw $6 trillion in Treasury payment approvals
<><>He directed that no US Treasury payments be disapproved, even to international terrorists
<><>he abruptly quit, and refused to turn in documents chronicling his activities
<><>he had No apparent congressional oversight
<><>he was previously the president of the Obama foundation.
<><>did he illegally transfer Treasury monies to the Obama foundation?
<><>is this the reason why Obama will not disclose his foundation finances?

Thanks to Musk, we’re going to find out how MUCH the Treasury Department stole from the American taxpayers. People are going to prison. Biden really tried hard to destroy our country and he got away with it....makes you wonder why he wasn’t impeached?

Funny the RAT Walkers haven’t brought up the guy who can’t a visa to go to Italy because of all of the USAID freeloaders and thieves who have been fired. The poor guy’s “grandmother” is expected to croak any day now and he’s afraid he’s going to miss the reading of the will. Just saw a jerk on FOX trying to sell that millions of foreign babies are dying from aids because the 13,000 workers who would have given them an AIDS shot got fired. I wish he cared that much about the millions of American babies murdered in our abortion clinics.
