Democrats at the state level have seen some success in getting the courts to stop Musk’s team from acquiring access to personal and private information about Americans stored by various federal agencies impacted by the DOGE cost-cutting crusade.
The DOGE efforts across government have resulted in whole agencies, including the Department of Education, United States Agency for International Development and others, being locked and shuttered as Musk’s team attempts to radically transform them or close them down completely.
Republicans have largely reacted with glee, identifying individual federal programs (real or otherwise) for ridicule as the Trump administration looks to shatter the U.S.’s foreign aid sphere and so many other parts of the federal government.
The president said in an interview airing Sunday along with the Super Bowl that he expected to find “hundreds of billions of dollars” in waste, fraud and other misuse as the Musk team’s efforts continue.
She went on to be questioned by Bash about whether this represented an about-face by MAGA-world, which had erupted with rage against Hillary Clinton in 2016 for housing State Department emails on a private server at her home during Clinton’s time as secretary of State.
